Why it matters
The problem with cheap laminate flooring installation
Laminate is a great budget floor, but a DIY or rushed install shows fast: boards peak at the joints, gaps open up, and the whole floor sounds hollow and feels cheap. The difference is in the prep and the underlay. Done properly, laminate gives you a fresh, durable, good-looking floor for less – without the telltale signs of a bad job. Over an original board subfloor – common in older Ottawa homes – laminate and resilient floors need a panel-type underlay laid first (Ontario construction practice), not just a foam pad.

Why us
Why Ottawa homeowners choose Solomon Flooring
You get an Ottawa installer who treats laminate like a real floor – prepping the subfloor, using proper underlay, and leaving expansion gaps so it lies flat and quiet. You get the budget-friendly look you wanted without the cheap-job problems.
It comes down to cost, moisture and looks. Laminate is great for dry living areas on a budget; vinyl is better where water is a concern. We help you choose on the quote.
Is laminate good with pets?
Yes, modern laminate has a tough wear layer that resists scratches from claws and daily traffic.
Can you install over my existing floor?
Often yes, with the right underlay and prep. We confirm this on the measure.
Will it sound hollow?
Not when it is installed properly. The right underlay and a flat subfloor are what give laminate a solid, quiet feel.
How soon can you start?
Often within a week, depending on the season.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes, free and in writing.

Ottawa specifics
Brand labels, and getting the base right
A quick label check saves confusion: Torlys, a well-known name here, describes itself as an international flooring distribution specialist based in Mississauga, not a manufacturer – worth knowing when you compare warranties. On sound, be wary of a single acoustic number on the box: ratings only mean something as part of a tested floor-ceiling assembly (National Floor Covering Association of Canada). What actually makes laminate quiet and flat in an older Ottawa home is a proper panel underlay over the board subfloor and a level base, which is where we start every job.
