Flooring & Tile
Though often part of a larger renovation, new flooring or tile can make a huge impact all on its own. And with Vinyl Plank Flooring, Laminate, Tile, Carpet, & Hardwood, the choices are better and more affordable than ever before. But more choice doesn’t always make things easier. Our flooring experts at J&H complete ongoing training on all the new products and installation methods.

No Pressure!
Are you concerned that you’ll start talking with our designers and installation team only to find out the renovation is bigger than you budgeted for? Listen, you might need more time to budget for a full renovation, but that doesn’t mean you can’t consider a few upgrades in the meantime. The professionals in our Install Department are trained to be able to give you options, from that full renovation with custom tiled shower and heated floors, to a simple faucet swap. It all starts with a conversation.
