Our skilled team will efficiently take care of removing your existing tack strip and nails, ensuring that the finished result looks polished and professional.
Once the removal is complete, we will carefully prepare the subfloor to establish the perfect foundation for your new flooring. This comprehensive preparation includes cleaning, leveling, and addressing any imperfections that may be present, all aimed at providing a smooth, stable, and durable surface that will enhance both the longevity and aesthetic appeal of your chosen flooring.
Floor Preparation Process
OUR CAREFUL PREPERATION DELIVERS A BEAUTIFUL FLOOR
Getting floors ready for installation or refinishing requires clearing the space, taking out old tack strip and nails that held the carpeting, and making sure the subfloor is clean, dry, and level. The essential steps consist of removing the old flooring, addressing squeaks with screws, and applying leveling compound for dips.
Removing Tack Strips:
- New Flooring: When installing hardwood or luxury vinyl plank, it's essential to remove tack strips, as these flooring types demand a smooth, even surface.
- Damaged Free Removal: Professional removal of the strips will prevent damage to the underlying floor, which is particularly crucial when refinishing a hardwood surface.
