Basement Flooring FAQ

What is the best flooring for a basement in St. Louis?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the most popular basement flooring choice in St. Louis. It is 100% waterproof, installs directly over concrete, and handles the moisture and humidity common in St. Louis basements. Porcelain tile is another excellent option for areas prone to water.
How do you handle moisture in a basement floor installation?
Kelly’s Flooring performs moisture testing on every basement subfloor before installation. Based on the results, we may recommend a vapor barrier, moisture-mitigating primer, or waterproof flooring materials. This prevents mold, warping, and adhesion failure.
Can you install flooring directly over a concrete basement floor?
Yes. Luxury vinyl plank, porcelain tile, and carpet tile can all be installed directly over concrete. The concrete must be clean, dry, and level. Kelly’s Flooring handles all subfloor preparation including leveling, patching, and moisture mitigation.
How much does basement flooring cost in St. Louis?
Basement flooring costs depend on the material, square footage, and subfloor condition. Kelly’s Flooring provides in-home estimates that include moisture testing, subfloor prep, materials, and installation. Call (637) 677-5555 to schedule.
