Flooring & Tile in Austin, TX
New flooring transforms a room faster than almost any other renovation — and bad flooring installation undoes everything else you've put into the space. DiamondPoint installs hardwood, LVP, tile, and laminate with proper subfloor prep, so the floor looks right on day one and holds up through Austin's seasonal humidity swings.
Common Reasons Austin Homeowners Call Us
The LVP the previous owners installed is already buckling
Luxury vinyl plank is a durable product when installed correctly — but buckling, gapping, and peaking are common when installers skip subfloor prep, use the wrong underlayment, or don't leave adequate expansion gaps. DiamondPoint diagnoses the root cause before installing replacement material, so the new floor doesn't have the same problem.
The tile in the main living area has cracks and grout that's been patched a dozen times
Tile cracks over time when the slab below it moves — and in Central Texas, slab movement is common. DiamondPoint evaluates whether the substrate issue needs to be addressed before retiling, and uses appropriate crack-isolation membrane when warranted. Retiling over a moving slab without isolation will result in the same cracks within a few years.
You're refinishing the house for sale and need consistent flooring throughout
Getting a consistent flooring material across all rooms is one of the most effective pre-sale improvements — it makes the home read larger and more cohesive. DiamondPoint has completed whole-house flooring replacements on sale timelines and understands how to sequence the work efficiently around other contractors.
You just bought the house and the first thing you want to change is the floors
New owners often inherit flooring they didn't choose — carpet in every room, mismatched tile, or builder-grade LVP already showing wear. DiamondPoint can walk the house with you, evaluate what the subfloor situation is, and quote a full replacement before you move the furniture in. Starting with the floors first is the right sequencing for most renovations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my hardwood floor squeaking after it was just installed?
Squeaking usually means the subfloor wasn't properly secured before installation, there are subfloor gaps allowing movement, or the hardwood wasn't acclimated to the home's humidity before install. DiamondPoint secures or replaces subfloor as needed before laying hardwood, and specifies appropriate acclimation time for the material.
Can you install LVP over existing tile?
In many cases, yes — if the tile is flat, securely bonded, and the height difference at transitions is manageable. DiamondPoint measures for transition heights at doorways and entry points before committing to an over-tile installation. In some cases, removing the tile is the better call for a long-term result.
What's the best flooring for an Austin home that gets a lot of traffic and has dogs?
Porcelain tile is the most durable option, though harder underfoot. High-quality LVP (12-mil wear layer or more) is the practical choice for most Austin homeowners — it handles pet traffic, humidity, and spills well, and feels better to walk on than tile. DiamondPoint can show you product samples across price points.
