Your Local Team for Expert, Reliable Flooring Projects
The team at Nielsen Brothers Flooring believes flooring projects should be straightforward, not stressful. It doesn’t matter whether your family home, commercial property or rental needs updates because our team will be here for you. We’ll be your honest guide through the process. Benefit from working directly with our owner, Mike Nielsen, get transparent pricing with no hidden costs and skilled installations from crews who’ve worked with us for over 20 years.
How do we get it done? Our owner personally handles every consultation and measurement. Our experienced installers respect your home and provide precise workmanship. We choose materials made for the Pacific Northwest as we understand the importance of moisture management as well as subfloor challenges and realities of Seattle-area homes. When you choose us, you get a team that treats you like family and we honor the trust you place in us.
Older homes have subfloor challenges and our weather is unpredictable. Active families with kids and pets as well as commercial properties need floors that last. Flooring services from our flooring professionals are made for real-world living because there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach. Explore our services below:
Our crews who’ve worked with us for over 20 years take care of everything: subfloor assessment, moisture checks, precise measurements, proper acclimation of materials, power-stretching carpet, leveling hard surfaces, clean transitions and finishing touches. You’ll know exactly who comes to your home. We install carpet, hardwood, luxury vinyl, laminate and tile with the same attention to quality. A beautiful floor begins with proper installation.
Installing stairs requires precision, attention to detail and years of experience. We customize nosings, treads, risers and transitions to create a safe, cohesive look that flows naturally with the rest of your home. Between classic carpet runners with premium padding included, elegant hardwood or modern luxury vinyl, our craftsmanship gives you stairs that are sturdy, beautiful and installed to last. Both safety and aesthetics are top priorities.
Besides choosing the product, shopping for flooring is about finding what makes sense for your home and lifestyle. Our team will work with you to make a decision based on your lighting, existing decor, how you use each space and the overall feel you’re going for. By narrowing your options down to a shortlist, you can make confident choices that suit your home and budget.
Removing old flooring safely and properly is essential. We take care of carpet, hardwood, vinyl, laminate or tile removal and disposal. This service reveals what’s underneath. From there, we can address moisture issues, subfloor damage and leveling needs before they become bigger headaches. We keep the space clean, protect your belongings and leave behind a surface prepared for beautiful new floors.
Subfloor prep is essential, especially in older homes in the Great Seattle area. Settling, moisture and age create uneven surfaces. Leveling prevents shifting floors, hollow sounds and visible height differences. Our team takes care of subfloor repair, self-leveling compounds, moisture mitigation, refastening loose subfloors and the necessary prep work to create a stable, even foundation.
Want to give your hardwood floors a new color or restore their original beauty? Professional floor staining will make your hardwood look brand new again. We help you choose stain colors that fit your home’s styles, prepare the wood properly through sanding and apply stain evenly for a rich, consistent finish.
Hardwood floors last for generations, but are bound to start showing wear at some point. Sanding and refinishing restores your hardwood, removes scratches and stains and lets you change the color or sheen if desired. We carefully sand to remove the old finish, repair damage or staining and apply protective topcoats to breathe new life into your floors.

EXCELLENT Based on 8 reviews Posted on Ron SemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our new carpet was installed about 1 1/2 years ago. My wife and I enjoyed the experience of selecting a new carpet at Nielsen Bros Flooring. We were respected and treated well by the store employees and owner. Recommendations were made by the store and after careful consideration a selection was made. We were pleased with the installation and after all this time are pleased with the carpet choice we made.Posted on Gary AlbertTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had numerous bedrooms and family room done with Nielsen Bros in the past 40 years. They always delivered a great product at a fair price and did outstanding work. The last installation was for three bedrooms and the master bedroom. They laid out the master bedroom with ONE piece of carpet that covered the bedroom and the walk-in clothes closet too to eliminate seems. Thoughtful planning and a great benefit to us.Posted on torsten welteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Thank you all.Posted on jamie NguyenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bought our carpet from here last fall. Great selection in many styles and qualities of carpet. We bought a high end carpet and couldn't find a cheaper price when we shopped around. They let us take their big samples home for a few days and the timeliness and installation were fantastic! Also appreciated their no pressure sales team.Posted on George McKayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love the new floors! Great product and install.
