Flooring and Finish Work That Stays Level
Interior remodeling including flooring, kitchens, baths, and trim in Spokane and Coeur d'Alene
When you walk across a floor in Spokane and Coeur d'Alene that feels uneven or notice gaps forming along baseboards, the issue usually starts below the surface with subfloor movement, improper leveling, or moisture exposure. Interior work that lasts requires preparation before any finish material goes down, and that includes repairing joists, leveling subfloors, and confirming the structure is dry and stable. Stone Base Contractors LLC handles interior services across Spokane and the surrounding region, including flooring installation, kitchen and bath remodels, trim, doors, stairs, drywall, and finish carpentry.
This service covers all flooring types: hardwood, engineered wood, luxury vinyl plank, laminate, tile, and carpet. Each installation begins with subfloor inspection and repair if needed, followed by leveling and moisture testing before any planks or tiles are laid. Kitchen and bath remodels include demolition, cabinet installation, countertop fitting, backsplash tiling, vanity placement, framing adjustments, and painting. Cali Flooring products are used with client authorization, and the work proceeds with clean site practices and documented timelines.

Why Subfloor Condition Determines How Long Floors Last
Interior work in Spokane and Coeur d'Alene begins with subfloor inspection using a straightedge and moisture meter to identify low spots, movement, or water damage that could compromise the finished floor. Any damaged sections are replaced, gaps are filled, and the surface is leveled using compound or shims so the new flooring sits flat and secure. Hardwood and engineered planks are acclimated to the room before installation, and tile underlayment is checked for deflection to prevent cracking.
After the flooring is installed, you will notice that planks do not bounce underfoot, tile grout lines stay even, and transitions between rooms sit flush without tripping hazards. Baseboards fit tight against the walls, and doors clear the new floor height without scraping. The room looks finished and the floor feels solid when furniture is moved back into place.
Kitchen and bath work includes removing old cabinets, cutting drywall for plumbing changes, installing new vanities and countertops, and tiling backsplashes or shower surrounds. Paint and trim are completed after cabinetry is set, and all plumbing and electrical connections are tested before final inspection. This service does not include appliance installation or HVAC modifications, but it does cover all carpentry, tiling, and finish work needed to complete the remodel.
Homeowners usually want to know how long the room will be unusable, whether old flooring needs removal, and what happens if the subfloor is damaged. These details help plan around the work and avoid surprises once the project starts.
Common Concerns Before Starting Interior Work
What types of flooring can you install in Spokane homes and beyond?
The service includes hardwood, engineered wood, luxury vinyl plank, laminate, tile, and carpet. Each type requires different subfloor preparation, and the installer is certified in all formats.
How do you handle subfloor damage found during installation?
Damaged sections are cut out and replaced with new plywood or OSB, then leveled to match the surrounding floor. You are notified before any repair work begins, and the cost is discussed upfront.
How long does a typical kitchen remodel take?
Most kitchen remodels take two to four weeks depending on the scope, cabinet lead times, and whether plumbing or electrical changes are needed. You receive a written timeline before work begins.
What flooring products do you typically use?
Cali Flooring products are used with client permission, and other brands are sourced based on your preference and budget. All materials are discussed and approved before ordering.
Why does flooring acclimation matter in Spokane and the surrounding areas?
Wood and engineered products need time to adjust to the room's temperature and humidity before installation. Skipping this step can cause planks to expand or contract after they are nailed down, creating gaps or buckling.
