How to Prepare Your Home for Flooring Installation
Expert Tips from Jacksonville’s Flooring Authorities
Installing new floors is an exciting upgrade, but proper preparation is the key to a flawless result. At Advanced Flooring Removal (AFR), we know that a well-prepared home leads to a faster, cleaner, and more efficient project.
1. Clear the Space
Move furniture, décor, and valuables. Flooring contractors need full, unobstructed access to the subfloor to ensure precision.
2. Professional Removal
Old flooring must be extracted properly. AFR uses dust contained technology to ensure your subfloor is clean and level for the new install.
3. HVAC Protection
While our process is dust contained, we recommend covering vents and hanging plastic over doorways to protect your home’s air system.
Key Installation Logistics
- Appliances: Unplug and move refrigerators, stoves, and washers. Ensure water and gas lines are safely shut off before the crew arrives.
- Acclimation: Hardwood and LVP need to adjust to your home’s climate. Ensure materials are on-site 48–72 hours prior to installation.
- Safety: Keep pets and children in a quiet, off-limits area. Installation involves heavy foot traffic and high-powered machinery.
