Floor Stores Franchising
Your Opportunity
Compared to other franchise operations, your initial entry cost into the Carpet Call or Solomons Flooring franchise system is extremely low.
This allows franchisees to maintain their capital for other important aspects of the business – positive cash flow, adequate working capital, store set up, signage, local promotion and advertising.
From as little as $120,000* you can open your very own, brand new store and hit the ground running on the path to financial independence. (*not including working capital, rental bonds etc.)
We offer greenfield locations where franchisees can open stores in brand new areas, in new premises, and start building their new flooring store – with full support!
“Choosing Solomons Flooring was the best decision I ever made. I always dreamed of having my own business, but I was intimidated by the whole process of getting suppliers, getting a warehouse and all these kinds of things. However Solomons Flooring made all this a possibility and a breeze as well. They already have all the top suppliers on board, they have a state of the art warehouse, filled with staff that I’m given direct access to as a franchisee. With all these facilities, I get to focus on my business and customers and build my dream. Thank you Solomons!”

The Modular ‘Floor Stores’ Franchising Program
We also offer a fantastic modular franchising program which allows existing, like-minded businesses such as tile stores, window furnishing stores and home furniture businesses to add one of our stores to their existing business. This gives the existing business more diversity to encourage new customers inside their doors who may also purchase something from the original business. It’s a truly win-win scenario!
We already have a big network of dual branded businesses around the country. Join the likes of National Tiles/Solomons Flooring in Mt Gambier, Ballarat, Warrnambool and Traralgon or National Tiles/Carpet Call in Bendigo, Townsville, Toowoomba and Shepparton or Beaumont Tiles/Solomons Flooring in Geelong and Caboolture. Or do like some independent tile store owners have done that have added a Solomons or Carpet Call to their independent tile businesses like Riverina Terrazzo/Carpet Call Wagga and Volare Tile Concepts/Carpet Call Geelong and Tile Mart/Solomons Flooring in Bentleigh.
These savvy business owners understand the importance of having more products available to sell to potential customers and have the entire flooring market covered! We know that ceramic tile sales have been diminishing over the last few years with more and more customers choosing to only use tiles in bathrooms and laundries. Then they are choosing hybrid and vinyl flooring for dining rooms and kitchens as an example. Why not have all of these options available and never miss out again? Plus, we also specialise in window furnishings, offering another reason for potential customers to come and visit your showroom.
“The best business decision we ever made! When we first added on our Carpet Call franchise we doubled our total sales within 2 years. We also run the Carpet Call business with a positive cash flow. We get paid up in full for all jobs, so we don’t have to chase outstanding debts. This is fantastic for our overall business.”
