Subfloor Replacement

Ensure a solid foundation with our expert subfloor replacement services. We efficiently address issues like water damage, squeaking, or unevenness, providing a stable, reliable base for your new, beautiful flooring investment.

Signs You May Need a Subfloor Replacement

Sunken Flooring Sections

If you notice certain areas of your floor sinking or feeling softer underfoot, it could indicate a problem with your subfloor. This usually suggests deterioration or damage that requires subfloor replacement.

Visible Water Damage, Stains, and Cracks

Water damage can severely affect the integrity of your subfloor. If you see stains, cracks in your hardwood or tile flooring, or signs of water damage like warping or buckling, it's likely time for a subfloor replacement.

Squeaky Floorboards

Persistent squeaking or creaking sounds when you walk across the floor often point to issues with the subfloor. These noises can be a sign of loose or damaged subflooring that needs attention.

Unlevel Furniture

If your chairs or tables won't sit level on the floor, it could be due to an uneven subfloor. This unevenness can result from damage or wear over time, indicating the need for subfloor replacement.

Structural Integrity

Subfloor replacement strengthens your home's structure. It eliminates weakened areas due to water damage or wear, ensuring your floor's stability and longevity.

Our Process

Step 1: We start by inspecting your current flooring and subfloor to assess the extent of the damage. This helps us understand the scope of the project and plan the replacement process effectively.

02

Step 2: The old, damaged subfloor is carefully removed to avoid causing any further damage to the surrounding areas. We ensure all debris is cleared away, leaving a clean space for the new subfloor.

Step 3: A new subfloor is then installed, ensuring it's properly aligned and secured. We use high-quality materials to provide a strong, stable base for your new flooring.

04

Step 4: Once the new subfloor is installed, we conduct a final inspection to ensure everything is correctly in place and ready for the installation of your chosen flooring.

Our Subfloor Replacement Lays the Groundwork for Greatness

FAQs

  • What is a subfloor?

    A subfloor serves as the foundational layer of flooring within any building structure. It's the unsung hero that provides a stable, supportive surface upon which the visible floor - whether that's hardwood, tile, carpet, or another material - is expertly installed. 


    The role of the subfloor is indispensable in ensuring the durability, longevity, and overall performance of your finished floor. At Nu_Vue Flooring, we don't compromise on the quality of our subfloor replacements. We use only top-tier materials, guaranteeing a robust and reliable base for your new flooring, thus enhancing the lifespan and appearance of your investment.

  • How long does a subfloor replacement take?

    The timeline for a subfloor replacement is not a standard, one-size-fits-all scenario. It can vary significantly based on numerous factors, such as the size of the space in question and the extent of damage to the existing subfloor. Prior to initiating the project, we provide a comprehensive schedule, offering you a transparent overview of the process and setting clear expectations. 


    Our primary objective is to deliver a top-quality subfloor replacement efficiently and within the agreed timeframe. We strive to ensure your satisfaction and peace of mind from start to finish, making the process as seamless as possible.

  • Can I stay in my home during a subfloor replacement?

    The feasibility of staying in your home during a subfloor replacement largely depends on the scale of the work and the specific location of the project within your home. For minor projects or those situated in less frequently used areas, it may be possible to remain in your home. 


    However, for more extensive projects or those taking place in primary living areas, arranging alternative accommodation might be a more comfortable option. At Nu-Vue Flooring, we prioritize open communication and will discuss these details with you during the planning stage, aiming to minimize disruption to your daily routines and ensure a smooth transition.

  • Can I install new flooring without replacing a damaged subfloor?

    It's generally not advisable to install new flooring over a damaged subfloor. A compromised subfloor can lead to a host of problems with the new flooring, including uneven surfaces, annoying squeaks, or even more serious structural damage. At Nu-Vue Flooring, we prioritize the condition of the subfloor before proceeding with any new flooring installation. 


    This approach guarantees a successful installation process and a durable, high-quality finished floor. Our meticulous attention to detail ensures that your new flooring not only looks great but also stands the test of time, providing you with lasting value.
