High-Quality Flooring Options for Your Home
The right flooring sets the tone for each one of your room’s style and comfort. Before installation, Future Generation Construction can guide you in choosing the perfect flooring style and type for your home’s flooring. From the perfect flooring for your living room to waterproof solutions for kitchens and bathrooms, we can install any kind of flooring. Get ready to spend more time relaxing, entertaining, and creating more memories your new home flooring.
Solid & Engineered Hardwood
Solid hardwood is a great choice to choose if you are looking for a significant increase in the value of your home. Hardwood flooring is known to be durable and last a very long time, while engineered hardwood provides protection against moisture and temperature changes which is perfect for California’s climate.
Hardwood flooring and engineered hardwood typically come in oak and maple, which will add a more “homely” feeling to your house in our opinion.
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)
Luxury Vinyl Plank offers you a 100% waterproof option that mimics the “real” look and feel of wood. LVP has a click-and-lock system which makes installation a lot easier compared to other options for your home flooring installation project.
For busy households with kids and pets, LVP is a perfect option because it resists scratches, spills, and dents with minimal upkeep.
Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring is going to be the most affordable option outside of carpet for your new home flooring. It is durable and isn’t hard to clean up. The issue with Laminate flooring is it’s not moisture-proof and will cause an issue with your Sacramento home’s flooring due to constant weather changes.
This will be a decent option for your living room, but we highly caution using laminate flooring inside your kitchen or bathroom.
Carpet
Having carpet installed would be the cheapest option, but it is a short term solution. You are looking at around $2-$6 per square foot and can be more expensive depending on the type of carpet you want installed by us. You will also have to consider the padding being installed and the remnant removal before carpet installation can take place.
Ultimately, if you are on a budget, carpet would be the best bet for your home flooring project in Sacramento.

Our Home Flooring Installation Process
Step 1: Design Consultation & Material Selection
Our process starts with a free meeting at your home. A design expert will bring different flooring samples so you can see how they look in your space and lighting.
We’ll help you pick the perfect flooring that fits your needs, style, and budget.
Step 2: In-Home Measurement & Project Planning
After you pick your flooring, our specialist will visit to take exact measurements. During this visit, we check your subfloor’s condition, plan for any transitions between rooms, and create a detailed project plan.
You’ll receive a clear quote with no hidden costs and a timeline for completion.
Step 3: Subfloor Prep & Professional Installation
Our installation team handles everything with care. We move furniture, remove the old flooring, and prepare the subfloor. This step is important for a smooth, lasting finish.
We then install your new floors using the best techniques and materials.

We finish the job by installing baseboards, trim, and transition pieces for a clean, complete look. After a thorough cleanup, we walk through the space with you.
We review the finished work together, answer any questions, and make sure every detail meets our standards and your satisfaction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use the same flooring throughout my entire house?
While using consistent flooring throughout your Sacramento home creates a seamless, open feel that can make spaces appear larger, it’s not always practical for every situation. We typically recommend using the same flooring in connected living spaces (living room, dining room, hallways) to create visual flow. However, bedrooms often benefit from carpet for comfort and sound absorption, while kitchens and bathrooms require waterproof options.
Our design consultants can help you select complementary flooring types that maintain visual harmony while addressing the specific needs of each room in your Sacramento home. We often create beautiful transitions between different flooring materials that enhance rather than detract from your home’s overall design.
What is the best flooring for a living room with pets and kids?
For Sacramento families with active children and pets, we most frequently recommend luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring for living rooms. Modern LVP offers exceptional durability against scratches, dents, and moisture while providing the beautiful appearance of natural wood. It’s comfortable underfoot, easy to clean, and stands up to the demands of busy households.
Other excellent options include certain engineered hardwoods with aluminum oxide finishes for enhanced scratch resistance, or high-quality laminate with water-resistant cores. During your consultation, we’ll assess your specific lifestyle needs and help you select the perfect balance of beauty, durability, and maintenance requirements for your Sacramento home.
What are the pros and cons of hardwood vs. luxury vinyl plank?
The timeline for a complete home flooring installation in Sacramento depends on several factors: your home’s square footage, the complexity of the layout, the type of flooring being installed, and the condition of your subfloors. As a general guideline:
A typical 1,500-2,000 square foot home with standard layout complexity usually requires 3-5 days for complete installation. Larger homes or projects involving multiple flooring types may take 5-7 days. If significant subfloor preparation is needed, this could add 1-2 additional days.
At Future Generation Construction, we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily life. We can often complete one room at a time to allow you to continue using other areas of your home during the installation process. During your consultation, we’ll provide a specific timeline estimate for your unique project.
How long does it take to replace the flooring in my whole house?
While backsplashes and countertops should coordinate, they don’t need to match exactly. In fact, a complementary contrast often creates more visual interest. In Sacramento homes, we typically recommend selecting backsplash colors that pick up secondary tones from your countertop for a cohesive look. For example, with busy granite countertops, a simpler backsplash often works best. Conversely, with solid-colored countertops, a more decorative backsplash can add personality. Our designers excel at creating harmonious combinations that enhance your overall kitchen design.
How do you handle the transitions between a living room and a tiled kitchen?
Creating seamless, attractive transitions between different flooring materials is one of our specialties at Future Generation Construction. For transitions between living room flooring (such as hardwood or LVP) and kitchen tile, we typically use one of several approaches:
1. T-molding or reducer strips: These create a smooth transition when floors are at different heights, available in materials and finishes that complement both flooring types.
2. Flush transitions: When both floors are at the same height, we can create clean, direct transitions with minimal separation.
3. Decorative thresholds: For distinctive separation, we can install marble, stone, or metal thresholds that serve as design features.
We carefully plan these transitions during the measurement phase to ensure they align with natural room boundaries, doorways, or architectural features in your Sacramento home. The goal is always a transition that looks intentional and enhances your home’s overall design.
Yes, we can. Our team has extensive experience addressing the textured walls frequently found in Sacramento’s diverse housing stock.
What do I need to do to prepare my home for new flooring installation?
While our team handles the heavy lifting, there are a few simple steps Sacramento homeowners can take to ensure a smooth installation process:
1. Clear small items: Remove small furniture, décor items, and fragile objects from the installation areas.
2. Secure valuables: Store jewelry, cash, and important documents in a safe location away from work areas.
3. Plan for pets: Arrange for pets to be kept in a separate area or out of the home during installation.
4. Clear closet floors: If flooring extends into closets, please remove items from the floor.
5. Disconnect electronics: Unplug and secure wiring for TVs, computers, and other electronics in the work areas.
Our installation team will handle moving larger furniture items, removing existing flooring, and all cleanup. We’ll provide you with specific preparation instructions before your scheduled installation date to ensure everything goes smoothly.
