Flooring Installation in Naperville, IL

Naperville flooring, including the stairs

We install luxury vinyl plank, tile, laminate and engineered hardwood, and luxury vinyl and tile are what most people ask for. Before any of it goes down, we hold the floor to the flatness spec the manufacturer sets, because a plank laid over a dip will flex, click and eventually separate. That means grinding high seams, filling low spots and sanding or screwing down anything that moves. Base, shoe and transitions are on the same estimate.

We cover Naperville on both the DuPage County and Will County sides, reaching it on I-88, Route 59, Ogden Avenue and 75th Street. If your Naperville house has carpet on the stairs and you want hard floor upstairs, the stairs are the part that takes the most care. Each step gets a new tread and riser, and the nosing has to match the floor at the top and bottom landings so the color carries through. We measure every step on its own, since stairs are rarely as even as they look, and we scribe each tread to the wall.

What a Naperville floor and stair job includes

Carpet and tack strip pulled

Carpet, pad, tack strip and staples come out of the rooms and off the stairs, and the debris leaves with us.

Stair treads and risers

Each step gets a new tread and riser, cut to that step's own width and depth.

Matching stair nosing

Nosing matched to the floor so the top landing and the first step read as one surface.

Subfloor screwed and flattened

Loose or squeaky spots get screwed down and high seams sanded before the new floor goes in.

Rooms, halls and closets

We carry the floor into closets and down halls so the change in floor stops at the doors you choose.

Trim finished out

Base, shoe and transitions installed, with caulk and paint touch-up where the trim meets the wall.

How we run a Naperville floor and stair job

The estimate starts with a visit where we measure each room and count and measure every stair. You get it in writing with the rooms and the stairs priced on separate lines, so you can do one now and the other later if you want. Anything we find under the carpet, like a damaged subfloor panel, gets priced and approved by you before we fix it. We tell you which day the stairs will be off limits and plan around it, then walk the finished floor and every step with you.

FAQ

Flooring Installation in Naperville: questions

Can you put luxury vinyl over the carpet on my stairs?

No. Luxury vinyl never goes over carpet, on stairs or anywhere else. The carpet, pad and tack strip come off, and the new treads and risers go on the bare stair.

How long does a Naperville stair and upstairs floor job take?

The rooms usually take two to three days, and a full staircase adds one to two more, depending on the number of steps and what shape the old stairs are in. We give you the schedule in writing.

Do you work on both sides of Naperville?

Yes. We cover the DuPage County and Will County parts of Naperville, and we also install floors in Lisle, Woodridge, Warrenville and Wheaton.

Do I need a permit for new floors in Naperville?

A floor replacement on its own usually does not, but we confirm with the city of Naperville during the estimate. If the job grows to include plumbing or wall changes that need a permit, we pull it.

How do I get a price?

Call or text (815) 585-1750 with photos of the rooms and the stairs. We will come out, measure and write it up.
