Professional Vinyl Flooring Repair & Installation

• Vinyl planks
• Vinyl sheets

Vinyl planks give you the appearance of real hardwood floors without the high costs or maintenance. Luxury vinyl planks take this one step further with thicker planks and wear layers, high-quality visual layers, edge treatments, warranties, and more! Vinyl tile can be arranged to create patterns and is easier to repair when damaged. Vinyl sheets provide a seamless floor covering perfect for high-moisture areas that would warp real wood.

No matter what type of vinyl flooring you want, we can install it anywhere in your home! We’ll take the necessary time to prepare the subfloor by filling in holes and sanding down high spots, for a quality fit, finish, and look.

Here are answers to some of your most frequently asked questions about vinyl flooring repair and installation.

How long does vinyl flooring installation take?

How long it takes to install vinyl flooring depends on the amount of flooring, the condition of the subfloor, and the type of vinyl.

• Professional vinyl installation in a typical kitchen or bathroom can take several hours. Installing around 1,000 sq. ft. of vinyl can take days.
• If the subfloor contains too much moisture or is unlevel, the issues must be corrected, typically adding time to the installation process.
• Sheet, tile, and plank vinyl flooring each require a specific installation process. Tile and plank vinyl, for example, need time to acclimate to a home's temperature and humidity before installation.

What helps repair damaged vinyl flooring?

Vinyl flooring repair can tackle scratches, holes, tears, and peeling, depending on the type of vinyl and the degree of damage.

• A foam eraser is ideal for removing minor scratches and scuff marks.
• Liquid vinyl seam sealer works well for small cuts and vinyl floor scratch repair.
• A vinyl repair kit is handy for small holes, tears, and other minor damage.
• A putty knife and vinyl adhesive can usually remedy peeling.
• Large damaged areas for sheet flooring may require the help of a vinyl floor repair service. For tile or plank vinyl, replacing the damaged piece is the best solution.

What are the different types of vinyl flooring?

From traditional sheet vinyl to the latest tiles and planks, vinyl flooring provides a versatile solution for any space.

• Sheet vinyl is most suitable for larger areas and areas subject to moisture.
• Vinyl plank flooring is more robust and durable than typical sheet vinyl and often resembles natural wood with a wide selection of patterns and colors.
• Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a step up in quality and appearance compared to traditional vinyl plank flooring.
• Vinyl tile is often scratch- and stain-resistant and resembles conventional ceramic and other tile. Because the flooring is installed in pieces, vinyl tile is perfect for a tailor-made look.
• Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) delivers the versatility of conventional vinyl tile with a premium look.

How do I maintain my vinyl flooring?

With adequate maintenance, you should only need to deep clean your vinyl flooring every six months or less.

• Vacuum or sweep at least weekly. If you use a vacuum cleaner, disengage the beater bar to prevent damage.
• Damp mop every two weeks using a pH-neutral cleaner, ensuring the floor doesn't get too wet.
• Remove stains ASAP with a cleaning cloth and liquid dish soap.
• Install protective covers on furniture legs to prevent scratches and other damage.
• Place rugs in heavily trafficked areas to minimize wear and protect your vinyl floor from dings and scratches.
