Premier Vinyl and Luxury Vinyl Plank Installation

From Top Industry Professionals


Vinyl flooring or LVP (luxury vinyl plank) have become the most popular flooring choice for homes today. This is true for new builds and flooring renovations done in older homes. There is good reason for this popularity. Although traditional flooring, with real hardwood and stone, can be desirable, the cost of this kind of flooring can be unattainable for many. Furthermore, hardwood flooring is vulnerable to scratches and damage. Repairs for these authentic materials are not as simple or again as affordable as their modern counterparts in vinyl.

On the other hand, vinyl flooring is both aesthetically appealing and financially accessible. The versatile selection of patterns and the durability of vinyl make it an option for any home with any aesthetic. This is why we see this kind of flooring in both houses, new and old. Whatever your flooring needs and desires may be, there is a vinyl floor that will satisfy both.

At Footprints Floors we specialize in the installation of vinyl and LVP flooring . If you are currently in search of vinyl floor installation in Chicago, give Footprints Floors a call and request a free consultation. We only employ qualified, licensed contractors to ensure that our clients receive the highest quality flooring installation.

Why LVP or Vinyl Flooring?

Durable/Water Resistant
Variety of Patterns
Cost Effective

Vinyl or luxury vinyl flooring can be an ideal choice for any home or any room. These flooring types are durable and water resistant making them exceptional choices for bathrooms, kitchens, mudrooms and entryways. The maintenance of vinyl is simple and easy. Just another attribute that makes this material a great candidate for flooring in those high traffic areas of your home.

In addition, LVP or vinyl flooring features flawless images, realistic textures and individual planks, sheets or tiles to give the look and feel of the material of your choosing. With an array of patterns and images to choose from, vinyl can achieve the appearance of real hardwood, marble, ceramic, stone, or something entirely unique! Your floors can become the statement piece you desire and at a fraction of the price when you choose vinyl.

Is Vinyl Better than Linoleum?

Vinyl and linoleum have different advantages in any remodeling project. Consider your specific needs and preferences to make the best choice for your home or business. Here are a few reasons why choosing vinyl floor installation in Chicago may be better for your project.

One of the main advantages of vinyl flooring is its water resistance. Luxury vinyl plank, or LVP flooring, is made from synthetic materials, which makes it impervious to water and resistant to moisture damage. This makes it an ideal choice for areas prone to spills, such as kitchens and bathrooms, or spaces like the basement that are vulnerable to flooding. In contrast, linoleum is made from natural materials such as linseed oil and cork, which can be susceptible to water damage over time. While linoleum can be sealed to help prevent water damage, it may not be as durable as vinyl in areas with high humidity or moisture.

Another advantage of vinyl flooring is its durability and resistance to wear and tear. Vinyl is made from multiple layers, including a wear layer that helps protect the surface from scratches and dents. This makes it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas such as hallways and entryways and homes with pets or children. Linoleum is also durable but may require regular maintenance, such as waxing and buffing, to maintain its appearance and prevent wear.

LVP flooring also offers a wider variety of design options than linoleum. Vinyl can mimic the look of hardwood, tile, or stone and come in a wide range of colors and patterns. If you’re looking to breathe fresh air into your space, vinyl flooring offers a diverse range of styles so you can find the perfect design choice for your home or business. On the other hand, linoleum may have more limited design options and may not be as versatile in matching different design styles.

Modern vinyl flooring has evolved over the past few years into a diverse array of styles and finishes that can fit into the style and aesthetic of most homes. It’s also a great affordable and long-lasting choice. With many homeowners choosing to remodel an older home or make improvements to their current estate, vinyl flooring can be an excellent choice to update the design of a room. Footprints Floors has trained staff to make vinyl plank flooring installation a smooth process for homeowners in Chicago.

What To Expect With Installation:

When you have hired Footprints Floors to do your flooring installation, you can count on a few things.
  • Professional skilled contractors
  • Affordable rates
  • Quality installation
  • Preparation and clean-up

We at Footprints Floors are a family-founded company. We take great pride in providing high quality work at an affordable rate. We accomplish this by employing skilled contractors capable of impeccable flooring installation. In addition, our business model of providing the labor for floor installation and leaving out the showroom maintenance, (we do not sell flooring), allows us to cut costs and share that savings with our clients. Even though we do not sell our own flooring, should you like recommendations for flooring retailers, we can provide you the contact information for those we trust. Furthermore, because of this business model, your flooring selection will not be limited by a finite inventory. You may have your pick from any vendor allowing your design possibilities to be limitless.

