You’ll be “floored” when you see how our next business is so different!

What are some of the first things that come to mind when I say “Things you hate shopping for” ?  Cars? Furniture? Electronics? What all of these categories, along with many others, have in common is that they are often associated with high-pressure salespeople, crowded stores, and too many (or too few) choices.  Shopping for floors could also be thrown into the mix… until now!

Sorry for the cheesy tagline.

But honestly, chances are that you didn’t even know a service like the one that Floor Coverings International offers even existed.

This month’s featured business is indeed Floor Coverings International.  Although they’re relatively new to the Rochester area (been here just under 2 years) they’ve put quite a buzz in the air about shopping for flooring.

Floor Coverings International is a franchise with many locations across the US and Canada. Now before you go saying “oh, another franchise!” let us explain how they are so much more than that.

FCI builds their business around four basic concepts:

  1. Design guidance – Have you ever found yourself in a big box store standing wide-eyed at the seemingly endless supply of samples along the wall? While FCI offers just as many (if not more) options than the big box retailers, they’ll cater to your needs. How? By asking YOU what YOU want! They’ll make sure that you’re shopping in the right budget range, and looking at the right products. Who knows, maybe they’ll even tell you that you shouldn’t mix a red carpet with your yellow walls!
  2. Large selection – Okay, it was hard for us to avoid that famous car dealer’s HUGE word, but that would better describe the selection.  Each of our mobile showrooms can handle well over 3000 different samples! The types of flooring offered include laminate, hardwood, carpet, ceramic tile, luxury vinyl, and even hardwood refinishing. If you can put it on a floor, chances are they can offer it to you. Budget restraints? They can cater to that too! Whether you’re on a shoestring budget or want the highest quality possible, there’s something for you!
  3. Installation – One of the greatest advantages of working with FCI is that their installers work for them. They don’t subcontract them out.  This insures consistent quality and lets you know that your new floors will be installed by true professionals. No surprises!
  4. Start to finish service – FCI’s awesome salespeople don’t just say goodbye after you sign on the dotted line.  They’re there with you every step of the way. They’ll guide you, let you know what to expect, and answer any questions you may have along the way. You don’t know what to expect when flooring is installed – they do. Consider them your concierge!

Did you catch the one hidden thing that makes FCI SO much different that other flooring retailers? A MOBILE showroom! That’s right. Each salesperson has their very own mobile showroom filled to the brim with flooring samples and they’re waiting to come right to your home.  There’s no rushing, no pressure.  Just a comfortable discussion about what you’re looking for. You can say goodbye to all of those wasted trips bringing samples from the store to home because they’re already there!
