History
The company was started back in 1954 by two Italian brothers. The company originally started out as a commercial concrete contractor, evolving over the years, eventually leading to the opening of a retail division in the early 70s: B&N Flooring!
The brothers were the first around the Maritimes to have a ceramic tile retail outlet and essentially pioneered the residential tile business.
The company had great success over the years led by the Italian brothers and their children until 2012. It was at this time that three loyal, experienced employees purchased and took over the companies.
Products and styles have changed over time but for owners Corey Childs, Rob Hollett, and Trevor Mercuri, one thing has never changed: the values instilled in them by the previous owners.
Their values continue to be a combination for a successful company:
deliver a quality project on time and on budget
treat customers and their team with respect
