Buffaloe Floor Covering, Inc. began in 1965 by Glenn and Irene Buffaloe, who worked primarily part time out of their home with Glenn doing carpet shampoo and Irene maintaining the accounting. Soon, Glenn began selling carpet as well as cleaning it. By 1976, Glenn retired from his full time job as a Counselor for the Houston Independent School District to concentrate solely on his flooring business.
He leased space in a strip center on 34th Street in Northwest Houston, and later a warehouse on Shepherd Drive and soon hired his son-in-law, Larry Kristynik, to help in sales. Outgrowing the warehouse space, he decided it was time to purchase the company's first warehouse on Pinemont.

Engineered wood flooring is composed of two or more layers of wood in the form of a plank. The top layer is the wood that is visible when the flooring is installed, and is adhered to the core (or substrate) which provides the stability. Engineered wood is the most common type of wood flooring used globally.

Buffaloe Floor Covering made it easy to go out with the old and in with the new! I gave them an idea of what I was looking for and they were able to find a wood floor for my house that looks fabulous and is made for the dynamics of our household. Several years later, it still looks as good today as it did the day they put it down.

I have known the family at Buffaloe Floor Covering for many, many years. If someone asked me about Buffaloe Flooring, three words come to mind: HONESTY, INTEGRITY AND PROFESSIONAL. Swiff-Train Co. is proud to be a vendor for Buffaloe Flooring and we look forward to continuing our relationship with such an outstanding account.

Buffaloe has done work for me (2 houses), my parents (home and lake house), and several family members. As an insurance agency, we have to be careful of who we recommend to complete work in times of need for our clients. I strongly recommend Buffaloe Floor Covering to friends, family and clients for their great work and ability to get the jobs done correctly and on time.
