Common DIY questions
Start here
Do I need to remove my old floors to install laminate?
Often, no. Laminate and luxury vinyl can 'float' over many existing hard surfaces as long as the base is flat, dry and sound. The honest answer depends on what's under there — call us and we'll talk it through.
Is plywood subflooring really necessary?
What matters most is a flat, stable, dry substrate — not one specific material. Sometimes you build it up, sometimes you don't. We'll help you figure out the right base for your room and budget.
How can I install laminate on a budget?
A floating floor, the right underlayment, and doing the labor yourself with our step-by-step phone guidance keep costs down — that's exactly what our 24/7 DIY line is for.
More how-to guides are on the way. In the meantime, the fastest help is a phone call — or stop by the Wasilla showroom.
