How we install laminate flooring

  1. Free in-home estimate. We measure each room, check the existing floor and subfloor, and lay laminate samples next to your cabinets and furniture. You get a firm written price on the spot.
  2. Removal and haul-away. We take out the old carpet, pad, vinyl or laminate, pull staples and tack strip, and haul everything away. Existing hardwood or tile can sometimes stay underneath; we tell you at the estimate.
  3. Subfloor preparation. Laminate is a floating floor, so the subfloor must be flat, dry and clean. We grind high spots, fill low spots with leveling compound and test concrete for moisture before laying a vapor barrier.
  4. Underlayment. We install the underlayment your laminate calls for, plus a vapor barrier over concrete, for a quieter floor and a valid manufacturer warranty.
  5. Click-lock installation. Planks go in with the correct expansion gap at every wall, staggered end joints and undercut door jambs, so the floor can move with the seasons without buckling.
  6. Trim and walk-through. We fit baseboards or quarter round and transitions, clean up, and walk the finished floor with you before we leave.

Laminate flooring installation cost

Laminate flooring installation starts at $2.50 per square foot for labor. The final price depends on the laminate you choose, the square footage, stairs, the condition of the subfloor and how much old flooring has to be removed. There is a 500 square foot minimum, and you get a firm written price at your free in-home estimate.

  • Laminate you choose: standard, wide plank or waterproof lines
  • Square footage and the number of rooms
  • Stairs, closets and tight cuts
  • Subfloor condition and any leveling beyond minor low spots
  • Removal and haul-away of the existing floor

See our flooring installation cost guide for price ranges on every floor type we install.

Laminate or luxury vinyl plank?

Laminate has a harder, more scratch-resistant wood-look surface and usually costs less per square foot. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is fully waterproof and quieter underfoot. We bring samples of both so you can compare them in your own light, and we install both.

  • Choose laminate for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and home offices where scratch resistance and a realistic wood texture matter most.
  • Choose waterproof laminate or LVP for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and basements.

Where we install laminate flooring

We install laminate in Lynnwood, Everett, Bellevue, Seattle and more than 30 cities across Snohomish and King County, including Mill Creek, Edmonds, Shoreline, Bothell, Kirkland, Redmond, Sammamish and Marysville. Our showroom is at 500 SE Everett Mall Way, Ste 203, Everett, WA 98208.

Our laminate installation warranty

Every laminate installation is backed by a 1-year workmanship warranty. If a plank lifts, a joint opens or a transition fails because of the installation, we come back and fix it at no charge. The laminate itself is covered by the manufacturer's warranty, which stays valid because we follow the required underlayment, expansion gap and subfloor specifications.

Laminate flooring installation FAQ

How much does laminate flooring installation cost?

Installation starts at $2.50 per square foot for labor, with a 500 square foot minimum. The total depends on the laminate, square footage, stairs and subfloor prep. We give an exact written price at your free in-home estimate.

Is laminate flooring waterproof, and can it be installed in kitchens and bathrooms?

Some laminate products are water-resistant, while others are rated waterproof. Suitability depends on the specific laminate product and its installation requirements. Check whether the manufacturer approves the flooring for the intended room and what perimeter sealing is required. A waterproof label should not replace a review of the product’s installation instructions and warranty.

How long does laminate installation take?

Most homes take one to two days, including removal of the old floor and subfloor preparation. Larger homes or extensive leveling can add a day.

Do you remove the old flooring?

Yes. Removal and haul-away of carpet, pad, vinyl or old laminate is part of the job and is listed as its own line on your written estimate.

Can laminate go over my existing floor?

Laminate can often float over flat, well-attached hardwood, tile or sheet vinyl. Carpet always comes out. We check flatness and moisture at the estimate and tell you what needs to happen first.

What is the difference between laminate and luxury vinyl plank?

Laminate has a harder, more scratch-resistant surface and usually costs less. LVP is fully waterproof and softer and quieter underfoot. We install both and bring samples of each.

Do I need to move furniture before installation?

Rooms should be cleared of small items and breakables. Ask about furniture moving when you book; we can plan it into the estimate.

What should installers check before installing laminate flooring?

Before installing laminate, check the subfloor’s flatness, moisture conditions, existing flooring, and required underlayment. Door clearances, transitions, and expansion space also need planning. Wills Flooring evaluates the existing floor and subfloor during your in-home estimate so preparation can be included in the written scope of work.

Can laminate flooring be installed over uneven floors?

Uneven floors need evaluation and preparation before laminate installation. Wills Flooring checks for high and low spots and determines the preparation needed to meet the selected flooring manufacturer’s requirements. Our installation process can include grinding high spots and filling low areas. The amount of preparation affects the project’s cost and schedule.

Does laminate flooring need to acclimate before installation?

Follow the instructions for the exact product being installed. Some flooring requires acclimation, while other products have different requirements. Delivery and installation should be scheduled around the manufacturer’s temperature, humidity, and storage instructions.

How much extra laminate flooring should I order?

Order enough material for the measured floor area plus an allowance for cuts, layout, and spare boards. For example, a 500-square-foot area with a 10% allowance requires 550 square feet before rounding up to full boxes. This is a calculation example; the appropriate allowance depends on the project.

When should I hire a professional laminate installer?

Professional installation is especially useful when a project involves uneven subfloors, moisture concerns, multiple connected rooms, stairs, or complicated doorways and transitions. Compare estimates by the preparation and finishing work included, as well as the installation price.

Does Wills Flooring bring laminate samples to my home?

Yes. Wills Flooring brings laminate samples to your home so you can compare styles beside your furniture, cabinets, and lighting. We provide laminate installation in Lynnwood, Everett, Seattle, Bellevue, and surrounding King and Snohomish County communities. Your free in-home estimate includes measuring and a written quote.

I would highly recommend Wills Flooring! They were very easy to work with and accommodating when we had to move our installation date. We are very happy with their professionalism and the quality of the product. They replaced our entire first floor and stairs with LVP, removed carpet, leveled portions of the floor and built proper steps to code.
