This Return Policy outlines the terms and conditions for returns, exchanges, and refunds across our Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, and Tampa locations.

- Original manufacturer seals intact
- No visible damage to packaging
- Products have not been installed, cut, or altered in any way

20% Restocking Fee
All approved returns are subject to a 20% restocking fee, which will be deducted from your refund amount. This fee covers processing, inspection, and inventory management costs.
Example Calculation:
- Original Purchase: $1,000
- Restocking Fee (20%): $200

Refund Process
Once your return is received and inspected by our team:

- Approval — If approved, we will process your refund within 7–10 business days
- Refund Method — Refunds will be issued to the original payment method used at the time of purchase
- Notification — You will receive email confirmation once your refund has been processed
Please Note: Depending on your financial institution, it may take an additional 3–5 business days for the refund to appear in your account.
Exchanges
We gladly accommodate exchanges for eligible products within the 15-day return window, subject to the same eligibility requirements (unopened boxes only).
Exchange Process:
- Contact our team to arrange an exchange
- Return the original product in unopened packaging
- Select a replacement product of equal or greater value
- If exchanging for a lower-priced item, the difference (minus the 20% restocking fee) will be refunded
- If exchanging for a higher-priced item, you will be charged the difference
Restocking fees apply to exchanges unless the exchange is due to a defect or shipping error on our part.

If you receive defective or damaged flooring materials, we will replace them at no cost to you — no restocking fee applies.
To report a defect or damage:
- Contact us within 48 hours of delivery or pickup

Manufacturer Defects:
- Silent Blue Flooring products carry a 25-year residential warranty / 10-year light commercial warranty (varies by product line)

Refused or Undelivered Orders

Order Accuracy & Inspection
Inspect your order immediately upon receipt.
Before installation:
