Vama Flooring
Frequently Asked Questions
At Vama Flooring, we understand that starting a flooring or cabinetry project is a big decision—one that impacts your home, your budget, and your daily life. That’s why we do more than just sell high-quality flooring and custom cabinetry. With two full-service showrooms in Salt Lake City and Sandy, we offer an in-person experience where you can see, touch, and compare materials before making a decision. From expert product guidance to installation and maintenance, we’re with you every step of the way. Below are some of the most common questions we hear from homeowners across the Wasatch Front.
Q: How long does hardwood floor installation take?
- Square footage – A small room may take 1–2 days, while larger areas or full homes typically take a week or more.
- Type of wood – Solid hardwood takes longer, especially if it needs sanding and staining. Engineered hardwood installs more quickly.
- Prep work – Removing old flooring or leveling a subfloor will add to the timeline.
- Custom details – Patterns, borders, or inlays require extra time and care.
In most cases, our team completes hardwood flooring projects in Salt Lake City and Sandy homes within 3–5 days, with additional time for finishing if needed. We’ll always provide a detailed timeline before work begins so you can plan accordingly.
Q: What kind of warranties do you offer for custom cabinetry?
Typical warranties include:
- Workmanship warranty – Covers installation and construction defects.
- Hardware warranty – Manufacturer warranties for hinges, slides, and pulls.
- Finish warranty – Protects against premature wear, peeling, or cracking.
We’ll review all warranty details with you during your consultation and provide written documentation after your project is complete. Our cabinetry is built to last and to hold up beautifully in Utah homes.
Q: Do you handle everything from purchase to installation and repairs?
- Product selection in our Salt Lake City or Sandy showroom.

Q: What types of flooring are best for Utah’s climate?
- Engineered hardwood – More stable and less prone to expansion and contraction.
