Buffaloe Floor Covering, Inc. began in 1965 by Glenn Buffaloe, who worked primarily part time out of his home doing carpet shampoo. Soon, he began selling carpet as well. By 1976, Glenn retired from his full time job as a Counselor for the Houston School District to concentrate on his flooring business. He leased space in a strip center on 34th Street in northwest Houston, then later a warehouse on Shepherd Drive and soon hired his son-in-law, Larry Kristynik, to help in sales. Outgrowing the warehouse space, he decided it was time to purchase the company's first warehouse on Pinemont. By now, Larry's brother, Ronnie Kristynik, had also joined in the Sales Department and business was booming.
In 1980, it was agreed that we needed more space, and we moved again to our current location at 3831 Pinemont, a 10,000 square foot warehouse. By 1983, more sales help was needed, and son-in-law, Ken Lunsmann was also hired. Glenn's wife and daughters have also actively been involved in the company through the bookkeeping and office management side of the business.
Although our business began primarily as a residential business, the last several years we have expanded more thoroughly into the commercial side of the floor covering industry, along with window coverings. We also work exclusively with several home builders in the area. Our business ethic has always been to give our customers the best possible floor for the best possible price. Many of the installation crews that work for us have been with us for many years and we always guarantee a high quality installation job. We also offer a full-time repair technician who has been with us almost since the beginning. We pride ourselves on operating for the past 35 years with integrity when dealing with all our customers.
