Vinyl Plank Installation in Toronto & the GTA

Waterproof, scratch-resistant luxury vinyl plank, measured on site and installed in days, not weeks. Licensed, insured and WSIB-covered since 2019.

Why homeowners across the GTA are choosing vinyl plank

Luxury vinyl plank has become the most-requested floor we install, and for good reason. It is fully waterproof, so it goes where hardwood can’t: kitchens, basements, laundry rooms, mudrooms and bathrooms. The wear layer shrugs off dog claws, chair legs and dropped toys. And because it clicks together over a thin underlay, a whole main floor can be done in two or three days, including taking out what’s there now.

We install two kinds. SPC (stone-plastic composite) has a rigid, dense core that hides small subfloor imperfections and holds up in busy rooms. WPC (wood-plastic composite) is slightly softer and warmer underfoot, which some people prefer in bedrooms and living rooms. We’ll walk you through both at the estimate and bring samples, so you see the colour in your own light before you decide.

Where vinyl plank makes the most sense

Kitchens. Spills, dropped pans and chair legs are the everyday life of a kitchen floor. SPC plank takes all three without staining, chipping or cupping, and it’s warmer underfoot than tile.

Basements. Concrete slabs sweat. Vinyl plank with a vapour-barrier underlay is the floor we recommend for almost every GTA basement, finished or being finished.

Rentals and busy family homes. When the floor has to survive tenants, kids or dogs, a thick wear layer matters more than species or stain. A good SPC line looks new for years with nothing more than sweeping.

Bathrooms and laundry rooms. Where tile feels cold and hardwood can’t go, vinyl plank gives you a wood look that can live next to a tub or a washing machine.

Vinyl lines we install and stand behind

We sell flooring at contractor pricing, and we only recommend lines we’ve installed enough times to trust. For vinyl plank, that means:

Simba Flooring

Canadian-made SPC with a wide range of oak and maple looks; our go-to for whole-home installs.

Grandeur Flooring

Thick wear layers and realistic embossed grain; good choice where the floor takes a beating.

Fuzion Flooring

Strong colour selection in both SPC and WPC, with attached underlay on most lines.

Beaulieu Canada

Long-plank formats and consistent batches, which matters on big open floor plans.

Woden Flooring

Budget-friendly without feeling it; a favourite for rentals and basements.

What affects the price of a vinyl plank installation

Every quote we give is based on a site visit, not a phone estimate, because the same square footage can cost very different amounts depending on what we find. The things that move the number most:

The plank itself

Wear-layer thickness, core type (SPC vs WPC) and whether underlay is attached account for most of the range between lines.

What's coming out

Carpet lifts fast. Glued-down vinyl or tile takes longer and generates more disposal.

Subfloor condition

Dips, humps and squeaks need levelling compound or screwing down before plank goes on. We check this at the visit, so there are no surprises on install day.

Layout

Open rooms go quickly; hallways, closets, angled walls and lots of doorways mean more cuts and transitions.

Stairs

Vinyl on stairs needs stair nosings and more labour per square foot than a flat room. We measure every tread, riser and handrail at the visit.

Trim

Re-using your baseboards is cheaper than replacing them; some older homes need new quarter-round regardless.

You’ll get one written quote covering material, labour, removal and disposal, with no hidden fees.

How it works

Site visit

We come to you, measure every room (and every stair, spindle and handrail if stairs are involved), photograph the space and check the subfloor. Samples come with us.

Written quote

Usually within one business day. Material, labour, removal and disposal in one number.

Delivery and prep

We deliver the plank a few days early so it acclimatises, then remove your old floor and prepare the subfloor.

Install and walk-through

A typical 1,000 sq ft main floor is finished in 2–3 days. We re-fit the trim, clean up, haul the waste and walk the floor with you before we leave.

What people are saying

Best installation quality

The install job was excellent and completed in a very timely manner. They were very professional, clean, followed COVID protocols and were also very friendly. Equipment and tools were top notch. They were very meticulous and perfectionists with their work.

Amazing team to work with

Flooring office did an amazing job with my stairs. They were extremely polite, punctual, reliable and helpful. They are hard working and did the best job. I highly recommend them to anyone and would definitely hire them again for any future jobs!

We had previously purchased flooring that needed to be installed in two bedrooms and a hallway. Flooring Office did the installation and supplied and installed new baseboards as well. In addition they completely redid our staircase.

Vinyl plank installation FAQ

Is vinyl plank really waterproof?

The plank itself is. SPC and WPC cores don't absorb water, so spills, pet accidents and wet boots don't damage them. What vinyl can't do is stop water reaching the subfloor through the seams if it's left standing for a long time, so we still recommend addressing leaks quickly — but for kitchens, basements and bathrooms it is the safest floor we install.

Can you install vinyl plank in a basement?

Yes, and it's the floor we recommend for most GTA basements. We check moisture levels at the estimate and use a vapour-barrier underlay where the slab calls for it.

Do you remove the old floor?

Yes. Removal and disposal are included in every vinyl quote. Carpet, laminate, old vinyl and most tile all come out; we'll tell you at the visit if anything unusual (like asbestos-era sheet flooring) needs a specialist first.

How long does a vinyl plank installation take?

A typical 1,000 sq ft main floor is finished in 2–3 days including removal. Single rooms are often done in a day. Stairs add time because each step is cut and fitted individually.

Can vinyl plank go on stairs?

Yes. We fit matching stair nosings on every tread so the edge is finished and safe. We measure every tread, riser and handrail at the site visit.

SPC or WPC — which should I pick?

SPC is harder and more dent-resistant, and hides small subfloor dips better; it's our default for kitchens, hallways and anywhere with heavy furniture or pets. WPC is a touch softer and warmer underfoot, which people like in bedrooms. We'll bring samples of both.

Do you need to level my subfloor?

Often a little, sometimes not at all. Vinyl plank is forgiving, but a dip bigger than a few millimetres over a short span will telegraph through. We check at the estimate and include any levelling in the quote so there's nothing added later.

What does the warranty cover?

Our 1-year workmanship warranty covers the installation itself: lifting, gapping, loose transitions or trim, and anything that comes down to how it was fitted. Surface scratches and damage from use are excluded. The plank carries its own manufacturer warranty on top, which we register for you.
