What Does Professional Flooring Installation in Ottawa Include?
Quality flooring installation will age well and increase your resale value and future buyer appeal. Updated floors address wear and outdated style throughout your home. Nothing compares to a floor revamp to get your home feeling complete and stylish.
New flooring looks good and is easy to maintain. Choosing the right floor is important to avoid harmful toxins found in certain products1. Hardwood installations are scuff and moisture-resistant, they really age well. Tile and vinyl are used in places like bathrooms and kitchens that need extra durability.
New Flooring Adds Lasting Value to Ottawa Homes
Whole house flooring is a big job. You’ll need to consider furniture removal and room clearing. This speeds up installation. We’ll do the work upfront like identify potential subfloor issues, seams, and areas that aren’t level before installation day to make sure you’re ready for installation.
We see character homes and older Victorian homes in and around Ottawa often need subfloor work or even reinforcement from settling or wear. We’ll consider moisture levels for any basement flooring work so that your new floor lasts as long as possible. Some older properties may require asbestos testing before we remove existing flooring materials, but we can discuss this as we plan the project.
Before the Install: Preparing Your House for Seamless Floor Installation
Sometimes it’s possible to install floors over existing floors to reduce labor and disposal costs. This approach builds on top of the existing floor height, so extra consideration has to be made for transitions and door clearances. You get faster project completion with less mess in your Ottawa home.
This technique only works in special circumstances and normally we would demolish or remove the existing floor. Vinyl and laminate are commonly laid over stable tile or well-bonded sheet vinyl. We do not recommend this method over damaged, uneven, or moisture-compromised surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

We like to line everything up in advance so that the flooring install is within 5 days, although it can be faster for a single level install. That usually means moving all furniture out the week before to give the installers free reign during the installation.
-
Engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, and porcelain tile are typical in Ottawa. Wood can easily handle Ottawa's climate when installed indoors. In areas like a mudroom where we might see more grit, salt and even some snow coming off boots, we like to install a LVP or tile which are more durable than wood.
-
