Elevate Your Space Without the Remodel Headache
Your home should lift you up. Whether it's the space where you unwind after work or the backdrop for family memories, it deserves to feel clean, modern, and energizing. That’s why we started FloorLift: to bring fast, high-quality flooring installation to Albany and the Capital Region of New York without the friction of traditional home improvement.
We’re a local flooring company built for today’s homeowner: busy, discerning, and tired of outdated contractor experiences.
The Problem: Flooring That Takes Forever
Most flooring projects start the same way:
A trip to an outdated showroom, a confusing quote, and weeks of radio silence from the contractor. Even worse? Some installers don’t even show up when they say they will or push your install date out by a month.
We knew there had to be a better way.
Enter: FloorLift
We specialize in same-day flooring removal and floating flooring installation, offered with:
Fast scheduling (in-home or virtual consultations)
Modern, durable flooring products
Clean, respectful, professional crews
Optional furniture moving, so homeowners don’t have to lift a finger
We’re not trying to be everything to everyone. We’re laser-focused on quick-turn, high-quality floor transformations for homeowners who want a beautiful upgrade with none of the typical stress.
Our Mission: Fast, Professional Flooring for Busy People
We built FloorLift for the people who don’t have time to babysit contractors:
Corporate professionals who want a clean, refreshed space
Retirees looking for low-maintenance flooring
Young families upgrading their homes
House flippers and rental investors who need speed and reliability
Our goal is simply to make flooring installation fast, frictionless, and professional without cutting corners.
We bring a digital-first, customer-first mindset to the trades. You can book online. Get a quote in minutes. Ask questions by text.
No more waiting. No more chasing. Just a beautiful space, lifted in a day.
What Makes FloorLift Different?
When you search for a “flooring contractor near me,” you’ll find dozens of options. But here’s how we’re different:
Same-Day Turnaround
We specialize in fast rip-and-replace vinyl flooring installs, often completed in a single day.
No Showroom, No Salesmanship
We’ll never ask you to drive across town to look at flooring samples. We bring everything to you, either in person or virtually.
Local and Proud
We’re not a franchise. FloorLift is 100% locally owned and operated, serving Albany and the surrounding towns of the Capital Region. In fact, our owner learned the flooring trade while working for Habitat for Humanity over the course of 3 years in Syracuse!
Only Floating Floors
We don’t do adhered floors, tile, or carpet. We’ve chosen to specialize in floating vinyl plank because it’s fast, clean, durable, and beautiful. And that means we do it better than anyone else.
Built for the 518 — And Here for the Long Haul
FloorLift was founded with one goal: to raise the bar for home services in the Capital Region. We’re not a side hustle. We’re not a traveling crew passing through. We’re a locally committed company with long-term plans to create good jobs, beautiful spaces, and real value for homeowners across Albany and beyond.
Our focus today is flooring — fast, high-quality vinyl plank installs that transform a room in a single day. But our vision is bigger.
We believe the Capital Region deserves:
Reliable tradespeople who show up on time
A better experience from first quote to final walkthrough
Home improvement that feels exciting, not stressful
That’s why we’re building FloorLift as the first in a family of home improvement brands built right here in Upstate New York. As we grow, we’re investing in training local crews, improving systems, and offering more ways for homeowners to fall back in love with their space, quickly and professionally.
We’re not here to take shortcuts. We’re here to build something that lasts.

We proudly serve Albany and the entire Capital Region of New York, including: Colonie, Guilderland, Schenectady, Troy, Clifton Park, Niskayuna, Latham, Saratoga Springs, Delmar, and Rensselaer.
If you’re in the 518, we’ve got you covered!
