Quick answer
cK Builders installs luxury vinyl plank (LVP), hardwood, laminate, tile and carpet, and refinishes hardwood floors, in homes across St. Paul, Mendota Heights, Dakota County and the south metro. Every flooring job includes removal and disposal of the old floor, subfloor inspection and prep, installation, transitions, and baseboard or trim work. We’re a licensed Minnesota residential building contractor (#BC809999), so flooring can also be part of a larger kitchen, bathroom or basement remodel.
Flooring we install
One room or the whole house, we install luxury vinyl plank (LVP), hardwood, laminate, ceramic and porcelain tile, and carpet, in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, living rooms, bedrooms, entries, mudrooms, laundry rooms and on stairs. We also refinish existing hardwood (sand, stain and recoat), replace damaged boards and patch new wood into old floors.
Every install starts with the prep that makes a floor last: tear-out and disposal of carpet, tile, vinyl or glued-down floors, subfloor repair and leveling, and the right underlayment. Then come transitions and thresholds, stair nosing and treads, baseboard, shoe molding and quarter round, trimming doors for the new floor height, and moving furniture out and back.
