How much does flooring installation cost in Markham?

The main factors are material: engineered wood, solid hardwood, tile or stone; subfloor levelling and repair; and stairs, transitions and trim.

Is engineered hardwood real wood?

Yes. It has a real hardwood top layer bonded to a stable core, which makes it less prone to gapping and suitable over concrete or heated floors.

Can wood flooring go in a basement?

Engineered wood can, on a suitable subfloor system with moisture control. Solid hardwood is not recommended below grade.

Flooring Installation in Markham

A floor is only as good as what is under it. We fix and level the subfloor first, then install hardwood, engineered wood, tile or stone to a consistent finish through the house. In Markham, the city mixes 1970s and 1980s subdivisions with newer communities such as Cornell and historic cores in Unionville and Markham Village.

Before you start

What to know.

Subfloor
Uneven or loose subfloors cause gaps, cracked tile and squeaks. Fixing them is the part of the job that decides how the floor performs.
Choosing the material
Solid hardwood can be refinished many times but moves with humidity. Engineered wood is more stable, which matters over concrete and in-floor heating.
Continuous floors
Running one floor through the main level without thresholds makes rooms read as larger, but it needs the levels to be planned before installation.
