This means clearing out all dishes, food, small appliances, and anything on the countertops. You'll also need to disconnect and move larger appliances like your refrigerator, stove, and dishwasher. This typically takes a few hours to a day, depending on how much stuff you have, and makes the installer's job much quicker.",

Then, the subfloor needs to be clean, dry, level, and free of any damage. Any unevenness or defects in the subfloor can cause issues with your new flooring down the line, such as squeaks or cracks. This is a critical step that our team at Simply Construction handles, and it can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day, depending on the condition of your existing subfloor.",
