Wholesale flooring warehouse opens to public near LBI

In the midst of recovery from Superstorm Sandy, a new carpeting and flooring warehouse has sprung to life in the Village Harbour Plaza, located on Route 72 in the Beach Haven West section of Stafford Township. All Floors Flooring Outlet and Supplies opened for business last week, but its establishment has been “in the works” for quite some time.

Co-owners Greg Mile and Dominick Nardo operate American Flooring, which deals with contractors, a few miles down the road on Bay Avenue in Manahawkin. The two decided to expand their busy services in the flooring industry by opening another store that is available to the public.

All Floors Flooring Outlet and Supplies

 opened up to the public. 
Now, anyone can purchase carpeting and flooring at the wholesale price, a discount that is usually offered only to contractors. The store’s prices are typically 25 percent less than what major retailers charge, Mile noted.
“We service all the builders, architects (and) real estate agents all the way from Monmouth County down to Cape May,” said Mile. “So we just decided to open up a place where they could send their customers, and the people could actually buy the stock right off the floor. We let people come in and buy like builders buy, so we buy everything in truckloads. As a consumer, they’re getting the same purchase power as a local builder who I do 200 houses a year with. That’s what makes it such a good deal for everybody,” he added.
All Floors specializes in wide-plank wood flooring and carries some of the biggest names in the business, including US Floors, Bruce, Mullican and Mirage hardwood flooring; Quick-step, Formica and Mannington laminates; and Mohawk and Shaw carpeting. A range of superior, quality tiles is imported from Italy and Spain, as well as through local Daltile distributors that offer ceramic, porcelain, glass and stone tiles.
“Everything we buy is proven, first-quality flooring, as opposed to home centers and Internet liquidators and chain stores,” Mile emphasized.
Supplies for installation are also available at the location’s 10,000-square-foot warehouse.
All of the store’s products can be purchased with the help of on-staff industry experts.
“The key is, we have very knowledgeable salespeople here,” Mile mentioned. “Other than our junior sales people, who are in training, everybody that works here has been in the business for an excess of 10 years. There’s always a supervisor or senior flooring salesperson on staff.”
