Floating Floor Sale in Mirabel at Plancher d'ici

Why a floating floor works well for many renovations in Mirabel

A floating floor is made up of planks or panels that click together, installed over an underlayment that helps absorb some impact noise. It's an option often chosen when replacing worn out hardwood or a tired carpet, since installation doesn't require nailing into the structure and adapts to several types of subfloors.

Before choosing this type of flooring over hardwood, an engineered product or vinyl, ask yourself the right questions:

  • What is the room used for: a quiet bedroom, a busy hallway, a family living room?
  • Is there moisture to manage, like in a basement or near an entryway?
  • Is acoustic comfort important, for example in a condo or a multi-storey home?
  • How much upkeep are you willing to put in over the years?

These factors often matter more for choosing the right product than looks alone. A durable, well-chosen floating floor holds up in a high-traffic area, while a more delicate option is better suited to a bedroom or home office.

See the floor in your room before you order

Rather than guessing from a small sample, you can take a photo of your room and see the floor you've chosen laid out in it in under a minute, right through the Try It In My Room tool. This isn't live augmented reality: it's a rendering based on your photo, designed to help you compare shades and finishes in the real context of your home before adding the product to your cart.

For a renovation in Mirabel, this is especially handy if you're torn between a few tones or if the natural light in your room changes the look of a sample held up in store or on screen.

Old floor removal: a service separate from installation

When you're removing old hardwood or carpet before installing a floating floor, two services are available separately: installation and old floor removal. These are two distinct fixed-price options, and a measurement visit is always scheduled alongside installation, to confirm quantities and your room's needs before work begins.

It's worth knowing that some items aren't included in the installation price: baseboards, mouldings, subfloor levelling and underlayment need to be planned separately. If your subfloor has irregularities, it's best to discuss this at the quote stage rather than once the work has already started.

Installation carried out by Plancher d'ici is guaranteed for one year, which covers the quality of the installation itself.

What affects the price of a floating floor

No pricing is listed here, since rates change and live directly in the online shop. What generally influences the cost of a floating floor project in Mirabel includes:

  • The condition of the current surface and the prep work required.
  • The total area of the room or rooms involved.
  • The finish and quality of the product chosen.
  • Whether or not you add installation and old floor removal.

For a clear picture tailored to your home, the best next step is to request a quote once you've selected your product.

Things to know before you order

A few details help avoid surprises. First, returns are only accepted on boxes that have never been opened, and this depends on the type of flooring: hardwood, engineered products and discounted items are not accepted for return. Also, Plancher d'ici doesn't sell or install stairs or stair nosing; if your project includes a staircase, that's not a service offered here.

The service area covers a wide territory, from Mont-Tremblant to Sherbrooke and all the way to Trois-Rivières, including Mirabel. To check the details for your area, visit the service areas page. You can also browse the blog to compare different flooring families before making your choice.
