1) How does the Technical Visit work and what’s included?

It’s a professional on-site assessment. A certified CNG Contracting technician inspects the work area, takes measurements and photos, checks access, safety, and any constraints (power, water, ventilation), and discusses your goals, style, and finishes. You’ll receive a detailed proposal with a clearly defined scope, timeline, and material options. Even if you choose not to proceed, you keep the written findings and recommendations.

2) How quickly will my booking be confirmed and when can you come?

We typically confirm within 2 business hours by email or phone with the earliest available time window. For urgent issues, we try to offer same day response when scheduling and scope allow. Larger jobs may require material lead times if so, we coordinate the earliest visit that avoids delays once on site.

3) How do you price projects and what does “fixed price” mean?

After the assessment we define a clear scope of work (tasks, inclusions, timeline, and material assumptions). Your quote reflects that scope as a fixed price it won’t change unless you approve a scope change or we uncover a hidden condition that wasn’t visible during inspection (e.g., concealed rot). Any change is documented with photos and options before proceeding.

4) What cleanliness and protection standards do you follow?

We protect floors and high-traffic areas, isolate dust where needed, and remove debris at the end of the day. We aim to minimize disruption to your routine. At handover, we complete a quality checklist and, when appropriate, share before-and-after photos for your records.

5) Are materials included, or do I need to purchase them?

For services labeled “materials included”, standard consumables and parts are covered. For custom work (e.g., built-ins), we can price both CNG-supplied materials and client-supplied materials. We’ll specify makes, quantities, and compatibility to ensure durability and code compliance.

6) Can I reschedule or cancel my appointment?

Yes. Rescheduling with at least 48 hours’ notice is free. Short-notice cancellations may incur a coordination fee. If weather or health/safety concerns arise, we prioritize safety and offer the closest new slot available.

7) What warranty do you provide and how is after-service handled?

We provide a 2-year workmanship warranty. If something isn’t right, we’ll diagnose and correct it promptly. For support, email handyman-pro@cngcontracting.comor call (647) 669-7346; we’ll schedule a follow-up, document findings, and complete the corrective work.

8) Do you serve commercial properties or work with property managers?

Yes. We offer maintenance plans, priority response, standardized task catalogs, and consolidated invoicing for offices, retail, and multi-unit buildings. Ask about SLAs and reporting if you manage multiple locations.

9) Can you advise on accessibility upgrades for seniors or people with reduced mobility?

Absolutely. We design and install grab bars, threshold ramps, wider doorways, anti-slip flooring, walk-in shower rails, and more. We assess reach, transfer zones, and path-of-travel to reduce fall risk and increase independence. We’ll explain pros/cons, maintenance, and lifespan of each option.

10) Which areas do you cover and how do you handle travel outside the GTA core?

We cover Toronto (all boroughs), Mississauga, Brampton, Hamilton, Oakville, Burlington, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Oshawa, Milton, Guelph, Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo, London, Barrie, St. Catharines / Niagara and more. Our system assigns the nearest crew and accounts for travel to meet the agreed time window.

Subfloor Leveling & Preparation Toronto & GTA

The Flooring You Want for Your Toronto & GTA Home Starts Underneath It

New flooring is one of the most visible and impactful updates a Toronto & GTA home can have — but it’s also one of the most dependent on what’s underneath it. Tile over a bouncy subfloor cracks. Hardwood over a damp subfloor buckles. Laminate over an uneven surface develops squeaks, gaps, and joint separation within the first year. In Toronto & GTA homes, subfloor problems are extremely common — and almost always discoverable before the new flooring goes down, when the cost of addressing them is a fraction of what it costs to tear up a finished floor to fix them after the fact.

At CNG Contracting, subfloor leveling and preparation in Toronto & GTA is how we ensure every flooring installation we do performs the way it’s supposed to. We assess the existing subfloor, identify what needs to be addressed — level, moisture, structural integrity — and prepare the surface properly before any finish material goes down.

What Proper Subfloor Preparation Involves in Toronto & GTA Homes

Level Assessment: We check the entire subfloor for high and low spots using proper leveling tools. Industry standard for most flooring materials in Toronto & GTA is no more than 3mm variation over 1.8 metres — deviations beyond this need to be addressed.

Self-Leveling Compound: Low spots and uneven areas are filled with professional-grade self-leveling compound that cures hard and flat — not flexible caulk or filler that compresses under load.

High Spot Reduction: Localized high spots are ground or planed flat — they can’t be leveled over without creating a different problem.

Moisture Testing: In Toronto & GTA basements and concrete subfloors, moisture testing before any flooring installation is non-negotiable. High moisture readings mean the material and adhesive selection needs to change.

