What flooring considerations matter when setting up an L-shaped desk workstation?

Flooring type affects both the chair's mobility and the floor's long-term condition. On carpet, use a PVC chair mat (at minimum 36-by-48 inches and 0.125 inches thick) to protect the carpet pile and enable smooth rolling — and choose rollerblade-style casters on the chair for carpet use. On hard floors like hardwood, LVP, or polished concrete, switch to soft polyurethane casters on the chair to protect the surface and reduce rolling noise. Getting these details right before installation saves you from floor damage and chair mechanism wear down the road.
