Footprints Floors Tampa Brian Shaffer Owner - Central Florida, Tampa

Brian Shaffer

Owner - Central Florida, Tampa

Brian Shaffer is a passionate entrepreneur whose career has been defined by leadership, service, and a commitment to helping others succeed. Born in West Palm Beach, Florida, to a family of medical professionals, Brian quickly realized that his talents lay outside the hospital setting. Drawn instead to education, leadership, and eventually business ownership, he built a well-rounded foundation that now fuels his success in the home services industry.

After earning both a bachelor’s and master’s degree from the University of Florida, Brian began his professional journey as an English teacher. Over an 11-year teaching career, he taught five different grade levels and built a reputation for excellence in the classroom. In 2016, he transitioned into a district-level administrative role in the nation’s seventh-largest school district, where he spent six years leading teams of teachers and administrators through successful implementation of large-scale educational programs.

While thriving in education, Brian was also drawn to the world of small business. His entrepreneurial path began with real estate and continued to grow with the launch of The Cabinet Painting Company in 2021. Through this venture, Brian helped homeowners refresh their kitchens and bathrooms without the cost of full renovations. By 2022, the company’s success allowed him to step away from education and devote himself fully to business ownership. Under his leadership, The Cabinet Painting Company quickly earned a reputation for high-quality work, exceptional service, and strong customer relationships—opening the door to expanded opportunities in the home remodeling space.

Wanting to expand and offer his customers additional services, Brian became the owner of Footprints Floors of Tampa and Central Florida, and began offering floor refinishing and installations, from hardwood, tile, LVP and Laminate, kitchen backsplashes and shower remodels. This shift marked an exciting new chapter in his commitment to serving homeowners and enhancing the long-term beauty and value of their homes. With the heart of a teacher, the mindset of a leader, and the drive of an entrepreneur, Brian is dedicated to elevating the Footprints Floors experience through integrity, craftsmanship, and outstanding service.

Outside of work, Brian’s greatest joy comes from spending time with his family. He and his wife, Leah, enjoy life in Florida with their three children: Emmett (12), EJ (10), and Eden (7). Whether exploring new places, cheering on their kids at activities, or simply enjoying time together at home, family remains the center of Brian’s world.

FAQs

Footprints Floors specializes in expert flooring installation, no matter the material. Our skilled contractors have ample experience with hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile, engineered wood, and more.

You can trust us with any flooring project, big or small. Just let us know your home improvement vision, and we’re here to deliver impeccable workmanship every time.

The best flooring for your home will depend on the size of the space, your lifestyle needs, and your personal style preferences. High-traffic areas like bathrooms and kitchens may benefit from water-resistant options like vinyl or tile, while bedrooms might be more comfortable with carpet.

The function of the room is also very important. Families with pets or children may prioritize a material with easy upkeep, maintenance, and stain resistance. We are happy to guide homeowners through these decisions by assessing the space and recommending flooring solutions.

Flooring installation timelines vary based on the size of your project, the type of flooring, and the condition of the subfloor. Generally, smaller rooms can be completed within a day or two, while larger or more complex projects, such as multi-room installations or custom patterns, may take up to a week.

Preparation work, like removing old flooring and repairing the subfloor, can add time to the project. When you sign onto a project with us, we provide clear timelines during the initial consultation so you know what to expect.

Flooring installation with Footprints Floors starts with a complimentary in-home consultation and free estimate. After we help you decide the best flooring type for your space, you’ll find and purchase the necessary amount of material.

We begin the project by prepping the installation space, removing existing flooring, and cleaning the subfloor thoroughly. Any necessary repairs or leveling will be completed to create a stable foundation.

The flooring will then be installed along with any baseboards, trim, or sealants. When our install team is finished, they will clean up, leaving your home as it was before the project began.

Choosing the right flooring contractor for your project will save you time, money, and stress. Look for contractors with a strong local reputation, verified licenses, and insurance coverage. Reviewing examples of past work and customer testimonials is a great way to check for reliability.

Be clear about your budget and timeline, and choose contractors like Footprints Floors who communicate openly and provide free estimates before starting the job.

Yes, all contractors working on our team are fully licensed and insured for flooring installation. They undergo specialized training and are committed to professionalism.
