Thinking About New Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) or Laminate Flooring? Don’t Overlook the Most Important Step—Subfloor Preparation

Many homeowners focus on the flooring they see, but the quality of a laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floor depends on what is underneath it.

At A Plus Hardwood Floors Inc., we believe that proper subfloor preparation is the foundation of every successful flooring installation. Skipping this step may save money today, but it often leads to expensive repairs later.

Why Is Subfloor Preparation So Important?

Before installing laminate or vinyl plank flooring, the subfloor should be carefully inspected for:

✔ Loose or squeaky subfloor panels
✔ Water damage or deteriorated wood
✔ Uneven or low spots
✔ High spots that require grinding or sanding
✔ Loose fasteners or nails
✔ Structural movement between floor joists

If these issues are ignored, homeowners may experience:

❌ Squeaking floors
❌ Hollow or bouncy areas
❌ Floor movement when walking
❌ Gaps between planks
❌ Locking system failure
❌ Premature wear and shortened floor life

Our Installation Process

Every home is different, but our installation process typically includes:

• Complete inspection of the existing subfloor
• Reinforcing loose subfloor panels with screws to reduce movement
• Repairing damaged areas when necessary
• Leveling uneven surfaces to meet flooring manufacturer requirements
• Installing the proper underlayment (when applicable)
• Allowing proper expansion gaps around the perimeter of the room
• Professionally installing your laminate or luxury vinyl plank flooring according to manufacturer specifications

A properly prepared subfloor creates a quieter, stronger, and longer-lasting floor that looks great for years.

Quality Installation Protects Your Investment

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) and laminate flooring are excellent products when installed correctly. Even the highest-quality flooring can fail if the subfloor is uneven, unstable, or improperly prepared.

That’s why we never rush through the preparation process. Taking the time to do it right helps reduce callbacks, prevents future issues, and gives our customers confidence that their investment is built to last.

If you’re looking for a trusted laminate flooring installer or luxury vinyl plank flooring contractor in Palatine, Deer Park, Lake Zurich, Barrington, Long Grove, Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Inverness, Kildeer, Wauconda, or the surrounding Northwest Chicago suburbs, contact A Plus Hardwood Floors Inc. for a free in-home estimate.

A quality floor doesn’t start with the flooring—it starts with the foundation beneath it.
