Subtask Breakdown

2 / 8

When Robots Work

Market Depth
Subfloor Preparation and Levelling Deployed screeding coverage across six customers; envelope is open slabs before framing.
2 robots 3 deployments
LVT/LVP/Resilient Installation Single vendor in pre-production for vinyl plank only; no field data yet.
1 robot 0 deployments
Tile Setting (Ceramic/Stone) Two robots handle placement on flat substrates; one still requires hand-applied adhesive.
2 robots 0 deployments

Still Crew-Led

Carpet Installation (Stretch-In) Stretch calibration is entirely haptic; no sensor can replicate it today.
Crew-Led
Grouting and Sealing (Tile) Geometry is repeatable and automatable; no vendor has shipped a system.
Crew-Led
Hardwood Installation (Nail-Down and Glue-Down) Board selection and environmental read demand deep craft; nothing in development.
Crew-Led
Hardwood Sanding and Finishing Pass motion suits automation but grit and angle judgment has no solution.
Crew-Led
Moisture Testing Fully deterministic protocol; no vendor ships automated probe placement.

What's different about buying a robot

Four checks before you shortlist a robot below.

Name one owner

Usually a flooring installation superintendent. That person can say in one line what the robot does, what it doesn't, and why it's on the job.

Evidence beats claims

Repeat customers and published deployments matter. So does seeing it run on a site like yours, not in a vendor video.

Respect the workflow

Every robot has non-negotiable inputs and a window where it fits. When prep slips or sequencing isn't planned, the robot fails. Either the workflow change is real, or the robot isn't.

Ask what it can't do

Every robot has trade-offs. The vendors worth your time walk you through the whole picture of where it wins and struggles.
