Luxury Vinyl Plank Floor Installation

HAFI Contracting Group is proud to showcase a recent floor installation and renovation in Kitchener, Ontario.

For this project, the goal was clear: remove the existing carpet on the second level and replace it with high-quality Luxury Vinyl Plank. While carpet has historically been the standard for bedrooms and hallways, LVP offers several distinct advantages:

Durability: It stands up to high foot traffic without showing wear patterns.
Hypoallergenic: Unlike carpet, LVP doesn’t trap dust, dander, or allergens.
Aesthetics: It provides a modern, unified look that flows from room to room.

However, replacing carpet on an upper level requires more than just laying down planks. It requires careful planning to ensure the transition is smooth and the structure is sound.

Location: Kitchener, Ontario
Services: Floor replacement and installation.

Stunning Second-Floor Makeover: Replacing Carpet with Luxury Vinyl Plank

The goal for this Kitchener residence was to update the look and feel of the home’s upper level. The existing carpeting was dated, and the homeowners desired the modern aesthetic and ease of maintenance that comes with hard surface flooring.

A key part of this project was the preparation phase. When replacing carpet with vinyl plank, the condition of the subfloor is paramount. Our installers were meticulous about preparing the subfloor—smoothing out imperfections and ensuring the surface was sturdy. This attention to detail eliminates squeaks and ensures the new planks lock together perfectly for a seamless finish.

To make the process as stress-free as possible for the homeowners, the HAFI team provided full-service logistics. We carefully moved all bedroom and hallway furniture, protecting the walls and belongings, and reinstated everything once the floors were complete.

Key Features of this Flooring Project:

Every element was executed to ensure longevity and a high-end finish. This project included:

Complete Carpet Removal: Efficient removal and disposal of old carpeting and underpad.
Meticulous Subfloor Prep: Leveling and smoothing the structure to ensure a “smooth, sturdy final floor.”
Furniture Management: Professional moving of heavy furniture to protect the home and belongings.
Premium LVP Installation: High-quality vinyl plank installed with precision cuts for a flawless look.
Site Cleanliness: A commitment to leaving the home cleaner than we found it.

The final result is a stunning, cohesive second floor that is durable, easy to clean, and beautiful.
