How To Prepare For Your Flooring Installation

With each flooring installation will come a slightly different experience, but here are some basics that you can expect regardless of your choice in flooring:

  • Your installation crew will walk you through the entire process prior to installation to answer any questions that you might have.
  • All furniture should be removed from the room(s) in question prior to our arrival to make for a simple installation process. 
  • All children and pets should be vacated from the installation area for their own personal safety and that of the installation crew.
  • When the installation is finished, you should ventilate the room for 24-48 hours.
