What goes into it

One Floor, From the Old One Out to the Last Baseboard

  1. Before

    Removal & prep

The same house, step by step

  1. A bedroom with new subfloor sheets down.

    Prep

    New subfloor down

    New subfloor sheets went down first, ready for the floor.

  2. Paint cans on a bare subfloor in a freshly painted living room.

    Paint first

    Walls painted before the floor

    The walls were painted while the subfloor was still bare, so the new floor never saw a drip.

  3. A new wood-look plank floor meeting a white brick hearth, with a border piece around it.

    Edges

    A border at the hearth

    A finishing piece runs around the hearth, so the floor looks like it was always there.

  4. A living room with a white brick fireplace and a new plank floor.

    Done

    One floor, room to room

    The new floor runs from the living room through the house.

  • Bedrooms

    Quiet underfoot and easy to keep clean.

  • Hallways

    One floor from room to room, with no break at the doorways.

  • Laundry rooms

    Many planks are made to handle spills; check the rating of yours.

  • Over a slab

    Many Bradenton homes sit on concrete; the slab gets clean and flat first.

  • Condos

    Tell us if your building has rules for what goes under the floor.

  • Damp mop: warm water, no wax.

  • Felt pads: under furniture legs.

  • Sun: look at colors in your own light before you pick.

  • Rating: read the water rating named on your estimate.

Questions

Luxury vinyl plank questions we hear in Bradenton

How much does LVP installation cost in Bradenton?

It depends on the plank you choose, the size of the rooms and how much prep the floor underneath needs. We measure at a free walkthrough and give you the full price upfront, in writing, with the exact product named, before we start.

Can vinyl plank go over a concrete slab?

Yes. Many Bradenton homes are built on a slab, and vinyl plank goes over it well once the old floor is out and the slab is clean and flat. We scrape off what's left and fill the low spots first.

Is luxury vinyl plank waterproof?

Many planks are sold as waterproof or water-resistant, and the rating changes from product to product. Your estimate names the exact plank, so you can check its rating before you decide.

What is a wear layer?

It’s the clear top layer of a vinyl plank. Its thickness is measured in mils (a mil is a thousandth of an inch, not a millimeter), and we write it on your estimate so you know exactly what you’re getting.

Do you take out the old floor?

Yes. We take out the old floor and prep the slab or subfloor before the new one goes in. See old floor removal and prep.
