When it comes to DC flooring, we at Virginia Kitchen & Bath have you covered. We know how essential it is for your Washington, D.C. home to look and feel just right, and flooring is one of the most impactful ways to make that happen. Whether you’re stepping into a newly purchased rowhouse in Georgetown or modernizing a long-standing apartment in Dupont Circle, our team is here to guide you through the process. After all, D.C. is a place of rich history, cultural diversity, and cutting-edge design—so why shouldn’t your floors reflect that unique energy?
Why Your Washington DC Flooring Matters
Did you know that Washington, D.C. is home to over 700,000 residents and continues to grow each year? With a thriving housing market and ongoing renovations across the region, local homeowners appreciate how flooring can set the tone for their entire home. From airy hardwood floors that brighten a space to cozy carpets that create a warm, inviting nook for a family movie night, your flooring plays a huge role in daily comfort and long-term property value.
For those who might be curious, hardwood flooring remains one of the most sought-after options in the D.C. metro area. In fact, according to national housing data, hardwood floors can increase a home’s value by up to 2.5%—a compelling factor in a market as competitive as Washington’s. On the other hand, modern luxury vinyl planks and high-quality laminates also offer exceptional style, durability, and moisture resistance—ideal for busy families, pets, or those unpredictable Mid-Atlantic weather changes.

Flooring Maintenance Tips
Hardwood Flooring
- Tip: Sweep or vacuum regularly to prevent scratches from dirt and debris. Use a damp (not wet) mop with a hardwood-safe cleaner to maintain shine, and avoid excessive moisture to protect against warping.
Engineered Wood & Laminate
- Tip: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent water damage. Use a soft, dry mop or vacuum with a hardwood attachment for cleaning, and avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the surface.
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)
- Tip: Sweep or vacuum frequently to prevent dirt buildup. Use a damp mop with a mild vinyl floor cleaner for deeper cleaning, and place felt pads under furniture to avoid scratches.
Tile & Stone Flooring
- Tip: Sweep or vacuum to remove grit and use a pH-neutral cleaner to avoid damaging grout or stone finishes. Seal stone floors periodically to protect against stains and moisture.
Carpet Installations
- Tip: Vacuum regularly to prevent dirt from settling into fibers. Schedule professional deep cleaning annually and blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth—don’t rub.
