Where Can I Buy Tile on Hilton Head?

Headlands Tile & Flooring on Hunter Road and Hilton Head Kitchen & Tile Studio on Beach City Road are the two tile-first showrooms. Floors To Go and Lifestyle Flooring carry tile alongside their other flooring (Lifestyle names Daltile and Bedrosians), and RB Flooring and Variety Floor Covering sell and install tile and stone.

Bring the room’s measurements and a photo. Ask who installs the tile, whether the quote covers the backer board and waterproofing in a shower, and how long a special order takes to arrive.

Flooring for a Vacation Rental or Condo

Floors To Go and Abbey Floor Fashion both list services for property managers. Gilman Floors reviewers describe a full replacement of stairs and upstairs carpet squeezed into a one-week vacancy in a townhome, and Hilton Head Floorcoverings reviewers say the company handled measuring, ordering and installation for out-of-town condo owners.

On a rental, flooring that wipes clean and takes sand matters most. Floors To Go carries COREtec waterproof vinyl and Hilton Head Floorcoverings lists waterproof flooring. For the cleaning side, see the best carpet cleaning on Hilton Head and the best house cleaning on Hilton Head.

Who Repairs or Refinishes Floors on Hilton Head?

Gilman Floors does carpet restretching and binding, floor repairs and hardwood refinishing. May River Flooring Company refinishes hardwood and does floor maintenance, and Floors To Go does hardwood restoration. Abbey Floor Fashion reviewers describe a carpet repair finished the same day.

Ask for the sanding and finish plan in writing, including how many coats and how long before furniture can go back. A reviewer of one refinishing job praised the detailed quote and said the result still fell short, so ask to see a finished floor nearby.

What to Ask About Flooring on an Island

Moisture is the question for a ground-floor condo or a home near the marsh. Ask whether the floor is waterproof or only water-resistant, what the subfloor needs, and what the manufacturer’s installation instructions require for the warranty to stand. Some products must be left in the room to acclimate before they go down, and a product that skips that step can void the warranty.

Prices depend on the material, the square footage, the subfloor, stairs and moving furniture. Get two or three written quotes for the same product. Lifestyle Flooring says it will match a comparable big-box estimate, and Floors To Go offers a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. For the Bluffton side, see home services in Bluffton; for every other trade, see home services on Hilton Head Island.
