How to Choose a Flooring Company

When installing wood, rubber or PVC flooring, projects that require quality products and a professional team, we want to help you make sure you're taking steps to maximize the value of your investment.

Perhaps you are hesitant to choose a flooring company, so how do you choose the best company for your needs? We at LANGNING SPORTS have been in the business for many years and we know that our customers are looking for something when it comes to flooring installation. From quality, price, reputation and customer service, to terms and conditions that cover the transaction and support team, there are many factors that really make a flooring company the best choice.

First, let's talk about quality and price; both of which we know are important factors in choosing a flooring installer and service provider. While choosing a flooring company is an important economic decision in the short term, it is also an important decision for the longevity of the facility where it is installed. Research the quality of the materials the company sells and installs. Ask your representative for references you can ask for, "What is the quality of this company's installation?" Keep in mind that improperly installed flooring, while initially appearing to be a job well done, can become a long-term cost issue.

Find out from the company if they have invested in the latest tools and equipment. And, how do they guarantee product standards? As a distributor, LANGNING SPORTS can ensure product quality and, in turn, cost savings for the end user.

Next, research the reputation and customer service of the company you are considering hiring. Review these references and ask questions about the details of the company's service. How efficiently does the team work and are products installed correctly? How does the company handle concerns or complaints? Also consider looking for reviews about the company online. Can you find positive reviews, or do you see negative ones?

Understand the terms and conditions that cover the deal you are about to start. Before you sign, understand the product warranty, the terms of the contract, and make sure the product you receive is what you expect.

Another important aspect of hiring a flooring company is the team behind it, including sales and installation. Do you have a salesperson assigned specifically to your customers who is available and open to answer your questions? Are the company's installers certified and professionally trained?

Another tip: Make sure the installer is an employee and not a subcontractor. Of course, to protect you and your company, make sure the flooring company is also insured and bonded. If so, they will usually offer a warranty and extended services.

These are just a few things to keep in mind when you are researching flooring companies. Of course, we want you to include LANGNING SPORTS in your selection, but no matter who you choose, remember that the company you call should be ready and willing to answer your questions. That way, you will have a better chance of getting the most out of your investment today and for years to come.
