American Renovation carries premium LVP brands with 20-mil wear layers — the commercial-grade thickness that holds up to pets, children, and heavy foot traffic. We install LVP throughout Durham County including Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough.

Porcelain and ceramic tile remain the standard for Durham bathrooms and kitchen floors. American Renovation installs standard tile, large-format tile (24"x24" and larger), wood-look plank tile, and mosaic tile throughout Durham County.
