Family-owned

Local Flooring Company Since 2013

Wills Flooring was started by Oleg in Lynnwood in 2013 and is still family-owned. From our Everett showroom, our team helps homeowners across King and Snohomish counties choose flooring, prepare their homes and finish the installation with care.

We discuss who will handle the work, the product and preparation required, and the details of your written scope before installation begins. You can verify a Washington contractor’s current registration, bond and insurance through the state Labor & Industries contractor lookup.

Craftsmanship from the ground up

Professional Luxury Vinyl Plank Installation

Vinyl plank installation fits luxury vinyl planks over a prepared subfloor using the method specified for the selected product. Wills Flooring measures the rooms, checks moisture and flatness, and includes the agreed preparation, transitions and trim in a written scope.

Explore vinyl plank installation in Everett for local project planning. For adjoining bedrooms, compare carpet installation; if the existing floor is real wood, review hardwood refinishing before deciding to replace it.

Subfloor inspection & preparation

We check moisture and flatness against the selected product’s limits, identify loose or damaged areas, and plan compatible patching or leveling. Preparation includes the required drying time, door-jamb clearance, and a final sweep and vacuum before planks are laid.

Existing floor removal

We can remove carpet, laminate or other flooring as part of your project.

Precise LVP installation

We plan the first and last rows to avoid narrow strips, stagger end joints to the product’s requirements, and fit cuts around doorways and fixed objects. The plank construction determines the cutting and locking method. Door jambs are undercut where appropriate, with the required expansion clearance maintained.

Trim & final cleanup

We cover the required perimeter clearance with agreed baseboards or shoe molding, and fit product-compatible transitions such as T-moldings, reducers or stair nosing where the layout calls for them. We finish the visible edges and remove installation debris; your written estimate identifies the trim and cleanup included.

A better foundation

A Beautiful LVP Floor Starts With a Flat Subfloor

Plywood and concrete can hide high spots, low spots and moisture concerns. We check flatness and the moisture conditions required by the selected LVP, then explain suitable corrections. Preparation may include reducing high spots, filling low areas with a compatible patch or leveling product, and addressing loose or damaged subfloor areas. Preparation products need their required drying time before installation. The surface must be clean, dry and structurally sound; dust and debris are removed before planks go down. Necessary preparation and moisture measures are listed in the agreed written scope.

Product information

Indoor Air Quality, VOCs and Installation Odor

When comparing LVP, ask for the exact product’s emissions certification and documentation for its pad and any adhesive. FloorScore certification evaluates specified VOC emissions; it does not mean zero emissions and does not certify that a product is phthalate-free. Check any phthalate claim separately with the manufacturer.

New flooring and installation products may have an odor. Review ventilation and return-to-use directions for the selected products, and tell us about odor concerns before materials are chosen. Floating floors avoid a full-spread flooring adhesive, while glue-down installations require an approved adhesive and its ventilation and curing instructions.

Installation details

What Pros Check Before Laying LVP

A good installation starts with the specific product instructions and a layout that suits your rooms.

Product readiness

We check the selected plank’s instructions for temperature, acclimation and underlayment requirements before work begins.

Balanced appearance

Where the product has varied wood-look patterns, we draw from multiple cartons and plan the layout so repeated patterns and narrow end cuts are less noticeable.

Protected joints

We use the fitting method and tools approved for the locking profile, including an appropriate tapping block where called for, so the joint and wear surface are protected.

From first visit to final detail

How Your LVP Project Works

Budget with clarity

How Much Does LVP Installation Cost?

Every home and product is different. Your price depends on the project size, existing floor removal, subfloor repairs, chosen LVP, stairs, transitions, trim and any furniture or appliance moving.

We measure your space and inspect the existing floor, then give you a written estimate that separates the work for your project.

LVP brand and product comparison

Compare exact collections rather than a brand name alone. These manufacturer examples show how specifications vary; ask us to confirm current availability, samples and installed pricing for your project.

Manufacturer examples — availability and pricing confirmed at your estimate
Brand / exampleWear layerWhat to compare
COREtec Originals Premium — Flaxen Ash20 milCore construction, overall thickness, attached pad and approved installation method.
Mohawk SolidTech Plus — Amber Escape20 milRoom suitability, surface protection, plank dimensions and warranty conditions.
Shaw — Fleetwood20 milCompare with other Shaw collections; the brand also lists 6- and 12-mil products.

Price depends on the specific collection and the full project scope. Compare material, removal, preparation, installation and trim together when reviewing quotes.

