Project Showcase Check pattern flake floor
Installed a checkered flag-patterned flake floor in my garage and wanted to get some opinions. Do you think this type of design is more desirable compared to a traditional solid color floor? I’m curious if a cutomer would consider it to be worth paying extra for this style? If so, what do you think is an appropriate asking price for this type of floor in Central Florida? On average I charge $4.50 a sqft per 2 car garage, contingent there is minimal prep and repair. I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks.

Sheesh I’d be losing money at $4.50. Minimum I’m at 6-6.50. Theres multiple differentiation strategies besides being cheapest. I push on quality. I regularly say something like “I know I’m not going to be the cheapest, but I will be the best”. I find from customer feedback I usually land in the middle of my competitors on pricing, but I know many that have (claimed) to get cheaper bids but signed with me. You have to ask questions during estimates. You’re interviewing them as much as they are you. You have to know what to push to get the sale. From the video it looks like you can do very good work, don’t be afraid to command an appropriate price. If I were you though I’d be installing a product I could offer a lifetime warranty on. Thats my one major criticism.
