Are you ready for some fabulous flooring finds? We’ve got you covered with the latest releases in both soft-surface and hard-surface floors featuring the latest technological advances for your household’s active lifestyles.
It wasn’t that long ago, a few years really, that hardwood flooring was the most sought out floor for the home. Our sales certainly showed this to be true. We believe with today’s technical advances in high-performing carpet fiber, carpet is back on top! Ever-evolving softness, textures, patterns, and colorways in high-quality carpet selections are an attractive, durable floor for any home. Read on for our top three carpet picks.
Spill-Proof Technology
When you think of new carpeting for your home, do you automatically think of how it will stand up to the daily spills in your life? Shaw’s latest LifeGuard Spill-Proof technology protects your carpet from all that life can throw at it.
Shaw has also stepped up their Anderson-Tuftex line of Pet-Perfect carpet collections with an ultra-durable, easy-to-clean, high-performance Anso fiber.
Next Level
Stanton Carpets to unveil their new LUXURY line of indoor/outdoor carpeting. Fabricated with a proprietary yarn system, L.I.O.N. luxury indoor outdoor nylon, is developed to deliver the softest hand while at the same time, delivering the highest level of durability.
Aiming to inspire a luxurious experience, the ‘Luxury’ line is well-suited for any room in the home as an ideal solution for active family lifestyles with all points of protection for kids, pets, and even red wine.

Forward Thinking
A favorite of ours and our customers too is Karastan’s Kashmere collection featuring the SmartStrand brand of easy-to-clean carpeting. New innovations in design and the “All Pet” warranty roll out later in 2023 with Kashmere XTRA - a high-performing carpet combining advances in the SmartStrand fiber paired with nylon fiber. More to come.
In The Office, Sustainability Is Hard At Work
With every year’s new innovations in flooring, we are in awe of the fast track to more sustainable products. Enter Shaw’s latest ReWorx! A new movement in the way commercial carpets will work. A patented hybrid made of 100% PET (polyethylene terephthalate) fiber. This type of fiber is made from recycled plastics such as water bottles and is 100% fiber - no backing, and no glues. What got our attention is the ReWorx program, which simply stated that when the carpet has lived its life, Shaw’s ‘Return Reclamation Program’ will pick up the carpet, break it down through pelletization, and use those materials to make a new product. Are you interested in learning more about ReWorx? We will have samples arriving soon. Click here to contact us, and we’ll let you know when they’re available.
Wood You?
In a word, WATERPROOF has taken over the flooring world by storm. Waterproof vinyl planking, waterproof vinyl stone, waterproof hybrid laminate, and now waterproof engineered wood flooring. All provide resilient, durable, dentproof, and scratchproof technology.
So, why waterproof wood? Classic grain patterns are authentic and can only be found in natural hardwoods. Mohawk’s UltraWood is made for the customer that wants just that; a more authentic hardwood character with all of the worry-free attributes. MADE IN THE USA, Ultrawood combines a slim real wood veneer that is mounted on a high-density fiberboard.
We like to think we’re a little unique, maybe it’s just our flooring

Innovative Intros In Laminate
The Original Waterproof Floor, Tile
When you want a forever floor, you want tile. You may ask what the life span of tile is, and may be surprised to learn that the expected life cycle is 50-plus years! Due to the longevity of tile, its environmental impacts are minimal when compared to other floor coverings that would need to be replaced numerous times over that expected 50-year life span. In 2023 tile rules supreme with inspiring looks in patterns and colors for the walls. To learn more about tile trends, please click on the above pics.

When the time comes for new flooring, you most definitely want to work with a flooring expert.

The quality of the installation establishes the longevity of the product.
