Flooring Installation in Berlin, Connecticut

The gym received Advanced Edge rubber flooring in Summertime Blues in October 2026, with a 200-square-foot installation quantity. The work included removal and disposal of 178 square feet of glue-down carpet, skim coating with Planiprep SC, and transition finishing. This feature covers the completed gym installation; the other basement areas, stairs, and workshop are outside this completed scope.

The kitchen, living room, and hall received Karndean Art Select Hickory Nutmeg luxury vinyl plank with a floating installation. The installation quantity was 479 square feet, separate from the 249 square feet of laminate removal and disposal listed for the crew. Localized preparation with Proma Pro Patch, two appliance moves, baseboard, quarter round, cove base, and transitions were included.

Completed in September 2026, the project included removing and disposing of 352 square feet of carpet, sanding and refinishing 282 square feet of existing hardwood in the living room and entry, and refinishing 12 stair treads. The wood was left natural with a water-based finish and no stain.

The project gallery begins with the living-room floor after sanding and before finishing. The next two photographs show the refinished floor, including a view from the entry beside the stairs and a second view across the living room.

No. The old carpet had already been removed before Floors Now arrived. The crew scraped the remaining carpet adhesive from 870 square feet of exposed concrete and prepared the surface for the gluedown installation.

This project included scraping leftover adhesive, applying patch primer, and skim coating 870 square feet with Planiprep SC. Preparation requirements vary with the concrete condition and selected flooring system.

Yes. This Berlin project included removing and disposing of 49 square feet of VCT before the new flooring was installed.

Yes, when included in the agreed scope. This project included removing and resetting one toilet and installing 56 pieces of cove base.

Not automatically. The substrate, moisture conditions, flooring construction, underlayment, and manufacturer instructions determine whether a separate moisture barrier or another moisture-control system is required.

Not necessarily, but it must meet the selected flooring manufacturer's flatness and stability requirements. Localized high spots, low spots, cracks, or damaged areas may need preparation even when the slab has a consistent overall slope.

The family room received Mohawk Balance II carpet in Wind over new pad. The crew moved furniture, removed and disposed of the old carpet, installed the replacement carpet and pad, and completed seven linear feet of vinyl transition. The family-room work took half a day. This replacement is separate from the Kensington basement carpet restretch.

The project was completed in Kensington, a village within the Town of Berlin. It appears on the Berlin town page while its project title and case study identify Kensington clearly.

No new carpet material was supplied. The existing finished-basement carpet was retained, set over 300 square feet of new Tahoe 8-pound, 7/16-inch cushion with SpillGuard, and restretched across approximately 272 square feet.

The verified project information confirms that new cushion was requested and installed but does not state why the customer wanted the pad replaced. No unsupported cause is assigned to the replacement.

The new cushion, corrected tack strip, carpet restretch, and vinyl transition were completed in a few hours. The retained carpet already had pulls along some edges, and the customer understood that those existing conditions could limit the final appearance.
