"We believe people come to us because we listen. That’s always first. Then, we treat them fairly, respectfully and we suggest what’s best for them — not what we have on sale that week.

Vinyl floors can add a dash of color and pattern to kitchens and bathrooms in a durable material that resists tears and stains. In fact, thanks to manufacturing advancements, vinyl floors can now be made to look and feel like real ceramic tile, stone and wood grain.
LINOLEUM

Many Straus Carpets customers turn to linoleum because of the wide variety of colors and patterns available. Plus, linoleum is one of the greenest floors manufactured today, since it is made from natural materials like linseed oil, limestone and cork dust and then mounted on jute backing.
AREA RUGS

Area rugs are a great way to accent a room with a splash of vibrancy or interesting pattern. The showroom at Straus Carpets’ headquarters is well stocked with hundreds of area rugs, whether you’re looking for a hallway runner, kitchen or bathroom area rug or a large rug for a great room.
