Silmar Flooring INC

Silmar Flooring INC runs a flooring contractor business out of Pleasanton with a showroom stocked in carpet, tile, laminate, wood and other samples. The company handles residential installs like hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, waterproof vinyl and carpet along with commercial work across industries and hospitality spaces. Chris and Dave Silmar lead the operation and cover full services from selection through installation for both homes and businesses. Their Google listing lists them under flooring contractor plus carpet store, flooring store, rug store and wood floor installation service, with an address on Valley Ave.

Homeowners call on them for tile removal followed by hardwood replacement, whole-house carpet jobs, water-damaged floor fixes with new wood, and waterproof vinyl plank installs that include baseboard removal, replacement and painting. One project added a custom trap door and finished stairs with precise trim work. Other jobs covered subfloor prep, dance floor installs and repeated carpeting or vinyl work in the same homes over decades. Reviewers note the team handled everything from chain-store alternatives to tricky pattern matches while keeping the work on schedule.

The crew shows up on time, stays clean during installs and keeps communication direct about product pros and cons without pressure toward any one style. Pricing stays within the budget discussed upfront, and the selection in the showroom avoids feeling overwhelming. Service reaches Pleasanton and nearby spots like Livermore, with the family-owned shop open for consultations on residential, commercial and hospitality flooring. Installers earn repeated mentions for being professional, polite and neat on every type of job from carpet pads to engineered hardwood.

Google lists a 5 rating though with zero reviews posted there. The provided customer feedback highlights consistent themes of quality flooring choices, skilled installation teams, work completed on time and within budget, and solid results on both simple carpet jobs and more involved hardwood or vinyl replacements.

“A great and honest business that does great work, has a nice selection and are a pleasure to work with. This is our second house we’ve used Silmar for. They removed all of the old tile and replaced with beautiful hardwood. The job was done on time and with the budget promised. Would definitely use again!”

“They had a great selection of products without being overwhelming. Very straightforward with pros and cons and di not try to sell us on a specific style or color. Their experience in flooring was obvious and the installers were very professional, polite, and clean. We definitely got what we paid for...Quality.”

“We had a great experience getting new carpets from Silmar Flooring. We had spent a lot of time shopping the chain stores in the area but we couldn’t find the pattern or color we were looking for. Silmar has a nice selection and Chris and his staff were a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable and was extremely patient with us as we took a lot of time in choosing the right color. His advice on which carpet pad to choose was just perfect. Their installation team did an outstanding job, very professional, neat and on time. We are very happy with our new carpets and would highly recommend Silmar Flooring.”

“After a disappointing experience with another contractor, we turned to Silmar Flooring to replace our water-damaged floors. Chris was very patient and attentive in helping us find the wood flooring that fit both our vision and budget. The installation team did an excellent job laying the new floors - they were meticulous, skilled, and completed the work on schedule. We are extremely satisfied with the beautiful new floors and deeply appreciate the outstanding customer service from the entire Silmar team. We would highly recommend Silmar Flooring to anyone looking for quality flooring installations and a great overall experience.”

“We had the entire home's floor done with Cortona Plus waterproof vinyl planks and it looks beautiful! It was convenient that they were able to remove, replace, and paint all the baseboards and they did an amazing job customizing a "trap door" that leads to under the house. I was concerned about how the stairs would turn out, but it looks fantastic! The final touches such as the trims were all done with precision--sometimes this is where the workmanship gets sloppy--but this is where you can tell that Silmar knows what they are doing! The team showed up on time and completed the job in about a week. We did however have separation of some planks after a few months, but they came out right away to assess and fix the problem. It turns out there was a defect of the product but they were dedicated in resolving the problem and have guaranteed that they will continue to take care of things if any more problems arise in the future. Working with a local family- owned business where everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and responsive has been a much more positive experience than working with any chain store we have dealt with in the past!”

“I reached out to Silmar Flooring and got contacted back by Christopher. After I explained what I was looking for and why, he gave some great advice which I followed. While we had to stick with our original floor installer due to the manufacturer's request, I am so appreciative of Silmar Flooring and will definitely consider them in the future for my flooring needs.”

“Chris and Silmar provided amazing support during our search for wood flooring. Pricing met our budget, project was smooth and looks amazing! We will be back for more work when ready to do the upstairs. Appreciate having a contractor I can trust. Thanks”

“Dave Silmar and team have installed subfloors, dance floors and carpeting in our Dance Studio. They are hard working, easy to work with and they deliver quality flooring and workmanship. Our new professional marley dance floor is outstanding.”

“This a very well established family owned business that provides all aspects of floor coverings. We have had our home carpeted several times over the past 30 plus years , had vinyl installed in several areas and wood flooring in the family room. Everything was better that expected.”

“The showroom is not too overwhelming. Everyone is so nice and professional. My floors look amazing. Love that is a family owned business. Very impressed.”

“This business is amazing. Everyone from the floor installers to the one who gives the quote. Had carpet installed and it looks great. Thanks Silmar.”
