Product selection, subfloor preparation, installation, refinishing and the transitions and trim that decide whether a floor looks finished.

Choose the closest task. Each page states its normal scope and its limits.
- Flooring Removal and ReplacementWhat is involved in taking the old floor out, which is more often the surprise than putting the new one down.
- Flooring Repair, Transitions and TrimFixing part of a floor and finishing the edges — the work that makes a repair look intentional.
- Hardwood Flooring and RefinishingInstalling new hardwood, or deciding whether the existing floor can be brought back instead.
- LVP and Laminate FlooringChosen for cost and for how it handles moisture — and the product least forgiving of the surface underneath it.
- Subfloor Preparation and LevelingThe stage that decides everything above it, priced and explained on its own.
- Tile FlooringTile on a floor, where deflection in the structure below is what cracks it.
Important boundaries.
Licensed specialistsWhere a job needs regulated electrical, plumbing or gas work, that part is carried out by the appropriate licensed specialist. Livanzh LLC coordinates it and identifies it in the written scope.
Service-specific limits
- We do not install a floating or glued floor over a subfloor outside the manufacturer’s flatness tolerance. Most warranties are written against that tolerance, and the floor telegraphs the defect whether or not the warranty is claimed.
- An exact match to an existing floor cannot be guaranteed. Batch, age and wear all differ, and we will show you the difference before committing.
- Conditions behind existing finishes cannot be priced before they are visible. What is found is written up as a change with its own price, not absorbed silently or invoiced afterwards.
- Asbestos-containing floor materials and their adhesives are not removed by us. Testing and abatement are separate and specialist.
Before work starts.
Materials responsibility is agreed for each project and written into the scope. Livanzh LLC assesses the conditions, states inclusions and exclusions, and prices changes for approval before carrying them out.
