Flooring Installation in Shorewood

Shorewood flooring for the rooms that get wet

Our crew installs luxury vinyl plank, laminate, engineered hardwood and tile. Tile is our usual pick for baths, entries and laundry rooms, and luxury vinyl handles most kitchens and living areas. Either one needs a surface that meets the manufacturer's flatness spec, so we level, patch or sand the subfloor before anything goes down. Base, shoe molding and transitions come with the job.

We cover Shorewood, coming in on I-55, Route 59, Route 52 and Black Road, with the DuPage River running through town. If your Shorewood laundry room or back entry takes water, snow melt and salt all winter, the floor in that room should be one that can handle it. Tile needs a stiff subfloor and the right backer underneath or the grout cracks, so we check how much the floor flexes before we lay anything out. We pull the washer and dryer, set the tile, then reconnect the water lines, the drain hose and the dryer vent once the grout has cured.

What a Shorewood tile or plank floor includes

How a Shorewood floor job runs

We measure the rooms and check the subfloor on a free visit, then send a written estimate. It lists the tear-out, the backer, the tile or plank and the trim on separate lines. If the old floor comes up and the subfloor is water-damaged from an old washer leak, you see it, get a written price and approve it before we replace it. We give you the days the laundry will be out of service, keep to them, and walk the room with you once everything is reconnected.

• Subfloor checked for flex before tile
• Washer and dryer reconnected when we finish
• Backer chosen for the room
• Days without laundry named up front
• Water damage priced before repair
• Threshold and transitions finished
