Leicester Flooring’s Hendersonville showroom has been serving Henderson County families, builders, and business owners with quality flooring and professional installation for over 50 years. Located at 1229 7th Ave E, just 0.2 miles from the William H. King Memorial Park, our showroom puts hundreds of American-made flooring samples at your fingertips.
We carry carpet, hardwood, luxury vinyl plank and tile, laminate, and ceramic and porcelain tile from American brands including Shaw, Mohawk, Mannington, Anderson Tuftex, Armstrong, Somerset, Mullican, Bruce, and Hearthwood.
What makes Leicester Flooring different from the national chains? It starts with our non-commission sales team, continues with experienced installers who have worked with our family for years, and it is backed by a lifetime installation warranty. That combination, what we call the “Leicester Difference,” is why builders and homeowners across Henderson County keep coming back.
Flooring Options at Our Hendersonville Showroom
Our Hendersonville showroom carries the full range of flooring types available across the Leicester Flooring family. Every product we sell is American-made, a commitment that has defined our company since J.B. and Alma Snelson founded it in 1971.
Carpet
Carpet provides warmth, comfort, and sound absorption that other flooring types cannot match. According to the Carpet and Rug Institute, today’s carpet fibers offer built-in stain and soil resistance that makes maintenance simpler for active families (CRI, 2024).
Our Hendersonville showroom features carpet from Shaw, Anderson Tuftex, Karastan, Mohawk, Dreamweaver, Dixie, Maslan, Phenix, and Fabrica. Browse plush, textured, patterned, and loop styles in dozens of colors to find the right fit for your bedrooms, family rooms, and living spaces.
Every carpet installation we perform includes the option for our turnkey service. We move your furniture, remove and dispose of old flooring, prepare the subfloor, install your new carpet, and place everything back. When our crew leaves, your room is ready to enjoy.
Hardwood
Hardwood floors add natural beauty and long-term value to any home. The National Association of Realtors consistently ranks hardwood flooring as one of the highest-ROI home improvements (NAR, 2024). With proper care, a hardwood floor can last 50 years or more and be refinished multiple times to refresh its appearance.
We carry solid and engineered hardwood in oak, hickory, maple, birch, walnut, and other species from Shaw, Somerset, Mullican, Mohawk, Mannington, Homerwood, Bruce, and Hearthwood. Our team will help you understand how the Janka hardness scale works and which species perform best for your household traffic levels.
Henderson County’s climate includes seasonal humidity shifts between summer and winter. Our hardwood installation team follows NWFA acclimation and moisture testing standards to protect your investment from the warping, gapping, or cupping that improper installation can cause.
Luxury Vinyl
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) offer the realistic look of wood or stone with 100% waterproof protection. Floor Covering Weekly reported that resilient vinyl became the largest flooring category in the U.S. market in 2024 (Floor Covering Weekly, 2024), and the growth continues as manufacturers improve print quality, texture realism, and wear layer durability.
Products like COREtec from Shaw feature patented waterproof cores, pre-attached cork underlayment for comfort and sound reduction, and GREENGUARD Gold certification for indoor air quality. Our Hendersonville showroom carries luxury vinyl from Shaw, Mohawk, Mannington, Armstrong, and Karastan.
Luxury vinyl works in every room of your home, including kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms. If you have questions about how luxury vinyl compares to hardwood or laminate, our team can set products side by side and help you make an informed decision.
Laminate
Laminate flooring provides the visual appeal of hardwood with strong scratch resistance and budget-friendly pricing. Modern laminate from Shaw, Mohawk, Mannington, and Quick-Step features waterproof cores, embossed-in-register textures that mimic real wood grain, and AC4 or AC5 durability ratings designed for heavy household traffic.
Laminate installs as a floating floor using a tongue-and-groove click-lock system, which means no adhesives, nails, or staples. That makes laminate installation 30 to 50% faster than other flooring types, reducing disruption to your household.
Tile
Tile flooring delivers exceptional durability, water resistance, and design versatility. Ceramic and porcelain tile are popular choices for bathrooms, kitchens, entryways, mudrooms, and outdoor areas. Porcelain tile, which contains feldspar in addition to clay, achieves extreme hardness that exceeds traditional ceramic tile.
Our Hendersonville showroom carries tile from Mohawk, Shaw, and Emser in a wide range of colors, sizes, and patterns. From large-format porcelain to decorative hand-painted looks, our selection gives you options for every design vision. Our professional tile installers handle the mortar, cutting, and grouting that quality tile work requires.
