Frequently asked questions
The questions Seattle homeowners ask most.
Consultations, material options, timelines, and how the flooring installation process works — the stuff you'd ask before calling. If we missed your question, call 1-888-484-3132.
Do you charge for the consultation?
No. All consultations are free and held on-site, with a written proposal at the end — line-item scope, product options, and timeline.
What's your service area?
We install flooring across Seattle and the surrounding King County communities. The Service area page has the full picture.
How long does a typical flooring installation take?
It depends on material and scope. LVP and carpet installations typically run 1–3 days. Hardwood installations require 3–7 days of acclimation before install, then 2–4 days for installation and finishing. Tile runs 3–5 days including grout cure time. Every project gets a written timeline in the proposal.
Are you licensed and insured?
Home Services Plus is a bonded and fully insured Washington contractor. WA L&I license verification and certificate of insurance available on request.
Do you handle permits?
Most flooring installations don't require a permit. If your project involves subfloor structural repair, radiant heat electrical, or other permitted scope, we handle the permit process in-house.
Who manages my project?
A dedicated project manager, with direct involvement from the owner. You'll have a real person who is on-site, gives regular updates, and stays reachable through the install.
How do I schedule a consultation?
Easiest is to call 1-888-484-3132 during business hours. You can also book a slot directly on our online calendar — pick a time that works and we'll confirm by phone before the visit.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Check, credit card, ACH, and Zelle. Payment schedules are written into the proposal and tied to project milestones — not paid upfront.
Do you supply materials as well as install?
Yes — we supply and install. We walk you through product options at the consultation, order directly from our suppliers, and deliver to your home. You're not managing separate orders from a flooring showroom and an installer.
What happens if you find a subfloor problem after demo?
We document the issue, price the fix as a written change order, and get your written approval before continuing. Nothing gets billed without your sign-off.
Can I stay in my home during installation?
Yes — most flooring installations don't require you to leave. We'll set expectations for which rooms are inaccessible each day, so you can plan around the work. Hardwood finishing coats require ventilation and limited foot traffic for several hours after each coat.
What hours are you open?
Daily, 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM. For after-hours requests, send a message through the contact form — we'll get back to you the next business day.
