Flooring Types We Install

Every flooring type has its own techniques, tools, and installation considerations. Here's what our team handles day in and day out.

Hardwood flooring installation. Solid and engineered hardwood install using nail-down, glue-down, or floating methods. Critical for hardwood is proper acclimation and subfloor prep, especially on concrete slab homes common in Mountain View Eichlers.

Carpet installation. Wall-to-wall carpet, stair runners, custom rugs, and commercial broadloom. Our team handles pad selection, tack strip placement, and precise seaming.

Luxury vinyl plank and tile installation. Click-lock, glue-down, and floating installs. Critical for LVP is a flat subfloor and proper expansion gap, especially for SPC core products.

Tile installation. Ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, and large-format tile. Includes cement board and waterproofing membrane for bathroom and shower installs.

Laminate flooring installation. Click-lock floating floors over approved subfloors. Fast turnaround and minimal disruption for rental properties and quick refreshes.

Vinyl and sheet vinyl installation. Seamless sheet vinyl for bathrooms and laundry rooms, plus VCT for commercial spaces.

Not sure which floor type is right for your space? We can help you compare options at your free in-home measurement.

Why Subfloor Preparation Matters

Most failed flooring installs come down to one thing: poor subfloor prep. We've been called in to fix plenty of projects that started with the best tile or highest-end hardwood but failed because the subfloor wasn't leveled, sealed, or cleaned properly.

Our team handles:

  • Subfloor cleaning and debris removal before any product goes down
  • Moisture testing for wood and LVP installs, especially on concrete slabs
  • Leveling using self-leveling compound or plywood shimming when needed
  • Waterproofing membranes for tile installations in bathrooms and kitchens
  • Cement board installation for tile over wood subfloors
  • Underlayment selection matched to the specific flooring product and room use
  • Removal of old flooring and proper disposal

Skipping any of these steps can cause buckling, cracking, gapping, or mold problems down the road. With PKS, they're built into every install.

These ranges cover materials and labor. Subfloor prep, stairs, and custom patterns can push higher. We'll give you a clear, upfront quote after a free in-home measurement.

We'll discuss your style preferences, budget, and how you use each space. Then we'll recommend the best flooring options and walk you through the installation process step by step. Our goal is to make your flooring project stress-free from start to finish.

We primarily install flooring purchased through our showroom so we can stand behind both the product and the workmanship. In certain cases, we can install customer-supplied materials, but pricing and warranty terms differ. Give us a call to discuss your project.

Our installation warranty covers workmanship on the install itself, which is separate from the manufacturer's product warranty on the flooring. Details depend on the flooring type and project. We'll walk through warranty specifics with you at your estimate.
