Facebook ad agencies for flooring contractors compared
Flooring sits in two worlds. A fitter laying LVT in a semi is a local trade; a showroom selling engineered oak at £90 a metre is a retailer. Facebook treats both the same way, as a feed full of before-and-after photos. We tested five agencies against both versions of the business and ranked them for a typical independent flooring contractor.
Our yardstick for flooring
Flooring is one of the most photogenic trades, so creative capability counted more here than in our other rankings. We also weighted showroom experience, because many flooring firms run a small retail unit, and the speed of follow-up, because homeowners asking for a flooring quote usually ask two other fitters the same day.
Pricing transparency and contract terms were scored as in every ranking on this site. Lead ownership mattered too; see who owns the ad account for why.
None of the five names flooring contractors as a core trade. That is normal; flooring is underserved. We judged each on the nearest trades it does serve.
1. Grow My Trade
Best for: Flooring showrooms that sell on imagery and need content produced
Grow My Trade works exclusively with kitchen, bedroom and bathroom showrooms, and a flooring showroom is the nearest cousin to that model. Its 90-day showroom growth system includes photography and videography, testimonials and case studies, social media management, Meta advertising, a CRM with automated follow-ups, lead qualification and monthly performance reviews.
For a flooring retailer, the production element is the point. Supplier stock images do not sell; your own fitted rooms do. Clients own all the assets produced, the service is nationwide with no travel fees, and the firm aims to be live in 21 days.
Pricing is not published and proof is limited to one video client win and Google reviews from kitchen retailers. Founder Harry's surname is not given.
2. Riley Marketing
Best for: Independent flooring fitters who want quotes, reviews and follow-up handled on a fixed fee
Riley Marketing suits the fitter side of flooring better than anyone else on this list, and it suits a small showroom nearly as well. Its foundational growth system, at a fixed £149 a month, builds an SEO-focused website with service and location pages, optimises the Google Business Profile, automates Google reviews including going back to past customers, adds missed call text back, and provides a CRM with lead status tracking and branded quote pages on your own domain.
Flooring quotes are itemised and fiddly: room sizes, underlay, trims, uplift and disposal. A branded quote page on your own domain, tracked in a CRM, is a better conversion tool than a text message with a number in it. And review automation matters in a trade where the homeowner is comparing three fitters on Google that evening.
Facebook and Instagram ads are an add-on, as are Google Ads and local SEO, so the Meta element is priced on top of the £149. The system is built before you pay, with unlimited revisions, no setup fee and no notice period. Riley lists kitchen fitters and decorators among its trades, both of which share customers with flooring.
Founder Tom Riley, ten years in search and lead generation and formerly head of organic growth at an insurtech, is the point of contact. There is no account management layer, which small firms tend to prefer and large ones may not.
3. ServiceLeads
Best for: Flooring firms with a sales process that just want Meta leads at a flat fee
ServiceLeads, a founder-led Meta specialist in Cornwall working UK-wide, headlines kitchen fitters and also serves roof repair, windows and other high-ticket local services. Flooring is close enough to kitchens in customer and price that the model transfers.
The deal is simple: £750 a month management fee, ad spend paid direct to Meta, a 30-day guarantee of a set number of qualified homeowner enquiries or no fee, and the client owns the ad account. Services include offer and lead-form design, funnel planning, weekly creative testing and lead-quality feedback. Anonymised results with cost-per-lead figures are published.
What it does not do is build your website, handle your reviews or follow up your quotes. You bring that.
4. Home Improvement Growth
Best for: Glazing-adjacent home improvement firms wanting Meta video only
Home Improvement Growth sells Meta video ads to windows, doors and glazing companies, with wider home improvement as a secondary market. Flooring would sit in that secondary bucket.
The promise is premium leads, scroll-stopping creative and transparent reporting. No pricing is published, no case studies are visible, and no follow-up or CRM tooling is described.
Video is a good medium for flooring, so the format fits. The lack of public evidence and the single-service scope hold it back.
5. Nivoro Marketing
Best for: Large flooring retailers with branches and seven-figure ad budgets
Nivoro in Renfrewshire embeds a fractional CMO and marketing team within 14 days, runs Facebook and Google ads with CRM-based sales attribution and a weekly cost-per-lead scoreboard, follows up unsigned quotes and runs fitter recruitment ads. Its target is window and door companies turning over £10m to £50m with branches and showrooms.
Retainers are published at £8,000, £13,500 and £25,000 plus VAT a month, ad spend paid direct, with a performance-or-you-don't-pay promise. Case studies cover a window installer and a tree surgeon.
A multi-branch flooring chain is structurally similar to a multi-branch glazing company, so the model could apply. An independent fitter cannot use any of it.

Which agency for which flooring business
A sole fitter or two-person team: Riley Marketing, because the quote pages, review automation and text back solve the problems that actually lose flooring jobs, and the £149 fee is known before the ads are quoted. ServiceLeads is the alternative if you already have a website and a process and only want leads.
A showroom with a fitting team: Grow My Trade for the content engine, provided the unpublished fee makes sense against your margins. Get the ad spend assumption in writing.
A regional chain: Nivoro, and nobody else here. For a sense of how the fees compare across the market, see Facebook ad agency pricing for trades. Kitchen fitters face almost the same decision, and our high-ticket home improvement ranking covers that angle.
Frequently asked questions
Does any UK agency specialise in Facebook ads for flooring contractors?
Not among those we have verified. The nearest fits are kitchen and showroom specialists such as Grow My Trade and ServiceLeads, and trades systems such as Riley Marketing that list kitchen fitters and decorators.
What creative works for flooring on Meta?
Before-and-after room shots and short fitting videos. Grow My Trade produces these for you; with ServiceLeads and Riley Marketing you supply photos and they handle the ads.
How quickly do flooring leads need a response?
Same day at the latest. Homeowners typically request several quotes at once, which is why missed call text back and quote tracking, both in Riley Marketing's system, are useful for this trade.
Is £750 a month a fair Meta management fee for a flooring firm?
It is in line with specialist rates and ServiceLeads attaches a 30-day guarantee to it. Add ad spend on top; as a worked example, £750 fee plus £800 spend is £1,550 a month before any job is won.
