Who Are We?
The Academy of Textiles and Flooring has been a leader in restoration education for over 50 years.

Whether it’s in the classroom or our 1,200 sq. ft. flood house, you’ll get the experience that actually matters.
Our instructors aren’t just teachers—they’re industry pros. Led by Nate Seward, a Mechanical Engineer, Certified Industrial Hygienist, licensed contractor, and EPA-approved instructor, our team is built on serious credentials and even more serious passion for the industry.
