Undercuts
Seamless Undercut Flooring Services in Dallas
At All Flooring Install, we handle all the details, including undercutting around stairs, fireplaces, baseboards, and more. Whether you’re installing new hardwood or upgrading a single room, we ensure everything fits as it should.
We don’t treat undercutting as an afterthought. It’s a critical part of the job that affects how your entire floor looks and performs. Our team uses the right tools, takes precise measurements, and works carefully around architectural features to make sure your flooring sits clean, secure, and flush against every surface. The result is a smooth, high-end finish that retains its quality over time.
Why Undercutting Matters
When new flooring meets fixed features like door frames or stonework, the edges need to be trimmed. This creates a clean, professional look and allows your flooring to expand and contract without damage. Without undercutting, floors can look off and may not last as long.
That’s why it’s part of every flooring job we take on. Our installers use specialty tools to cut just enough for the flooring to slide underneath trim or overhangs. The result is a seamless fit and a long-lasting finish.
What Types of Flooring Need Undercutting?
Undercutting isn’t optional for most flooring types. If you’re installing hardwood, laminate, or tile, the edges need to be trimmed so the material fits flush against fixed surfaces like door casings or fireplace surrounds. Vinyl plank and engineered wood may also need undercutting depending on the layout.
Skipping this step leads to visible gaps, uneven edges, and long-term damage. We make sure each material is handled properly from the start.
We Make Tricky Cuts Look Easy
Fireplaces. Staircases. Pillars. Tight corners. These are the areas that separate a DIY job from professional work. Our team knows how to handle them all. We work with every type of flooring material and know how to get the results your home deserves.

Common Flooring Mistakes We Fix

- Damage to door casings from the wrong saw or angle
