Before & after
Before the works...
In this Willesden house we installed approx. 24 sqm of laminate flooring. During our initial survey, we did a thorough inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.
Our client has decided to go for floor fitting, beading installation, and install QuickStep Impressive Natural Varnished Oak Laminate Flooring with primed scotia beading around perimeter.
How we completed the floor works...
One of the challenges we faced during this project was to complete the floor works in stages, due to furniture, which could not be moved out.
After our floor installers have checked all service, property & products details on site, including amount of products supply, they started with lifting existing laminate flooring and its preparation for disposal to our waste facility.
During this flooring project we installed 24 sqm sqm of laminate flooring - QuickStep Impressive Natural Varnished Oak Laminate Flooring with floating installation over plied timber subfloor onto Duralay Excel Silver 3.7 mm underlay with DPM barrier .
Laminate flooring products are relatively thin and require a good subfloor level. Our laminate floor installation service will consider this from initial survey and during the installation itself.
When installing new floors an expansion gap of approx. 10 mm is left around the perimeter. This gap is either covered by new skirting boards, or in case the old ones remain - scotia or quadrant beading will be installed around the perimeter.
In this project the client decided to go with primed scotia beading around the perimeter.
As per our initial assessment, the subfloor was prepared with 9 mm GP plywood before the floor installation.
Due to the change of level, after the new flooring was installed - our experienced, local Willesden floor fitters made sure all affected doors & door frames are trimmed to height and adjusted to new flooring.
Overall the project was completed as scheduled and to the delight of the client.
