From Aerospace Welding to Flawless Floors

Diego grew up in Brazil watching his father work in aerospace welding — a trade where every millimeter matters, done in silence, with patience and precision. Years later, he earned his own certification and spent time in that same demanding field, where standards leave no room for error. After moving to the U.S., he chose to bring that same discipline to something more personal: flooring and finish installations. That’s how 5 General was born — a company that doesn’t rush to finish, but works carefully so nothing has to be done twice. Today, every aligned baseboard, every clean cut, and every spotless room carries that origin. It’s more than just flooring. It’s a way of working passed down through generations — now brought into your home.
