Sergenian's Floor Coverings
Sergenian’s Floor Coverings is a fourth-generation, family-owned flooring company, with current leadership and emerging leaders drawn from the third and fourth generations of the Sergenian family. Nearly 100 years after Ara Sergenian opened the original Monroe Street shop in 1930, the business continues to highlight its fourth-generation team as a core part of its identity and long-term commitment to the Madison community.
Purpose
At Sergenian’s Floor Coverings, our purpose is to deliver quality flooring solutions with exceptional service while strengthening communities and sustaining our environment for generations to come. Founded in 1930 as a family-owned business, we serve residential and commercial clients across Wisconsin and Florida, prioritizing craftsmanship, on-time delivery, and the highest installation standards.
This purpose drives our pioneering sustainability efforts, including Wisconsin’s first carpet reclamation program launched in 2007, which has diverted over 25 million pounds of carpet from landfills. We partner with clients on LEED-certified projects, recycle materials into new products, and guarantee no removed carpet ends up in landfills.
Rooted in family values, our purpose honors 95 years of innovation—from oriental rugs to modern hardwood, vinyl, and tile; while treating customers and team members with integrity and care.