Wear layer

Compare the wear layer in mils: 1 mil is one-thousandth of an inch, not 1 millimeter. Products are available with 6-, 12- and 20-mil layers, among other specifications. For active rooms or pets, compare a 20-mil option with the other suitable products in your budget. The surface finish, construction, approved use and warranty also matter; a thicker wear layer does not make a floor scratch-proof or dent-proof.

Water resistance

Consider exposure to spills and moisture, including the subfloor below.

Plank construction

Thickness and core design affect feel and product requirements.

Pad & underlayment

The right combination depends on the product and the existing floor.

Common questions

LVP Installation FAQs

How long does LVP installation take?

For planning, a straightforward 1,000-square-foot project might follow a 2–4-workday installation schedule: removal and subfloor preparation first, plank installation next, then transitions, trim, cleanup and the walkthrough. This is an example, not a promised completion time. Repairs, stairs, occupied rooms and drying time can extend the work. Delivery and any required acclimation happen before installation; adhesive cure time can also delay furniture return. We confirm the schedule, room access and furniture plan after inspecting your home.

Can LVP be installed over existing flooring?

Sometimes, if the existing surface is suitable and the selected product permits it. We inspect the floor and follow the manufacturer’s instructions before recommending an approach.

How flat does my subfloor need to be?

Use the tolerance in the selected product’s installation guide. For example, Shaw’s Luxury Vinyl Angle/Angle SPC instructions specify 3/16 inch in 10 feet or 1/8 inch in 6 feet. This is a product-specific example, not a rule for every LVP. We check for high and low spots and explain the corrections needed; flatness and moisture are separate checks.

Is luxury vinyl plank waterproof?

Many LVP products have waterproof planks, but water can still reach seams, edges or the subfloor. We’ll help you select a product suited to the room.

Can LVP be installed over concrete?

Yes, when the slab is suitable and the product’s moisture and underlayment requirements are met. We assess the concrete during the estimate.

Do I need to move my furniture?

We’ll review furniture and appliance access with you before work starts and list any moving services in your written estimate.

Can you remove my existing carpet or flooring?

Yes. We can include removal and disposal in the scope after seeing the existing floor.

Do you bring flooring samples to my home?

Yes. We bring LVP samples so you can compare color and texture in your own light.

What areas do you serve?

We install LVP throughout King and Snohomish counties, including Seattle, Bellevue, Everett, Lynnwood, Edmonds and nearby cities.

Does LVP need to acclimate before installation?

Requirements vary. Some products require acclimation, while others do not when their stated conditions are met. Follow the exact product’s storage, temperature and humidity instructions, and keep the installation area within its required conditions. We confirm these requirements when planning delivery and installation.

What is the difference between floating and glue-down LVP?

Floating click-lock planks connect to one another without being bonded to the subfloor. Glue-down LVP uses a manufacturer-approved adhesive and installation procedure. The product, substrate and intended use determine which approach is permitted. Both need proper preparation; glue-down work also requires attention to adhesive compatibility and drying or curing instructions.

How are vinyl planks cut around doorways and walls?

The cutting method depends on the plank and shape of the cut. Some products allow score-and-snap straight cuts; other products or shaped cuts need a suitable cutter or saw. Cuts must leave the required clearance around fixed objects. Door jambs may be undercut so the finished edge fits beneath the casing without trapping a floating floor.

How much extra LVP should I order?

Start with the measured floor area, then add an allowance for cuts, layout and spare planks before rounding up to full cartons. For example, 500 square feet plus a 10% allowance equals 550 square feet. This is a calculation example; the right allowance depends on your rooms, plank size and installation pattern.

How are expansion gaps and transitions finished?

Baseboards or shoe molding can conceal perimeter gaps while allowing a floating floor to move. Transitions address doorways, changes in floor height or product-required breaks. Trim must not pin floating planks to the subfloor. We discuss compatible profiles, colors and any trim painting or finishing in the written scope.

Installation references: Shaw Angle/Angle SPC requirements, Shaw’s installation overview and Mohawk Home vinyl resources. Instructions for your exact product govern the work.

Before you install

Common LVP Installation Mistakes to Avoid

Ignoring expansion space

Floating floors need the perimeter clearance specified by their manufacturer. Skipping it can cause pressure and movement as conditions change.

Covering an uneven subfloor

Low or high spots outside the selected product’s tolerance can stress locking joints. Check and correct the surface before installation.

Choosing the wrong underlayment

Extra padding or the wrong moisture barrier may conflict with a plank’s instructions, especially when it already has an attached pad. Confirm compatibility before ordering.

We review these requirements during the estimate and explain the preparation in your written scope.
