For over 40 years USA Flooring has serviced the homes and businesses of North Carolina. For two generations we have lived, worked, and raised our families here. North Carolina is our home.

Established In 1972

USA Flooring opened in the early 1970s as a full-service flooring store in Frederick, Maryland, operating then as Ken Lloyd’s Carpet Towne. In 1984, Mr. Lloyd opened locations in both Raleigh and Fayetteville. These two stores operated as flooring outlets that provided a large selection of in-stock flooring. But Mr. Lloyd soon learned his customers wanted a broader flooring selection and an option for a quality installation. He bridged the concepts of a flooring outlet with that of a full-service retail store. This began the concept of providing customers an opportunity to find quality flooring and installation at discount pricing.
