A flooring store that sells installation runs two businesses at once: the showroom and the job. Quotes live in spreadsheets, measurements on paper, installers phone to ask where to go, customers phone to ask when, and the invoice has to match what was signed.
We built iFloor, our own software, to carry each job from the first quote to the final payment in one system. Its first store, in Richmond, BC, has run on it every day since June 2026, with its own portal for store staff, for subcontract installers and for customers. On the showroom side, we built the online store for Floor Warehouse, a Burnaby flooring distributor, with 55 product listings sorted the way buyers shop.
Each section below is tied to one of those builds and to the service page that explains it. Start with the piece that costs you the most today: the free 30-minute assessment finds it, and we come to you, at your store, at a spot near you or online.
Built for flooring
The jobs a flooring store's software and website have to do. Each one names the build where it runs today and the page with the detail.
A customer picks a measurement time from their iFloor portal in 30-minute slots from 8:00 to 4:30, and windows where every installer is booked are greyed out. Staff confirm in place, and the visit ends with a submit-to-salesperson step stamped with who measured it.
The installer measures each room by length and width on a phone, and the numbers feed straight into the priced labour sheet. Pattern waste of 10, 15 or 20 percent becomes a box count, the server prices labour from the owner's rate card, and GST and PST apply separately.
One labour sheet holds labour beside materials and carries the job through nine stages from draft to paid. The customer signs with a finger, and the image, name, time, IP and browser are saved. Approving runs into picking an install date, and a price increase needs a new signature.
The schedule has one row per installer: drag to move a job or stretch a multi-day install, with a warning before a double booking. Installers block their own days off, a six-week view shows each installer's capacity, and install time is worked out from that installer's own working day.
Subcontract installers sign in to their own portal with jobs, a calendar, required documents such as insurance, earnings and messages, and never see the store's cost or margin. They get a text at 7 AM Pacific the day before each job, and Mark done unlocks only at 100 percent.
Customers open one private link, with no account or password, and follow seven steps from estimate to paid. The top card shows the one next thing to do, an On my way text arrives on install day, and the page shows which parts of the job are done.
Every order line carries its supplier, PO, ETA and fulfilment type. Saving an order opens one ready-written PO email per supplier, a PO with no confirmation 6 hours after sending is flagged the same day, and AI reads a pasted order screenshot into a draft for staff to check.
Floor Warehouse's store sorts 55 listings two ways, by eight named collections and four floor types, each with its own page. Every product lists water rating, wear layer, thickness, board size and square feet per box. Dealers apply for an account online, and checkout runs through Stripe.
Case studies
iFloor is the operations software Nametech built for flooring stores: one labour sheet from quote to paid, priced on the server, measured on a phone and signed online, with portals for staff, installers and customers, and calls, texts and email inside the app.

Most stores start with the piece that loses them the most time, often quotes or scheduling, and add the portals once the office feels the difference.
FAQ's
Software that follows a flooring job the way it is sold: one labour sheet with labour beside materials, measurements taken on a phone that feed the price, a finger signature, then an install date in the same sitting. Around it sit installer scheduling, portals for installers and customers, and supplier orders tracked by PO.
Yes. In iFloor a customer picks a measurement time from their portal in 30-minute slots, and times when every installer is already booked are greyed out. Staff confirm the visit in place, the customer can reschedule from the same page, and once the date has passed the page stops offering changes.
Yes. In iFloor installers sign in to their own portal with their jobs, calendar, documents, earnings and messages, and see only the customers of their own jobs, never cost, margin or staff notes. They get a text at 7 AM Pacific the day before each job, and their invoices come numbered in their own name.
The range, sorted the way buyers shop. Floor Warehouse's store lets a buyer start from a named collection or from a floor type, and every product lists water rating, wear layer, thickness, board size and square feet per box. Each range has its own page to share, and dealers apply for an account online.
It depends on what it has to do. A store that shows your range and takes orders online is a smaller job than software that runs each job from quote to paid with portals for installers and customers. We publish no flat price. After the free 30-minute assessment you get a written estimate, GST on top.
