Flooring Installation Contractors in Upstate SC

Flooring Installation in Greenville & Upstate SC

Four Seasons Building & Remodeling installs hardwood, engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, tile, and refinishes existing hardwood floors across the Upstate. Every installation starts with subfloor inspection (most flooring failures trace back to subfloor moisture or flatness issues that should have been caught at the start), proper acclimation, and the right underlayment for the specific product and substrate. SC license RB52147.

Realistic 2026 Upstate pricing, materials and installation combined (typical residential):

• Luxury vinyl plank (LVP): $5–$10/sq ft installed. Mid-grade LVP is the Upstate workhorse — waterproof, dog/kid-proof, and easy to refresh in 10–15 years.
• Engineered hardwood: $9–$16/sq ft installed. Real wood veneer on a stable plywood core; dimensionally stable in Upstate humidity, can be refinished 1–2 times.
• Solid hardwood (3/4" red oak, white oak, hickory): $10–$18/sq ft installed. The premium choice; can be refinished 5+ times over a 50–100 year life.
• Tile (porcelain or ceramic): $9–$18/sq ft installed for standard formats; $15–$30+/sq ft for large-format, wood-look planks, or decorative installs requiring uncoupling membrane.
• Hardwood refinish (existing floors): $4–$8/sq ft including sand, stain, and three coats of polyurethane. The single highest-ROI flooring project in the Upstate.

What Most Flooring Quotes Leave Out

• Subfloor prep — leveling compound, fastening loose subfloor, replacing water-damaged sections. We inspect and quote this transparently up front.
• Tear-out and disposal of existing flooring.
• Trim and shoe molding at all walls and transitions — quarter round, thresholds, T-moldings, reducer strips.
• Cabinet and toilet handling — pulling/resetting toilets, undercutting door casings, working around installed cabinetry.
• Acclimation for solid and engineered hardwood (typically 3–7 days on site before install) — a step low-bid installers often skip, leading to gapping and cupping later.

Why Subfloor Inspection Matters in Upstate SC

Upstate humidity averages 65–75% year-round, and crawlspace homes often have elevated subfloor moisture that destroys hardwood within a year if the floor goes down before the crawlspace is addressed. We always check subfloor moisture with a meter before installing wood; if it's high, we tell you what's needed (encapsulation, dehumidifier, or vapor barrier) before we sell you a hardwood floor that will fail. LVP and tile are far less moisture-sensitive — if your crawlspace can't be reliably controlled, those are usually the smarter choice.
