New flooring changes how a home looks, how it feels underfoot, and how it holds up over time. Whether you are replacing worn-out tile, updating carpet in a bedroom, or installing luxury vinyl plank throughout an entire home remodel, the right flooring makes a bigger difference than most homeowners expect.
Rise Above Remodeling installs tile, luxury vinyl plank, laminate, carpet, and more throughout Phoenix, Anthem, Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and the surrounding North Valley. We handle everything from subfloor preparation and tile removal to material selection and final installation, with one team and one point of contact throughout.

Flooring decisions are more complicated than they look. The right material for a kitchen is not always the right material for a bathroom. What works in a high-traffic entryway may not be the best choice for a bedroom. And factors like subfloor condition, moisture exposure, pet activity, and resale goals all affect which option actually makes sense for your home.
That is where having an experienced contractor makes a real difference. At Rise Above Remodeling, we help you sort through the options, match the right material to each space, and avoid the common mistakes that lead to flooring that looks great in the showroom but underperforms at home. You can review samples at our Anthem showroom or we can bring selections to your home during the estimate visit.

Flooring costs depend on the material you choose, the size of the space, and whether existing flooring needs to be removed first. Here are current 2026 ranges for Phoenix-area projects:
| Flooring Type | Typical Cost Per Sq Ft | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Carpet | $3 – $7 | Includes pad and installation |
| Laminate | $4 – $8 | Includes underlayment and installation |
| Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) | $5 – $10 | Waterproof, good for most rooms |
| Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) | $5 – $10 | Tile-look vinyl, great for bathrooms |
| Porcelain or Ceramic Tile | $8 – $15 | Higher end for custom layouts or large format |
| Natural Stone Tile | $15 – $30+ | Travertine, marble, slate |
Tile removal adds $2 to $5 per square foot depending on the thickness of the existing tile and the subfloor condition. We provide a detailed itemized estimate before any work begins so you know the full cost upfront.
Tile Flooring: Tile is one of the most popular flooring choices in Arizona for good reason. It handles heat, moisture, and heavy foot traffic better than most other materials and stays cool underfoot during hot summers. We install ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone tile in standard and large-format layouts, including custom patterns and decorative tile for bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways. We also install metallic and designer tile for feature walls, shower surrounds, and accent areas.
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) and Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT): LVP and LVT have become the go-to flooring choice for whole-home installs in the Phoenix area. They are 100% waterproof, durable, comfortable underfoot, and available in a wide range of wood and stone looks that are difficult to distinguish from the real thing. A good option for homes with pets, kids, or high foot traffic. LVT gives you the tile look with a softer feel and easier installation than ceramic or porcelain.
Laminate Flooring: Laminate is a cost-effective option for lower-traffic areas like bedrooms, offices, and living rooms. It mimics the look of hardwood at a significantly lower price point. Modern laminate is more durable and moisture-resistant than older versions, though it is not recommended for bathrooms or laundry rooms. A good choice when budget is a priority and the space does not see heavy moisture exposure.
Carpet: Carpet adds warmth, comfort, and noise reduction to bedrooms and living areas. It is the most affordable flooring option and installs quickly. We help you select the right pile, fiber type, and pad combination for your space and lifestyle, including pet-friendly and stain-resistant options.
Tile removal is one of the most searched flooring services in the Anthem area and one of the most labor-intensive parts of any flooring project. Old tile, especially thick mortar-bed installations common in older Phoenix-area homes, requires specialized equipment and experience to remove without damaging the subfloor underneath.
Rise Above Remodeling handles full tile removal as part of flooring replacement projects throughout Anthem, Phoenix, and the surrounding area. We remove existing tile, clean up the subfloor, address any damage or leveling issues, and prepare the surface for the new flooring installation.
If you have tile that needs to come out before new flooring goes in, we can assess the scope and include removal in your project estimate. Give us a call at 623-551-2013 or request an estimate online to get started.
Whether you’re planning a full-home flooring upgrade or replacing floors in a single room, it’s common to have questions before starting. Below are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions from homeowners in Anthem and surrounding cities.
Costs vary by material. Carpet and laminate start around $3 to $8 per square foot installed. LVP and LVT typically run $5 to $10 per square foot. Tile ranges from $8 to $15 or more depending on the format and layout complexity. Natural stone runs $15 to $30 per square foot or more. Tile removal adds $2 to $5 per square foot if existing flooring needs to come out first.
At Rise Above Remodeling, we provide free estimates with clear pricing so you can make informed decisions without surprises.
Tile and luxury vinyl plank are the top choices for most Phoenix-area homes. Tile stays cool underfoot in summer, handles moisture well, and is extremely durable. LVP is waterproof, comfortable, and works well throughout the entire home including kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate is a good budget option for bedrooms and dry living areas. Carpet works well in bedrooms where comfort and noise reduction are the priority.
We help you weigh the pros and cons of each material based on your needs and lifestyle. Feel free to give us a call or visit our local design showroom in Anthem.
In some cases yes. New flooring can often go over existing vinyl or laminate as long as the current surface is level, dry, and in good condition. Tile almost always needs to be removed before new flooring is installed because of the height and weight it adds.
During your free estimate, we assess your existing floors and recommend the best path forward.
Carpet typically installs in one day. Laminate and LVP take one to three days depending on the size of the space. Tile installations take three to seven days once removal and subfloor prep are factored in, plus time for grout to cure before the floor can be used. We provide a schedule before work begins.
This is something we can discuss. In most cases we combine tile removal with a new flooring installation as part of a single project. If you only need removal, call us and we can talk through your situation and what makes sense.
LVP stands for luxury vinyl plank and mimics the look of hardwood in long plank format. LVT stands for luxury vinyl tile and mimics the look of tile or stone in a square or rectangular format. Both are 100% waterproof and install similarly. The choice comes down to the look you want. LVP is more popular in living areas and bedrooms; LVT works well in bathrooms and kitchens where a tile look is preferred without the cost or hardness of real ceramic.
Yes. Updated flooring is one of the first things buyers notice and one of the most impactful cosmetic improvements you can make before a sale. Neutral, modern tile or LVP throughout the main living areas tends to perform best in the Phoenix market. We can help you choose materials that balance upfront cost with long-term value.
