Why Established Flooring Companies are Redesigning Their Websites in 2026

For decades, being a well-known flooring company with a strong reputation was enough to stay busy. Referrals, repeat customers, and word of mouth carried the load.

That’s no longer the case.

Today, most homeowners start their flooring search online.

• They compare companies before making a call.
• They read reviews.
• They judge credibility by what they see on a website and in Google search results.

And if a flooring business doesn’t show up—or doesn’t look current—they move on quickly.

This shift is why many established flooring companies are redesigning their digital presence to stay competitive and continue growing.

The New Reality for Flooring Businesses

Experience still matters. Craftsmanship still matters. But visibility now plays a critical role in growth.

Homeowners expect:

• A website that clearly explains flooring options and services
• Strong local visibility when searching for flooring near them
• Proof that the business is active, responsive, and trustworthy

An outdated website or underperforming Google presence doesn’t just slow growth. It quietly limits it.