When you schedule an appointment with Footprints Floors for flooring installation, we will perform the demolition of your current floor, an assessment of subflooring, lay a new underlayment (if necessary), install the new vinyl flooring and clean up the entire work site. When we leave your home, you will have a beautiful new space to enjoy and admire.

Other Considerations When Choosing Vinyl:

You are now familiar with the many positive attributes of vinyl and LVP, and may be wondering if there are any other aspects that need to be considered before making your selection. We have a few pro-tips for you to keep in mind.

Vinyl Quality Can Vary


While vinyl floors can be an affordable option, you do want to take care when selecting your vinyl product. Not all vinyl or LVP floors are made with the same quality standards. If in doubt feel free to ask our expert opinion on selecting a high quality product.

Vinyl Floors can be Difficult to Remove


Depending on the method of installation for the vinyl floors, removal can be labor intensive. Fortunately, you can call us to assist in any repairs, or floor removal and installation needs. We will take the stress of labor intensive work off your hands and guarantee a quality job.

Caring for LVP Flooring


Vinyl and LVP floors are durable and will last for years to come. However, after many years of wear vinyl flooring can develop a buildup of dirt and grime leaving the surface with a dull appearance. Fortunately, there is a good solution for this problem, and we at Footprints Floors are here to help.

The experts at Footprints Floors can have your vinyl floor looking brand new in no time. We will buff and polish your floor or complete a full stripping and restoration depending on the severity of damage to your vinyl flooring.

Myths and Misconceptions:
Vinyl Flooring Durability

Modern vinyl flooring has evolved over the past few years into a diverse array of styles and finishes that can fit into the style and aesthetic of most homes. It’s also a great affordable and long-lasting choice. (LINK to Vinyl Flooring Durability cluster topic) With many homeowners choosing to remodel an older home or make improvements to their current estate, vinyl flooring can be an excellent choice to update the design of a room. Footprints Floors has trained staff to make vinyl plank flooring installation a smooth process for homeowners in Chicago.

Will the top image fade?

No, the top image will not fade. The image embossed on the vinyl is sealed with a highly durable, clear coat to ensure the flooring looks beautiful for years.

Vinyl flooring is toxic

Many worry that these floors may be toxic. It is true that older vinyl floors were made with more questionable materials. However, today the industry is required to follow strict guidelines set by the EPA to ensure vinyl products are safe for inside the home.

Vinyl and laminate are the same

These two floor types may appear to be similar. In fact, they are both composed of entirely different materials. These different materials produce different characteristics in the flooring. A vinyl floor will be both more flexible and more water resistant than that of a laminate floor.

