How soon should I call after discovering water damage?

You should call as soon as possible. The faster the water is removed and the drying process begins, the better the chance of saving your flooring and preventing secondary damage like mould growth in the subfloor.

Can my water-damaged hardwood floor be saved?

It depends entirely on the extent and duration of the water exposure. Minor cupping may be salvageable with proper drying and refinishing. However, severe buckling or planks that have been saturated for a long time often require replacement. A detailed, in-person assessment is the only way to know for sure.

Do you work with insurance companies?

Yes, absolutely. We can provide detailed, itemized reports and quotes that document the extent of the damage and the precise steps required for repair, which you can then submit for your insurance claim.

Our Methodical Approach to Water Damage

A proper repair starts with a thorough, instrument-based assessment. We never rely on guesswork. Using professional moisture meters, we map out the full extent of the water intrusion in both your flooring and, critically, the subfloor beneath. This step is non-negotiable for us because it dictates the entire repair strategy. Identifying the boundaries of the damage ensures we address all affected areas, leaving no hidden moisture behind that could cause problems down the road.

Subfloor Dehumidification and Preparation

Simply replacing the top layer of flooring is a temporary fix. True restoration requires a perfectly dry and stable foundation. We take the time to properly dehumidify the subfloor using specialized equipment. This critical phase prevents the growth of mould and mildew and ensures the new flooring won't warp or buckle due to residual moisture. We check and re-check our readings until we are absolutely certain the subfloor is ready for new flooring. This patience and precision is the key to a long-lasting, quality repair.

Seamless Flooring Repair and Replacement

Once the subfloor is certified dry, we move on to the visible repair. Whether you have hardwood, laminate, or luxury vinyl plank, our goal is a seamless result. For salvageable floors, we carefully repair damaged sections. If replacement is necessary, we source materials to match your existing floor as closely as possible in grain, colour, and finish. Our installation process is exacting, ensuring tight seams, level surfaces, and a finish that integrates perfectly with the undamaged portions of your room. We only work on indoor flooring, allowing us to specialize in the materials and techniques best suited for your home's interior.

"Just like everyone out there trying to upgrade their home, we decided to update the living room flooring from old dirty carpet to nice low maintenance Laminate. Thinking we could do it ourselves as DIY folks. Well like all great projects, we failed to estimate the cost of the tools to do the project and our lack of expertise. In desperation, after installing the underlay, we realized we could not do the job. I was extremely luck in finding Rudy from Delightflooring. He was able to response to my email within 30 minutes and was available to start the next day on installation of our living room floor. His service is exceptional and perhaps one of the best floor installers in Canada. He worked without breaks and hard installing the floor. It came out extremely beautiful. He brought amazing tools to do the job and did the job without error on first time cuts. He tackled difficult corners and was able to make the installation seamless. Would I recommend this installer to anyone. YES YES YES. He deserves an award for being the most conscious, clean and precise installer in the construction business. We need more like him with this kind of skill and customer service."

Fair market pricing I always get multiple quotes for projects so I know the pricing was competitive. Pleasant to work with and accommodating. Quick to return calls and e-mails. Will have Rudy back to install another job later this year in 2014."
