From Side Hustle to Flooring Experts: Our Story

Back in 2010, our founder was a college student juggling a full-time job and a mountain of textbooks.
Sound familiar? He knew something had to give. So, he took a leap of faith, ditched the 9-to-5, and dove headfirst into his studies… and into the world of hardwood floors.

What started as a way to pay the bills quickly turned into a passion. Each refinished floor, each perfectly laid plank, sparked a sense of pride and accomplishment. And people noticed. Friends, family, and neighbors raved about their beautiful new floors, and soon, the calls started pouring in.

Fast-forward to today, and Functional Floors is a team of passionate flooring experts who still get a thrill out of transforming spaces. We’ve grown a lot since those early days—we now have 19 crews, a bustling office, and a 5,000-square-foot showroom in Livonia—but our core values remain the same:

• Craftsmanship that wows: We’re obsessed with the details, from selecting the perfect wood grain to ensuring a flawless finish.
• Customer service that makes you smile: We treat every project like it’s our own home, and
  we’ll go the extra mile to make sure you’re thrilled with the results.
• Expertise you can trust: With specializations in hardwood, vinyl, and laminate, we have the
  knowledge to guide you through every step of the process.
