Flooring Installation in Allentown

Example project scope

Multi-room flooring replacement, Allentown, PA

Allentown, PA (Lehigh Valley)

Full flooring replacement across living room, hallway, and two bedrooms in a 1960s home with subfloor issues that had to be corrected before any finish material went down.

• Existing carpet and pad pulled; vinyl adhesive residue scraped and cleaned from plywood subfloor across all rooms
• Subfloor mapped for flatness with a 6-ft straightedge — two crowns shimmed and three dip zones filled with self-leveling compound to bring the surface within spec
• Loose and squeaking subfloor panels re-fastened with ring-shank screws into joists every 6 inches through the hallway and living room
• Moisture testing with pin meter at 12 locations before underlayment selection; readings confirmed standard foam underlayment was appropriate (no vapor barrier needed)

Installed per manufacturer specs for expansion, underlayment, and acclimation requirements.

Shown to illustrate prep depth. Your scope will vary based on subfloor condition, room count, and material choice.
