How important is subfloor preparation for laminate?

It's the most important step. An uneven subfloor will cause planks to flex, separate at the seams, and eventually break. We spend a significant amount of time ensuring your subfloor is perfectly flat and stable before a single plank is laid.

Will you install laminate in my basement?

Absolutely. For below-grade installations like basements, we are extra cautious. We insist on using a high-quality underlayment with a built-in vapour barrier to protect your new floor from any potential moisture coming up through the concrete slab.

What's the difference between a good and a great laminate installation?

It's entirely in the details. A great installation has no visible gaps between planks, a random and natural-looking plank pattern, and precise cuts around door jambs and trim. It also includes properly installed transitions between rooms and a floor that is quiet to walk on.

Our Approach to a Flawless Laminate Installation

It all begins with a conversation and a close look at your space. We need to understand not just what you want, but what the room needs. We check for moisture, assess the current subfloor, and plan the layout to minimize waste and maximize the visual appeal. Rushing this stage is a recipe for problems down the road, so we take our time to get it right.

The Foundation: Subfloor and Underlayment

You can't see the subfloor once the laminate is down, but you can certainly feel it if it’s not prepared correctly. We grind down high spots, fill in low spots, and ensure the entire surface is flat and stable. This single step is the most critical part of preventing that annoying 'bounce' or creaking you find in poorly installed floors. Once the subfloor is perfect, we install the correct underlayment, taping every seam meticulously to create a proper moisture barrier and cushion.

Plank-by-Plank Precision

Laying the laminate is a methodical process. We check each board for defects before it goes down. We carefully measure and maintain the necessary expansion gap around the entire perimeter of the room—this is vital to prevent the floor from buckling with seasonal changes in humidity. Every cut, whether it's for a doorway, a vent, or a corner, is made with precision. We don't use filler to hide bad cuts; we make the cuts correctly the first time. The final result is a beautiful, durable indoor surface that we can stand behind. When you're ready for an installation that focuses on quality, give us a call at (647) 898-7839.

"My project was a little over 1000 sq ft of hardwood flooring, 350 ft of baseboard trim, 350 feet of door stop and 10 sq ft of tile in front of a fireplace. Upon completion, the rooms looked fabulous for 2 reasons. One was the natural warmth and elegance of wood flooring and secondly, the workmanship of Rudy and his crew. The quality and professionalism of the job was no more evident then where the tile and wood met. The tile was raised to the level of the wood thickness and the 2 met each other at an odd angle. The transition between the 2 surfaces was seamless and flawless and no transition pieces were required to hide any shortcomings. I was most impressed with this part of the job as only an experienced professional would do such a perfect job. In addition, Rudy and his crew were very courteous and cleaned up the mess after each days work. Even though I invited them to bring their saws and cutters indoors because it was cold, they insisted on doing this part of the job outdoor to minimise the mess in my home. I would definitely recommend Rudy and his crew to anyone seeking to have their flooring done. He is reasonably priced and offers quality work in exchange. Thanks Rudy and crew. Great Job."
