Floor and design business opens a new showroom

Pine Island — Superior Floors Design Studio is celebrating the success with a new showroom at 627 County Route 1 in Pine Island. Although the showroom is new, Paul Gardiner is no new comer to the area or to the flooring industry. A native of the area, and with more than 19 years experience, Gardiner is certified in many different flooring applications. Gardiner, the owner and operator, said, “It is important to me to do quality work and have the client satisfied with their investment, especially since a large percentage of our business is repeat customers and new referrals.” The company offers a variety of flooring applications such as natural unfinished and pre-finished wood, cork, bamboo, laminate, vinyl tile, linoleum, oriental and custom stair runners, and a broad variety of wall to wall carpet and custom area rugs. Gardiner and his fiancee Laura Mignone reside in Warwick with their five children. They decided to expand their business and offer kitchen and bath cabinetry. Mignone has taken courses in kitchen and bath design and computer design, and has worked with two design and building firms. The design studio works with homeowners, contractors, builders, designers and decorators, for both residential and commercial spaces. The showroom is open Tuesday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., or by appointment. Shop at home service is also available. For more information, call 258-1007.
