Removal & preparation
Existing carpet or hard flooring can be removed, and visible subfloor conditions and transitions are reviewed before installation.
Preparation before installation
A better floor starts underneath
Flooring changes the feel of an entire room. We work with carpet, vinyl plank, laminate, hardwood and tile, reviewing the existing surface, movement between rooms and the details needed at walls, doors, stairs and adjoining finishes.

What the work can include
Clean lines from room to room
Material choice matters, but preparation, layout, thresholds, baseboards and stairs determine how complete the result feels.
Material-specific installation
Carpet, vinyl plank, laminate, hardwood and tile each receive the layout and installation approach the selected material requires.
Trim & transitions
Baseboards, nosings, thresholds and doorway details complete the installation.

Flooring that connects with better storage
Carpet came out of three rooms before cool gray-brown plank flooring, new doors, casing and baseboards connected the upper level. The project also added and enlarged closets for better everyday use.
