    Full removal and installation performed at your facility. No repositioning. Coordinated with your maintenance schedule.

Who This Service Supports

  • Corporate Flight Departments

    Directors of Maintenance and Aviation Managers overseeing one or more corporate aircraft. Primary concern is maintaining aircraft availability and cabin standards without disrupting executive travel schedules. Work is typically approved through the Director of Maintenance and coordinated alongside scheduled inspections or phase checks.

  • Part 135 Charter Operators

    Operators managing revenue-generating aircraft fleets where cabin appearance directly affects client experience and charter rates. Downtime equals lost revenue — mobile on-site service minimizes that exposure by eliminating repositioning and integrating with existing maintenance windows.

  • MRO Facilities

    Fixed repair stations conducting heavy maintenance, inspections, and scheduled service events. Require a certified interior repair subcontractor who can perform compliant work on-site without adding logistical complexity or documentation burden to existing maintenance programs.

  • Private Aircraft Owners

    Owner-operators of business jets and turboprops prioritizing convenience, compliance, and asset preservation. Final vendor decisions are often influenced or approved by a maintenance advisor or Director of Maintenance.

Standalone Service or Part of a Larger Project

Carpet & Flooring can be scheduled as a focused single-service engagement or integrated into a broader cabin refurbishment — whichever fits your maintenance schedule and operational priorities.

As a Standalone Service

Scheduled independently during any available maintenance window — a phase check, annual inspection, or unscheduled hold. Minimal setup, short duration, and no impact to adjacent maintenance work. Appropriate when the interior is otherwise serviceable and targeted restoration is the only requirement.

As Part of a Full Interior Project

Coordinated alongside other interior services — seating, carpet, soft goods, cabinetry — during a scheduled heavy maintenance event or cabin refresh program. A single mobilisation covers multiple scopes, reducing total project cost and keeping the aircraft out of service for the shortest possible time.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions from Directors of Maintenance, Aviation Managers, and MRO Program Managers.

Submit a Project Inquiry
Can flooring be replaced during a scheduled maintenance event?

Yes. Carpet and flooring replacement is well suited to planned maintenance downtime. Sufficient window time should be confirmed during inquiry, as removal, installation, and finishing require adequate sequential time.

Are all materials aviation-approved?

Yes. All replacement carpet and flooring materials used are aviation-approved. Non-compliant materials are not substituted under any circumstances.

Is aircraft repositioning required?

No. All work is performed at client facilities within the 350-mile service radius under mobile Part 145 authorization.

Can flooring be replaced in sections rather than the full cabin?

Yes. Partial replacement is within scope where only selected zones require new material. Full cabin replacement is also available and often more cost-effective when coordinated as part of a larger interior project.

Is documentation provided?

Yes. All flooring services are performed under FAA Part 145 authorization with complete maintenance documentation returned to the operator.
