Name my company. 100k prize. (in Contests)
I have recently started my own company as a Floor layer and picked up a number of decent contracts. I am currently expanding and growing in these times of recession. It is now at the point where I need a company name instead of numbers.
100k to the best name >IMO<
Should have something to do with floors or floor laying.
A clever name would help.
Nothing non-pg or implying non-pg.
Should appeal to Rich people as well as contractors.
Contest is subject to end immediately after I find a name that I like.

You can always go with "Absolute Flooring." It's generic, but starting the name with "Ab" guarantees good placement in the phonebook.
employees, or just you?
layman or laymen? ; )

whats your name? My friends used thier first letter of their last names to make their company "DC Flooring"
I would personally do something like "FTW Flooring" or "Flooring FTW"

All your Floors are belonged to us?
Floors 'r' us?
Put our Floor behind your Door?

"Last Name" Flooring
If your business becomes very successful you'll be remembered by the name. Definitely pick your last name, and if you have a son even better.
I think I have a winner but keep them coming I may change my mind.

You could even get a truck with the company name on it. Who wouldn't want their last name on their truck?

Nobody uses the yellow pages any longer so don't worry about placement.
Don't use words like "Best," "Affordable," "Quality," or "Budget." I have found the opposite is almost always true of those company's.
"Get Floored Flooring"
"Underfoot Flooring"
"Flat Out Flooring"
"Not Boring Flooring"
"Incredible Designs"
"Flooring Prose" because "All the worlds a stage" while we are merely the layers!":-)
"The Floor Pros"
acme flooring, with a picture of wylie coyote laying tile! ; )
Sturdy Ground
May think of something else later.
Anyone find my laid joke, funny? I think I may start using it :P
it would likely get you...floored! ; )
"Need to get laid?"
"Call "blah blah blah" Flooring."
Use that catch phrase for any name, lol
It's not over, but these are the ones I like most.
You can still submit entry's how ever I am narrowing down the current ones.
Absolute Flooring
Top Shelf Flooring
Cutting Edge Flooring
A Cut Above Flooring
Euflooria
Jedi Flooring(or Master Flooring)- "May the Floors be with you" (cant believe no one else thought of that :P )
Granite & Gold Standard Flooring.(sisters suggestion)
Stoned Flooring- (Depends on the type of floors you install.)
We 'B' Flooring / or We 'B' Floored

I don't think you should underestimate "Pro"... Give this to the person who brought that in, but something like a one-word "ProFloor" or "FloorPro" could work...
I agree about staying away from words like "Budget", but the words Quality, Pro, Expert, and Master are still good... Some more one-word ideas:
QualiFloor
FloorMaster
FloorEverything
EveryFloor
I really like Floor2Floor -- such a great symmetry for "Wall to wall". You could even use "Wall2Wall Flooring" or somesuch...

Sorry, have some more:
DuraFloor (might be a brand name already?)
Floor Architect
The Floor Guy(s)
The Floorist
Elite Floors
Floor Elite (sounds like "Fur Elise", sort of)
FloorSquad
Bottom Line Flooring (maybe sounds cheap, though)
FloorSorbet
Flooricious
Floorocious
On The Level Flooring
FloorSpace
And now I have to be good and right and proper for all of my crazy names to make it through the spell checker. I hope you like some of my suggestions!
It has been a pleasure serving your naming needs!

To Sut for Cutting edge floors.....a lot of entry's were excellent.
Thank you everyone for your kind and thoughtful suggestion.

Congrats to Sut, and good luck to AK with the business.
Also, don't forget that you can probably find a CB player tech-savvy enough to whip up a website using a template that still looks professional and sleek.
