Hardwood Flooring Installation Tips
Hardwood Flooring Installation In The Steamboat Springs Area
Before Hardwood Flooring Installation
Here is what you can expect before your hardwood installation with Carpets Plus Flooring Designs:
- We will walk you through the entire installation process before we begin. This is a good time to ask any questions that you might have.
- Please ensure that children and pets are not present during installation day.
- Complete any painting that might need to be done before we begin the installation.
- Ensure that someone 18 or older will be present on installation day.
- Remove any furniture or fragile items from the room in question.
- Be prepared not to have access to the rooms where the installation is set to take place.


What to Expect
During Hardwood Flooring Installation
Expect the following during our hardwood installation process:
- Your existing flooring may need to be removed, and your subflooring may need to be prepared.
- For a glue-down hardwood installation, adhesives will be spread on your subflooring, and hardwood planks will be laid individually. Your crew will cut the hardwood pieces to fit the layout of the room while ensuring that no gaps exist.
- For a nail-down hardwood installation, a similar process will be followed as the glue-down installation, but instead, the crew will use nails instead of adhesive.
- Our crew will clean up and complete our QA.
Once We Are Done
After Hardwood Flooring Installation
After your hardwood installation, the following should take place:
- We will walk you through the installation and allow you to ask any questions that you might have.
- Run a fan to remove any installation-related smells.
- Allow your floors and the materials to settle before walking across your hardwood floors. At least 24-48 hours should pass before you use the flooring.
- Stay in touch with our team with any questions about your new hardwood.

Jason Strauss
Wonderful experience with this local business. I was in a pinch to replace a torn piece in my home to get it ready for rent, and the team found a great matching design for my very old carpet. The installer was professional and did the work very quickly. These are extremely nice folks who genuinely want to help you!

We recently contracted CarpetPlus Flooring Designs to replace the carpet and slate tile in our Steamboat home. They were professional, informative, and had a wide selection of flooring choices. Adam and Mary guided us through the process with integrity and professionalism. The demo and installation went flawlessly and their team of professionals provided us with a quality installation. We could not be more pleased with the design, installation and quality of service that we received. CarpetPlus Flooring Design takes pride in all aspects of the flooring process they will be handling all of my flooring needs in the future.

CarpetPLUS redid the carpet in all of my house. They were very helpful and honest when choosing carpets and very accommodating on when I got the carpet done. There were a few things the installers missed solely because I was the one who removed the carpet and they weren’t normally carpeted spots and they happily came back and fixed them up. I highly recommend using them for all flooring needs as I will in the future!
