Short Business Description In 2002, local owners David Turner and Chip Hooper set out with a vision to create a better way to bring quality flooring to the public. The two long time flooring executives recognized that the only choices people had to purchase flooring was through home centers, traditional retailers or salvage stores. They realized there had to be a better way to purchase first quality, name brand flooring without the added retail expenses. In 2004, Turner and Hoopers vision became a reality when Buy Floors Direct opened the doors to its first warehouse store in Antioch, TN.
