Preparation is paramount in any trade, and the flooring trade is no different. The finished floor will only be as good as the subfloor construction and condition. Defects in the subfloor may be covered up during the installation of the final finish, but unless you’re very lucky, any disguised problems will raise their ugly heads at some point.
At the point that they become visible, it’s too late and the cost of fixing the issue and replacing the floor finishes will become very expensive. The problem will then be passed down the supply chain, and inevitably, someone will be left looking at a very hefty cost of replacement.
Then, the recriminations, the passing of blame, the examination of installation protocol, and the adherence to the manufacturer’s instructions will begin. Suddenly, data sheets will become very interesting, and the selection of products even more so.
So it’s in everyone’s interest to do the job right in the first place, no matter what this does to your quote. Pick your products carefully, ensure that they meet the correct specification for the use and location, and purchase them from a reliable trade supplier that will stand behind the product and service.
