Why Shop Local Instead of a Big Box Store

You can buy flooring, cabinets, and countertops almost anywhere. Here is what you get when you buy them from us instead of a big warehouse store like Home Depot or Lowe's.

We get it. A big box store is convenient, and it is easy to assume they will all give you the same result. After 20 years in this business, we have seen what makes a real difference for homeowners, and it usually comes down to the experience, not just the product on the shelf.

A real person who knows your project

At a big warehouse store, you might talk to a different associate every time you visit, and they are often covering several departments at once. At our showroom, you work with people who live and breathe flooring, cabinets, and countertops every day, and who will remember your project when you come back with a question.

Free measurements, done right the first time

We offer free in-home measurements so your order is accurate from the start. Getting the measurement right the first time avoids delays, reorders, and the frustration of a project that stalls out halfway through.

Upfront pricing with no hidden fees

One of the most common frustrations with big box remodeling is a price that grows once installation, materials, and add-ons get added in. We give you a clear, written quote with upfront pricing and no hidden fees, so the number we give you is the number you pay.

Everything under one roof

Instead of visiting separate departments, or separate stores, for flooring, cabinets, and countertops, you can see and compare all three together in our showroom. That makes it much easier to choose finishes that actually look great together, not just individually.

A family business that stands behind its work

We are a family-owned business, not a national chain. Sylvia and Freddie treat every project like their own home, and that shows in how projects are handled from the first measurement to the final walkthrough. Read more about our story on our about page.

Competitive pricing, without the compromise

Shopping local does not mean paying more. We offer a range of price points to fit different budgets, along with 12 to 24 month financing, so you get a fair price and a team that is invested in getting your project right.
