    Basement Flooring in New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania

    Installing flooring in your basement is a great way to expand your living space. High-quality carpet, vinyl, or laminate can transform a damp, dusty cellar into a spare bedroom, home theater, or comfortable hideaway. Choosing the right flooring, however, can be a challenge.

    SMART Carpet and Flooring is here to make the process easy. We supply a broad range of carpet and flooring options to customers throughout New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. With mobile showrooms full of samples from top brand names, we can help customers select a beautiful and durable basement flooring product to fit their homes. We also provide professional flooring installation services to ensure a high-quality finish that you can enjoy for years to come.

    Exploring Basement Flooring Options

    The primary concern when finishing a basement is moisture. Because basements are below grade, they can be vulnerable to seepage and flooding. You want flooring that can get wet without taking damage. Though hardwood may be beautiful, boards can warp and rot when exposed to water. Instead, SMART Carpet and Flooring recommends the following options:

    Carpet

    Carpet is an excellent flooring choice for basements that remain relatively dry. The softness of carpet adds warmth underfoot, helping to counteract the chill of a basement during the winter months. The right carpet can transform your basement from cold concrete to a cozy and comfortable living space. It also improves sound absorption, reducing echoes and keeping your basement quiet.

    Outdoor Carpet

    If you like the warmth of carpet but worry about moisture, outdoor carpet is a more durable alternative. Outdoor carpet is designed to withstand the elements. Most product lines are water-resistant or waterproof for resilience in wet conditions. They are also easy to maintain. Simply vacuum up dirt or spray it off with a hose, then allow the carpet to air dry.

    Vinyl

    Vinyl flooring imitates the hardwood look without the hassle and moisture concerns of real wood. This flooring type is waterproof and easy to maintain. It also comes in a wide variety of textures, styles, and finishes, helping you achieve the look you want. SMART Carpet and Flooring offers hybrid vinyl flooring, luxury vinyl plank and tile, and sheet vinyl to meet a range of applications.

    Laminate

    If your basement features high-traffic zones, consider boosting durability with laminate. This flooring material is scratch- and stain-resistant, allowing it to retain its appearance through heavy use. It’s also incredibly easy to clean. With a broad range of styles available, including hardwood and tile look-alikes, laminate is a strong option for basement laundry rooms, game rooms, and more.

    At SMART Carpet and Flooring, we believe working with top manufacturers makes a difference in the quality of our products. We carry a vast selection of flooring made by well-known brands in the industry, including Shaw, Armstrong, Mohawk, COREtec, and Mannington.

    Excellent experience with Smart Carpet! Louie and his installers did a great job in our home. Highly recommend them!
    Diana K.
    100% satisfied from beginning to end. Louie came to our house, measured and talked to us about what we expected from the product.
    Bringing in the samples which made it easy to make a final decision. Received a call the next day to make the appointment for installation. Jonathan and his partner removed the old carpets, moving furniture, putting down the padding and then laying down the carpet. These guys were courteous, polite and professional. From the room flooring to the closets, every corner and cut is precise. Absolutely love the carpet. Thank you for bringing brightness to our rooms.

    I'm so glad I chose Smart Carpet for my recent installation! Their team was incredibly helpful in guiding me to pick the perfect carpet for my home. The installers did an absolutely great job; they were highly professional and meticulous. My husband was especially happy that they managed to install everything without scuffing his freshly painted stair treads. Everyone involved was professional and did a fantastic job from start to finish.
    Debbie E.
    Great experience with Shayne in Ocean County. We wanted a mixture of floor and carpet to spruce up our basement. Shayne shared different options with us. He made it so easy to make our choices in our own home! Installers for both floor and carpet were professional, friendly and got the job done right! Shayne also helped us previously with carpet for LR and stairs!! I’m sure we will reach out to Shayne again in the future!
    Arielle M.
    From beginning to end a great experience. Louis was personable, accurate and professional. The install crew worked diligently to do an exemplary job, cleaned up and moved furniture back in place without hesitation. A+

    I couldn’t be happier with the new linoleum floor installed by Smart Carper through Costco! From start to finish, the team was professional, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with. Otto helped me choose the perfect style for my space and budget, and the installation was done quickly and with great attention to detail. The floor looks absolutely fantastic and it made a huge difference in the room. I highly recommend Smart Carpet to anyone needing to freshen up their space!
    Sonia M.
    We just had our kitchen flooring installed. Ulysses and Carlos did a beautiful job!! They were very professional and competent young men. We are very happy customers, and highly recommend the Smart Flooring through Costco.

    I am so happy with my new floor. The guys that came and installed them were awesome. They moved all my furniture and put it all back. They were in and out in no time.
    My sales guy Andrew was awesome, he explained everything to me in detail and there were no surprises. Honestly this is the first time in a long time that I had work done in my house with no problems. I would recommend this company to anyone that wants to redo their floors. I am just so happy
    Brian C.
    This was a superior company. The person that came out and estimated the work did a fantastic job. The workers that came out and put down the rug did an unbelievably good job. The Costco company negotiated the best possible deal pricewise with this company on top of all that they gave me a $900 shop card with Costco. Unbelievable.
    Karen L
    Have used them many times. Ryan was our salesman and was great. Smooth installation and very happy with final product.
    Charna G.
    A very positive experience. The gentleman in the showroom was very patient and informative. I picked out a couple of rugs I liked and he arranged for the mobile showroom to come to my home. Ryan, with the mobile showroom, showed me the samples in my home, which was invaluable. He measured, answered questions and helped me make some decisions. He was a pleasure to work with. Delivery followed a couple of weeks later. I’m very happy with my choice. It was a painless and reasonably priced experience.

    David B.
    I’ve used Smart Carpet several times over the years - this time around we got Louie for our sales rep and he was great! Very personable, patient and helpful. We made several changes during our renovation and Louie gave us fantastic support - even came back to the house more than once to make sure we were satisfied with our selections. The installation teams were phenomenal. FAST, CLEAN and courteous (they wore slip on shoes so they could remove them and keep the new carpets pristine!)
    Paulyn H.
    This is my fifth time working with Smart Carpet. Rima listened to what I needed and provided me with multiple options based on my descriptions. She helped me narrow it down to my final choice. The whole sales experience was no pressure and she went out of her way to answer any questions I had. Installation was exactly as expected. Sammy was a professional craftsman, and took great care to install the padding and then the carpet in the correct direction (it's a herringbone pattern) and ensure I was satisfied with the results. Everyone was great from start to finish. And j wouldn't hesitate to work with them again if needed.
    Barry K.
    Had a carpet installed in a basement bedroom and staircase. Louie from sales gave us the quote and was really good to work with as far as picking the best padding and carpet for our space. The price was fair and the installation went very well. We liked the communication with Louie and the company. Would use them again in the future. Communication was the key.
    Stephanie D.
    Great service and knowledgeable crew! I needed a quick turnaround and they absolutely delivered. Their recommendations were on point, they came prepared, exceeded all expectations and were a pleasure to work with.

    My experience with Smart Carpet couldn’t have been better! Andrew gave us a great consultation and estimate. He was honest, helpful and informative. I needed installation in an extremely short amount of time for my daughter’s room, and he made it happen! Sam came to install my carpet. He was friendly, quick and efficient. The carpet looks beautiful and we are very pleased with the quality. Looking forward to future projects with Smart Carpet.
