You've Already Taken the First Step

If you are set on starting a flooring business, you’ve likely already done your research. That, or the trusted advice of a friend, is what has brought you to Footprints Floors. Fortunately, if you’ve found us, more than half of the work is done! The longest process of starting a franchise is finding the right company to invest in. As Footprints Floors is leading the flooring franchise industry in everything from profitability to flexibility, you’ve found the winning company. It is not uncommon for entrepreneurs to spend 2-3 weeks searching for their preferred franchise company. All of our Franchise Owners have said they knew that when they found Footprints Floors, they had found their future.

So, if you’re ready for starting a flooring business with Footprints Floors, you may be wondering just how long it will take to get your business up and running. We understand the impatience – it’s hard to contain your excitement when presented with a profitable business plan. That’s why we’ve worked hard to make the startup process as efficient as possible. Unlike some other flooring franchise that can take months to open, Footprints Floors Franchise Owners can expect to be in business with 4-6 weeks after signing the franchise agreement.
