How to Find Professional Flooring Installers

July 8, 2024

If you're considering a DIY flooring project, think again. Though many homeowners believe DIY flooring can save money, improper installation can end up costing more overall.

How to Find Professional Flooring Installers

For a well-finished job, flooring installation requires heavy machinery and precise knowledge. If you underestimate your material needs or don't prepare subflooring properly, your project could end in disaster. For beautiful floors, it's best to rely on the expertise of professional floor installers. If you're wondering how to find professional flooring installers in Atlanta, GA, how can you be sure you're getting quality work at a fair price?

Research Local Providers

The best way to start is by researching local flooring installers. A big corporate provider like Home Depot is typically not a good choice for floor installation since you'll likely receive lower-quality work at a higher price point, as many large corporations are more interested in profit than providing quality service. To find a floor installer that provides reputable work at fair pricing, it's best to go the small, local business route. Ask your neighbors for recommendations or search online for top-rated flooring installers in your area.

Review Online Reputation

When you've narrowed it down to three of four flooring installers, now is the time to dive deeper. Research the companies on Google and other online business rating systems. See what customers are saying about the work they provide—is it quality? Are prices fair?

Another good place to look is social media. Is the business active on Facebook, Instagram, and other platforms? Do they interact with their customers, answer questions, and provide helpful resources? A business invested in its clients creates a welcoming online community.

What to Look for in a Professional Flooring Installer
  • Low Prices: Our unique business model allows us to offer some of the lowest prices in the industry. You simply purchase flooring materials from your preferred provider, and we take care of the installation. We pass the savings directly on to you, our customer, by eliminating material and inventory costs.
  • Trust & Communication: A flooring project is a big deal, and you don't want to let just any contractor into your home. That's why it's important to look at the reviews of flooring installers to see who promises top-quality services, great communication, and trustworthy contractors. Take a look at what our customers are saying about us, and you will quickly see why we are one of the top flooring companies. We offer installation, repair, and restoration for wood flooring and various other materials.
  • Quality Service: Footprints Floors is here to help you with your flooring initial design, offer suggestions on materials, and complete new installation. Once you have purchased your materials, our team will take over. We remove old floors, replace subflooring if necessary, prepare for and install new flooring, apply a finish, reposition or reinstall baseboards, and clean up afterward. You will be wowed by the incredible transformation our team creates inside your home. We are experts in installing wood, tile, stone, luxury plank vinyl, laminate, and more.
  • Customer Care: Footprints Floors is your trusted local professional. With over a decade in the flooring industry, we provide quality floor installation and repair services. While flooring is our first state of business, customer service is a close second and we always ensure that you have the best possible experience when you schedule any type of flooring service with Footprints Floors.

Kevin Moore

East Atlanta & Duluth Owner

I spent most of my professional career as an I.T. Professional Services Program Manager. I have worked for many great companies such as IBM, Cisco, The Home Depot, Synamedia and BetterCloud to name a few. After my wife was brave enough to make a career change from Corporate Accounting to an AMI Certified Montessori Teacher (and loves it!), I decided that it was time for me to make a change as well. I have always been an active DIY'r and HGTV junkie and felt that I missed my true calling for construction management. After searching for several years, I decided to make a career change and opened my Footprints Floors franchise in 2021. I really enjoy helping my customers complete their projects to improve on their most important asset; their home. I believe that all customers deserve an honest, reputable and fair contractor that will aspire to deliver 5 star results. Those are the principles that guide me daily.

I have a wonderful wife, 2 young adult children, 2 cats, a sassy Husky and have resided in the Atlanta Metro area for the past 18 years. I am an avid runner and also love to roller skate, hike, kayak and play in the dirt.
