Luxury Vinyl Plank Installation in Waterloo, Ontario

Luxury vinyl plank is the most installed floor in Waterloo's rentals, condos and basements. Kitchener Prestige Flooring installs LVP and SPC for Waterloo landlords, property managers, condo owners and families, 10 to 15 minutes from our shop.

Our crew has completed more than 1,700 flooring jobs over 16+ years. In Waterloo, we specify vinyl for three very different situations: student units that need to survive tenants, condos with sound rules, and family basements over cold slabs.

We are licensed, insured and WSIB covered. Every Waterloo vinyl installation carries a written 1-year labour warranty.

Vinyl Plank for Waterloo's Student Rentals

The university district has one of the densest rental markets in Ontario. Units turn over on a strict calendar and take heavy wear.

We install 20 mil wear layer vinyl in kitchens, living areas and bedrooms. It resists scratches, dents and spills, and damaged planks can be swapped between tenants.

Landlords with several properties get the same product across units, so spare planks work anywhere. Waterloo's rental licensing inspections are also easier to pass with sound, clean floors.

Condo Installations and Sound Rules

Uptown and the university district have filled with condo towers. Most condo corporations set minimum impact sound ratings for hard floors and want to approve the underlay.

We provide lab test data for the underlay and vinyl assembly, install perimeter isolation and follow building rules on working hours and deliveries.

For stricter sound needs, our soundproof flooring team can recommend higher-performance assemblies.

Basements in Waterloo Family Homes

Basements in Lakeshore, Colonial Acres and Beechwood homes are often cold and sometimes damp. Waterproof vinyl is the most practical finished floor.

We test the slab, add a vapour barrier and flatten the floor before installing. Flatness is the biggest factor in how long vinyl lasts.

What wear layer should I choose for a Waterloo student rental?

We recommend 20 mil. It handles furniture moves, bikes, pets and heavy traffic, and it keeps the unit looking good for several tenant cycles.

Will vinyl plank meet my condo's sound requirements?

Usually, with the right underlay. Many Waterloo condo boards require a minimum impact rating and underlay approval. We provide tested underlay data before installation.

How fast can you install vinyl in a rental unit?

A typical one or two bedroom unit takes one to two days once the old floor is out. We batch several units during turnover weeks.
