The problem
The homeowner wanted a cleaner, modern look in the primary bedroom and a second bedroom, with flooring chosen for its appearance and easy cleaning and maintenance. She selected Shaw Endura Plus luxury vinyl plank in White Sand for a coordinated finish across both rooms.
The update included the work underneath and around the new planks. The crew handled basic furniture moving, removed and disposed of the existing carpet, and completed localized leveling with PROMA Pro Patch before installing the floating floor.
Primed quarter round finished the room perimeters, and two reducers completed the adjoining-floor transitions. The two-bedroom installation was completed in one day in October 2026. The approved photographs show the installed floors and doorway details, with temporary blue painter's tape still visible in two doorway views.

The one-day scope included basic furniture moving, removal and disposal of 404 square feet of carpet, localized leveling with PROMA Pro Patch, 144 linear feet of primed quarter round, and two reducers. The recorded LVP installation quantity was 445 square feet across the primary bedroom and second bedroom. The light wood-look planks give both rooms a coordinated finish, with primed quarter round at the edges and reducers at adjoining floors.
