The top benefits of Professional Flooring Installation

Contemplating laying your new flooring yourself? Here are some things to consider that make a professional installation worth the extra money.

Save time and money
Although you might think that you are saving yourself time and money, you might get a surprise at how long it takes for the DIYer to remove old or install new flooring. Professional installers have years of experience to ensure that the job is completed in a timely manner. Although you may save yourself some money upfront, you have to consider the time it takes you and extra tools you might have to buy or hire for the process. If flooring is not laid correctly it can cause issues that may have to be rectified in the future.

Floor Preparation
Laying new flooring is not quite as simple as removing the old material and laying the new. Usually in a renovation, and especially with vinyl flooring, there is some floor preparation needed to ensure the flooring is laid correctly. Issues within the sub floor can be detrimental to the laying of the product and to achieving the desired finished product.

Installation Warranty
When flooring is laid yourself, you void any manufacturer’s warranty for issues that may arise because the flooring has been installed incorrectly. With such a big outlay for new flooring, most people would like some piece of mind if something goes wrong.

All the right tools
Professional installers will have all the tools and materials needed to get your job completed. From a flooring stripper to remove old vinyl, to a carpet stretcher to get the perfect finish, these are all items you would have to consider buying or hiring if you installed the flooring yourself.
