The Crescent City’s charm comes from its distinctive architecture, humid subtropical weather, and rich cultural mix. Those same factors make flooring New Orleans projects uniquely challenging. Excess moisture, shifting soil, and historic neighborhood guidelines require a flooring partner that understands local conditions. CountBricks has delivered precision residential construction solutions across the metro area for more than a decade. Our AI-driven platform pairs real-time cost data with hands-on craftsmanship, giving homeowners the confidence that every plank, tile, or plank-vinyl board is engineered to thrive in the New Orleans climate.
CountBricks is more than a contractor—we are a technology-powered construction ally. By integrating voice-activated estimating, on-site blueprint takeoffs, and automatic schedule generation, we compress weeks of back-and-forth into minutes.
• Voice-to-Estimate: Walk the space, describe your vision, and receive a live material and labor breakdown in real time.
• Live Market Pricing: Our database updates every hour, ensuring the cost of oak, bamboo, or waterproof luxury vinyl reflects today’s supplier prices—not last quarter’s averages.
• AI Blueprint Takeoffs: Upload existing plans or snap a picture of your room. CountBricks instantly calculates square footage, waste factors, and transition pieces.
• Instant Quote Documents: Click “Approve,” and our system generates a polished proposal ready for HOA review or insurance submission.
• Digital Job Tracking: Homeowners monitor tasks, milestone photos, and invoices in the CountBricks.com dashboard 24/7.
Hardwood carries timeless elegance, but excessive humidity can lead to cupping. Engineered hardwood—constructed with a cross-ply core—offers improved stability without sacrificing the look of solid plank. CountBricks recommends engineered options for ground-floor installations in uptown cottages and Garden District mansions alike.
When clients need the warmth of wood and the water resistance of tile, LVP shines. Its rigid core resists dents, while a waterproof wear layer handles French Quarter flood events.
Tile’s low-porosity makes it ideal for kitchens, baths, and raised-basement entries. Modern inkjet printing mimics reclaimed cypress or antique brick, helping renovations meet historic mandates.
Eco-conscious homeowners gravitate to rapidly renewable bamboo or cork. Both materials expand and contract less than pine or maple, reducing seam separation during summer heat waves.
1. Discovery Call: In a five-minute voice session, outline style goals, budget, and timeline.
2. On-Site Assessment: A CountBricks project lead measures moisture levels, subfloor integrity, and transition heights.
3. Live Estimate: Our AI engine builds a line-item quote while you watch—materials, demolition, disposal, and trim included.
4. Design Confirmation: Approve species, stain, or tile pattern through digital renderings hosted at CountBricks.com/portfolio.
5. Mobilization: Materials are ordered at locked-in prices. You receive delivery dates and a Gantt chart automatically.
6. Installation & QA: Certified crews follow NWFA and TCNA standards, photographing each stage for your project log.
7. Final Walk-Through: We review sheen level, expansion gaps, and warranty paperwork before collecting digital sign-off.
Moisture mitigation is the hidden cost many homeowners overlook. Vapor barrier underlayments, leveling compounds, and dehumidifiers can add 8–15 % to the project total. Because CountBricks tracks thousands of Louisiana installs, our AI flags these line items early—no surprise invoices later.
• Entry-Level LVP: From $5.25 per square foot installed
• Mid-Grade Engineered Hardwood: From $8.75 per square foot installed
• Premium Imported Porcelain: From $12.60 per square foot installed
Prices include demolition, underlayment, trims, and standard furniture moves. Request a room-specific breakdown at CountBricks.com/services.
Humidity control is non-negotiable. Keep indoor relative humidity between 35 % and 55 % to prevent expansion. Annual resealing of hardwood and quarterly grout sealing on tile protect against Mardi Gras spills and hurricane-season dampness.
• Place breathable mats at each exterior door to capture sediment-laden rainwater
• Run ceiling fans daily to promote air circulation in shotgun-style layouts
• Use felt pads under furniture to avoid denting softer species like pine
• Avoid steam mops on engineered hardwood; stick to pH-neutral cleaners
• Schedule a CountBricks annual inspection—our team recalibrates thresholds, trims swollen doors, and tests humidity levels
Beyond craftsmanship, clients choose us for transparency and speed. By eliminating manual data entry, we cut average project lead times by 32 %. Our platform’s granular tracking also qualifies many homeowners for insurance discounts tied to documented maintenance.

Mrs. LeBlanc wanted to replace the worn pine floors in her 1890s shotgun with something historically respectful yet durable enough for her two Labradors. She contacted CountBricks through the voice estimate feature on her phone while standing in the living room. Within nine minutes, she received a detailed proposal for 1,100 sq ft of wire-brushed engineered oak, complete with subfloor repair allowances and custom threshold fabrication.
• Estimate Turnaround: 9 minutes from first call to digital proposal
• Material Lock-In: Prices secured 18 % below regional average through our live supplier feed
• Installation Duration: 4.5 days, including trim and final coat of low-VOC waterborne finish
• Post-Install Humidity Reading: 43 %, ensuring warranty compliance
1. Hidden Chimney Settling: Our AI flag alerted the crew to floor sag near an old chimney chase. By integrating the repair allowance early, we avoided a schedule slip and a $1,400 change order.
2. Pet-Friendly Finishes: The matte topcoat specified by CountBricks’ design engine hides scratches better than gloss, reducing maintenance calls.
• Pre-Project Scan: Even if your subfloor feels solid, request a CountBricks moisture and flatness scan. Small anomalies can turn into major creaks once new flooring is installed.
• Climate Buffer: Install a smart hygrometer after project completion. Our app syncs with most brands and alerts you when RH drifts into the danger zone.
• Annual Tune-Up: Book a quick reseal or board replacement through CountBricks.com/services to keep your warranty intact.
Every residence tells a different story, but the path to resilient, beautiful flooring in New Orleans starts with data-driven planning and craftsman execution. CountBricks unites both. Reach out today and experience construction made simple.
