Installing floors in Citrus Heights homes
Citrus Heights nearly quadrupled in the 1970s, from 21,760 people to 85,911, and 52% of its 34,977 homes date from the 1960s and 70s. Sunrise Mall opened in 1972, in the middle of that boom.
Houses that age often have sheet vinyl or 12-inch vinyl tile in the kitchen and baths. Anything built before 1981 is tested for asbestos before it comes up, and removal is its own line in the quote.
About 40% of Citrus Heights homes are rented. LVP with a 12 mil wear layer at $2.20 per sq ft is the floor we suggest for rentals; owners replacing carpet in a 1970s house often go for 20 mil LVP or engineered oak.
Citrus Heights lists floor coverings as permit-free work. Summers reach 100°F on about 23 days a year, so sun-facing rooms get rigid-core LVP or engineered wood that was acclimated first.
Citrus Heights flooring questions
Do I need a permit to replace flooring in Citrus Heights?
No. Citrus Heights' permit chart lists floor coverings (linoleum, tile, wood flooring, carpet) as work that needs no permit. HOA rules still apply where there is one.
How much does it cost to install 1,000 sq ft of flooring in Citrus Heights?
With our rates and carpet coming out: about $7,090 for LVP, $7,320 for laminate and $13,160 for engineered hardwood, including material, installation, baseboard, transitions, haul-away and delivery. 2,000 sq ft of LVP replacing builder tile runs about $19,880. The final number comes from the measure.
Do you remove the old floor?
Yes. Carpet and pad, sheet vinyl, LVP and laminate come out at $0.50 per sq ft; tile is $3.50 per sq ft. Haul-away is $150 per truckload of about 600 sq ft.
How much do I pay up front?
Nothing on the website. For installation, California caps the down payment at $1,000 or 10% of the contract, whichever is less, and the rest is paid as work is done.
Is LVP a good idea with Citrus Heights summers?
Yes, if it is rigid-core and installed with the expansion gap the maker specifies. Floors next to big west- or south-facing glass get the most heat; shades help any floor last.