What Our Customers Say

Quick, communicative, and amazing job! Truly know their stuff and treat you like their most important customer.
Exal Iraheta 04/19/24 — google
Before speaking to Kyle at Footprints I thought it was important for me to speak directly with a subcontractor who would personally be performing the floor installation themselves. In doing so it wasn’t clear that these other contractors really heard or would ultimately act on what I was saying, or whether they really cared, often hearing the common refrain “no problem.” Kyle was very effective at listening to and addressing my concerns throughout the entire process and then successfully passing the information and my concerns on to Rudy and Riamundo who followed through on those details during the installation. Effective communication, listening, understanding and follow through are paramount qualities, abilities and skills to possess and employ in order to translate the many details of the job into a quality, thorough execution of the installation. These qualities are not always easily found. I was out of town for much of the process and had to handle details remotely, by phone and text, making these qualities all the more important to my circumstance. Kyle and Footprints was extremely responsive to my phone calls, texts, concerns and needs and they made themselves available in a very validating, accommodating and prompt manner, directly addressing my concerns with excellent listening, communication and follow through skills that turned my vision into a fabulous result. Kyle will answer all of your questions; respond promptly, clearly, honestly, and concisely. He listens and follows through on the detailed execution. He will allow you to be as involved in the process as much as you care to be or take on matters independently. He stands behind his work and will not disappear. At least that was my positive experience. There exists the art and skill and craftsmanship of a Quality Installation as much as there exists the art and skill and relationship skills of Quality Customer Service. Kyle Battles and Footprints possess both. Many Thumbs Up !!!
K Skeer 04/10/24 — google
We recently had our hardwood floors refinished and Kyle and his team did a WONDERFUL job! They were responsive, professional, clean, fair on pricing, and efficient. After an awful experience with a previous flooring company, Footprints Floors was able to come in and restore our floors. Highly recommend!
Jennifer Oyola 04/5/24 — google
We couldn't be happier with the hardwood flooring refinishing job completed by Footprints Floors Chicago! From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism, courtesy, and exceptional skill. Our tired floors were transformed into stunning works of art, exceeding our expectations in every way. The attention to detail was remarkable, and the quality of work was outstanding. Throughout the process, communication with the owner Kyle was seamless; he promptly addressed all our questions and concerns. To top it off, Kyle's team completed the job a day earlier than expected! Highly recommend Footprints Floors Chicago for anyone seeking top-notch hardwood flooring services!
Sean Wang 03/13/24 — google
I worked with Footprints to refinish hardwood floors in my condo. Kyle's team did great work. They moved fast, and the results were exactly what I hoped for. Can't recommend them enough.
Daniel Garrett 03/5/24 — google
Great job and Kyle was able to meet my time schedule.
Jason Cummins 03/4/24 — google
Kyle and team did incredible work! Our whole process from quote to dry beautiful floors was about a week, they made my hardwood maple shine again and made the whole process easy and smooth. I will be recommending them to anyone in my network who needs their floors redone going forward. Thanks so much guys!! Photos show the transformation from old to new in the same area of floor :)
sydney j 02/24/24 — google
Kyle and the team at Footprints Floors were truly wonderful to work with. From the quote to install, service was above and beyond. I had braced for a multi-day project, but to my delight the bulk of the work was completed in a single day. Our basement playroom has now been converted into a gym with a functional rubber floor, and we couldn't be happier with the result!
Hillary Gurber 02/20/24 — google
Excellent company. Beautiful work laying a tile floor in our kitchen in between other remodeling work being done. Very accommodating on scheduling. Efficient and very clean. Estimate = Final price. Highly recommend!
Jean Marie Koon 02/16/24 — google
Kyle and his crew committed to the job on a fairly tight schedule and took care of everything in a first-rate manner. The work is beautiful, and the experience was as low-stress as you could want. They even had a terrific playlist!
Robert Koon 01/30/24 — google
Excellent service from estimate through to project finish. We were communicated with the whole way, we had one or two odd requests that were accommodated with ease, and the end result looks great!
Erik Shell 01/13/24 — google
kyle did an awesome job from start to finish. his team did my floors while i was on vacation and out of the house. they moved my furniture and put it back where it was (added cost but worth it). he kept me updated through the whole process and my floors and stairs look amazing!! and the cost was very reasonable. highly recommend.
Tofer Mishler 01/11/24 — google
Footprints Floors Chicago (FFC) did an excellent job refinishing a bedroom, stair treads and landings. FFC also replaced damaged floor boards in our 1920s era house and expertly matched the existing pine floor boards. We were greatly appreciative of how easy it was to work with FFC as they scheduled our job around the scheduling needs of our family. FFC were timely, efficient and did a great job with minimizing the dust from a very messy job. We will call on FFC when we are ready to tackle our next flooring related project effort.
Paul Proto 01/9/24 — google
Just worked with Kyle on flooring for our basement. Common sense pricing, very professional, flexible and responsive communicator, and high quality work.
Daniel Orbach 12/8/23 — google
Communicative, responsible and efficient. We had a great experience (we put luxury tile that looks like hardwood installed in our basement) and highly recommend.
Sandra Jaggi 12/4/23 — google
Kyle at Footprints has done work for me twice in two different homes. His work is fast and excellent. He is wonderful at communicating and responding and if I ever need more flooring I can’t imagine hiring anyone else.
Chris Burgess 11/30/23 — google
Excellent work. Tomasz was able to come in and fix all of the tile which was removed after a sump pump installation. I heartily recommend!
DictatorHat 11/30/23 — google
Very good service. Fast and friendly. Workers were clean and professional. Highly recommend
Unemployed Bartender 11/18/23 — google
Kyle was so easy to work with and we couldn’t be more satisfied with our new kitchen hardwood floor. He and his crew were able to get the demo and installation completed while we were out of town for a long wedding weekend. Kyle was in contact with us every step of the way, texting photos to ensure everything was meeting our expectations. We came home to a gorgeous new finished floor. We would highly recommend Kyle and Footprint Floors!
Carla Weil 11/16/23 — google
Working with Kyle and David and crew was amazing. They were very responsive, communicative, reliable and did a fantastic job! The floors look amazing, I would highly recommend!
