Flooring Installation in Burr Ridge

Engineered hardwood and plank flooring in Burr Ridge

We install engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, laminate and tile, along with stair treads, risers and nosing. Each of those floors comes with a flatness limit from its maker, and we check the subfloor against it, then level, patch or sand until it passes. Wood products get time in the house to adjust before install, so they do not shrink or swell after they are down. We take care of the base, shoe and transitions as part of the installation.

We reach Burr Ridge on I-55 and County Line Road and work along Route 83, on both the DuPage and Cook county sides. Where a house has open rooms and long sight lines, wide planks show every flaw in the subfloor, because a longer, wider board bridges a dip instead of following it. That is why we straightedge the whole area, not a sample spot, before engineered hardwood goes down. We also check the indoor humidity, since wood floors move with the seasons and need the gap at the walls their maker calls for.

What we include on a Burr Ridge floor

How a Burr Ridge flooring job runs

We start with a free on-site estimate where we measure, check the subfloor across every room and take a humidity reading. The written scope lists the product, the install method, the acclimation time and the trim. Anything hidden that turns up after the old floor comes out gets a written price and waits for your approval. We schedule the install after the wood has acclimated and walk the finished floor with you.

• Wood acclimated before it goes down
• Flatness checked across every room
