Subfloor first
Flatness checked with a straightedge and corrected with levelling compound or sanding — not hidden under thicker underlay.

Flooring
Hardwood, engineered, laminate, luxury vinyl and tile — installed over a subfloor that's been checked, not assumed.
Overview
Most flooring complaints — hollow spots, squeaks, cupping, cracked grout lines — trace back to the subfloor, the moisture content or the expansion gap, not the product.
We check subfloor flatness and moisture before anything is opened, let material acclimatise, and install to the manufacturer's spec so the warranty actually stands.

Moisture
Concrete slabs tested before glue-down or floating installs. Skipping this is how a basement floor cups six months later.
Layout
Runs set out from the sightline that matters, so you don't end up with a sliver rip at the room's focal wall.
Tile detail
Proper uncoupling or backer where it's called for, consistent joint width, and grout colour agreed before the bag opens.

Walkthrough
We go over the finished work together, cover maintenance, and stand behind what we built.
Questions
Straight answers.
Can you install over my existing floor?
Sometimes — floating floors can go over sound, flat, well-bonded tile or vinyl. We check condition and height at door openings first.
How long should flooring acclimatise?
Typically 48–72 hours in the room it's going into, with the heat on. Manufacturer spec wins where it differs.
Do you move furniture?
Yes, we can — it's quoted as part of the job. Anything fragile or high-value is better handled by you.
Do you do basements?
Yes. Below grade we steer toward vinyl plank or tile over a moisture barrier rather than solid hardwood, for reasons that show up in year two.
