The oldest homes in Jackson cluster around Main Street, Court Street and Jackson Gate Road, near the National Hotel and the Kennedy Mine. Houses from the 1850s through the 1920s sit on stone or post-and-pier foundations with crawlspaces, so floors slope, doorways are out of square and several layers of flooring often sit over the original planks. These houses need leveling, a vapor barrier and a floor that tolerates seasonal movement. Rigid-core luxury vinyl plank and engineered hardwood are the right fits, and we build the prep into the estimate.
Off Broadway, Clinton Road and the hills along Highway 88 are the 1960s through 1990s subdivisions, ranch homes and split-levels on plywood subfloors. These houses take any floor we carry. A common plan is one continuous wood-look plank through the main living area with new carpet in the bedrooms, and a quartz counter to replace tile or laminate in the kitchen.
Newer homes along the Highway 88 corridor toward Martell and the Rancheria side of town are often on slabs with open floor plans and builder-grade finishes. Replacing the original carpet, upgrading laminate counters to quartz and finishing a plain bathroom with tile are the projects these houses are ready for, and every one of them starts with a measure at your house.
