Flooring Installation in Tacoma, WA
When it comes to transforming the look and feel of a home, flooring is one of the most impactful upgrades. Mega General Construction offers professional tile, wood, and concrete flooring installation services across Tacoma, WA. Our team works with homeowners to replace worn-out floors, install new materials, and adapt flooring systems to the unique conditions of the Pacific Northwest climate.
Whether it’s hardwood for living rooms, tile for kitchens and bathrooms, or polished concrete for modern interiors, we approach each flooring project with technical precision and an understanding of long-term performance.
Tile Flooring Installation for Wet Zones and High-Traffic Areas
Tile is a common flooring choice for Tacoma homeowners due to its durability and water resistance. Kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and entryways all benefit from the functional qualities and design versatility of tile.
Ceramic and Porcelain Tile Options
Ceramic and porcelain tiles offer a wide range of sizes, textures, and finishes. Whether you’re aiming for a clean, minimalist look or a detailed mosaic design, our team ensures that each tile is aligned, leveled, and securely set for long-term use.
Grout Sealing and Waterproofing
To ensure longevity, we seal all grout lines and incorporate moisture barriers beneath the surface in wet areas. This prevents water intrusion that could damage subflooring or lead to mold growth—especially important in Tacoma’s damp climate.
Heated Tile Floor Systems
For homeowners looking to add comfort, radiant heating can be installed beneath tile floors. These systems are especially popular in bathrooms and are compatible with most types of ceramic or porcelain flooring.
Hardwood and Engineered Wood Floor Installation
Wood floors bring warmth and elegance to Tacoma homes. We install both solid hardwood and engineered wood options depending on your preference, subfloor type, and moisture conditions in the home.
Solid Wood for Traditional Homes
Homes in North Tacoma and older neighborhoods often feature original hardwood that may be restored or replaced. We install oak, maple, hickory, and other species to match existing flooring or create an updated look that complements period architecture.
Engineered Wood for Stability
Engineered wood flooring is better suited for Tacoma homes with variable humidity or homes built over concrete slabs. These planks are more resistant to expansion and contraction and can be installed as floating or glue-down systems.
Floor Sanding and Refinishing
For properties with worn wood flooring, our team offers sanding and refinishing services to remove surface damage and restore the original appearance. This can often be a more cost-effective solution than full replacement.
Concrete Flooring for Modern and Industrial Spaces
Polished and sealed concrete floors are gaining popularity in Tacoma due to their durability, ease of maintenance, and clean, modern appearance. From garages to open-concept living areas, concrete flooring is a practical solution with strong design appeal.
Surface Preparation and Grinding
We begin each concrete flooring job by preparing the surface—grinding it smooth and leveling it to eliminate imperfections. This ensures that any stains, coatings, or sealants applied later will adhere properly and deliver lasting results.
Stained and Sealed Finishes
Stained concrete provides a custom look that ranges from subtle earth tones to bold, decorative finishes. Once stained, we apply a sealant that protects the surface from moisture, dirt, and abrasion.
Garage and Utility Floor Coatings
Tacoma homeowners frequently request epoxy coatings or industrial sealants for garages, basements, and utility spaces. These finishes increase slip resistance, make cleaning easier, and extend the life of the concrete surface.
Adapting Flooring to Tacoma’s Climate and Housing Styles
Flooring installation in Tacoma requires a smart approach to material selection and installation technique. Damp conditions, older homes with uneven subfloors, and seasonal moisture changes all play a role in how a floor performs.
Subfloor Evaluation and Preparation
Before installing any flooring, we evaluate the subfloor to address issues like leveling, moisture intrusion, or prior damage. We frequently work in Tacoma homes that have sloped, squeaky, or irregular floors—challenges that require thoughtful planning and material adaptation.
Material Selection for Local Conditions
Some flooring options fare better in Tacoma’s wet and temperate environment. For example, engineered wood performs better than solid wood in homes with poor ventilation. Porcelain tile stands up well to entryway moisture and heavy foot traffic. Concrete offers a durable, mold-resistant option for basements and lower levels.
