What this covers.
Flooring is the other add-on to a new kitchen, and it is worth deciding early, because whether the new floor goes in before or after the cabinets changes the job.
Floating floors, such as luxury vinyl plank and laminate, usually go in after the cabinets, since cabinets set on top would pin them and stop them moving with the seasons. Tile and nail-down hardwood can run under the cabinets, which makes a later floor change easier and uses more material.
How It Works
Get in touch
Call, send the form, or come by the showroom on Stemmons Freeway. We are open weekdays from 7 to 5, and on weekends by appointment.
Design and measure
We design the new kitchen with you, then measure the room ourselves so the cabinet order fits what is there.
Demolition
We take out the old cabinets, counters and backsplash so the room is ready.
Installation
We install the new J&K cabinets, followed by the countertops, paint and flooring that are part of the job.
The Difference
What to know before you choose.
A new floor raises the height of the room. That matters most at the dishwasher: when flooring goes in after the cabinets, the dishwasher opening can end up too short to slide the machine out later.
Most houses here sit on a concrete slab. Luxury vinyl plank is waterproof and tolerates a slab that is slightly out of flat. Porcelain tile lasts for decades and needs a flatter slab, so dips and cracks get addressed before it goes down. Engineered hardwood looks like wood and should be kept away from standing water.

Flooring, answered.
Should flooring go in before or after kitchen cabinets?
Floating floors like luxury vinyl plank usually go in after. Tile and nail-down hardwood can go in before and run under the cabinets.
What flooring is best for a Texas kitchen?
Luxury vinyl plank and porcelain tile both handle water well on a concrete slab. Vinyl plank is softer underfoot and more forgiving of an uneven slab.
Can flooring be added to my kitchen?
Yes. Plan it in the design, so the order of the floor and the cabinets is settled before demolition.
