Luxury Vinyl Plank Installation in Redlands
Waterproof, kid-proof, dog-proof flooring that looks like real hardwood - installed in a day or two.
Luxury Vinyl Plank in Redlands, CA
When Redlands homeowners in Smiley Heights and South Redlands are done living with builder carpet, this is the install they call us for. Heavy historic stock (1890s – 1940s) with raised foundations and original-growth wood floors - Many Redlands homes sit on raised foundations, so we read crawlspace moisture and check the joists before we touch the surface - it is the difference between a floor that lasts and one that cups.
Our San Bernardino shop is about 15 minutes from Redlands - close enough for fast service in Smiley Heights and the rest of the city, and established enough that we know the building stock and the local permitting quirks.

About Redlands Homes
Redlands has more historic homes per capita than any other Inland Empire city - Victorian, craftsman, and Spanish-revival from the 1890s through 1930s. Original Douglas fir and oak floors hide under decades of carpet, and refinishing them is some of the most rewarding work we do.
Housing profile: Heavy historic stock (1890s – 1940s) with raised foundations and original-growth wood floors. South Redlands and Smiley Heights have larger turn-of-century homes; newer 1990s – 2010s tracts sit in north and east Redlands.
Flooring in Redlands: What Local Homes Need
Redlands is the Inland Empire's historic-home capital, and it is where our refinishing craft matters most. Around Smiley Heights, South Redlands and the streets near Kimberly Crest and Smiley Park, the 1890s-1930s Victorian, craftsman and Spanish-revival homes sit on raised foundations over old-growth Douglas fir and quarter-sawn oak. These boards are denser and narrower than anything milled today, so we sand them gently, hand-edge the corners, and match traditional stains rather than replacing irreplaceable wood. Working raised foundations also means addressing the real source of problems from below - perimeter rot, plumbing leaks under bathrooms, and squeaks - before refinishing the surface. Out in the newer north and east Redlands tracts and toward Mentone, the 1990s-2010s homes are slab-built, where engineered plank over a proper barrier is the practical call. Redlands' citrus-belt humidity off the foothills runs a touch higher than the valley floor, which we factor into cure times. Our shop is about 15 minutes west in San Bernardino.
