Floors Are Costing You More Than You Think
You can’t shut down – but your floors are worn, unsafe, and ugly.
Surprise flooring failures blow up budgets and weekends.
Most contractors create dust, miss dates, and disappear on the punchlist.
We built Reliable Flooring Group to fix that for Tampa Bay facilities that can’t afford downtime.
Meet David Jehlen
I’m David Jehlen, founder of Reliable Flooring Group. I’ve spent more than 28 years in the flooring industry, including owning my own flooring company and working with one of the largest commercial contract flooring companies in Tampa Bay
Over the years, I managed thousands of projects across commercial, retail, and residential spaces. What stood out was how poorly occupied facilities were served. Most flooring contractors are built for empty spaces or new construction — not active buildings full of staff, tenants, patients, or customers.
Reliable Flooring Group was created to solve that problem.
Why Occupied Facilities Need a Different Approach
Working in an occupied building requires more than just installation skills. It requires planning, phasing, dust control, and respect for the people using the space every day.
That’s why every Reliable Flooring Group project is designed around:
After-hours and weekend work
Clear phasing by area
Serious dust control using our DustSafe™ system
Leaving the space clean and open-ready at the end of every shift
Our goal is simple: redo your floors while you stay open — and help you plan ahead so flooring never becomes an emergency again.
About Reliable Flooring Group
Reliable Flooring Group is a commercial flooring company built specifically for occupied facilities in the Tampa Bay area.
I’m David Jehlen, founder of Reliable Flooring Group. After more than 28 years in flooring and project management, I saw the same problem over and over again: medical offices, office buildings, and busy retail spaces were being served by contractors who weren’t equipped to work while buildings stayed open.

Reliable Flooring Group was created to solve that problem through careful phasing, after‑hours work, and serious dust control. Our goal is simple — redo your floors while you stay open and help you plan ahead so flooring never becomes an emergency again.
