If I'm doing it myself I'm not going to pull the floor until I'm ready to install it. Renos always take longer than you think, and then you're living on plywood for too long. I also can't trust myself to keep paint off the floors, so I'm not putting in the nice floor until I'm done painting. Also, installing engineered hardwood flooring should have no impact on your paint job. There's no reason to scratch up your walls doing that.
