From the diary of a family-owned flooring business


Hello, friends and neighbors! Roy Felix here from Felix Flooring & Co. As you walk through our doors today, you see a vibrant showroom filled with the latest in flooring, a dedicated team, and a family-focused atmosphere. What you might not see, however, is the journey that brought us to this exciting new chapter. It's a story of change, a renewed vision, and the enduring strength of family.

 

For many years, this store, then known as Hardwood Floors Outlet, was a partnership. My business partner and I poured our hearts and souls into building it. We shared many successes, navigated challenges, and learned invaluable lessons about this industry and serving our community. It was a productive and formative time, and I cherish many of those experiences.

 

However, as businesses evolve, so do individual paths. Eventually, my partner and I realized that our visions for the future of the company were diverging. After much thoughtful discussion and mutual respect, we made the decision to part ways. My partner moved on to pursue other ventures, and I found myself ready to finally pursue my dream of passing on my legacy to my family.

 

A Fresh Start, Rooted in Family

 

The moment my partner departed, I invited my son and daughter to start fresh and open this location under a new name, Felix Flooring & Co. This business, this industry, and this community are not just where I work; they are integral parts of my life. More importantly, my family has always been a quiet, yet powerful, force behind everything I do. I have been in the same building in beautiful Murrieta, CA for over 25 years.

 

It was time to rebrand, to infuse every aspect of the business with the values that mean the most to me: integrity, personalized service, and the unwavering commitment that only family can provide. And so, we officially reopened under new ownership in July of 2022

 

Let me tell you about us


  • My son, Royce Felix has followed in my footsteps. For the past 18 years, my son has been in the flooring industry. He started out helping me on side jobs and later began his own prosperous installation business. He has installed many homes in this community and when we reopened as Felix Flooring & Co, he is now in charge of production and installation. He knows almost everything there is to know about the flooring business and he loves answering and supporting anything regarding install.
  • My daughter, Riana Felix has been in the industry for over 7 years. Riana had previously had a background in special education teaching when I decided to rebrand my As a very close-knit family, we spoke about the new venture and we three decided it was time to grow roots in this community. Riana handles the financials, marketing and design portion of our company. If you are in need of product advice, financial questions or design ideas, she is the one to speak with.
  • I, Roy, have been in the flooring business for almost 40 years. I started my career installing carpet in my early twenties and have never left the industry since. I have a passion for honesty and transparency. I am eager to help my community with knowledge, respect and quality. You can imagine there is not much I have not seen being in this industry for this I believe that an informed customer is the best policy. There are many factors to flooring products and install and it brings me joy to support anyone looking for knowledge on their project.
