Hardwood Floors in Living Room

Sally Periwinkle — Mon, 07 May 2012 21:13:57 +0000

These are the “After” photos of a beautiful hardwood floor job we recently completed for some lovely customers in The Woodlands. They wanted to update their home from carpet to wood. They were thrilled with the end result! They were quite impressed with their installers’ professionalism and their wonderful workmanship. We also carpeted their stairs in a beautiful pattern piece. After the installation was complete and after adding a few new pieces of furniture, their entire downstairs was transformed!

This hardwood floor update not only added beauty to their home, but it also increased the value of their home!

If you are interested in adding value to your home or making a transformation for one or more rooms like this family accomplished, visit our Flaherty’s Flooring America website, or better yet, come see one of our showrooms to check out our huge selection of beautiful hardwood floors!

Stairs Makeover – Patterned Carpet

Sally Periwinkle — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 14:39:52 +0000

We recently had a fun customer who wanted to make a big change to her stairs. She was bored with her off-white, monochromatic, worn down carpet.

See her BEFORE photo below!

So, she opted for a bold, multi-colored, patterned carpet and wood landings!! What a difference this makes!

See AFTER photos below!

Another AFTER photo from a different view.

Christmas Floors – Melissa AFTER

Remember meeting Melissa? We are thrilled to show you her “AFTER” photos of her new floors!!

With the help of suppliers, we were able to provide new tile for her kitchen, dining room, entryway and guest bath – AND new carpet in her son’s room!

This was such a deserving family!! Take a look at her beautiful new floors!

Ellen D. (on the right), who so lovingly nominated Melissa for the new floors, also showed up to take a look at the new floors. Her letter touched all of us at Flaherty’s Flooring. What a great picture of sweet friends!

Melissa and family, thank you so much for allowing us into your home and for sharing your story with us. We hope you enjoy your new floors, and each day that you walk on them, remember that you are loved!!

Woodlands Home – Custom Tile Fireplace

Sally Periwinkle — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 15:33:57 +0000

Our third and final project we did for this lovely Woodlands home was a custom tile fireplace. Needless to say, these customers have become huge fans of our company, and we were so honored to help enhance the beauty of their home.

The mosaic of smaller tiles create a bold statement while still complimenting the beautiful hardwood floors and warm, neutral paint.

Take a look!

If you would be interested in creating a look similar to this in your own home, come visit us at one of our showrooms!

Woodlands Home – Custom Tile Inset

Sally Periwinkle — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 14:39:20 +0000

These photos are from another project for the same customer’s home from yesterday’s post. This customer had beautiful hardwood floors throughout most of the bottom floor. Together, we came up with this idea for the entryway.

Basically, this inset gives the effect of a rug. We were able to create distinct areas and provide a combination of textures.

Take a look!!

Interested in doing something like this in your home? Come by one of our two showrooms today and check out our beautiful selection of tile, stone, and hardwood!

Woodlands Home – Patterned Carpet Stairway

Sally Periwinkle — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 16:55:08 +0000

A wonderful customer in The Woodlands graciously allowed us into her home to show off three beautiful projects we recently completed. The project we want to share today is her beautiful, patterned carpet stairway. This is a project that a lot of people might want to consider something like this, but may not know exactly what it would look like in their home. Yes, it’s a bold statement, but it also creates a surprising flow.

Take a look!!

If you are interested in putting a patterned carpet somewhere in your home, come into one of our showrooms – in Cypress or The Woodlands!

Patrick Visits Adam Elementary

A few days ago, Patrick visited Adam Elementary – another elementary school we sponsored for their field trip to the science museum. SO many children wore their t-shirts so they could be in the photo and meet “Mr. Flaherty!”

This precious girl below loved Mr. Flaherty and was full of stories for him from the field trip!

Below, a photo with the fabulous principal, Ms. May, the amazing first grade teachers, and a handful of the first grade students pose with Patrick and the big check!

Below, Patrick feels a bit outnumbered but is loving it!!

A big group photo with everyone wearing their field trip shirts!

Below, a close-up of the photo above. Prepare to smile

How can you not smile when you look at this last image?? What sweet faces!

Thanks again, Adam Elementary, for allowing us the opportunity to sponsor your field trip as well as making this visit with Patrick such a fun experience!!

Patrick Visits Millsap Elementary

Sally Periwinkle — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 16:42:48 +0000

We are making the rounds to our five favorite schools! Here we are at Millsap Elementary! Our relationship with them started last year when they were the first and only school we sponsored on their field trip. We are blessed to have been able to greatly expand our impact this year!

Featured below: Patrick Flaherty with the amazing first grade teaching team! They are standing in front of a butterfly garden which we also helped sponsor last year!

Thanks for all you do, Millsap Elementary, for our kids and for all you’ve done to have helped make this year’s field trips be such a huge success!
