Our Storied History

1938

Our story begins. With a vision and mission, St. Paul Linoleum & Carpet Co. opens for business.

1951

The spirit of continuous improvement. We completely remodel our flagship store, on University Ave. in St. Paul, to improve customer experience and create room for future growth.

1954

Making our mark. Our first high-profile, large-scale project is complete - The Mayo Memorial Building on the University of Minnesota campus.

1956

Growth continues. Five years after our first store's renovation, we outgrow it and move to a new location up the road and in the heart of St. Paul's vibrant service-business district at 1505 University Ave.

1969

Rising from the ashes. A 4-alarm fire destroys our 3-story, 30,000 sq. ft. warehouse at 879 Hersey Street in St. Paul. We recover, learn, and grow.

1972

A crowning achievement. We underscore the historic State Capitol renovation with rich carpet reproductions using the latest installation methods to date in the House, Senate, and Judicial chambers.

1985

A hub for commerce. We showcase our capabilities, products, and ingenuity at the grand re-opening of our newly remodeled store on University Ave.

1988

A major project milestone and success story. We complete the 24-story, 100+ phase Pillsbury Corporate Headquarters renovation project.

1996

Moving with the times. We shift our operations to Eagan, MN to better serve the rapidly expanding twin cities metro area.

2003

Modern flooring for high tech. We lay 124,000 sq. ft. of flooring in 5 buildings for the new, highly anticipated Best Buy Corporate Campus.

2005

In with the new. We complete a prestigious flooring project as the historic Guthrie Theater moves to its new location.

2008

Go Gophers! We finish work on the Huntington Bank Stadium, formerly TCF Bank Stadium, home of the U of M Golden Gophers.

2009

Play ball! We wrap up work for Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins.

2018

Helping the best play their best. We conclude a multifaceted project for the all-new Twin Cities Orthopedics Performance Center, the official training facility of the Minnesota Vikings.

2022

The saga continues. We stay ahead of the technology curve and provide excellent user experiences with an informative new website.
