Hiring a floor installation contractor

When hiring a flooring contractor for your home or office, make sure they have experience with the particular kind of flooring you are installing. For example, tile installers may not do hardwood. Concrete installers may not do resin coating. Do your research to make sure you're getting the best flooring contractor for your project. You can check out reviews online or ask for recommendations from friends or family. Finally, be sure to get a written estimate from your flooring contractor before work begins. And never pay for the entire job upfront.

Why it may be cheaper to hire a floor installer

When deciding between installing a floor yourself or calling a flooring installer, consider  the following:

  • The flooring material you've chosen - some materials are easier to install than others
  • The size of the room or area you're flooring
  • Your own DIY skills and experience level
  • The tools and equipment you have available
  • The time you have to complete the project
  • Your budget for the project



If you're not confident in your ability to install the flooring material you've chosen, it's  best to leave it to the professionals. Hiring a flooring installer can save you time, money  and hassle in the long run.
