In Business Since 1997

How We Got Started

I chose to work in this industry because Porter & Porter Floor Coverings has been operating in Southern Maryland and the DC area for 20 years. We offer a wide range of flooring materials for both commercial and residential purposes, and we want to help you find the right floor for your needs! Porter & Porter is a family company, owned and operated by brothers Paul, William, and James Porter. Our business seeks materials from only the best suppliers! We strive to give you the broadest selection of carpet, tile, hardwood, and wood alternatives so that you can decide what is best for your home of business. Whether you’re looking for a stylish redesign or a simple, long-lasting replacement for old and damaged floors, we've got you covered! Our work can be seen in homes, businesses, government buildings and places of worship all over DC, Maryland and Virginia..

We started in this industry in 1996.

We describe our business as Family owned and operated

Community Involvement

As a family, we’re invested in community enrichment: we take pride in our tireless dedication to uplifting small businesses, local outreach, and the arts.

At Porter & Porter, we believe in building a strong community and maintaining a clean earth for the next generation.

Install Vinyl or Linoleum Sheet Flooring or Tiles

After nearly a year of trying to decide on flooring and an installer, I finally found Porter&Porter. One home visit with samples and an extensive Q&A session (which Mr. Porter himself obliged us) and we were sold on the product and their service. Within approximately 3 weeks we had the floor we had just spent 10 months looking for. Porter &Porter has 2 new customers for life.

Install Carpeting

Carpet installation was done professionally, with no hiccups. Carpet installer David arrived on time and did a great job installing the carpet. Based on his experience, he made a suggestion to place the carpet where the carpet install would seam perfectly with the existing carpet. Perfect!! Great suggestion, great fit. Well done David, thank you Porter & Porter.

Install or Completely Replace Wood Flooring

Flooring is the bottom line of all our stepping! Therefore, quality flooring is essential. Porter and Porter lives up to anyoneÃ¢Â Â s highest standards of quality. They know the wide expanse of their materials and how to use them to please all of us! Their professional deportment makes one feel that we are their only customer. Their staff is well schooled and reflects their own respectful mannerisms. Like a good surgeon checking in with the patient after the surgery they are always graciously available if any adjustments need to be made. With them one has all the advantages of dealing with a world-wide company and yet also those of dealing with your own neighbor! Thank you, P/P for a job well done!

Find More Pros

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

HomeAdvisor verifies state-level licensing where applicable - note: some states require local or county level licensing and you should verify whether or not your pro is properly licensed.
To find more licensing information for your state, visit our Licensing Requirements page.

HomeAdvisor's Screening Process

HomeAdvisor uses an extensive screening process to screen businesses and business owners/principals. We perform this screening when a business applies to join our network and, if the business is accepted, whenever concerns are brought to our attention. If you have concerns that a pro in our network doesn't meet these standards, please contact us to investigate. We're committed to maintaining a network of trusted home service businesses, and those who don't meet our criteria will be rejected or promptly removed from our network.

Criminal Background Check

Who does HomeAdvisor background check?

The owner or principal of each business in HomeAdvisor's network (with the exception of Corporate Accounts) must pass a background check. Unfortunately, we cannot perform a background check on every employee of a business—the background checks are performed only on the owner or principal. As always, we recommend that you conduct your own research on the businesses you hire, including making inquiries directly with the businesses regarding their employee background check policies.

What does the background check cover?

We use a third-party vendor to conduct a criminal records search in the state in which the business owner or principal works. Our third-party vendor uses a national criminal database ("NCD") to screen service professionals. Businesses will not be admitted to the network if their owners or principals have the following felonies in their available criminal records*:

Arson

Assault/domestic violence/battery

Child abuse

Intimidation/terrorist threats

Kidnapping/abduction

Lewd and lascivious behavior

Manslaughter/murder/homicide/vehicular homicide

Rape/incest

Robbery/carjacking

Sex offenses

Other felonies not listed above that occurred in the past seven years

Contracting without a license in the past seven years

Our background check does not exclude service professionals unless the crime at issue is a felony.

*The comprehensiveness of the NCD varies by state. Please be aware that the reporting in the NCD is particularly limited in the following states: AL, CO, DE, GA, ID, IL, KS, LA, ME, MA, MI, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, SD, UT, VA, VT, and WY. After initial admission to the HomeAdvisor network, businesses are re-screened biennially.

How is COVID-19 impacting the HomeAdvisor background check program?

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, several government agencies and courts across the country have temporarily closed their offices. While HomeAdvisor will continue its background check program to the extent possible, these closures could prevent some background checks from being performed. Please be advised that, during this period, if we could not perform a background check, HomeAdvisor will allow the business into the network and match the business to consumers. As affected government agencies and courts begin to re-open, we will resume our program in those jurisdictions. As always, we encourage consumers to perform their own research, to the extent possible, before hiring any business.

Licensing

We verify any applicable state-level licenses, and we require every business to attest that they carry the appropriate local licensing to practice their trade. Please note that HomeAdvisor does not confirm local licensing. Do your own research using online ratings, reviews and through phone interviews before hiring a company.

Corporate Accounts

Some businesses are employees, franchisees, dealers or independent contractors ("Corporate SP's") of larger national or "Corporate Accounts". When this is the case, we may match you with the Corporate Account or with one of their Corporate businesses. The above screening process does not apply to Corporate Accounts, as HomeAdvisor does not screen Corporate Accounts or Corporate businesses.

Verify Trade License HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license. Verify Insurance As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services. Verification of State Business Filings For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located. Criminal Records Search HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business. Sex Offender Search We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located. Bankruptcy Search We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them. Legal Search for Civil Judgments We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them. Liens Search We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them. Identity Verification (SSN) HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup) We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.

NOTE: Member service professional information confirmed as described above may change or expire over time; while HomeAdvisor attempts to maintain accurate and up-to-date information, and confirms changes when notified, we cannot guarantee that profile and screening information is accurate. Therefore, we recommend that before working with a service professional you verify that information presented is still current and/or acceptable to you.
