Floor removal & demo in Beaverton, OR

Yes, and it costs nothing to check — pull back a corner in a closet. In Beaverton mid-century housing there is often original hardwood underneath, and if it is sound, refinishing may be the better result for less money than a new floor. We will tell you honestly which way we would go, including when the answer is that the old floor is not worth saving.

Always, and in the low-lying parts of Beaverton it matters. The city grew on ground that was wetland, and moisture coming up through a slab or crawlspace will destroy a floating floor no matter what it cost. We test, and if a vapour barrier or a different product is the answer, we say so before you spend anything.

Yes. We quote removal and disposal as part of the job, so the number you sign is the number that covers getting the old floor out and away. The only time it changes is if we find something underneath that genuinely was not visible at the estimate, and we would talk to you before doing anything about it.

Worried, no. Careful, yes. Resilient sheet flooring and some adhesives from before about 1980 can contain asbestos, and it is only a hazard if it is disturbed and made airborne. We identify it and have it tested rather than guessing, and where it is present the removal is handled by the proper route. It is manageable — it just should not be improvised.

Carpet removal is clean and quick. Scraping adhered vinyl or breaking out an old tile floor is genuinely dusty and noisy for a day or two. We contain the work area, cover the routes through the house and clean up at the end of each day, and we will tell you honestly at the estimate which kind of job yours is going to be.

We can, though there is a minimum on any job and removal on its own is not the bulk of what we do. Give us a call and describe it. If it makes sense we will take it on, and if you would genuinely be better served by someone else we will say that instead.
