Luxury Vinyl Install

Learn what to expect before, during and after your professional luxury vinyl flooring installation from the experts at Thornton Flooring.

Thank you for giving Thornton Flooring an opportunity to bid flooring for your home. In order to ensure a quality experience, please remember the following:

  • Loose items on walls should be removed prior to install
  • Touchup painting may be needed after install, especially on base boards
  • The temperature in your home needs to be 65-75ºF for 36 hours before, during, and maintained after installation
  • If you’re not going to be home at the time of install, a way in must be addressed beforehand
  • Furniture must be out of the room before installers arrive
  • Changing flooring can affect floor heights at thresholds, trim heights, and door clearances–we do not cut doors off
  • If you have in-floor heat, be sure to let us know beforehand
  • Make sure to talk with your salesperson on which direction your floor will run if you have a preference
  • Replacing flooring creates dust, so please cover any items left in or near the work area and expect dusting to be necessary after install
  • Special order items can not be returned
    If installing hard surface flooring, we need a warm, dry area to cut the product–please inform your sales person of where you prefer we cut product
  • Thornton Flooring requires 50% down at the time of order and balance is due prior to install date
  • We do offer financing, please ask your sales rep for information or see our financing page here (include link to financing page)

Depending on the type of vinyl you have selected for installation, the process will vary in duration. The two types of installation methods for vinyl are self-stick or a glue down type of vinyl. The self-stick vinyl is easier to install since the adhesive backing is already on the tiles or planks.

After installation, you’ll need to make sure your room has good ventilation. You can help ensure good air flow by opening up windows, turning on fans and taking other steps to air the room out for about 48 to 72 hours. Then, it’s up to you to care for and maintain your new vinyl floor.

If you have questions about floor maintenance, we would be happy to answer them for you.
