Homes and buildings in Staten Island
Staten Island is largely one- and two-family houses on wood framing, from older homes on the North Shore to newer construction on the South Shore. Many have finished basements and open-plan kitchens and living rooms.
What to plan for
- Whole-house projects
- Open layouts often run one floor through several rooms. Order enough for the whole run plus waste so the color matches; our guide on how much flooring to order explains the math.
- Basements and kitchens
- Use water-resistant vinyl plank or a below-grade-rated engineered floor in basements; check moisture first.
