Fifty years ago, our father, Earl Franks, opened a small paint shop here in Covington, KY. At that time, Covington, right across the Ohio River from Cincinnati, was a thriving middle-class city. In addition to paint, dad sold wallpaper and flooring. In those days there were not the plethora of choices we have now, so it was possible to stock a big selection right here in the store.
Dad was smart. He soon realized that if he specialized in just one thing, he could corner the market and become the area's go-to retailer. That's when he decided to eliminate the paint and wallpaper and focus strictly on flooring. Today seven of us share ownership of the business. As our customer, you'll be served by at least one Franks family member during the selection, planning, and installation of your new floor.

It's one thing to choose beautiful new flooring material for your home or commercial project. It's another thing for it to be installed properly. Check the Internet and you'll find that the most frequent complaints about having new flooring installed is just that-the installation. Unfortunately, many flooring retailers provide great service while you're in the store, and horrible service once you've placed your order.

Prompt, friendly, experienced, knowledgable, local to me. Overall great experience. No work was done but they explained that I needed a GC before they could perform any work. I liked how they were upfront and discovered things that needed to be addressed. We will find a way to do business with this company in the future. Thanks Earl Franks and Sons for the honesty.
