Services
Material, handled properly.
Each material has its own preparation, layout logic and finishing detail. Here's how we approach all eight.
01
Hardwood
The timeless choice.
Solid hardwood is the most character-rich floor you can put in a home — and the least forgiving to install.
Ideal applications
- Living and dining rooms
- Bedrooms and hallways
- Main-floor whole-home installs
- Stairs and landings
Material considerations
- Subfloor flatness and moisture readings
- Material acclimatization before install
- Plank width and layout direction
- Transitions, thresholds and trim details
02
Engineered Hardwood
Natural character. Modern performance.
Engineered hardwood keeps a genuine wood wear layer over a dimensionally stable core, which opens up rooms where solid wood is harder to justify.
Ideal applications
- Wide-plank main floors
- Basements and lower levels
- Condos and multi-unit interiors
- Open-concept spaces
Material considerations
- Glue-down, float or fasten, based on the product
- Substrate preparation and levelling
- Wear-layer thickness and finish
- Sound and underlay requirements in shared buildings
03
Luxury Vinyl Plank
Designed for real life.
Luxury vinyl plank has become the default choice for busy households and high-traffic commercial interiors — and modern products look far better than their reputation suggests.
Ideal applications
- Kitchens and entryways
- Basements and rec rooms
- Rental and multi-unit interiors
- Retail and office spaces
Material considerations
- Substrate flatness and cleanliness
- Plank direction and pattern offset
- Underlay selection where required
- Follow the manufacturer's stated specifications
04
Laminate
Considered, and considerate of budget.
Laminate remains one of the most cost-effective ways to change the entire feel of a space, and current products hold a convincing wood look.
Ideal applications
- Bedrooms and hallways
- Whole-home refreshes
- Rental turnovers
- Budget-conscious renovations
Material considerations
- Perimeter expansion gaps
- Underlay and moisture barrier where required
- Seam alignment and end-joint stagger
- Door casings and threshold details
05
Ceramic & Porcelain Tile
Precision, from tile to tile.
Tile is the least forgiving flooring there is. Every decision — where the first tile lands, how the grout lines run — is visible for the life of the floor.
Ideal applications
- Bathrooms and powder rooms
- Kitchens and mudrooms
- Entryways and hallways
- Commercial washrooms and lobbies
Material considerations
- Substrate flatness for large-format tile
- Layout set-out and cut placement
- Grout joint width and colour
- Movement joints and transitions
06
Marble Tile
Stone, handled with respect.
Marble is the most demanding material a floor or wall can be finished in, and the most rewarding when it's laid properly.
Ideal applications
- Ensuite and principal bathrooms
- Feature entryways
- Shower walls and niches
- Accent floors and thresholds
Material considerations
- Dry-lay and vein sequencing
- Suitable setting materials for natural stone
- Edge details, mitres and thresholds
- Sealing and ongoing care as advised by the supplier
07
Carpet
Softness, underfoot.
Carpet still does things no hard surface can: it softens sound, warms a room, and makes bedrooms and stairs more comfortable to live on.
Ideal applications
- Bedrooms
- Stairs and landings
- Basements and family rooms
- Offices and quiet commercial areas
Material considerations
- Underlay selection
- Seam placement and stretching
- Stair wrapping method
- Transitions to hard surfaces
08
Floor Removal & Demolition
Start with a clean foundation.
Every new floor is only as good as what's left behind after the old one comes up.
Ideal applications
- Full-home flooring replacement
- Single-room renovations
- Commercial refits
- Pre-installation subfloor preparation
Material considerations
- Existing adhesive and residue
- Subfloor condition and levelling
- Height differences between rooms
- Site protection and containment
