Sound familiar?
The stuff nobody tells you about running a flooring installation business.
Surprises under the old floor
Rotten subfloor, uneven slab, mystery padding — every tear-out hides something the original quote didn’t cover.
‘It doesn’t look right’ arguments
Gaps, sheen, squeaks, debris left behind. Without photos and a checklist, every complaint is your word against theirs.
Here’s the fix
Built around how flooring installers actually work.
Square-foot pricing ready to tap
Hardwood, LVP, tile, laminate and carpet with tear-out, leveling and trim as line items — measured, priced and texted before you leave the driveway.
Tear-out surprises handled in writing
Subfloor repair and leveling are on the quote and the checklist, so a rotten patch is a change order, not an argument.
Deposits before you pull up a board
Customers accept and pay a deposit by card from the proposal link, so materials are covered before day one.
Proof at both ends
Moisture readings, before photos, after photos and a walkthrough sign-off — the finish question answers itself.
