Every flooring quote we write carries a little bit of Ryan Davis’s own path into this industry — one that started far from a customer’s living room and took over a decade to lead him back to one, in his own community.
A Business Degree and a First Sales Job
Ryan studied Business Administration at the University of Arkansas, and his first real introduction to flooring came as a sales rep for Mohawk Flooring. That role sent him to Mohawk University in Dalton, Georgia — the heart of the American flooring industry — where he learned the products, the manufacturing side, and the fundamentals of the business from the inside out.
Learning From the Crews, Not Just the Catalog
What set Ryan’s path apart is that he didn’t stop at sales. Over the years that followed, working across residential, commercial, and builder segments nationally, he made a point of learning hands-on from the installation crews themselves — tear-out, subfloor prep, layout, and finish work. That firsthand experience is why an estimate from The Flooring House accounts for the real work involved, not just a catalog price.
Putting Down Roots in Lake Wylie
Ryan lives in Lake Wylie with his wife and their two kids, which is part of why the mission behind The Flooring House feels personal rather than corporate. This isn’t a territory he was assigned — it’s the community he’s raising his family in, and the standard he holds every job to is the one he’d want in his own house.
Opening The Flooring House
On July 11, 2024, Ryan opened The Flooring House with a simple idea: take the mobile-showroom model — real samples, brought to the customer, with honest pricing and no pressure — and build a family-owned business around it in York County. No warehouse showroom, no sales quotas, just a team that shows up, measures carefully, and installs it right.
