How SPC Flooring Is Installed — Step-by-Step Process
How We Install SPC Flooring — The Professional Process
Understanding the installation process helps you prepare your home and know what to expect. Here's exactly how our team transforms your floors.
Step 1: Site Inspection & Measurement
Before any work begins, our team visits your home to: - Measure every room precisely (laser measurement for accuracy) - Check subfloor conditions (level, moisture, cracks) - Identify potential issues (door clearance, transitions, thresholds) - Help you choose colors and textures with physical samples
This visit is completely free and takes about 30-45 minutes.
Step 2: Preparation Day
On installation day, we start with preparation: - Move light furniture to a safe area - Remove existing floor transitions and skirting (if needed) - Clean the subfloor thoroughly — dust and debris affect adhesion - Level any uneven areas (self-leveling compound if needed) - Lay moisture barrier / underlayment
Step 3: Installation
SPC uses a click-lock system — no glue or nails needed: 1. Start from the longest wall, working toward the door 2. First row is critical — must be perfectly straight 3. Each plank clicks into the previous one at an angle 4. Use spacers along walls (8-10mm expansion gap) 5. Cut pieces as needed for end pieces and around obstacles 6. Stagger joints for natural appearance (minimum 30cm offset)
Step 4: Finishing Touches
- Install new skirting boards to cover expansion gaps
- Add transition strips at doorways and floor-type changes
- Trim door frames if needed for clearance
- Final cleaning of the entire floor
- Quality inspection with the homeowner
Step 5: Handover
- Walk through with you to check every area
- Provide care and maintenance guide
- Register your warranty
- Clean up all waste and remove from your home
