Should flooring go in before or after the cabinets?

It depends on the floor. Tile and some hardwood can run under cabinets. Floating floors usually stop at the cabinet base. We pick the order that suits your floor and appliance heights.

Can new floors go over the old ones?

Sometimes, if the old floor is flat and well bonded and the extra height works at doors and appliances. Often it is better to remove it, and we check before quoting.

Do you match existing wall texture?

Yes. We sample the texture on the existing walls and match it on patches so the repair does not stand out.

Flooring, Drywall and Finishes, In the Right Order

Floors and walls are the last layers of a remodel and the first things you notice. We plan them with the kitchen so heights, transitions and clearances all work.

Floors under or around the cabinets

Some floors run under the cabinets and some stop at the toe kick. The choice affects the finished height for the dishwasher and range, and it changes the cost. We decide it with the kitchen layout so appliances slide in and out.

Subfloor and transitions

A flat subfloor is what makes a floor last. We check it, grind or fill to level and plan transitions where wood meets tile or carpet. When floors run through several rooms, the levels are set across the whole run.

Drywall and paint

New walls, patched openings, ceilings opened for wiring and the edges around new windows all get taped, textured to match and painted. Drywall closes only after rough inspections pass.
