Qualified Luxury Vinyl Flooring Installers
We recommend using our team of skilled vinyl installation professionals when installing your new luxury vinyl floors. Truly good installers are hard to find, and we’ve curated a team you can trust with a long history of quality installations in Modesto & our surrounding communities.
Preparation is Essential Before Vinyl Installation
- Our installers will likely need to remove your existing flooring. To minimize dust during this process, vacuum your old floors before they’re removed and vacuum the subfloor underneath thoroughly afterward.
- Decide who will move your furniture, whether it be your responsibility or that of our team. Be sure to remove all fragile items from the room & don’t leave anything hanging on windows or walls.
- We’ll conduct a professional measurement that includes door clearances. If the vinyl you’ve chosen will be thicker than your existing floor, be aware that door bottoms may need to be shaved down so they not drag or cause damage.
- If you’re planning to paint, wallpaper, or do any other remodeling in the room, please complete these tasks before your new vinyl is installed. Be sure to hold on to your extra paint to touch up any post-installation nicks.
- In general, we’ll recommend that your vinyl planks run parallel to windows or, in narrow rooms, to the longest wall.
During & After Tile Flooring Installation
Here’s the procedure our experienced installation professionals will follow:
- Consider your current floors – vinyl floors can be installed directly over some types of flooring, but others may need to be removed first. Your installers will know what to expect when they arrive & will level out the surface so it’s smooth.
- We’ll conduct moisture testing in the subfloor to prevent potential buckling or cupping down the line.
- We’ll then cut & place your planks or tiles, leaving a perimeter gap to allow for potential expansion.
- If you have an irregularly-shaped room, rest assured that our team will know how to handle all of your odd or tight spaces, including cabinetry or kitchen islands.
Your Floors Plus flooring specialist will consult with you directly about any additional actions we may recommend before the installation of your new vinyl floors.
