Box box ready to go.

Really, you guys decide to now venture into cabinetry.

Yes, we've had the we've had countertops. Now we're going to have the cabinets now for the full kitchen. They can do vanities out of the same. It's new but actually doing pretty good now. The pricing is very competitive for anyone out there.

You have to help there to do all the design for them. Huh.

We have a special team kitchen and bath specialist that'll work with the pro or a homeowner just to design it, lay it out and we can get a price for you in a couple of days.

Really, jeeps, I just sent my girl, my son's girlfriend to national number, okay, right to work in the kitchen department. They're public company out too. They brought out national number, which was my number. Yet I never thought to call you guys.

What's the newest thing though, so less than two months.

It's new yep, and the traffic's coming in for that absolutely, or it's the traffic coming for tile.

And then they realize, well, that's part of what we do is Hey, a new introduction, a new product line. Tell people about it. People are excited about it because yeah, they have to supply it. But I turn around time is probably the best thing off contract.

Great things. I see that you guys are doing full slab pieces.

Now, the slab pieces. Yeah, so we have by twenty five different skws available right now.

Yeah, and you got some really cool colors. I was pulling them out last two weeks ago. There was pulling them out going Okay, they gotta make them taller for my house.

We know, so I have three skws that are ten and a half feet tall. Now, oh you do, I do very popular. That was that two year job sites in the past two months. You have some book match ones. I don't have just yet. I was at Woodland Road and then Cabot Road by the way, so you were I was.

So you see what I built, and you see every one of my chepers and my floors, right, but you're still seeing. I love those white footing.

I know you do. You But the last two palace coming into the country.

I know I did. So what am I going to do next? Now we are like going hold on, this is the second white hold I thought we gotta go to break. I'm Sinney Stumbling. You listen to Toughest Nails on WBZ. We'll be right back, and welcome back to Toughest Nails on w BZ. We're all grooving in the studio tonight and welcome back to Top of Nails. I'm Cindy Stumple and we're here with.

Jesse Foster and Rick Leo and Tuley.

Mike Pretzy and you're all from ware floor in the course. Okay, perfect, So you can buy finally some of my job sites.

Very impressive.

I do do good job.

And the Harry Wooden Walk okay, beautiful. That was gorgeous. It really was.

So you were on whittled In on the marble house lots two and three. Oh they're both so yeah, so it was finished and then the other one you see.

That his cabin was almost done at that point January.

Those are some very expensive. Yeah, but the slabs, you do have slabs that can. So we have seventy units that will be building in Newton right townhouses, really beautiful ones. They're gonna look like what you saw on cabin, but a smaller version. They're going to run away from nineteen hundred to thirty eight hundred square feet. It's going to kind of have that modern but glamor. But the soft woods in there if you noticed.

Yeah, that was a semi Morden but really a cozy feeling to that that. It really was a great.

So the only thing I do is I use a lot of glass.

Yep.

Then once you walk in, it does not feel like a I don't like modern cold modern.

It was clean, but I said you had it a ring around the deck and you had at the main staircase downstairs to you.

Yeah, but you can see where we spend our money right on the olt. You saw that outstand stone, it was like this. It's just like the stonehouse. The stone just didn't stop right. But you could be supplying me with all of that. It's just communicating more and going and say, okay, what do we have the exterior stone that works?

Right?

The only thing we probably couldn't get just yet is like the fire pit was being built that size, I don't have the thickness.

Of the Yeah, so that's outdoor blue mist. That's those are those granite stones that we use.

What everything else like patio pavers now, we do have like three or four different skews now that you haven't seen.

If you noticed the front of have it we used twenty four by forty eight.

Person out there, that's what I have now available.

Right, you have it available now if outside start to come in this spring, and I'm going to tell you something. I was terrified this winter. It was a terrible winter and it all sustained. We didn't have one pop good, nothing popped. But again we have great installers too. I don't pay penists, right, and I don't you know, we don't pay penants. You don't hire monkeys, right, These guys are good. My Masons has been with me for twenty five years. My towel guys twenties, twenty years, some thirty

You know.

But it's getting a little tougher out there. I did notice one time when I was in Florida Core you had some type of teaching going on there, right, which was what.

We do a quarterly. We just had a lot of Creek training for their shower systems, different simmit of the shooter system. Yeah, will be in next week actually demonstrating their product as well. Next week.

You know what, I need to come there because there is some type of shlooter that you're using in the showers that I don't use. I'm very old fashioned. Copper pans, door rock, waterproofing. And then you guys got a whole system that I really should wrap my arms around.

The biggest advantage of that's gonna be warranty. I mean they're gonna they're gonna warranty everything if you use their products through and through the pre slopes, the walls. They have all the waterproofing membranes. We can order custom sized pansy.

So I'm gonna buy pants, right. So just remember I've been doing this for thirty seven years. I've never used robbery, and they've only used copper pans. And you guys have had no situations with with this whole shlooter thing going on with their peans and everything.

Right, So it's not a it's not a rubber pant. It's going to be like a composite material covered in their waterproofing membrane. It's all structurally sound. You're just gonna, you know, mortar this down to your wood frame and then all the drainage can be set up. They've got linear drains, square drains, all the different colors to match all other trims.

I need to know when that meeting is cooked, some me reach out to my office. Let me know, because I got to go take that class.

That's definitely worth coming by next week.

Yeah, it would, it would be worth mine my time in Bond's time to come. Sometimes it's hard to teach an old dog, nu tricks.

No, not you, Cindy.

I hate Bild electric houses. Now I can't have guess. Okay, what are.

Your trends that you guys are seeing this year? Anything different?

No way? I had a question. Oh you did, Yes, I took away my crystal white. You remember crystal white forty eight?

