Flooring Installation in New Albany, MS
LVP, engineered hardwood, and laminate flooring installed by local craftsmen who know Union County homes inside and out.
LVP, Hardwood, and Laminate Specialists
TAV Construction brings professional flooring installation to New Albany homeowners who want results that last. Mississippi's climate is tough on floors — high summer humidity, dramatic seasonal swings, and the heavy foot traffic of family life all demand materials and installation methods chosen with the South in mind. We have installed hundreds of floors across Union County and know exactly what holds up here.
Every project begins with a proper subfloor assessment. Moisture readings, squeak detection, soft spot repair, and leveling work happen before a single plank is ever set. That preparation is what separates a floor that looks great on day one from a floor that still looks great in year fifteen. We never skip it.
- Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) — 100% waterproof and dimensionally stable. The top choice for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and whole-home installs across Mississippi's humid climate.
- Engineered hardwood — Real wood veneer over a cross-ply core for the warmth and resale value of hardwood with far better resistance to seasonal humidity changes.
- Laminate flooring — High-density fiberboard construction with a realistic wood or stone surface. Cost-effective and durable for bedrooms, rental units, and living areas.
- Full subfloor preparation — Moisture testing, leveling compound, rotted plywood replacement, and squeak elimination before installation begins.
Flooring Options We Install
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)
The most popular floor in New Albany right now. Scratch-resistant, waterproof, and available in dozens of realistic wood-look finishes. Floats over existing subfloors with minimal prep in most cases.
Labor from $2.50–$4.50 / sq ft
Engineered Hardwood
A real wood surface bonded to a stable plywood or HDF core. Installs via nail-down, staple-down, glue-down, or floating methods. Outperforms solid hardwood in Mississippi's humidity.
Labor from $4.00–$8.00 / sq ft
Laminate Flooring
Budget-friendly without the budget look. Modern laminate prints are highly convincing and the AC4–AC5 wear layers handle residential traffic well. Ideal for rental turnovers and secondary bedrooms.
Labor from $2.00–$3.50 / sq ft
Subfloor Prep & Repair
Rotted plywood, high or low spots, squeaky joists — we handle it all before installation. Proper prep is non-negotiable if you want your floor to look and sound right for the long haul.
Comprehensive Subfloor and Trim Finishing
A floor is only as good as what is underneath it and around it. TAV Construction handles every layer — from subfloor repair to the final baseboard nail — so your New Albany home gets a truly finished result.
Subfloor Inspection & Repair
We probe every square foot for soft spots, rot, and high points before any flooring goes down. Damaged plywood sections are cut out and replaced. Self-leveling underlayment is applied where needed to eliminate dips that cause hollow sounds and premature cracking.
Moisture Testing
Mississippi's ground moisture can wick through slabs and into wood subfloors. We take moisture readings before installation and apply vapor barriers or moisture mitigation coatings where levels exceed manufacturer tolerances. This step alone prevents the majority of floor failures we see in older New Albany homes.
Baseboard & Quarter-Round
The gap between a floating floor and the wall must be covered cleanly. We reinstall existing baseboards or install new matching trim, add quarter-round or shoe molding where appropriate, and caulk and nail for a paint-ready finish. No gaps, no sloppy cuts.
Dust-Controlled Workspace
Flooring cuts produce fine dust that settles everywhere. We use dust-shrouded saws and contain work areas with barriers to protect adjacent rooms, HVAC systems, and your belongings. End-of-day cleanup is part of every job — you will not come home to a jobsite.
Furniture Moving & Haul-Away
We move standard furniture in the work area and relocate it back when installation is complete. Old flooring — carpet, vinyl, laminate — is removed and hauled off the property. You do not need to arrange a separate dumpster or demo crew.
Transition Strips & Thresholds
Every doorway, step, and room-to-room change needs the right transition: T-molding, reducer, end cap, or threshold. We select and install the correct profile for each application so flooring heights change smoothly and safely throughout the house.
