>> Marshburn's Flooring America always does a great job for us. Very nice family-owned local business in Humble.
@donnatella: Flooring America is a nationwide chain. Mashburn's is the local franchise.
@WskyTngoFxtrt: Either way, you are dealing with a local guy, who lives with his family in the immediate area, and it's a local guy's trusted doing the work. They have been in business a long time and they are transitioning into ownership from his parents.
@donnatella: That's cool. My point was "family-owned local business" is a little misleading because he has to pay franchise and advertising fees to corporate which might make him a little more costly than a traditional family-owned local business. 4951
