ONE STOP SHOPPING FOR ALL OF YOUR FLOORING NEEDS
Fall, one of the most popular times of the year for home improvement, is just around the corner. Which project are you planning to start first? How about starting simple and replacing your flooring. It will make a world of difference and give your home a fresh look and feel.
Whether you are interested in carpet, wood, laminate, luxury vinyl tile, planks, or rugs, Thoroughbred Carpet & Floors in Savage has a large showroom and warehouse where you can find your perfect flooring solution. A family owned and operated business for 40 years, they pride themselves on giving customers the best selection of flooring, having qualified designers on staff, and the most professional installers.
“ We are able to compete with the big‘ box stores’ because of the high volume we are able to do with the major manufacturers,” says company owner Alli Heise.“ Our showroom features products from Shaw, Tuftex, Mohawk, Masland, Fabrica, Mannington, Kentwood, Cortec, and Provenza, among others. We can usually get almost any product if you make a selection someplace else and have the sample.”
“ We are also one of the largest stocking retailers which means we have remnants and stock rolls on hand for quick turnaround at exceptional values,” added Heise.“ The remnants are perfect if you need to replace a bedroom or smaller area. No job is ever too big or too small.”
In addition to offering a great selection
of products, Thoroughbred Carpet works with its customers from start to finish. There are no“ middle men” or trying to find an installer to do the work.
When you come into the store, the designer who you work with is able to
get you all the information you need. They’ ll schedule an on-site measurement, provide a quote, order the product, and schedule installation.“ We know that any product, no matter what the price, is only as good as the installation. We work only with qualified and reliable installers, most of whom have been with us for years.
Should a problem arise, you don’ t need to track down your installer. You call us and we deal with it directly,” said Heise.
A large part of Thoroughbred Carpet’ s business is referral based; which is one of the reasons why Thoroughbred Carpet has stayed in business, even in shaky economic times.“ We enjoy seeing repeat customers over the years and hear from others that they came in because their parents, sibling, cousin, neighbor, or coworker recommended us. We continue to hear the positive feedback,” said Heise, who added that the company caters to homeowners, remodelers, builders, interior designers and business owners.
