The Man Behind the Store

Over the years, Jim Roy has established a credible name in the area, one floor at a time. He’s usually the one you’ll meet when you walk into our showroom, and he does the measuring, writes the quote, and stands behind the crew that lays it.

His reputation extends well beyond the store. Since the attacks of 9/11, Jim has donated the American flags that fly on every pole throughout downtown La Porte each year, while supporting many other groups in the community.

Our History

1986 — The Floor Store Opens

Jim Roy opened The Floor Store on July 7, 1986, on Monroe Street in La Porte, Indiana, with a focus on quality flooring, dependable installation, and personal service.

Growing with La Porte

As word spread and the business grew, The Floor Store outgrew its original location. A new store was built on Boyd Boulevard, creating more showroom space and allowing for a wider selection of flooring and in-stock products.

5M+ Square Feet Installed

Over the decades, The Floor Store has installed more than five million square feet of flooring in homes and businesses throughout the area.

Today — Still Family Owned

Nearly four decades later, The Floor Store is still run by the same family, serving La Porte County with the experience and local service the business was built on.
