Murfreesboro Flooring serves Franklin as part of our regular Middle Tennessee service area — the same crew, the same over-20-years-of-experience prep standard, and the same free-quote process whether you’re refinishing original hardwood in a downtown Franklin historic district home or flooring a newer build near Cool Springs.
Franklin, Williamson County — historic homes just south of Nashville
Franklin sits in Williamson County, one of the oldest and most historic towns in Middle Tennessee, with a well-preserved downtown and neighborhoods that mix century-old homes with newer construction. Many of Franklin’s older homes still have original hardwood under carpet or years of wear — floors often worth refinishing rather than replacing. Meanwhile, the newer subdivisions around Cool Springs and Westhaven bring a steady stream of builder-grade floors ready for an upgrade. Whether a floor is original or was installed last decade, our crew treats every Franklin job with the same subfloor prep and moisture testing before work begins.
Slab, crawlspace & what it means for your floor
Franklin has both: established homes on crawlspace or pier-and-beam foundations, and newer construction on concrete slab. It matters, because each one moves moisture differently. Crawlspace subfloors are wood and well-suited to solid hardwood and refinishing, provided we acclimate and moisture-test. Slabs need moisture testing and often a vapor barrier before LVP, laminate or engineered wood goes down. We identify what you’re working over first, then choose and prep the floor for it — the quiet work that decides whether a floor survives Middle Tennessee’s humid summers.

Our five flooring specialties in Franklin
Every service we offer is available for Franklin jobs, listed here in the order Franklin homeowners and businesses ask for them most.
Hardwood Flooring
Our flagship service in Franklin. We install solid and engineered hardwood and, just as often, restore what’s already there — sand-and-refinish and board repair work that brings original Franklin floors back to life instead of ripping them out. Every job gets correct acclimation, subfloor prep and moisture testing, because hardwood is the material that punishes shortcuts the fastest and rewards patient prep with a floor that lasts for decades.
Marble & Natural Stone Flooring
Marble, travertine and natural stone for Franklin foyers, bathrooms and feature spaces that need to feel genuinely high-end. Natural stone is heavy and unforgiving, so it demands a dead-flat, rigid base, precise layout and careful sealing — get any of that wrong and you see cracked grout lines and lippage within a year. We handle the substrate, setting and sealing end to end so the finished floor reads seamless and holds up to real everyday use.
Vinyl Flooring (LVP)
Luxury vinyl plank is the workhorse for Franklin kitchens, baths, basements and busy family rooms. It’s fully waterproof, warm underfoot and forgiving over less-than-perfect subfloors — when it’s prepped right. We flatten and moisture-test the slab or subfloor before a single plank goes down, so seams don’t telegraph and edges don’t lift later. That prep is the whole difference between LVP that still looks new in five years and LVP that gaps and peaks.
Laminate Flooring
A budget-friendly, hard-wearing choice for Franklin bedrooms, hallways, offices and rental properties. Today’s laminate looks convincingly like real wood and shrugs off kids, pets and daily traffic. But the result lives or dies on the underlayment and a genuinely flat subfloor with proper expansion gaps around the perimeter. Those are the prep steps we never skip — so your floor stays quiet and tight underfoot instead of clicking, peaking or separating at the seams.
Commercial Flooring
Offices, retail, restaurants and other Franklin businesses that need flooring installed around a working schedule. We plan the material, the phasing and the installation to keep you open wherever possible, and we build for real traffic — the right wear layers, clean transitions and thorough subfloor prep that keep a commercial floor looking sharp years in, not months. From a single suite to a full build-out, you get one honest quote and one crew that shows up.
Franklin flooring cost — typical per-square-foot ranges
Every Franklin floor is quoted after we measure in person, but here are the typical installed ranges (materials + labor + basic prep) we see across Middle Tennessee, so you can budget before we ever visit.
| Flooring type | Typical installed range | Best for |
|---|---|---|

A typical Franklin project
As a real-world example, a ~300 sq ft Franklin living room in luxury vinyl plank usually lands around $1,500–$2,700 installed — materials, subfloor prep and labor included. A ~500 sq ft hardwood refinishing job typically runs about $1,800–$3,000. Your exact price depends on the material, the condition of the subfloor and the room layout — which is why every Franklin quote is free, in-home and firm before any work starts.
Done right the first time — no shortcuts, no exceptions
An older Franklin home can hide surprises under the surface — uneven subfloors, moisture, decades of settling — and Middle Tennessee humidity only raises the stakes. Every job still gets proper subfloor leveling and moisture testing, acclimation time, and correct expansion gaps — the work that determines whether a floor holds up for years, not just looks right at handoff.

Franklin flooring FAQ
Can you refinish original hardwood in an older Franklin home?
Yes. Wood floor refinishing is one of our core services, and it’s a strong fit for Franklin’s historic homes, where original hardwood under carpet or years of wear is often worth restoring instead of replacing.
Do you handle both historic homes and newer construction in Franklin?
Yes. We work on historic homes downtown and newer builds near Cool Springs and throughout Franklin alike — the material and scope differ, but the subfloor prep and moisture testing standard is the same on every job.
What does hardwood floor refinishing typically cost in Franklin?
Cost depends on the size of the space, the condition of the existing floor, and the finish you choose, so there isn’t one flat number. A free consultation gets you an honest, specific quote instead of a guess.
Which Franklin ZIP codes and neighborhoods do you serve?
We cover all of Franklin and the surrounding Williamson County area — including Historic Downtown Franklin, Cool Springs, Westhaven, Fieldstone Farms and more, across ZIP codes 37064, 37067, 37069. If you’re just outside these, call and we’ll tell you straight whether you’re in range.
Do you work over both slab and crawlspace foundations in Franklin?
Yes. We install over concrete slab and over wood subfloors on crawlspace or pier-and-beam homes. The prep differs — slabs get moisture testing and often a vapor barrier, crawlspace subfloors get flattening, acclimation and moisture checks — and we match the flooring to the foundation you have.
What flooring holds up best in Franklin’s humidity?
For below-grade or moisture-prone rooms, waterproof vinyl plank is the safe pick. Solid hardwood is beautiful and very doable here when it’s properly acclimated and the subfloor is tested first. The right answer depends on the room and the foundation — we’ll give you an honest recommendation during your free quote.
