A few questions before you call anyone
Should I buy flooring from a store that also installs?
It puts one company on the hook if either the material or the installation goes wrong, which is worth something. Hiring an installer separately can cost less but splits responsibility — if the floor cups or gaps later you may get pointed back and forth.
What flooring works best in a Dayton basement?
Luxury vinyl plank and tile handle damp far better than laminate or solid hardwood, and basement moisture is common in the Miami Valley's older housing. Ask any installer how they'll handle the subfloor and moisture barrier, not just the surface material.
What's usually left out of a flooring quote?
Moving furniture, removing and hauling away the old flooring, subfloor repair, and transitions or trim. Each is a common extra — confirm which are included before comparing two quotes that look close on paper.
