Engagement: Residential Project · Residential Home
Installed area: Approximately 300 square feet
Elapsed work time: Two full onsite workdays, separated by an approximately one-week pause for a separate abatement scope

Project overview

The goal, materials, and finished scope.

In June 2026, Floors Now began this approximately 300-square-foot Farmington kitchen project by removing the old tile. When removal exposed an underlying layer requiring professional asbestos abatement, the flooring crew paused and a separate asbestos-abatement contractor completed that specialized scope. About one week later, Floors Now returned, installed and prepared plywood underlayment, used PROMA Pro Patch for localized surface correction, and completed the warm wood-look rigid-core LVP installation. Floors Now's flooring work required two full onsite days across the two visits.
