Whether you’re opting for luxurious carpets, sleek hardwood, or modern tiles, proper preparation is key to ensuring a smooth and successful installation process. By following a few simple steps, you can set the stage for a beautiful and hassle-free flooring transformation for your home. In this blog post, we will guide you through the essential preparations needed to make your home ready for a new flooring installation.
Before the installation day arrives, clear the room of all furniture, décor, and personal belongings. This includes removing any rugs, wall hangings, or curtains. Clearing the space not only makes it easier for the installers to work but also protects your items from potential damage during the process.
Take a close look at your subfloor to ensure it’s in good condition. Look for any signs of water damage, cracks, or unevenness. If you notice any issues, consult a professional to address them before the installation begins. A sturdy and even subfloor is essential for a stable and long-lasting flooring installation.
Accurate measurements are crucial when ordering flooring materials. Measure the room carefully, accounting for any irregularities or unique angles. Once you have the measurements, consult with a flooring supplier to determine the right amount of material required. Ordering slightly more than needed can be beneficial, allowing for any cutting errors or future repairs. If you’re needing help with your measurements, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
