Flooring Installation
The Foundation of Every Great Interior
AQ Construction installs hardwood, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), tile, laminate, and carpet throughout your home. Our crews handle removal of existing flooring, subfloor prep, leveling, and professional installation — delivering a finished product that looks great and lasts for years.
Whether you're replacing flooring in a single room or doing a whole-home renovation, we provide consistent quality across every square foot. We work with homeowners and real estate investors on projects of all sizes throughout Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Howard County, Anne Arundel County, and Harford County.
Baltimore-area homes present specific flooring challenges. Rowhomes in Federal Hill, Canton, and Hampden often have original hardwood floors that can be refinished, or uneven subfloors that need leveling before new flooring goes down. Homes in Towson, Ellicott City, and Columbia may have builder-grade carpet or laminate that's ready for an upgrade to LVP or hardwood. Basements throughout the region require moisture-resistant flooring options like LVP or tile. We assess every space and recommend the best material for your specific situation.

Baltimore-Area Expertise
Flooring for Every Baltimore Home Type
Rowhome Flooring
Baltimore's rowhomes — in neighborhoods like Federal Hill, Fells Point, Canton, Patterson Park, Hampden, Remington, and Charles Village — often have original hardwood floors dating back decades. In many cases, these floors can be sanded and refinished to restore their original beauty. When replacement is needed, we remove the old flooring, address any subfloor issues (common in older homes with settling), and install new hardwood or LVP that complements the home's character. Narrow hallways and tight staircases in rowhomes require precise cutting and fitting — our installers have extensive experience with these layouts.
Suburban & Townhome Flooring
Homes in Towson, Catonsville, Ellicott City, Columbia, Severna Park, Bel Air, and Owings Mills often have open floor plans where flooring continuity is important. We install consistent flooring across living rooms, kitchens, hallways, and bedrooms for a seamless, modern look. LVP is the most popular choice for whole-home installations due to its durability, water resistance, and realistic wood-grain appearance. For homeowners who prefer real wood, we install solid and engineered hardwood in oak, maple, hickory, and walnut.
Basement & Moisture-Prone Areas
Basements, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and entryways require flooring that can handle moisture. LVP and porcelain tile are the best options for these spaces. We install vapor barriers and ensure proper subfloor preparation to prevent moisture damage. For finished basements, we recommend LVP with an attached underlayment for comfort and sound reduction.
Investor & Rental Property Flooring
Real estate investors need durable, attractive flooring that holds up to tenant use and appeals to renters. We install mid-grade LVP and laminate throughout rental properties at competitive pricing, with fast turnaround times to minimize vacancy. Our investor clients in Baltimore City, Dundalk, Essex, Parkville, and Glen Burnie rely on us for consistent quality and reliable scheduling.
FAQ
Flooring FAQs
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the best choice for most basements. It's 100% waterproof, handles temperature fluctuations well, and looks great. Tile is also excellent. We generally advise against solid hardwood below grade due to moisture sensitivity.
