About Forney

Floors built for Forney homes.

Our showroom is at 10 Mustang Court, so Forney isn't a service area for us, it's the town we work in every day. Between April 2020 and July 2024 the Census Bureau had Forney as the fastest-growing city in the country, up 64.2% to 38,572 people, and most of that arrived as fresh slab in Devonshire, Gateway Parks and Travis Ranch. We also floor the older frame houses near the downtown antique shops. Call (972) 564-5533 and we'll bring samples to the house.

Forney is our home base, and the town splits cleanly into two different flooring problems. North and south of US 80 you have master-planned ground, Devonshire off FM 548, Gateway Parks between US 80 and I-20, Travis Ranch, Windmill Farms, Clements Ranch, nearly all of it slab-on-grade and nearly all of it built since 2000. The permit record shows the pace: 1,082 single-family permits in 2021, 663 in 2024, 273 in 2025. Those houses arrive with builder-grade carpet and thin sheet vinyl that most owners are finished with inside five or six years.

On a young slab, two things decide the job: moisture and flatness. A slab poured and framed over quickly can still be releasing moisture a couple of years later, so we test before any glue-down or engineered wood goes near it. Flatness matters more than people expect in the open-concept plans these builders favor, where one continuous run of plank crosses the entry, kitchen and living room with nothing to break it up. High spots get ground and low spots get filled before the first board is laid.

What we run into in Forney

Older Forney is a different animal. Around the downtown antique shops, Bell Park at Trinity and Bois d'Arc, and the original Founders Addition, you find pre-war frame houses sitting on pier-and-beam with plank subfloors. Those need the subfloor stiffened and levelled first, and they almost always need casings undercut, because the finished floor height changes.

Underneath all of it is Blackland Prairie clay. Houston Black, the state soil, is a Vertisol: it swells when wet and shrinks when dry, and the series description records seasonal movement of several centimeters. That is the practical argument for floating a click-lock plank instead of gluing it down in a house that already shows movement, and for putting a crack-isolation membrane under any tile we set.

Forney FAQs

Flooring in Forney, questions

Our Devonshire house is only four years old. Why does the flooring already look worn?

Because builder allowances in the Forney master-planned communities usually cover entry-level carpet and a thin sheet vinyl in the wet areas. Neither is built for a decade of traffic. The slab underneath is usually fine, which is good news: once we grind the high spots and fill the low ones, a wear-layer LVP or engineered wood goes down over the same subfloor and lasts far longer.

We're in an older Forney house near the antique shops, on pier-and-beam. Can you do the same floors?

Yes, but the prep is different. Pier-and-beam houses off the downtown streets typically have plank subfloors that have moved over decades. We stiffen and level the deck first, add underlayment where it's needed, then install. Expect the finished floor to sit slightly higher than the old one, which means door casings get undercut and interior doors may need trimming.

Do we have to come to the Mustang Court showroom to pick materials?

You're welcome to, the showroom is at 10 Mustang Court and it's a short drive from anywhere in Forney. But most people would rather see samples in their own light, next to their own cabinets and walls. Estimates are free and we bring samples to the house. Once you've decided, we can usually start within about two days.
