Vinyl Plank Floors

Vinyl Plank Flooring Installation in Port Dover & Norfolk County

We supply and install luxury vinyl plank (LVP) for living rooms, bedrooms, basements, kitchens, laundry rooms and stairs, and finish it with new baseboards and trim. We have samples you can look at before you choose (see our vinyl plank styles), so one call covers the flooring and the install. Already bought your flooring somewhere else? We install that too. Styles of Tiles is based in Port Dover.

What a Vinyl Plank Job Includes

Here is the vinyl plank work we do, in plain terms. One job can include any mix of it.

Vinyl Plank, Supplied & InstalledWe supply the vinyl plank as part of the job and install it, so one call covers the whole floor. We have samples you can look at before you choose. See our vinyl plank styles: 6.5 mm waterproof click-lock plank.
Flooring You Already BoughtBought vinyl plank at a big-box store, a flooring store or anywhere else? We install it. You don't have to buy the flooring from us to hire us to put it down.
Click-Lock & Glue-DownWe install both kinds of vinyl plank. Most is a floating floor: the planks click together and sit on the subfloor without glue. Glue-down plank is bonded to the floor underneath.
Baseboards, Quarter Round & PaintingNew baseboards and quarter round to finish the floor off, and transition strips where the plank meets tile or carpet at a doorway. We do all of it, including painting the trim.
Rooms & StairsLiving rooms, bedrooms, basements, hallways, kitchens and laundry rooms. For a bathroom floor, mudroom or entry we'll tell you honestly when tile is the better choice. We put vinyl plank on stairs too, and when we supply the flooring we can supply vinyl stair nosing to match the floor you pick.
Getting the Floor ReadyVinyl plank needs a flat, solid floor under it. When the old floor has to come up, we take it up and haul it away, and when the subfloor needs levelling, we level it. Both are included in the job.

Where Our Part of a Floor Starts and Stops

This is where our part of a vinyl plank floor starts and stops, so you know what to expect and who to call for what.

What we do

We check the floor is flat and ready, plan the layout so the rows run straight and the end joints are staggered, then lay the planks, cutting in around doorways, cabinets and vents. We leave the expansion gap the flooring needs at the walls and cover it with baseboards and quarter round, with transition strips where the new floor meets another one. If furniture or appliances are in the way, we move them.

What someone else does

We don't do plumbing. If the floor under the plank needs structural repair, like sagging joists, that is a contractor's job, and it has to be done before we start.

Common Questions

Do you supply the flooring, or can I buy my own?

Either way. We supply vinyl plank as part of the job and have samples you can look at, with no obligation to buy from us. If you already bought yours, it doesn't matter where: Home Depot, RONA, Costco, a flooring store or online. We install it. Tell us the product name on the box and how many square feet you have, and send photos of the rooms.

How long does a vinyl plank floor take?

Most vinyl plank is a floating floor that clicks together, so it goes in much faster than tile. A typical job takes 1 to 4 days, depending on the size of the floor. Ask when you call for your quote and we'll tell you what to expect for your job.

Can vinyl plank go over my old floor or over concrete?

Yes, as long as what is under it is prepped properly. We install over concrete, like a basement slab, and over existing floors. The floor has to be flat and solid first, and getting it there is part of the job. Whether an underlayment goes under the plank depends on the floor and the product. Tell us what is on the floor now when you ask for a quote.

Do you do the baseboards and trim too?

Yes. New baseboards and quarter round are usually the last step of a vinyl plank floor, and they are what makes the job look finished. We install them and paint them. Tell us when you ask for a quote if you want them.

Is vinyl plank waterproof? Can it go in a bathroom?

The planks themselves are waterproof, but standing water can get down through the seams to the floor underneath. That is why we recommend tile for full bathroom floors, and vinyl plank or tile for kitchens, laundry rooms and basements. Our vinyl plank vs tile article goes through it room by room.

What should I send you for a quote?

Photos of the rooms and rough measurements are the best start. Tell us whether you want us to supply the flooring or you have your own, what is on the floor now, whether there are stairs, and whether you want new baseboards and trim. That is usually enough for us to tell you what the job involves.
