Choose Your Surface

The two products we specialize in — plus the floating-floor method behind most modern installations.

Luxury Vinyl Plank Installation

Luxury Vinyl Plank is one of the most popular flooring choices for busy homes — it is durable, easy to maintain, and available in a broad variety of wood-inspired colors and plank styles. Many products offer strong water resistance, which makes LVP a frequent choice for kitchens, entryways, and lower levels.

Performance varies by product line, so we always defer to the specific manufacturer's specifications and warranty for moisture ratings and wear layers. During your in-home estimate we will help you compare the products you are considering and install your selection according to the manufacturer's requirements.

Laminate Flooring Installation

Laminate flooring delivers the appearance of natural wood across a wide variety of colors, plank widths, textures, and price points. It is a practical way to get a warm, wood-look floor while staying inside a budget.

Durability and moisture resistance vary by manufacturer and product, so we will walk through the specifications of the laminate you choose and prepare your subfloor and underlayment to match the product's installation requirements.

Floating Floor Installation

Most modern LVP and laminate products install as a "floating floor" — the planks click together and rest over the prepared subfloor rather than being glued or nailed down across the entire surface. This allows the floor to expand and contract naturally with the seasons.

A floating floor is only as good as the surface beneath it and the expansion spacing around it, which is why measurement, subfloor preparation, and trim details are part of every Summit Flooring installation. Final installation requirements always follow the selected manufacturer's instructions.

The Groundwork

Beneath Every Great Floor

A lasting floor starts with what is underneath it. We remove the old surface and prepare the subfloor before a single new plank goes down — and anything we could not see beforehand is talked through with you first.

Existing Flooring Tear-Out

Careful removal and disposal of your old flooring as part of the agreed project scope.

  • Remove the existing flooring in your estimate
  • Haul away the debris included in the scope
  • Leave the area ready for subfloor prep

If materials are suspected to contain asbestos or other hazardous substances, they require evaluation and handling by qualified professionals first. Summit Flooring does not remove hazardous materials.

Subfloor Inspection & Preparation

Cleaning, flatness evaluation, and surface preparation so your new floor performs the way it should.

  • Cleaning and loose-debris removal
  • Flatness evaluation
  • Visible-damage identification
  • Minor surface correction within the agreed scope

Hidden damage, moisture, or larger repairs are communicated to you before any additional work proceeds.

The Finish

The Details That Make It Done

Trim, molding, transitions, and a final walkthrough — the finishing work that frames the floor and leaves your space move-in ready.

Baseboard & Trim Installation

  • Frame the room and protect the wall line
  • Cover the floor's expansion spacing
  • New baseboards or reuse your existing trim

Quarter Round & Shoe Molding

  • Bridge the floor and baseboard
  • Cover the expansion gap with a clean, continuous line
  • Profile and finish options reviewed at your estimate

Room Transitions & Finishing

  • Between different flooring materials
  • Through doorways and room to room
  • At changes in floor height

Final Cleanup & Walkthrough

  • Clean the agreed project area
  • Remove the installation debris in the scope
  • A room-by-room walkthrough with you

You choose the floor. We handle everything else.

Installation Questions, Answered

Yes — when removal is included in your estimate, we tear out the existing flooring, haul away the debris in the scope, and prepare the area for the new floor. Materials suspected to contain asbestos or other hazardous substances require qualified professionals; Summit Flooring does not remove hazardous materials.

Yes. Once the old flooring is out we clean the subfloor, check its flatness, identify visible damage, and correct minor surface irregularities within the agreed scope. Hidden damage, moisture, or larger repairs are discussed with you before any additional work proceeds.

Yes. Baseboard and trim, quarter round and shoe molding, and room transitions between different materials, doorways, and changes in floor height are all part of the finishing work we plan with you during the estimate.

It depends on the size of the project, the rooms involved, and the preparation required. We will give you a realistic timeline along with your written estimate.

Conditions that could not reasonably be identified before removal are communicated to you before any additional work proceeds. Structural repair, moisture remediation, or major leveling are separate scopes that need their own inspection and approval.

We will review what needs to be cleared during your in-home estimate, so you know exactly what to expect before installation day.

We specialize in Luxury Vinyl Plank and laminate — including floating-floor installation — along with all of the tear-out, subfloor preparation, trim, and transition work around them.
