Our Story
30+ Years of Floors. One Standard.
Owner-operated. Detail-obsessed. Proud of every floor we touch — and the homeowners we get to come back to.
30+ Years. One Standard.
Excellence.
Independent Wood Flooring LLC was built on a simple belief: every homeowner deserves the quality of a true professional — without the runaround, the subcontractors, and the fine print that comes with a big company.
With over 30 years in the flooring industry, owner Jayson Matias brings hands-on expertise to every single job. When you hire us, you're not getting a crew you've never met. You're getting Jayson — on-site, personally overseeing your project from the first walk-through to the final coat.
We serve all of Rhode Island, with growing work in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Our clients range from homeowners renovating a single room to general contractors and kitchen remodel companies who trust us with their most demanding projects.
Our 95% repeat-customer rate isn't a marketing number — it's what happens when you do the job right the first time, educate your customers, and treat their homes with respect.
Three decades of floors, finishes, and craftsmanship across Rhode Island.
How We Work
We Educate You
You shouldn't have to guess what's happening to your floors. We explain every step — which finish fits your lifestyle, how long it takes, and why — so you make every decision with confidence.
We're Detail-Obsessed
Corners, edges, transitions — the details other contractors rush past are exactly where we slow down. You'll see the difference in every square foot.
We Stand Behind Our Work
A 2-year labor warranty and a 95% repeat-customer rate that speaks for itself. We don't cut corners because we know you'll call us again — and we want to earn that call.
