Our mission is a very simple one. Listen to our customers, offer the most up to date information, provide cutting edge products and Service. Most importantly, we don’t just talk, we do what we say we’ll do. Honesty and integrity still happen here, thanks in major part to a team of professionals and a president that puts her heart into her job. Lorraine Smith is The Flooring People. Almost 16 years ago, Lorraine developed what would soon become one of the most respected flooring and window coverings store in Edmonton. Along with her business partner, Dan Garritty, they have kept the old fashioned values of service and integrity alive. Dan believes in the importance of a handshake and a promise. He goes the distance when extra service is necessary. Add to this a support staff that is the best in the city and you have a real success story. Thanks to Cameron Dick(warehouse and installations manager), Jaclyn Smith (Accounts dept.) and our sales staff, Bill Hurley (Sales and Business Development Representative ), Debra Nyback (Sales Design Consultant) , Gail Stewart ( Sales / Product Consultant ), Doris Luethe, CID, CCIDA ( Interior Decorator Sales Design Consultant ), Brent Kassen ( Sales Design Consultant ).

This is where The Flooring People come in. In recent years, The Flooring People have redefined their extensive showroom to offer a carefully chosen selection of products. The showroom is open, comfortable, and creative. Located just north of the Yellowhead on St. Albert Trail, The Flooring People are easy to find. We carry lines such as Casa Roma porcelains from Italy, Richmond and Mohawk carpeting, premium hardwoods such as Muskoka and Tarkett , laminates and other lines of “green” products such as Marmoleum and Wicanders Cork. We have recently expanded our window covering department and have proudly become Edmonton’s first and only Hunter Douglas Gallery dealer. Here you will find the largest selection of Hunter Douglas products on display, including the exclusive “Alustra Collection” of fine window coverings.

Flooring is one of the most important and expensive investments in a home, whether it is a new home or a renovation. Flooring can enhance property value and it can give a lifetime of pleasure.. This is why all of us at The Flooring People strive to offer our customers the type of flooring suitable to their specific needs and lifestyles. In the same way that no two people are alike, so it is that no two projects or homes are alike. At The Flooring People, we guarantee that your project will be adeptly handled and simplified by our team of very experienced sales people. Knowledge is power and we put enormous value on knowing our product lines. It’s not just about looks, but also about quality.

Challenge…

That is the defining motivation of a city on the move. Edmonton is defined by challenging weather, a challenging economy and a challenge to bring style where style has been lagging. In the middle of all of this activity, however, is the old fashioned need for service. We may be on the fast track but we also have values.
