Hiring the wrong commercial flooring contractor in New York is expensive twice — once when you pay them, and again when you pay someone to fix it. Before you sign anything, ask these questions.
7 questions to ask any commercial flooring contractor
- Are you licensed and insured in New York? Ask for proof, not a promise.
- Can I see recent local references? Real New York City jobs, not stock photos.
- Is the quote flat-rate and in writing? Hourly "estimates" have a way of growing.
- Who does the actual work? In-house crews are more accountable than day labor.
- What's the timeline? A clear start and finish protects you.
- Do you pull permits? For anything structural or code-related, the answer should be yes.
- What warranty do you stand behind? Good contractors back their work.
Red flags to walk away from
Cash-only demands, no written contract, pressure to decide today, or a price that seems too good to be true — those are all reasons to keep looking.
