The installation process is not hard, but the first thing that you need to keep in mind is that the floor surface must be flat. If there are gouges or the floor rises in certain spots, it will be showing right after the installation of the laminate flooring. It’s important to properly remove the carpet and carpet holding strips, and clear out the area from nails, staples, dust, and everything that could be on the way between the new laminate floor and the subfloor that we will be installing it on.

To help customers understand what to expect, we often provide a general price range per square foot.

DIY videos make floor sanding look easy—but it’s not. Sanding hardwood requires pro-grade equipment, multiple sanding stages, and flawless finish work. One skipped step can ruin the result.

Laminate or engineered flooring is much simpler to install, and a great option if you’re on a budget. Need help deciding? Give us a call—we’re happy to guide you – (224) 306-9753

The refinishing process usually spans 1-2 and 3 to 5 days, encompassing sanding, staining (if desired), and applying protective finishes. After the final coat:

  • Walking: Light foot traffic is generally permitted after 3-24 hours.

  • Furniture: It’s advisable to wait 48 hours before moving furniture back.

  • Rugs: Wait at least 7 days before placing rugs to ensure the finish cures properly.

Drying times can vary based on the type of finish used (water-based vs. oil-based) and environmental conditions.

Traditional sanding can produce significant dust. However, professional companies offer dustless sanding options, utilizing advanced equipment to capture up to 99% of airborne dust, resulting in a cleaner and healthier environment during and after the process.
