PAYTON BLACK, KIM BLACK — DESIGNER’S TOUCH FLOORING

September 3, 2024

A full-service, boutique-style flooring company, Designer’s Touch Flooring has evolved under the leadership of president and founder Kim Black since 2000. Whether creating a custom wood floor or helping clients select a factory-finished wood floor, Designer’s Touch Flooring has built its reputation on being wood floor specialists at its 3,000-square-foot showroom. It also offers luxury vinyl plank, waterproof laminate, area rugs, and carpet, as well as a floor maintenance division. Her team of well-trained specialists is happy to tackle projects large or small, simple or complex. With a background in accounting and advertising, Black was inspired by her Uncle Tom, who was in the flooring industry for 50 years, to launch her business. And it is a family affair—Black’s husband Rick and son Payton have long been integral to the company’s success. Black says their motto is: The only way to do great work is to love what you do. “We are here to understand the client and their needs and desires,” she explains. “Then we educate the client and help them make the best decision. Our mission is to provide a friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere with a team that truly cares about our clients and the services we provide.”
