Toronto flooring project · Eglinton Avenue West

Partial floor and subfloor replacement—before and after.

Selective removal exposed the areas that required rebuilding. New plywood created a sound, consistent base for the finished plank flooring.

The transformation

Repair what is underneath before installing the new finish.

The supplied photographs document worn existing flooring, selective demolition, exposed framing, replacement plywood, and the completed light-plank floor.

Rather than treating the job as a surface-only update, the affected floor and subfloor areas were opened so the base could be rebuilt where required. The new floor then continued through the kitchen and connecting circulation area with coordinated perimeter and doorway transitions.

The photographs verify the visible work stages. Client identity, exact street number, product specifications, budget, and schedule are not published.

Case study at a glance

Problem, scope, construction record, and result.

ProblemWorn flooring and patched sections indicated that affected areas below the finish needed to be opened and reviewed.

Scope of workSelective flooring and subfloor removal, replacement plywood preparation, new plank flooring, and transitions.

Before photosTwo published views document surface wear and an existing patched floor section.

During constructionSix repair-stage images show selective demolition, exposed framing, and the rebuilt plywood base.

After photosSeven completion views record the continuous new floor through the connected rooms.

ResultA sound prepared base and a consistent light-plank finish across the documented area.

Documented scope

A selective flooring repair from removal to finished surface.

Existing-condition reviewWorn and patched floor areas were documented before removal so the affected scope could be opened selectively.

Floor & subfloor removalDamaged finish flooring and the affected underlying sections were removed to expose the framing and base conditions.

Plywood subfloor preparationNew plywood panels rebuilt the opened areas and provided a continuous installation surface for the finish floor.

New plank flooringLight wood-look planks were installed through the connected rooms, with perimeter, doorway, and adjoining-floor transitions coordinated.
