About Our Flooring Service

Flooring in Calgary

Calgary homeowners face a unique set of flooring challenges. Our climate swings from dry, frigid winters to warm, humid summers — dramatic temperature and humidity fluctuations that cheaper flooring materials simply can’t handle. Choosing the right flooring for a Calgary home isn’t just about looks; it’s about performance over the long term.

At Modern Home Remodeling, we supply and install flooring throughout Calgary — from NW communities like Hamptons and Royal Oak to SW neighbourhoods like Springbank Hill and Aspen Woods. Our team helps you navigate the options, recommends materials suited to Calgary’s climate and your specific rooms, and handles installation with precision.

What’s Included

Everything in Your Flooring Project

Hardwood Flooring

Nothing matches the warmth and prestige of genuine hardwood. We install solid and engineered hardwood in a wide range of species, stains, and plank widths. Engineered hardwood is particularly well-suited to Calgary homes — its layered construction handles humidity fluctuations better than solid hardwood and can be installed on all levels, including basements (with proper moisture management).

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) Flooring

Luxury vinyl plank has taken Calgary by storm — and for good reason. Modern LVP is waterproof, durable, dimensionally stable, and visually stunning. It’s ideal for Calgary kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and any area prone to moisture or heavy traffic. Many homeowners can’t tell LVP from hardwood at a glance — and it typically costs 30–50% less.

Laminate Flooring

Laminate remains a popular, budget-friendly flooring choice for Calgary homes. Modern laminate products offer realistic wood-look textures and scratch-resistant surfaces that stand up to kids and pets. Best used in dry areas of the home — living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways.

Tile Flooring

For bathrooms, kitchens, entryways, and mudrooms, tile is often the best choice — waterproof, hygienic, and virtually maintenance-free. We install porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, and large-format tiles with precision leveling for a grout-line-free contemporary look.

Carpet Removal & Subfloor Preparation

Before any flooring installation, the subfloor must be clean, level, and dry. We handle complete carpet removal, subfloor assessment, leveling, and moisture barrier installation — the unglamorous but critical work that determines whether your new floors last 10 years or 30.

Step 1 — Free In-Home Measurement & Consultation

We visit your home, measure every area, and assess your existing subfloor conditions. We discuss your lifestyle, budget, and aesthetic preferences to recommend the best flooring products.

Common Questions

Flooring FAQ

What is the best flooring for Calgary’s climate?

A: Given Calgary’s dramatic seasonal humidity changes (very dry winters, more humid summers), engineered hardwood and luxury vinyl plank (LVP) are the top-performing options. Solid hardwood can be used on above-grade levels with proper humidity management. LVP is 100% waterproof and dimensionally stable — excellent for basements and any moisture-prone areas. We’ll recommend the best product for each specific room in your home.

How much does flooring installation cost in Calgary?

A: Flooring installation costs in Calgary typically range from $4–$8/sq ft for labour only (depending on flooring type and subfloor conditions). Materials add $3–$15+/sq ft depending on your product selection. A typical 1,000 sq ft main floor installation with mid-range LVP runs $8,000–$15,000 supply-and-install. We provide free, detailed estimates for every project.

How long does flooring installation take?

A: Most flooring installations take 1–3 days for a typical home. Large homes or projects requiring extensive subfloor work may take up to a week. We minimize disruption to your daily routine and work efficiently to get your home back to normal quickly.

Can hardwood flooring be installed in a Calgary basement?

A: Solid hardwood is not recommended for below-grade installation in Calgary due to moisture concerns. Engineered hardwood can work in basements with proper moisture management. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is our top recommendation for Calgary basements — it’s 100% waterproof, warm underfoot with proper underlayment, and looks beautiful.

Should I replace flooring before or after painting?

A: We recommend painting before installing new flooring. This prevents paint drips on your new floors and allows painters to cut in at the baseboard line without stressing about protecting new material. If the sequence must be reversed, we take extra precautions to protect your new floors throughout the painting process. Convenient that we offer both services — we can coordinate the project sequence for you.
