Struvento Flooring
Subfloor Preparation
Subfloor preparation is the unglamorous work that decides whether planks move, peak, or last. Patching, fastening, and flatness are scoped as work—not as a free courtesy.
Why this service exists
- Addresses the reason new floors fail
- Can be a standalone visit before owner-hired installers
- Moisture conversations happen here, not after callbacks
- Prep for the floor system being installed
