INSTALLATION QUESTIONS
WHAT DO WE MOVE?
Gainesville Flooring will remove the furniture and set it back after the floors are installed.
Before we arrive, what should you move?
- Prior to installation, we ask that you disconnect and move computers and electronic equipment, remove nick-nacks from the areas we work in or pass through, as well as, items off the floors (that includes that pile in your closet).
- Rolls of carpet are heavy and awkward and we recommend removing any furniture/artwork and knick knicks along the path between the exterior door and the room the carpet is being installed so nothing is inadvertently knocked over or in the way.
CARPET INSTALLATION
- Carpet rolls are heavy and awkward and so the installers will most likely need a spot outside to cut the carpet prior to bringing it inside…driveway, cul-de-sac or garage.
- If there are knick-knacks or things along the path to the room where you are having carpet installed, you should remove those to prevent an accident.
- In order to properly stretch your carpet, the carpet backing may scratch the paint on the baseboards. Touching up your baseboards may be necessary as it is an expected result of carpet installation.
- If the carpet thickness affects the ability for a door to close after installation, Gainesville Flooring does not trim down doors, so you may have to hire a carpenter.
TILE INSTALLATION
- Gainesville Flooring uses the Schluter shower systems for all shower installations which provides a patented, waterproof underlayment before the first tile is installed. We are so happy with the performance of this product. This is the only product we trust for waterproofing showers.
- After tile installation, the tile may need to be cleaned a couple days after installation due to a haze left as a result of the grouting process.
Installation In-Process
With the end goal in sight, the installation process is sometimes messy, loud and disruptive to your regular schedule… but remember, these are craftspeople and this type of work takes time and skill. Once we have removed your previous floor, shower, bathtub, backsplash, etc., then the fun begins! It is amazing to see how your space transforms each day. These images show you a little of what the installation looks like mid-project.
