Flooring Installer

POSITION SUMMARY

S&S Flooring Studio is seeking a skilled, detail-oriented Flooring Installer to deliver precision installation across occupied residential properties, remodels, and new builds throughout the Virginia Beach and Hampton Roads market.

This role sits at the core of our ability to deliver the premium, white-glove client experience we promise. As an installer, you are the final expression of our brand. Your craftsmanship is what clients see, walk on, and live with every day.

This is not a production-line install position. We take a quality-first, service-focused approach to every project, and we need installers who take genuine pride in their craft, communicate professionally with clients on-site, and consistently execute at a high level.
