About the CFA

AGM Flooring became members of the Contract Flooring Association in July 1992, the association was formed in 1973 by the amalgamation of three small flooring associations: The Floor Covering Contractors Association, whose members specialized primarily in smooth floor coverings: the Association of Flooring Contractors (hardwood flooring) and the Carpet Planners Association.

Its present membership, therefore, consists of contractors engaged in the installation of all floor finishes including in-situ floorings and sub-floor screeds, with manufacturers and distributors of flooring materials, adhesives and accessories. There is also a category of membership for flooring consultants.

One of the CFA's major functions is to promote the flooring industry to the architect and specifier. Following the selection of material and no less important, is the choice of flooring contractor. In this regard, the CFA can be of valuable assistance since the criteria it demands from companies seeking membership are high.

A minimum of 2 years trading is mandatory and the applicant must be sponsored by 2 existing members.
Trade reference and evidence of public liability insurance are required, with full details of4 recent contracts, any one of which may be inspected by a member of the CFA Council.

This procedure ensures that an architect nominating a CFA member can do so with confidence, secure in the knowledge that the company is stable and maintains a high standard of workmanship.
