A floating floor offers the fastest removal time, but these options are glued around the perimeters to secure the flooring for click-and-lock installation. Next, we'll scrape away the glue and use a sander to smooth the surface. This part of removing laminate flooring can take longer, but it's still a quick process for flooring that's glued down.

Before laminate removal can happen, you'll need to empty the rooms, including wall hangings and other vital items. We will also discuss your preferences about where your old flooring goes, including options for recycling and reuse. Once you decide on these options, we'll give you all the details about what we'll be doing, how we'll be doing it, and how long the process will take from start to finish.
