Flooring Installation in Richmond Hill
From Mill Pond and Richvale across Richmond Hill, flooring is one of the fastest ways to update a home. With established homes and large family homes here, we see everything from original hardwood worth keeping to tired carpet and laminate ready to go.
We install hardwood, engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl plank and tile throughout Richmond Hill, starting with the subfloor: levelling, securing and checking for moisture before the first board goes down, then finishing with transitions, stairs and trim.

Richmond Hill homes
What flooring installation involves in Richmond Hill's houses
1970s to 1990s family homes in Richmond Hill
Richmond Hill homes from the 1970s to the 1990s often have a mix of carpet, sheet vinyl and builder tile. Running one material through the main floor, and replacing carpeted stairs with hardwood or engineered treads, makes the house feel newer than almost any other single change.
Newer homes built since 2000 in Richmond Hill
Newer Richmond Hill homes often have carpet upstairs and on the stairs, and builder laminate or tile on the main floor. Common upgrades are engineered hardwood throughout and stair treads with matching nosings.
Rules in Richmond Hill
Permits and approvals for flooring installation in Richmond Hill
Building permits
Building permits in Richmond Hill are issued by the City of Richmond Hill. Electrical work anywhere in Ontario is done by a licensed electrical contractor under an Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) permit. We confirm what your project needs before you sign and book every inspection.
Testing before demolition
Homes built before the 1990s can contain asbestos in plaster, textured ceilings, floor tile, vermiculite insulation and pipe wrap, and homes from before the 1960s often have lead paint. In Richmond Hill's older houses we test suspect materials before demolition and handle them by the regulations if they are found.
The service
Floors That Stay Flat, Tight and Quiet
New flooring changes how a home looks and feels faster than almost any other upgrade. Whether you choose hardwood, engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl plank or tile, the result depends on what is underneath: a subfloor that is flat, solid and dry, and the right underlayment for the product and the room.
We install flooring through whole main floors, upstairs bedrooms, basements, kitchens and bathrooms. That includes removing old carpet, tile or laminate, levelling dips and humps, fixing squeaks, and finishing transitions, baseboards and stair nosings so the floor looks built-in rather than added on.

Questions
Flooring Installation in Richmond Hill: FAQs
How do I get a flooring installation quote in Richmond Hill?+
Call (647) 424-1511, use the form on this page or email info@ontariorenovationcompany.com. Tell us what you want to change and send a few photos, and we will book a visit and send a written quote for your Richmond Hill project.
What kinds of Richmond Hill homes do you work on?+
All of them. Housing in Richmond Hill includes 1970s to 1990s family homes and newer homes built since 2000, and each comes with its own considerations, from older wiring and foundations to builder warranties, septic systems and shoreline rules. We plan the work around the house you actually have.
What is the best flooring for a basement?+
Luxury vinyl plank is the most common choice because it is water-resistant and comfortable underfoot. Some engineered products work too. Solid hardwood is not recommended below grade. We check for moisture before recommending a product.
Can new flooring go over my old floor?+
Sometimes. Some products can go over sound, flat existing floors, but carpet always comes up, and uneven or damaged floors should be removed. We assess this during the quote.
Why does subfloor preparation matter?+
Most flooring problems, such as gaps, squeaks, cracked tile and planks that separate, come from an uneven or flexing subfloor. Levelling and securing it first is what makes the floor last.
Do you install flooring on stairs?+
Yes. Stairs can be finished in hardwood, engineered treads or vinyl plank with matching nosings, and it is often worth doing at the same time as the adjoining floors.
Do you offer flooring installation across Richmond Hill?+
Yes. We work throughout Richmond Hill, including Mill Pond, Richvale, Bayview Hill, Westbrook, Jefferson, Oak Ridges and Langstaff, and in nearby Vaughan, Markham, Aurora, Stouffville and Newmarket.
