Floor Installation Oversight and Consulting

During any kind of construction or remodeling project involving new flooring, there are many factors that can go wrong without the assistance of an expert. Construction professionals and property owners should employ best practices to ensure all stages of the project run smoothly, and the oversight from a qualified flooring inspector can be greatly assistive in this process and reduce the risk of flooring and related issues both during and after construction.

Moore certified flooring inspectors are trained in product problems and causes of common floor installation failures. We assess the safety and properties of various floor surfaces and can determine the root cause of any issue and assist in flooring failure investigations.

Perfect for the start of new construction projects to prevent future damage and save on costs from improper installation of flooring properties, but if issues arise once the flooring is already laid, our certified floor inspectors can analyze the conditions and determine the necessary solutions. That way, you can rest assured that the repair recommended is the only one you’ll need.

Beyond analyzing floor installation failures, we offer a variety of tests, from concrete moisture to slip testing to adhesion testing, all to give you the most thorough results possible.

  • Substrate knowledge covering luxury vinyl tile, laminate, resilient, and solid and engineered wood.

  • Commercial properties including large chain stores, warehouses, kitchens, and clean rooms.

  • Understanding of manufacturer and warranty requirements.

  • Prevent future issues and reduce costs.

Moore provides engineering oversight to ensure work is done accurately and thoroughly. Knowledgeable in various floor types and installation methods, our certified flooring inspectors are equipped to troubleshoot any problems that may arise and provide guidance that all installations are being carried out per industry standards.

Instructions and procedures from the manufacturer are often complex and overlooked. Moore utilizes industry knowledge and experience to review and communicate the specifications in a simple and streamlined manner so that installation instructions are understood by everyone involved. This way, the contractor and client know that all work is in compliance with manufacturer requirements, which prevents headaches from any accidents or insurance claims that may arise.

Guidance and oversight of substrate preparation coupled with appropriate testing such as concrete moisture testing can assist in ensuring a proper installation. By reviewing these results, Moore provides engineering oversight to ensure that the proper materials are being used.

For example, in many circumstances the manufacturer will recommend bond testing of products to substrates prior to installation flooring, which can include a company like Moore Engineering performing adhesion testing to ensure the products are compatible (ASTM F710-19 Mat/Bond Test).

We can provide an Overview Report detailing what work occurred and sign off that all work was performed following industry standards and met manufacturer criteria. If claims arise, having this report is just another step in guaranteeing your flooring project complies with industry standards with certified technicians approving the work.
