Builder & General Contractor Flooring
Carpet Services Incorporated (CSI) has been the trade partner of choice for Chicagoland builders and GCs since 1979 — fast bids, in-house certified crews, and every flooring type on one account.
Builder and General Contractor Flooring Across Chicagoland
When a project runs on tight timelines and tighter budgets, your flooring sub has to deliver every time. Carpet Services Incorporated (CSI) has been that partner for builders and general contractors across DuPage, Cook, Kane, and Will counties since 1979 — supplying and installing every major flooring category from a single, accountable trade source.
From new construction flooring in Naperville and Oak Brook to multi-unit renovation build-outs in Chicago, our in-house crews handle the full scope: subfloor prep, moisture mitigation, material supply, precision installation, and final trim and transition work. No handoffs to unknown subs, no surprise schedule slips.
Builder and general contractor flooring projects require more than just material — they demand a flooring contractor who communicates clearly, writes accurate bids on the first visit, and schedules around your superintendent's punch-list. That is the CSI standard on every project, from single-family spec homes to large commercial build-outs. Learn more about our full commercial flooring services or call us directly at (708) 222-8200 to open a preferred contractor account.
Contractor Flooring Services Built for Your Schedule
Every service listed below is performed by CSI's own trained crews — no sub-contracting, no surprises.
New Construction Flooring
Coordinate phased installs with your construction schedule. CSI supplies and installs all flooring types for spec homes, custom builds, and residential subdivisions across Chicagoland. We work directly with your site super from rough-in to final walk.
Subfloor Prep & Leveling
Sound subfloors are the foundation of any successful flooring installation. Our crews handle concrete grinding, subfloor preparation, self-leveling compounds, moisture mitigation, and old-floor removal before any material goes down.
Commercial Build-Out Flooring
Office suites, retail spaces, restaurants, and tenant improvements — CSI delivers commercial flooring services on GC timelines. We write accurate estimates off your plans and coordinate installations around occupied phases and weekend work windows.
Punch-List & Repair Work
We're on-call for punch-list corrections and flooring repairs on active job sites. Whether it's a damaged plank after trades traffic, a seam issue, or a warranty call-back, CSI dispatches quickly to keep your project on track for final occupancy sign-off.
Trim, Transitions & Baseboards
The details close the project. Our crews install all flooring baseboards, trim, and transitions to match the flooring system — T-molds, reducers, stair nosings, and base molding — so your handoff to the owner is clean and complete.
Fast-Turnaround Installations
When your certificate of occupancy is around the corner, you need a flooring sub who can move. Our fast-turnaround flooring installation capabilities — backed by material stock and dedicated crew capacity — are built specifically for deadline-driven contractor projects.

Builder & Contractor Feedback
From residential subdivisions to commercial tenant improvements — CSI is the flooring sub Chicagoland contractors rely on.
"We've used CSI on six commercial build-outs in DuPage County over the past two years. Their bids come back accurate, the crews show up when they say they will, and the LVP installation quality is consistently excellent. They're on our preferred sub list for a reason."
"On a 24-unit residential build in Naperville, CSI coordinated carpet and LVP across three phases without a single scheduling conflict. The subfloor prep work was thorough, and there were zero warranty call-backs. That kind of reliability is hard to find in a flooring sub."
"Restaurant and retail flooring is punishing on timelines — owners want to open and they do not wait. CSI turned around a porcelain tile installation for a Chicagoland restaurant in a 48-hour window over a weekend. The quality was impeccable. We recommend them without hesitation."
