About Floors Unlimited

Our staff offers years of real-world flooring experience and knowledge not often found in the large national chain stores. I’ve personally lived my entire adult life in the Chesapeake / Virginia Beach area and all of that time spent in the flooring business. I’ve been in many different style homes and been a part of every flooring project you can imagine. Not much surprises me anymore and that’s important when estimating the products and labor for your home.

Brothers Phil and Don were born and raised in Washington, NC, and moved to Norfolk in their teen years in search of work. Working separately they learned the flooring business and in 1972 Phil Woolard opened the doors to Floors Unlimited. It was a tough go during the early years with a slow economy but Phil was willing to work installing by himself if necessary and wife Doodlebug would come in to run the store while he was out.

A few years later his older brother Don joined him and together they became a great team. Don was good working with the customers and Phil had a knack for running the crews every day and problem-solving on the job site. During the '80s, work was plentiful around Great Bridge, and Floors Unlimited became a very popular location for builders and retail customers. Phil and Don were very traditional men with honest values to guide their principles and thus gained the trust and loyalty of customers and builders alike.

Phil’s son, Phil Jr., followed in his dad’s footsteps and trained in the installation during the '80s. After Don retired in the early 90’s Phil Jr. was brought into the front office to learn how to sell flooring and run the business. Years later Phil Sr. and wife Doodlebug retired and today Phil Jr. proudly operates the company with his wife Amy in the same fine tradition that made Floors Unlimited what it is today.

What the big stores lack is personal service and expertise. We know our products very well and will help you find the right product to fit your budget. All our jobs are managed from this one location under my supervision. I’m here each day ready to meet you and resolve any issues that may arise. You are not likely to meet the owner at a chain store. That’s why I say “Buy Local From A Trusted Source. Meet The Owner”.
