Commercial flooring projects cost hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. Specifications exist. Manufacturer requirements exist. But compliance is assumed, not verified.
When flooring fails — and it does — there's no proof of what happened during installation. Manufacturers deny warranty claims. Installers point fingers. Owners pay to rip it out and start over.
CertiFloor changes that.
What We Do
Flooring Commissioning is an independent verification process from specification through turnover. It verifies and documents compliance with flooring manufacturer requirements and project specifications — when temporary conditions exist that can't be reconstructed later. This produces a neutral evidentiary record for accountability and warranty enforcement.
We verify compliance and document everything. We don't test. We don't install. We don't approve work. We don't direct contractors.
The commissioning agent verifies compliance with the contractor's chosen means and methods against manufacturer requirements and project specifications. The agent does not prescribe, direct, or approve installation methods.
Testing is the contractor's responsibility. We confirm it was done right.
