A successful installation starts with an empty space. Move small furniture and personal items out of the work area. In some cases, your installation agreement may include furniture moving, so clarify this beforehand. Clear paths for the installation crew, protect adjacent areas from dust, and ensure the room temperature is stable. Acclimation of flooring products to your home's humidity and temperature is essential.
