Frequently Asked Flooring Questions
-
New flooring materials—especially engineered hardwood and laminate—need to adapt to your home's unique indoor humidity and temperature levels. We deliver the boxes directly to your home 48 to 72 hours before breaking ground so the materials can expand or contract naturally, which prevents buckling, warping, or separation after installation.
-
While it is sometimes technically possible, we highly advise against it. Installing new materials over old, unlevel floors can trap underlying moisture, cause new planks to separate over time, and create weird vertical clearance issues with your doors and appliances. We always prefer a clean teardown to the bare subfloor so we can patch, reinforce, and level the base properly.
-
If we install floating floors like interlocking Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) or laminate, you can walk on them and move your furniture back into place immediately after we pack up our tools. For engineered hardwood that requires custom adhesives or fasteners, we recommend waiting 24 hours to let everything settle completely before resuming normal foot traffic.
-
Squeaking is caused by old subfloor boards rubbing against framing nails as your house shifts. During our teardown stage, we locate every loose spot and drive heavy-duty structural screws directly into your joists. This tightens up the underlying platform completely, giving you a silent, solid base before we layer on your new premium floors.
-
We ask homeowners to clear out small items, fragile decorations, electronics, and clothing before we arrive. For large, heavy furniture pieces like couches, dining tables, or beds, we can coordinate the logistics to assist you or shuffle them safely into finished zones as our installation crew advances across your layout.
