Owner Thomasquality a lifelong resident service Faber, six instructors, The Drawing of Midland Park, has been in the flooring business for over 20 years now, and if there is one thing that hasn’t changed is his dedication to bringing his clients the best service possible. Tom has recently turned his business back into a mobile shop-at-home service. “You can say that I’ve gone back to my roots,” says Tom. “I think we have all experienced it. You go out to look at different samples in a showroom, and by the time you bring them home, they look completely different. I have found that my clients would rather shop from the comfort of their own homes or offices, in the lighting and the atmosphere of the Thomas Faber room(s) they are decorating. Not only is this convenient for my clients, but it also allows me to do what I enjoy the most, which is helping out with the different shades and colors of flooring and being there to answer any questions that might come up. There is really nothing like the shop-at-home experience”. Barefoot Carpet & Flooring carries a wide variety of flooring, which includes carpet, vinyl, laminate, luxury vinyl tile and hardwood.
