Find flooring adhesives for your installation
Many flooring installations rely on adhesives to keep materials securely in place. However, flooring adhesives are not one-size-fits-all.
Different formulas are made for specific flooring products, substrates, and installation methods. Carpet, luxury vinyl, hardwood, and other materials may require different adhesives. Some projects may also call for seam adhesives or specialty tapes.
Always check the flooring manufacturer's installation instructions before choosing an adhesive. Our team can help you find options suited to your flooring and project requirements.
Choose underlayment and flooring padding
What goes beneath your flooring can make a difference in its performance. Depending on the product, underlayment may provide cushioning, sound reduction, moisture protection, or additional support.
Carpet typically requires carpet padding, while laminate and floating luxury vinyl may use underlayment unless it is already attached. Certain hardwood installations may also require specific materials beneath the floor.
The right choice depends on the flooring, subfloor, installation method, and manufacturer specifications.
Prepare your subfloor with flooring sundries
A new floor performs best when it starts with a properly prepared surface. Before installation, a subfloor may need cleaning, patching, leveling, or moisture management.
Floor preparation sundries can include patching compounds, primers, moisture barriers, leveling products, and other materials that help create a suitable installation surface. Requirements vary from project to project.
Addressing subfloor conditions before installation can help prevent problems later and create a smoother finished floor.
Finish your flooring project with trims and accessories
Small details can make a big difference once the main flooring is installed. Transitions, trim, and related accessories help create a finished appearance where flooring meets another surface, doorway, wall, or room.
Transition pieces can bridge different flooring materials or changes in floor height. Other accessories may be used around stairs, edges, and perimeter areas.
Choosing these items with your flooring helps you plan the entire project and reduces the chance of discovering a missing piece during installation.
