5 Florida-licensed flooring subcontractors serve Fort Lauderdale (Broward County). Browse listings below, or create a free* GC account to see phone and email and invite a sub to bid on your RFQ.
Most of these flooring subcontractors are based in Boca Raton (1), Margate (1), and Pompano Beach (1) — plus 2 more across the metro.
Flooring subcontractors install the finish floor systems on a project — resilient (LVT, sheet vinyl, rubber), carpet and carpet tile, ceramic and stone tile, hardwood, polished concrete, epoxy systems, plus transitions and base. On commercial jobs they price from the room finish schedule and Division 09 spec, follow paint and millwork into the building, and coordinate moisture testing of the slab and substrate prep ahead of installation.

When a GC sends a flooring RFQ, they want a quote against the room finish schedule, the Division 09 flooring spec, and the floor pattern drawings if applicable. Bids are broken out by square foot per material type with linear-foot pricing for base and transitions. GCs want the bid to name the manufacturer and product priced, the adhesive system, the warranty, and what's excluded — slab moisture mitigation, self-leveling underlayment beyond a stated thickness, demolition of existing flooring, furniture moves. Substrate condition assumptions belong in the bid.
Flooring contracting in Florida falls under the specialty contractor classification regulated by the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) under the DBPR. A specialty contractor's license covers the scope of work listed under that classification — installation of finish floor systems and their associated substrates — and can be held at the certified level (statewide) or the registered level (local jurisdiction only). Most flooring scope can also be performed by a general contractor (CGC/CBC/CRC) under their broader license. Florida treats unlicensed contracting as a crime, which is why every flooring sub in this directory carries its DBPR license number.
Moisture testing of the slab is typically the flooring sub's responsibility before installation, since most resilient and adhered systems have a manufacturer-stated moisture limit. Mitigation — applying a moisture-vapor barrier when readings exceed the limit — is usually carried as a separate line and priced as an add when needed. RFQs should state the testing protocol and the mitigation expectation.
Floor prep beyond a stated condition is one of the most common change-order items. A clean flooring bid states the substrate condition assumed — flat to a tolerance, clean, dry, free of contaminants — and prices self-leveling underlayment up to a stated thickness or area. Work beyond that is priced as an add. The RFQ should call out who carries demolition of existing flooring and any heavy patching.
Polished concrete is a finishing process on the existing slab — grinding, densifying, and polishing the surface to a stated gloss level. Epoxy is a coating system applied over the slab. They're priced and warrantied differently and call for different surface prep. RFQs should specify which system is intended; flooring bids should price the named system rather than substituting on appearance.
Resilient base, transition strips, stair nosings, and reducers are typically carried by the flooring sub and priced by linear foot. Wood base and millwork-grade base are usually picked up by finish carpentry. The RFQ should state which trade carries each base type by area; the bid should list base, transitions, and accessories as separate lines so the GC can compare apples to apples.
The badge reflects what was reviewed: a verified state license earns License Verified — the usual path for a flooring sub — a verified certificate of insurance earns Insurance Verified, and a sub with both reviewed shows the Verified Pro umbrella.
