Who Are We and Where Do We Serve?

Our legacy of exceptional service began back in 1932. Even during the Great Depression, our founder, Fred Lipp, opened our doors with a vision to help families bring beauty and comfort into their homes during challenging times. Over the decades, we have evolved, weathered adversity—including rebuilding stronger after a major fire in 1941—and continued to grow.

In 1969, the second generation stepped up when Fred’s son, Stan Lipp, took the helm. That same year, we proudly joined the Carpet One Floor & Home cooperative, empowering us to offer our customers unparalleled selections and value. By the 1980s, Stephen Lipp led us into our third generation of family ownership. Today, we stand as one of the most established and trusted family-owned businesses in the region.

We proudly serve Fort Wayne and the surrounding Indiana communities. From bustling city neighborhoods to the quiet, tree-lined streets of Leo-Cedarville, we deliver exceptional flooring solutions directly to your door.

What Premium Flooring Options Do We Offer?

Living in Indiana means navigating a climate of extremes—from hot, humid summers to wet, snowy winters that track salt and slush indoors. You need flooring that is as resilient as it is beautiful. We offer a comprehensive portfolio of materials, styles, and elite brands to meet your specific needs.

Hardwood: A timeless, elegant choice that perfectly complements the historic homes of Fort Wayne. Hardwood offers unmatched strength and significantly elevates your home's value.
Luxury Vinyl: Beautiful and incredibly practical, luxury vinyl perfectly mimics natural wood or stone while offering complete waterproof protection. It is the ideal defense against snowy winter boots and summer mud.

Laminate: Highly durable and scratch-resistant, laminate is the ultimate choice for active households with children and energetic pets.
