New hardwood flooring in a bright remodeled living space

We flatten and prepare substrates, then install hardwood, engineered hardwood, tile and laminate with the specified expansion gaps and transitions.

We also install radiant heated flooring under compatible tile and engineered flooring.

Planning your project in Berkeley

We offer remodeling services for Berkeley's older homes, with attention to existing materials and current code requirements.

The local housing includes brown-shingle and Craftsman homes, a great many built before 1930. Older homes may have hardwood beneath carpet or vinyl. We assess its condition before discussing refinishing or replacement, and check substrate levels before installation.

We serve Berkeley, including Elmwood, North Berkeley, Claremont and Westbrae. Project planning here accounts for century-old framing, knob-and-tube remnants and strict local review. Humidity and moisture conditions help determine which flooring materials suit the space.

Permits and inspections in Berkeley

Permits for work in Berkeley go through the City of Berkeley Permit Service Center. Flooring itself is usually permit-exempt, which keeps the timeline short — though we flag it when subfloor or structural repair changes that. We handle the permit application and coordinate inspections.

Frequently asked questions

Which flooring is right for my project?

It depends on the room, the traffic and the look you want — solid hardwood refinishes for generations, engineered handles moisture swings better, tile wins wet rooms, laminate and LVP take a beating for less. We'll walk options and samples at the free estimate.

How long does flooring installation take?

Most single-room installs run 1–3 days; whole-home flooring runs about a week depending on prep. Materials may need days on-site to acclimate first — we build that into the schedule.

Do you level uneven floors in older Berkeley homes?

Yes. AZ Elevated Builders levels uneven floors before installing — settling and out-of-flat slabs are standard in older Berkeley housing stock. We grind or self-level before install, because flooring is only as good as what's under it.
