Thinking about installing your own floors? Before you start, check the warranty. 👀
DIY flooring can absolutely be done—but there’s one detail homeowners sometimes overlook: the manufacturer’s installation requirements.
If something goes wrong later, the installation may be inspected as part of the warranty claim process. If it wasn’t installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications, that could affect your coverage.
Before you DIY, know what your warranty requires. Sometimes professional installation protects more than just the finished look.
