Vinyl Plank Flooring in Hillsburgh

Here in Hillsburgh, a home's floor should be both beautiful and correctly installed. We specialize in one thing: getting indoor vinyl plank flooring right, down to the last millimeter. The difference between a floor that looks good for a year and one that looks great for twenty is all in the details of the preparation and installation. We believe a job isn't finished until it's perfect, ensuring every plank aligns, every seam is tight, and the final result is something you'll be proud to walk on.

The Foundation: Subfloor Preparation is Everything

A vinyl plank floor is only as good as the surface it rests on. Before a single plank is laid, we conduct a thorough inspection and preparation of your subfloor. This is the most critical step and one we never rush. We meticulously check for any unevenness, as even small dips or bumps can cause planks to flex, separate, or create hollow sounds over time. We use high-quality leveling compounds to create a perfectly flat, smooth surface. We also ensure the subfloor is completely clean, dry, and free of any debris that could compromise the installation. For us, perfect preparation isn't an option; it's the only way to guarantee a silent, solid, and long-lasting indoor floor.

Our Methodical Installation Process

Once the subfloor is perfect, we begin the installation with a carefully considered plan. We don't just start laying planks from the nearest wall. We measure the room to determine the best starting point for a balanced, visually appealing layout that minimizes small, awkward-looking cuts on the far side. Every plank is inspected before it's laid. We pay close attention to staggering the seams between planks, avoiding predictable patterns that look unnatural and can weaken the floor's structure. Cuts around door casings, vents, and cabinetry are made with precision tools for a clean, tight fit that requires no caulk to hide gaps. This methodical approach ensures the finished floor looks seamless and integrated into your home's architecture.

Finishing Touches That Make the Difference

Our work isn't done when the last plank is clicked into place. The finishing details are what distinguish a professional job from an amateur one. We carefully reinstall baseboards and trim, ensuring clean lines and tight corners. We use the correct transition strips between the new vinyl and other flooring types, like carpet or tile, for a smooth and safe change in elevation. After the installation is complete, we conduct a full clean-up of the area, leaving your space ready to live in. We walk you through the final result, making sure every detail meets our high standards—and more importantly, yours.
