Heating
|
| |
Please
be sure to have your home temperature
at a minimum of 65 degrees at least
24 hours before and after the installation
as well as during the installation.
This will ensure that new flooring can
be properly installed. |
| |
|
|
Cabinets
and Table Tops |
| |
We
know how much people like to display
their crystal, porcelain, China, and
other breakables in their cabinets,
hutches, and on top of tables. But this
may interfere with your installation,
so we ask that you remove anything that
may fall during the installation process.
|
| |
|
|
Walls |
| |
Pictures,
low wall hangings, and floor-length
draperies may interfere with the installers’
movements. So please remove draperies
or tie them back at least 36”
from the floor. |

OId
Flooring |
| |
The
removal of old flooring is often necessary
and can take a considerable amount of
time. We can provide this service (except
for the removal of vinyl that may contain
asbestos) with charges based on the
amount of time spent on the job. If
your old vinyl flooring contains asbestos,
however, you will need to contact a
licensed asbestos removal company to
remove any vinyl flooring you may have.
Your sales professional will gladly
assist you in locating such a company.
|
| |
|
|
Closets |
| |
Closets
and storage areas need to be cleared,
and long-hanging clothing needs to be
removed so that there is a 36"
space above the floor to enable the
installers to work freely. |
| |
|
|
Doors |
| |
After
your new flooring has been installed,
it may be necessary to trim the bottoms
of some doors in order to accommodate
possible changes in height. We will
be happy to recommend the proper professional
to administer this service. |
| |
|
|
Furniture |
| |
We
will gladly handle the moving of your
regular furniture during installation.
This service can be arranged through
your sales professional and may require
an additional charge.
Please note that pool tables, grand
pianos, and wood stoves must be moved
by professionals and should be taken
care of prior to installation. Some
items that require special handling
include aquariums, waterbeds, grandfather
clocks, and console pianos. For items
like these, consult your sales professional.
|
| |
|
|
Appliances
and Electronic Equipment |
| |
Some
appliances may require special handling.
Arrangements for disconnections and
hookups of ice makers, gas appliances,
or commodes should be made prior to
installation. Stereos, computers, and
other electronic equipment should also
be moved before the time of installation.
|
| |
|
|
Scheduling |
| |
You
can expect your floor covering to be
professionally installed on schedule.
However, on very rare occasions, the
date or time may need to be changed
due to circumstances beyond our control.
The prompt and professional installation
of your floor covering is always a top
priority!
