About Bill:
Bill’s experience as a carpet installer sets him apart from the typical retail flooring Sales Manager. He is wise and knowledgeable, and generous with his time. He knows the flooring industry from every angle, and is able to predict and control for any potential complications that may arise on a job.
My dad was a flooring installer for 35 years, so in high school I would go out on jobs with him: helped strip pad, and seamed, stretched carpet. I installed carpet to put myself through college, and after I graduated, I was given the opportunity to try my hand on the sales floor for one week. If I wasn’t successful, they’d send me back to installing; I had a very good week…
In 2015, I moved to Houston and shortly thereafter began working at Roberts Carpet & Fine Floors. After two years on the sales floor, I emailed Sam Roberts (founder of Roberts Carpet) a list of frustrations. He called me instantly, scheduled a meeting for that Monday and abruptly hung up. I expected to get fired; Instead, he promoted me to Sales Manager.
What do you love about being a part of the flooring industry?
I love the relationships I build with the clients and training our sales staff to build those relationships as well. I'm not here to sell; I'm here to help. I help put the person with the product that meets their needs. Whether it is hitting a certain price point, or offering additional service, we’ll find the product that is the right fit. And no one outside of Roberts Carpet & Fine Floors can offer the same value in craftsmanship in the Houston Area.
Money is no object. What floors do you put in your home?
My wife would go with Advanced COREtec Plus (SPC Luxury Vinyl Plank), in a brown/grey tone. We have 2 dogs.
