Burbank Flooring Installation — Local Expertise, Quality Results
Burbank's 1930s–1950s Craftsman and ranch homes often have original oak hardwood waiting to be uncovered — Caspi Construction restores, replaces, and installs flooring that makes the most of what your home already has.
Burbank's residential housing stock is one of the most interesting flooring markets in the San Fernando Valley.
Magnolia Park, Chandler Estates, and the Burbank Hills neighborhoods are full of 1930s–1950s Spanish Colonial cottages and mid-century ranch homes where original oak or fir hardwood lies beneath decades of carpet — perfectly preserved in many cases, salvageable in most.
At the same time, newer engineered hardwood and luxury vinyl plank products have transformed what's possible in secondary rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms where solid hardwood was never practical.
A flooring contractor in Burbank who understands the original building stock — and carries Republic Flooring's engineered hardwood and LVP collections — can address both needs within a single project.
Caspi Construction is a licensed Burbank flooring company (CSLB #1091631) with a 4.9★ rating.
Our Tarzana showroom carries flooring samples in person.
Permits through Burbank Building Division only if subfloor structural work is involved.
Our Burbank Flooring Installation Services
Hardwood Floor Refinishing & Restoration
Original oak or fir hardwood under carpet in a Burbank Craftsman home is one of the best surprises a homeowner can find during a renovation.
If the boards are in good condition — no structural damage, gaps less than a quarter inch, boards not cupped — refinishing is the most cost-effective path.
We sand to bare wood, repair minor splits and gaps, and apply a durable finish in the sheen level the homeowner selects.
The result is a hardwood floor that looks as close to new as the boards allow, with decades of additional service life.
Republic Flooring Engineered Hardwood Installation
Republic Flooring's engineered hardwood collection — available in wide-plank formats from 5 to 7 inches — is our primary engineered hardwood specification for Burbank flooring installation projects.
Engineered hardwood is dimensionally more stable than solid hardwood in Burbank's climate variation, and Republic's multi-layer construction delivers the look and feel of solid wood at a more accessible price point.
We carry samples in our Tarzana showroom for in-person selection.
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) Installation
Republic Flooring's LVP lines are our recommendation for Burbank kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and any space where moisture or heavy use rules out hardwood.
Modern LVP in realistic wood-grain formats — particularly in 6- and 7-inch widths — is visually indistinguishable from engineered hardwood in a finished room.
The waterproof core and wear layer make it the most practical flooring choice in active family spaces.
Subfloor Assessment & Preparation
Flooring installation success depends on what's underneath.
In Burbank's older homes, slab foundations are common in 1950s and 1960s builds — and those slabs may have moisture issues or surface variation that affects installation.
We assess the subfloor condition before any material is selected, recommend a moisture barrier where needed, and perform leveling or patching to ensure a stable substrate.
Subfloor structural repairs that require Burbank Building Division permits are identified before work begins.

Recent Flooring Installation Projects Near Burbank
Project 1 — Magnolia Park Craftsman Hardwood Reveal
A 1944 Magnolia Park Craftsman had three-inch oak strip hardwood under wall-to-wall carpet throughout the main living areas — carpet that had been installed in the late 1970s and never removed.
When the homeowner pulled back a corner during a minor renovation, the hardwood beneath was in excellent condition.
We removed the carpet and pad, sanded the oak floors through multiple grits, filled small gaps with color-matched filler, and applied three coats of a satin oil-modified finish.
The original floors came back beautifully, and the homeowner had hardwood throughout the main floor for the cost of refinishing rather than replacement.
Project 2 — Chandler Estates Wide-Plank Engineered Hardwood
A Chandler Estates mid-century ranch had carpet in the bedrooms and tile in the kitchen and hallways — mismatched surfaces that broke the visual flow of an otherwise open floor plan.
The homeowner wanted wide-plank hardwood throughout the main level.
We installed Republic Flooring Castlebury engineered hardwood in a 6-inch Brushed Birch format across the living room, dining room, hallway, and all three bedrooms, with proper transitions at the tile kitchen threshold.
The flooring installation in Burbank was completed in three days and unified the home's main floor with a consistent warm-wood aesthetic.
Project 3 — Burbank Hills Ranch LVP Installation
A Burbank Hills homeowner had a 1962 ranch home with original resilient tile in the kitchen and hallway — a material that had served its time and was showing significant staining and one cracked tile near the back door.
The kitchen also had a laundry closet that needed flooring coordination.
We installed Republic Flooring SolidTech Plus LVP in a Weathered Oak format throughout the kitchen, hallway, and laundry area — waterproof, scratch-resistant, and installed as a floating floor directly over the existing tile without demolition.
The flooring contractor work in Burbank was completed in one day.

Common Questions From Homeowners
Standard flooring installation — carpet removal, hardwood refinishing, engineered hardwood or LVP installation over an existing subfloor — does not require a permit in Burbank. If subfloor structural repairs are needed, a Burbank Building Division permit may be required. Caspi Construction assesses subfloor conditions before work begins and identifies any permit requirements as part of the project scope.
In most cases, yes. Original oak or fir hardwood under carpet in Burbank's 1930s–1950s homes is typically in refinishable condition — boards are sound, gaps are manageable, and the wood has enough thickness for sanding. We inspect the exposed boards before committing to a refinishing scope and provide a clear assessment of what restoration will and won't achieve.
A whole-home LVP or engineered hardwood installation in a standard Burbank ranch home — 1,200 to 1,800 square feet — typically takes two to three days for installation plus one day for subfloor preparation if needed. Hardwood refinishing projects typically run two to three days for sanding and three or more coats of finish, with 24-hour dry time between coats.
