The Hidden Cost of Bad Flooring Installation and How it Affects Your Warranty


Walking through your home should not feel like you're on a ship rolling up and down with the waves. If your home's flooring is uneven, bumpy or starting to show damage or breakage, there's a good chance that it was not installed properly.

In these instances, it's normal to consider a replacement covered by your warranty. However, if the installation team didn't properly level the floor during the initial installation, your warranty might not be valid.

How professional installation can save your Richmond flooring warranty


Typically, new flooring comes with a one-year labour warranty in addition to a manufacturer's product warranty. Unfortunately, most problems with flooring installation Richmond homeowners experience don't occur until 2-5 years later. By then, the labour warranty is long expired, and the manufacturer's warranty won't cover the problem since it's due to faulty installation.

When you pay for new vinyl flooring, it's important to have trained professional installers level and place the flooring. When levelling with vinyl planks, especially the thinner ones, it takes a skilled installer to ensure the flooring is placed according to warranty specifications.

This not only saves homeowners from the headache that comes from a sloppy install, but it ensures that the manufacturer's warranty will be valid if the flooring is defective for any reason.