Structural Issues: Squeaking, bouncy, or structurally compromised subfloor panels in Toronto & GTA homes are identified and addressed — not covered over.

When Toronto & GTA Homeowners Need Subfloor Preparation

Before any tile installation — tile is the least forgiving flooring for subfloor imperfections

Before hardwood or engineered flooring over concrete in Toronto & GTA basements

Older Toronto & GTA homes where subfloor settlement has created significant level variation

Post-renovation subfloors where multiple tradespeople have left uneven patches

Any situation where squeaking, bouncing, or deflection is present before new flooring

A properly prepared subfloor in your Toronto & GTA home is invisible when it’s done — but every flooring installer and homeowner who’s skipped it knows exactly what it costs to fix later. Book your assessment today.

Frequently Asked — Subfloor Preparation in Toronto & GTA

How uneven is too uneven for new flooring in Toronto & GTA without leveling?

The standard for most finish flooring materials is 3mm over 1.8 metres. Tile is more demanding — often 3mm over 3 metres. We measure your Toronto & GTA subfloor and tell you exactly what needs addressing for your specific intended flooring material.

Does concrete subfloor always need moisture testing in Toronto & GTA?

Yes — always, before any wood-based or glue-down flooring over concrete. Toronto & GTA basements and slabs can have elevated moisture that isn’t visible on the surface but destroys adhesive bonds and causes wood-based flooring to fail. Testing takes minutes and changes the entire installation plan when results are high.

How do I book subfloor preparation in Toronto & GTA?

Book online in under two minutes. Our Toronto & GTA team contacts you directly to confirm scope and schedule.

Subfloor preparation reports for Toronto & GTA homes include a written summary of what was found and what was done — useful documentation for renovation permit records and for conveying to subsequent flooring contractors the state of the subfloor they’ll be working over.

Excellent work, friendly staff, respectful. If you want a job done right at a fair price, this is the company to call!😇

Long story short: great job 👍 So, my bathroom mirror/cabinet door has been sagging on one side more and more ever since I moved in years ago. One past repair job seemed to just be delaying the inevitable. Samuel showed up on time, showed me why those hinges weren't working (you can see weird extra screws in the “before” pic), added a securing plate to compensate for the mount not being strong enough on its own, and even filled in an unrelated gap in the bathroom caulking I hadn't noticed. Works perfectly now. Highly recommended!

I needed the PVC window sill ledge on my condo repaired. After trying multiple different contractors, nobody was willing to take on the job, but CNG was able to diagnose the issue and work required same day that I called and scheduled a technician (Samuel) who came promptly, took measurements, gave me multiple good options for repairs without being pushy or upselling and completed the work same day. Excellent service and great staff. Highly recommend for any home repair or renovation needs

I’ve worked with CNG Contracting on several commercial inspections, and they’ve been outstanding from start to finish.
The entire experience was professional, organized, and very educational. The inspection reports were clear, detailed, and easy to follow — not just technical data, but practical information that actually helps you make confident decisions.

Claudio arrived right on time, and was extremely knowledgeable, he took the time to explain every part of the process. After the inspection, he personally walked me through all the photos and videos, breaking down each finding so I could fully understand what I was looking at. That extra step made a big difference.

The detailed report I received afterward became more than just paperwork — it turned into a valuable guide I can use as a reference for my commercial project.
It gave me full clarity on what to expect and how to plan each stage, from the first step to the last.

I truly appreciate the transparency, care, and expertise that CNG Contracting brings to their work.
It’s rare to find a company that combines professionalism with genuine customer care and integrity like this.

I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a thorough, honest, and reliable inspection or construction service

We hired CNG Contracting for a full home and basement renovation of our bungalow, which included disability-friendly access, new electrical throughout the house, new water lines from the city to the house, and new sewage lines to the city main connections. The project started on January 1st and was completed on March 20th, right on schedule.
From the initial planning and design to the final inspection and handover, Claudio and his team were professional, responsive, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand our needs and answered every question clearly. Most importantly, he was patient and helped complete the details to claim the appropriate disability rebates and refunds.
We know that no renovation is ever perfect, but what truly sets CNG Contracting apart is how quickly and effectively they handled every challenge that came up. Every concern was addressed immediately and with care.
Our new basement (with wet bar and rental-ready rough-ins) and main floor kitchen, staircase, and added powder room turned out beautifully and exactly where we needed them, as we envisioned.
Even after completion, when minor attention was needed, Claudio personally followed up right away and ensured everything was taken care of with his team.
We confidently give CNG Contracting 5 stars and recommend them to anyone looking for a serious, dependable contractor who stands behind their work and truly protects your investment.
