Why You Should Choose Anderson Hardwood Flooring

1. Anderson Products have been made in America since 1946.


Not long after the end of World War II, L.W. "Andy" Anderson started Standard Plywoods Incorporated. This start up, family owned and run company would live on to become the famed Anderson Floors that we know and love over six decades later. The company has always been based in the Carolinas and has always been a major employer for hard working Americans throughout the many economic ups and downs this country has seen. The company is now a subsidiary of Shaw Industries, but still remains it's independent brand name due to the impecable reputation that it holds among the flooring industry. The company has always been a family business, and still continues to be one with Don Finkell (an Anderson family member) as their CEO. This manufacturer is a shining example of what respectable business in this country used to be, and of what it still can be.

2. Anderson is a leader in sustainable products among the Flooring Industry.


Anderson Floors has been working with the environment, instead of against it, for much longer than just since it became the popular thing to do. They offer beautiful hardwood alternatives like pecan, hickory, oak, and maple, opposed to using illegally harvested exotic woods.  They also carry several hefty, third party certifications such as; 

- Cradle to Cradle Silver Certification

Shaw Residential Carpet FAQs

What makes Shaw residential carpet a good choice for my home?

Shaw is widely regarded as a high-quality carpet manufacturer. Their residential carpets offer a broad selection of styles, textures, and colors, from cozy plush carpets to durable loop and twist styles, which makes it easier to match the carpet to your home’s needs and decor. Additionally, many Shaw carpets include features such as stain-resistance, wear resistance, and pet- or family-friendly options, which make them suitable for everyday living spaces.

How do I maintain and clean Shaw carpet to keep it looking good?

Regular maintenance, like vacuuming and keeping dirt out with entry mats, helps prevent soil and grit from embedding in carpet fibers, which prolongs life and appearance. For spills and stains, act quickly and follow proper stain-removal guidelines. Many Shaw products are engineered to resist stains, but timely care will help maintain that benefit over time. Always review the specific care instructions included in your warranty, as different carpet collections may have slightly different care requirements.

Are there carpet styles that are better for households with pets or children?

Yes. If you have pets, kids, or high foot traffic, choose carpets with stain-resistant fibers, tightly woven construction, and darker or multicolor patterns that are better at hiding wear, dirt, or stains. Certain Shaw collections are particularly well-suited for these conditions. You may want to ask for our recommendations based on your household lifestyle (e.g. pets, kids, frequent guests, etc.).

How long should I expect my carpet to last? When should I consider replacing it?

With proper installation, good padding, and routine maintenance, high-quality residential carpet from Shaw can last many years, often a decade or more depending on use, before deterioration signs of use really begin to show. However, heavy daily traffic, pets, frequent spills, or neglecting cleaning may cause wear, matting, or color fading sooner. It’s wise to inspect carpets periodically: once you notice thinning, persistent stains, or uneven wear, it may be time to replace or re-carpet.
