Laminate Installation In Vancouver, WA
We are proud to be your laminate installation experts, and these helpful steps will help the process go as smoothly as possible inside your home.
Before Laminate Installation:
First, remove all furniture, electronics, and wall hangings from the rooms getting the new laminate, as well as the closets in these rooms. Your new laminate might be able to be installed as a floating floor over the existing surface! If not, the old flooring will need to be pulled up, removed entirely, and properly disposed of. Bring the new laminate into the home to acclimate before installation for 48 hours prior.
During Laminate Installation:
When the big day comes, you need to plan to be home during installation. You need to be on hand to answer any questions that arise and designate an area for the crew to keep tools and cut pieces as needed. Keep all kids, pets, and family members away from the rooms receiving new laminate and away from the designated work area. New laminate installation can take around one to two days, with floating installation possibly even faster!
After Laminate Installation:
Floating installation will require less of a wait time after installation then glue-down laminate, and your installer will provide the waiting period before it’s appropriate to walk on the floor. When you bring furniture back in the room, use proper moving equipment with wheels or lift entirely. Never drag furniture across your laminate floors and use felt pads underneath legs to reduce impact. You can begin sweeping, dust-mopping, and mopping with a gentle cleaner to clean your new laminate floors.
