Will LVP fit under the doors in an older Boise bungalow?

Usually, but it has to be checked. Older Boise homes were built around thin finished floors, so we measure the finished stack before demolition and plan door trimming or a different transition where clearance is tight.

Do you install over the board subfloors common in the North End?

Yes, with an overlay. Diagonal board subfloors move seasonally and rarely meet a plank manufacturer’s flatness tolerance on their own, so a properly fastened underlayment panel usually goes down first.

Can you work where there is only street parking?

Yes. In the North End and on the Bench we stage material in smaller batches and keep the walk and sidewalk clear through demolition and haul-out.

LVP flooring installation in Boise, Idaho

Boise sits directly east of our Meridian base, and the housing stock could not be more different from the subdivisions we work in every day.

Boise housing stock

The North End and Bench are dominated by pre-war bungalows and 1950s–60s ranches: narrow hallways, plaster walls, original diagonal board subfloors in some homes, and doorways that were never sized for a modern finished-floor stack. Southeast Boise and the foothills lean newer and larger, with walk-out basements and multi-level layouts that create more transitions per square foot than a flat Meridian floor plan.

What the subfloor usually looks like here

Older Boise houses frequently have board subfloors or a plywood overlay added during a past remodel, both of which need attention before plank goes down. Heat registers in the floor, radiator scars, and previous patch work at removed walls are all common. Hillside and walk-out basement rooms bring slab moisture checks into the scope.

Working in Boise

Boise work is a short drive from Meridian. Older neighborhoods mean street parking and tight loading, so we stage material in smaller batches and keep the sidewalk clear during demo and haul-out.
