Estimates, Pricing, and Financing
How do I get a quote or estimate?
Project costs vary based on the material you choose, what’s being removed, the type of project, and your goals for the space. For a rough idea, you can visit our pricing page or call us with your project details, and we’ll happily provide a ballpark estimate. When you’re ready for exact numbers, we’ll set up a free, no-obligation in-home measure. Our measure technician brings samples so you can see your top choices in your own lighting, then we’ll give you a precise quote.
What’s included in my estimate?
Our pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees or surprise charges. Your estimate covers all materials, labor, and standard transitions between rooms, along with a detailed plan showing estimated dates and how long your project will take.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We offer flexible financing through Synchrony to help spread the cost of your project over time. Visit our financing page or give us a call to learn more.
Will you install flooring I bought?
No. We only install materials from Get Floored, and we’re unable to warranty material purchased from elsewhere. When you buy through us, one team stands behind both your product and your installation.

What’s the difference between LVP and laminate?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a waterproof flooring that varies in thickness, wear layer, detail, and price. It’s a great choice if you’re worried about water, or if you want the look of a wood hardwood floor without the cost. Traditional laminate has a compressed core that is very scratch-resistant, making it a hardy, cost-effective alternative to hardwood or tile. For a deeper side-by-side, read our guide to LVP vs. laminate.
Is laminate cheaper than LVP?
Not always. An affordable laminate and an average-priced LVP often end up at a similar price once underlayment is added. The exception is thicker, high-end LVP. Newer waterproof laminates also need additional prep to perform as advertised, which adds to the total cost.
What should I look for in carpet for living room spaces?
Start with how you live. Homes with pets, kids, or sandy beach traffic usually do best with stain-resistant fibers and a denser, lower pile, while quieter households can put plush comfort first. Our showroom carries hundreds of Shaw Floors and Southwind carpet options you can touch and compare side by side. Our guide to choosing carpet based on your lifestyle walks through the options.
What flooring works best in a coastal home?
Humidity, sand, and water are the big factors on the Grand Strand. Waterproof luxury vinyl flooring shrugs off sandy feet, spills, and heavy traffic, which makes it a favorite for beachfront homes. Tile is naturally water-resistant and extremely durable. If you love real wood, engineered hardwood offers more stability against coastal humidity than solid hardwood. We’ll help you match the right material to how you use each room.
What don’t you offer?
To save you time, here’s what we don’t do: sheet vinyl, total subfloor replacement, and epoxy flooring. If your project calls for one of these, we’re glad to point you in the right direction.
Tile and Shower Remodels
What are my options for a bathroom shower remodel?
We offer two main paths. A custom tile shower gives you complete design freedom, with ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, and glass mosaic tile from Emser, MSI Flooring, and MIR Mosaic, plus built-in niches, shelving, and corner seats. For a faster option, the Onyx Collection is a groutless shower system you can customize to match your vanity, and it typically installs in two to three days rather than the week or more a custom tile shower takes. Browse our shower remodel ideas and recent projects for inspiration.
How much does a custom tile shower cost?
It depends on the size of your shower, the tile you choose, and features like niches, benches, and glass. Our guide on how to budget for a custom tile shower breaks down what drives the price. Within three days of measuring your space, you’ll receive a detailed estimate that includes waterproofing, materials, and finishing touches.
Scheduling and Timelines
How soon can you schedule my installation?
Installations are scheduled first come, first served. Once your material arrives at our warehouse, we inspect it for damage or defects, then call to get you on the schedule. We typically book about two weeks out for LVP, hardwood, laminate, and carpet, and one to two months out for tile work and shower remodels. If we’re booking more than a month out in your area, we’ll hold your preferred installation date once we receive your down payment. Planning ahead? We can also schedule your installation in advance.
How long does it take to get my material?
Material usually arrives from the manufacturer within five to nine business days. If there’s a back order or you’re on a tight timeline, we’ll check with the manufacturer for an ETA before you finalize your selection.
Do you have flooring in stock?
Most of our flooring is special-ordered to match your exact selection. The exception is our trade program, where we stock several popular LVP colors for same-day pickup. Now and then, we also have a manufacturer mis-order on hand that we can offer, so it never hurts to ask.
How long will my installation take?
Most residential LVP projects are finished in one to two days. Onyx showers typically take two to three days, while custom tile showers take a week or more. You’ll get estimated dates and a timeline with your quote, and our team shows up on time (barring the occasional hurricane).
Preparing for Installation
Do you move furniture before installation?
Yes. We move large furniture like beds, tables, dressers, and chairs. We ask that you move personal items and unplug electronics beforehand. We don’t move specialty items such as pianos, pool tables, safes, fish tanks, or grandfather clocks, so we recommend a professional moving company for those.
Will installation be dusty?
No installation is completely dust-free, especially when we’re removing tile or hardwood, but our installers work hard to keep dust down. If you have specific concerns, let us know ahead of time and we’ll address them during prep.
Can I save money by installing over my existing floor?
It depends. You cannot install a new hard surface over hardwood, since we’ve seen firsthand the mold that builds up between layers, leading to health issues and a redo. You can go over tile, but we’ll skim-coat and fill the grout lines first, and we’ll check that the appliances, doors, and baseboards still work with the added height.
After Installation
How do I care for my new floors after installation?
We’re always happy to share maintenance tips and the right cleaning products for your specific flooring or tile. You’ll also find care guides on our blog for luxury vinyl plank, carpet, and tile in coastal homes.
Do you clean up after the project?
Our installers clean up their work area, but we don’t provide a professional cleaning service at the end of a project. We recommend hiring a cleaner you’ve vetted yourself and waiting about a week after installation so any dust has time to settle. Changing your air filters afterward helps, too.
What if something goes wrong after installation?
We stand behind our work. We follow up after every installation to make sure everything meets your expectations, and if an issue comes up, like a carpet seam separating, we’ll come back and make it right.
For Contractors and Trade Pros
Do you offer contractor pricing?
Yes. Installers, builders, general contractors, property managers, and handymen can get trade pricing on 10 best-selling LVP colors, stocked in our Myrtle Beach warehouse for same-day pickup. We also offer referral perks for contractors who send clients to our showroom for custom projects. Learn more about our in-stock LVP wholesale program.
