Flooring in Upper Mission
View homes and walkouts from the 90s and 2000s, ready for their second floor.
The homes in Upper Mission
Most of Upper Mission was built from the 1990s through the 2000s: two-storeys and walkout ranchers on view lots, with big open main floors and finished lower levels. The original carpet and builder laminate are reaching the end of their life across the neighbourhood, and owners are moving to wide-plank hardwood or vinyl upstairs and waterproof floors in the walkouts.
Upper Mission is about twenty minutes from the showroom. Walkout basements and multi-level layouts are the norm up here, so we plan deliveries and staging for stairs and slopes, and we bring the samples to the house because the light on these lots changes the colour of everything.
