Flooring Proz crew on the job in Hartford, CT
Careers at Flooring Proz

Build a career in flooring.

We're a Hartford-based flooring company that takes craft, training, and the people on our team seriously. We currently have two openings — one in sales and one in our paid apprenticeship program.

About the team

A small crew that takes the work — and each other — seriously.

We're not the biggest flooring company in Connecticut, and that's the point. We hire carefully, train thoroughly, and pay people for the skills they actually build. If you want a place where the work is honest, the standards are real, and there's a clear path to grow — we'd like to meet you.

01

Honest first

We tell homeowners the truth — even when it costs us a sale. Same goes for how we treat each other.

02

Craft over speed

We never sacrifice a clean cut to save twenty minutes. The job is done when it's right.

03

Coach each other

Every senior teammate mentors. That's how we grow people and protect our standards.

04

Own the outcome

If something isn't right, we make it right — on our dime, without the runaround.

What we offer

The basics, done right.

Paid Training

Structured onboarding for every role. We don't throw anyone in the deep end.

Competitive Pay

Clear pay structure with defined raises tied to skill milestones — no surprises.

Mentorship

Ride-alongs, shadow days, and a real person to call when you have questions.

Sales / Lead Gen / Estimator

Part-timeHartford, CT
Commission-based + training support

Honestly? If you're between jobs, tired of clocking into something you hate, or just looking for a fresh start with a crew that actually likes showing up — this could be the one. It's a part-time, commission-based gig where you talk to homeowners, help them pick out floors they'll love, and get paid for closing the deal. No suit. No cubicle. No corporate weirdness.

We'll teach you everything — the products, the pricing, how to measure a room, how to talk to people who are nervous about spending money. You bring the energy and the willingness to learn. We'll handle the rest.

What the day looks like

  • Get out in the community, meet people, drum up leads
  • Head to homeowners' houses and walk through their space with them
  • Measure the rooms, talk through options, build the quote on the spot
  • Close the deal at the kitchen table — and high-five yourself in the truck
  • Hand the job off to our install crew and stay their go-to person until it's done

Who we're looking for

  • Someone who knows how to have fun and doesn't take themselves too seriously
  • Eager to learn — we love training people who actually want to get good at this
  • Clean, put-together appearance (you're going into people's homes)
  • Reliable car, valid license, and a phone that works
  • Cool with some evenings and Saturdays when homeowners are actually home
  • Self-motivated — the harder you work, the bigger the check, simple as that

What you get out of it

  • Commission with no ceiling — you decide your raise
  • Real training so you're not just winging it
  • Sample kit, iPad, and CRM — all the tools handed to you
  • Wardrobe allowance + branded gear so you always look the part
  • A team that hangs out, jokes around, and actually has each other's backs
  • Ride-alongs with someone experienced until you're ready to fly solo

If you're nodding along reading this — just apply. We'd rather meet a great person with zero experience than a "perfect resume" with no personality.

Apprentice Installer

Full-timeHartford, CT
$16.94/hr Pre-Apprentice · $19.23 → $28/hr through Step 8

A paid apprenticeship for someone who wants to learn a real trade and build a career — not just a job. Step 1 starts at $19.23/hr and the ladder tops out at $28/hr at Step 8 (Journeyman). Every step is an automatic raise the moment your Lead signs you off, so the faster you build the skills, the faster your check grows.

Zero experience? Start as a Pre-Apprentice at $16.94/hr.

Step 1 of the apprenticeship assumes some construction basics — you can read a tape measure and know a little of the lingo. If you don't have that yet but you're eager to learn, our Pre-Apprentice phase is how you earn your way in. It's usually quick, gives us a chance to see your work ethic, and you start making real money on day one.

Perfect for high school grads who want into a growing trade with real earning potential — instead of starting at the bottom of a job that doesn't go anywhere.
