About Your Flooring Warehouse
Founded in 1988 by J.D. Manning, our company started with a bold but simple philosophy: high volume, low margin, low overhead, and no nonsense. That straightforward approach struck a chord with customers and grew our business into one of the top ten independent flooring retailers in the entire Southeast.
Today, we proudly operate three massive warehouse stores in Saint Petersburg, Tampa, and New Port Richey—each packed with millions of square feet of carpet, hardwood, laminate, and tile purchased by the truckload from premier manufacturers. Our newest store, Your Flooring Warehouse, marks our first venture into the Sarasota/Bradenton market.
This location was built on deep research into how people really shop for flooring and what they actually want: honesty, speed, value, and an easier way to buy. That’s why when you visit us, you’ll find name-brand flooring at warehouse pricing, a straightforward process, and a friendly team (including our four-legged greeters, Biscuit the Lab and John Wick the Aussie Shepherd).

Customer Reviews
Phil Shults
Just had the Luxury Vinyl Plank installed by Absolute Flooring. Tom Schneider and his crew were on time when scheduled. The job turned out absolutely beautiful. The material supplied by Flooring Warehouse was top line. And Tom did a first class job installing it. Thanks Tom and Tyler with Flooring Warehouse.

Your Flooring Warehouse was recommended by our remodeling company as an excellent source for flooring products. Toby was very helpful and provided a wealth of information on LVP, including product selection and pricing. We purchased the Cortec brand and Tom Schneider and his team did the installation. We are very satisfied with our floor, not only with the LVP product, but also the installation.

Toby was our salesman at your Flooring warehouse and he was wonderful to work with and patient with us while making our decision. We chose Luxury vinyl and it was installed this week by Tom Schneider of Absolute Flooring. He arranged for a professional crew to remove our damaged wood floor, and then he and his partner moved in to lay down our new floor which required a lot of TLC because of moisture coming through cracks in the concrete. They also installed new baseboards. The installation moved along in a timely manner, and we were very pleased with the work. We would definitely recommend Tom for your floor installation.
