WHAT ARE YOUR COMMERCIAL FLOORING NEEDS?
If you need commercial flooring, you probably already know that there are a wide variety of materials and services at your disposal. The ones that work best for your specific needs are dependent on certain factors that we will assess on a case-by-case basis. Here are a few facts that could help steer you in the right direction for the very best commercial options.
Commercial flooring you can count on
Commercial settings require
flooring with specific attributes and characteristics, and they can vary drastically from business to business. For instance, if you are flooring a place of worship, you will need an entirely different material than if you need flooring for a factory floor. The good news is that we can help match you with perfect options for both and everything in between.
Commercial carpet is a perfect choice for offices, waiting rooms, and educational facilities because it is not only durable but provides stunning visuals that match nearly any décor. The fibers in this specific flooring line are created for heavy traffic, repetitive wear, and stain protection, so you’ll find it lasts longer than many other materials like it.
Carpet tile is a smart option, especially for spaces where stains and damage are a greater possibility. If these pieces become damaged, you don’t have to replace all the flooring in the room. Instead, you can remove the affected pieces and replace them with new ones, so it looks like you have new flooring throughout.
We understand your installation needs and work to ensure as little downtime for your establishment as possible. Our associates will discuss your chosen flooring's details and work with you to create solutions that work for you. If you have questions about these materials or services, be sure to let us know.
We’ll find you the flooring that serves your needs
At DeSitter Flooring, we offer the products and services that meet your needs, whatever that happens to be. We specialize in all areas, from product selection and design consultation to installation and aftercare. Our associates and technicians are trained and trustworthy, so you don't have to worry about a less than perfect experience.
