How long have you been in business?
A combined 30 Yrs., 2 years at current location in San Marcos.
What does your business do?
We are a one-stop shop for full home renovations.
What services and/or specialty products do you provide?
We offer flooring, cabinets, countertops, furniture, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and home décor. We also provide in-home designers for clients who need help putting their ideas together.
What sets you apart from others in your industry?
What sets us apart is the level of care and attention we bring to every project. We don’t just install flooring or remodel kitchens—we help clients improve their living spaces in ways that truly reflect their style and needs. Many companies can complete the work, but we focus on doing it right, with quality materials, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to making the process smooth and stress-free. We treat each home like it’s our own, and that personal touch is something clients can truly feel and appreciate.
What is your favorite business success story?
I would like to share my own. I came to California with very little money and a dream of being successful. I started as a helper, learning a trade that I fell in love with. I mastered it, and now I own my own business and have a new dream—to continue growing my business, make my clients happy, and help as many people as I can along the way.
What motivated you to join The San Marcos Chamber?
We joined because we wanted to be involved with both local businesses and the community and contribute to its growth. This was a great way to connect with others and be part of something positive. I think the Chamber is an excellent way to achieve that.
What's your best piece of business advice?
Dream big and never stop chasing those dreams.
