When you know about issues ahead of time, you can be prepared to handle them. Some of the things we look for are correct measurements because this ensures the right amount of product and avoids delays. We also examine the subfloor, looking for moisture issues, unevenness, mold, and rotted boards that can affect the surface floor.
Some floorings can be easily installed over anything. Others, such as hardwood, cannot, and more in-depth preparation will be required. This, in turn, allows us to devise the right plan for your flooring installation. The site assessment is also your opportunity to questions, such as who removes furniture and how long the process will take.
We include this section so you can see for yourself how they differ. Solid hardwood, which demands special skills, is a tongue and groove, plus nail-down with multiple coats of stains. Subfloors require moisture readings and, sometimes restoration and repair.
The floating floor, often used for laminate, luxury vinyl, and engineered hardwood, has a locking system where the pieces click together and then hover over the subfloor. Subfloors must be clean, dry, and level or imperfections will travel up to the surface floor. Tile often includes unique mats, boards, and backing, while carpet uses adhesives, nails, and stretching.
