- Why FIXO
Why Arlington homes get fixed-price floors from FIXO
Between a 1920s Ashton Heights bungalow and a Rosslyn high-rise, Arlington asks an installer to handle very different floors in the same week. We quote one bundled number for material, delivery, labor and clean-up, we absorb subfloor surprises instead of billing them, and the installer who measured is the one on your crew.
Fixed Price
One number covers material, delivery, floating install, transitions, clean-up and haul-away of packaging. The number you sign is the number you pay.
- Every quote itemizes what's in — and what would cost extra — before you approve it.
1–2 Day Install
A dedicated two-person crew arrives with everything on the truck. A typical 600 sq ft main level is walkable the same evening.
- We schedule the whole job in one block; nobody disappears to another site mid-way.
No Hidden Fees
No fuel surcharge, no ‘unforeseen conditions’ line, no change-order surprise. If the subfloor needs more than we quoted, we absorb it.
- Backed in writing by our Fixed Price Guarantee and our workmanship warranty.
- How it works

LVP or Laminate for Your Arlington Floors?
In Arlington we put down LVP, laminate, engineered hardwood and tile, and the split between them follows the housing. Condos along the Metro corridors lean LVP over concrete. The brick colonials and ramblers in Westover, Barcroft and Lyon Park often take laminate upstairs. Samples are full-size and come to you.
- 100% waterproof
LVP Flooring Installation
Most Arlington condos, whether a 1940s Fairlington garden unit or a new tower in Ballston, sit on concrete. LVP floats over that slab with an attached pad, and its waterproof core handles the kitchen, the bath and the occasional balcony-door leak in one continuous run. It is thinner in texture than real wood when you look closely, which we tell every customer up front.
- Waterproof core — safe in kitchens, baths and below grade
- Quiet & warm underfoot with attached pad
- Six stocked styles — full-size samples come to you
- Honest limit: less texture depth than real wood up close

Laminate Flooring Installation
Laminate is the pick for bedroom levels and hallways in Arlington’s older detached houses, where a plywood or board subfloor over joists is typical and moisture is not the worry. You get the deepest wood grain per dollar and the toughest wear layer, which suits stairs in a two-story colonial. Because it is only water-resistant, we keep laminate out of bathrooms and basements.
- Hard wear layer — chairs, toys and claws don't mark it
- Most realistic wood grain and beveled edges
- Four stocked styles on a 10 mm low-swell core
- Honest limit: water-resistant, not waterproof — we won't put it in a bathroom

- Durable wear layer

- Local knowledge
Floors in Arlington homes, from bungalows to high-rises
Arlington County has no incorporated towns, so the whole county is one jurisdiction and one set of rules. The housing splits by distance from Metro. Close to the Rosslyn to Ballston corridor and around Pentagon City and Crystal City, most of what we install goes into concrete-floored condos. Farther out, Ashton Heights, Lyon Park, Maywood and Cherrydale hold bungalows, foursquares and colonials from the 1920s to the 1940s, usually on crawlspaces or partial basements with wood subfloors. Westover, Bluemont and Barcroft are 1940s and 1950s ramblers and Cape Cods, many with finished lower levels on slab. Fairlington and Colonial Village are wartime garden apartments turned condos, also on slab.
Under the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code that Arlington County enforces, installing or replacing floor finishes is exempt from permits, so a like-for-like floor swap in a house needs no paperwork from the county. Condo work is different only because of the association. Most Arlington buildings require an alteration application, a certificate of insurance and a sound-rated underlayment for units above the ground floor, and high-rises usually make you book the freight elevator and a loading bay. We build those steps into the schedule.
The three jobs we see most: whole-unit LVP in corridor condos, carpet-to-laminate on the second floor of a 1930s colonial, and LVP through a rambler’s lower level after a wet spring. New-build teardowns in Lyon Village and Cherrydale occasionally call for engineered hardwood to match an existing main floor.
A tip for Arlington’s older houses: the original oak is often thinner than it looks and has been sanded before. If a floating floor is going over it, we check for loose or cupped boards at the measurement and screw them down first, because a floating floor telegraphs any movement underneath.
Our flooring installers cover these Arlington neighborhoods: Clarendon, Ballston, Rosslyn, Lyon Village, Lyon Park, Ashton Heights, Cherrydale, Westover, Bluemont, Barcroft, Fairlington, Shirlington, Crystal City, Pentagon City and Columbia Pike. The complete list of towns we serve is on the service areas page.
Our Arlington crews are the same ones you will find in Alexandria, McLean and Falls Church, so scheduling stays tight across the inner suburbs. If you are weighing options for a condo, start with LVP installation, then run the instant quote to see the fixed number for your unit.

- FAQ
Arlington flooring questions we hear most often
Straight answers. If yours isn’t here, call (757) 589-6859 — an installer picks up.
For a straightforward floor replacement, no. Arlington enforces the Virginia statewide building code, which lists installation or replacement of floor finishes among the work exempt from permits. Structural changes, moving walls or altering stairs are a different story, but swapping carpet for LVP or laminate is not something the county needs to see.
Yes. Nearly every Arlington high-rise and most of the garden condos have a flooring policy with a minimum sound rating. Send us the page from your bylaws, and we will spec an underlayment that meets it and include it in the fixed price. We also supply the certificate of insurance and any installer information the management office asks for.
We ask you to reserve the freight elevator and loading dock for the install day once the date is set, and we plan the material delivery around that window. The crew brings everything in one trip. If your building limits work hours, tell us at the measurement and we will size the crew to finish within them.
It can, and it is a good fit. Laminate has the hardest wear layer of the two floating floors, so it holds up to stair traffic. Stairs are priced per step as their own line, with the nosing included, so you see that cost separately from the rooms. We keep it off any step that leads into a basement that gets damp.
The number bundles material, delivery, installation and clean-up. Optional lines such as removal of the old floor, baseboards and shoe molding, stairs, transitions and subfloor leveling are shown separately so you can add or drop them. Once you sign, the price only moves one way. If a room measures smaller, it goes down.
No. The instant quote asks seven questions about your rooms and product choice and shows a fixed price on screen in about 60 seconds. There is no form gate and no sales call afterward unless you ask for one. When you are ready, you book the express measurement from the same screen.
A dedicated FIXO crew that includes the installer who measured your home. They bring the material with them, so there is no separate delivery to wait on. Most Arlington jobs wrap in 1 to 2 days. Baseboards go back on, the trash leaves with us, and the workmanship is covered by a written warranty.
