Frequently Asked Questions
How much does flooring installation cost in Metro Vancouver?
Costs depend on the material. Laminate runs $4-$10 per square foot installed. Vinyl and LVP costs $5-$12 per square foot. Hardwood ranges from $8-$18 per square foot. Engineered wood is $7-$16 per square foot. Tile runs $10-$25 per square foot. Carpet costs $4-$12 per square foot. Cork and bamboo run $6-$14 per square foot. Floor refinishing costs $3-$8 per square foot. Subfloor prep and acoustic underlayment add $1-$5 per square foot.
What is the best flooring for Vancouver's wet climate?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the most popular choice -- it is 100% waterproof and handles moisture, spills, and humidity without damage. Porcelain and ceramic tile are also fully waterproof. Engineered hardwood handles humidity swings better than solid hardwood. For solid wood, white oak is preferred for its tight grain and natural moisture resistance. Proper vapour barriers and subfloor moisture testing are essential regardless of material.
Do I need strata approval for flooring in a Vancouver condo?
Most Metro Vancouver strata buildings require approval before installing hard-surface flooring in upper-floor units. Strata bylaws typically require acoustic underlayment meeting STC/IIC ratings of 50 or higher. LVP with factory-attached acoustic backing and engineered hardwood over approved underlayment are the most common strata-compliant options. Review your strata bylaws and submit an alteration request before starting work.
How long does flooring installation take?
LVP and laminate are the fastest -- a single room in one day, a full house in 2-3 days. Engineered hardwood takes 2-4 days. Solid hardwood requires 7+ days of acclimatization before 2-4 days of installation. Tile takes 3-5 days including setting and grouting. Carpet is typically 1-2 days. Refinishing requires 3-5 days for sanding, staining, and multiple finish coats. Subfloor prep or old flooring removal adds 1-2 days.
