Choosing a surface begins with the room: who uses it, how often it is cleaned, what rolls or moves across it, and whether the space must stay open during construction. A school corridor, patient care room, multifamily unit, and office do not ask the same things of a floor. We bring the facility team and custodial staff into the discussion so care needs and operating realities are reflected in the product decision.
Preparation is part of that decision. We assess the substrate, remove existing coverings when included in the scope, grind or shot blast concrete, repair cracks and joints, and test for moisture vapor. When site readings or manufacturer limits call for it, we recommend moisture mitigation before installation. This in-house preparation helps surface risks early and gives the selected flooring a suitable base.
Installation details matter as much as the product label: adhesive, seam position, heat welding, coved edges, transition heights, movement joints, and acclimation all depend on the product and project. We coordinate documentation, submittals, deliveries, and phasing with the project team. For publicly funded work, our union crews support prevailing wage, DIR registration, and certified payroll requirements.
Every completed installation includes product-specific care guidance for the custodial or facility team. Maintenance is discussed before selection, then handed over with relevant product information at closeout. That gives the people caring for the building practical instructions for daily cleaning, spill response, and keeping the floor performing as specified.