Yeah, you want to buy like a whole container. I can ask the buyer about that.

I thought we couldn't get anymore.

I have to ask, have to go way up and try to get it for you, but commit having committing to a lodge, amunt. We can talk about that.

But why did you remove the forty eight? By forty that crystal white was the best.

They just changed the color and three other developers like yourself, I use it constantly. They just went to a different color and off white and a little bit of an off white. That's the color I have right now, and a crystal white. No, it's more of a cream or off white.

But it's not that same crystally, So I thought they stopped making They did.

We'll see if they can make a production run just for you. Have to ask that if you want to.

So I thought I had heard that maybe Singapore was going to start to make what the manufacturer just decides we're not going to make it anymore.

We just started bringing it in. We just we just we changed skews to freshen things up every few years.

And you didn't notice that was a big stell.

It was a big sell for us. Not everyone else was selling it to our success rate. So it's more numbers across.

The Listen how much sure that I was buying in Florida more than anyone I go around. I did fifteen thousand scrip forouse in Florida. We went to every Florida court in Florida, and we finally gone enough to go around. We had the shots out of stock, and then Massachusetts I bought its. Then I had to go to.

Have to chase down for you you know that.

But then I then they can company left a tell company of cors like a bootique towel company and foot law deal and then I bought. They had like four case left and I had to chip the towels. That was it and I.

Got to bring that skewback done.

No, I just call it because Sydney, why you work with the buyer directly.

That way the thing is. It just had this crystal and a shimmering shimmering. It was thick. I never had any cracking with it. I never had problems with it, and you took it away from me. I don't know why you took it.

Yeah, yeah, so.

We can maybe trace it down. Then I buy a container and I just stole it.

That's why we can work.

How much comes to the container.

I'm gonna find out for.

You, Okay, I'll use that. I like very Do you notice everything I do is cleanly. I'm not adding forty different colors together and walk in the bathroom habits seizure, right, So everybody designs differently as far as you're concerned. What makes your stores different from the usual big box spots as you box spots box stores I call yeah.

So the unique thing about flooring the core is the micro assortment that each store is responsible for. So the department manager work alongside with the store manager and obviously even items that are being sole and wop them, which is probably thirty five minutes from douts Chest or even Avon. We sometimes have different selection. We obviously we hear the feedback from the contractor that we work with, as well as the homeowner that comes in every day and obviously

Become the So the other good thing that I like about Florida Core I can see where the towel's made.

Absolutely Yep, you have.

Signs that says India, China. You list where the towel's coming from. I think people like that.

Yeah, it's the transparency in this day and age that's so important. We list what you know made the tile and where you can get it from because a lot of our products we buy it directly from the manufacturer.

Who do you think most of your products are coming from? Right now?

Right now, fifty percent actually come domestically. But everything going on right now, i'll buyers and merchants doing a fantastic job trying to bring every product back domestically. So which is why your tile might not necessarily might not be from Singapore or Malaysia, but we'll find the vendor that can actually manufacture it over here.

Really, that's really cool.

See that's me. What's that they're going to special order stuff for you?

Listen, I deserve that. Thousands of people I've sent to Florida Core.

Hey, I want to Actually I've so I've sent two people your way. I mean to hold people.

But that's important.

Wait, here's wass my buddy Anthony ROSSI buy from you, come from you.

Anthony by is a lot from us.

How did you got Anthony?

He works with my commercial rep and Mike.

But how did you get Anthony?

That's her right there to me?

Yeah again, So he's my number one customer. You know.

Cheap is creeper? Is Anthony? Go flip floor in the court, Get away from you? No, no, I'm doing Just go do what I said to do this people loss just go this all my builders develop guys, just stop. Just go in there and Wasssi pays fast. He's good. It's all good.

We appreciate that part of it.

Right, Absolutely, money is good. So are you guys still referring out contractors to people? Oh? I got the clock in front of my face. Hold on, gotta go to commercial. This is Cindy Stumpy's Toughest Nails on w BZ. Will be right back and welcome back to Toughest Nails on WBZ. And I'm here in the studio with.

Just D Foster and Leo Toullie Hardman.

And Mike Pretzy and where you people from flowind Core. Thank you very much, Love Florine. Okay, so we already know that if I'm sending you business, that says a lot. If I'm buying product from you for all these years, now it says a lot. Okay, because come on, how many expect builders do you know? They're pushing out ten eighteen fifteen, nineteen million dollar homes and walk into Florida Core.

Not enough?

Okay, there we go. So it's good enough for my houses, it's good enough at anybody's houses, right, Let's call that what it really truly is. And another thing I like, and consumers should know that if they buy something and they're not happy, the unopen boxes can be brought back.

That's correct.

You open the boxes. Sorry you almost, but the unopened boxes can come back absolutely.

So actually my open boxes they were they let me send back as long as I had all the or they counted each ye.

Yeah, but you didn't have any mortar on the back of it. You didn't use them.

We didn't use them.

Yeah, if you have pulled the box, that's fine.

You use like fourteen of the twenty and the return of the fifteen.

The rectory policy is phenomenal, you guys, was wonderful because now if we bring back a product, there's a different skew number with a different dialogue, right, you guys got to figure out you know, Okay, we don't have that dialout anymore. So what do you do? Just kind of throw down on the sale where I can see.

Also, I'm like, I'm looking for I'm at the market down. But we'll take care of it for you.

And that's how that works. Okay, what's the what's new in outdoor and waterproof flowing options? We started to talk about that. Now let's go there.

Well more of an outdoor paver. Yeah, so there's twenty four by forty eight a couple of skews and I think the twenty four by twenty four of the other two that we have.

So we have a few twenty eight by forty eights that can definitely be used outside.

How many I think there's four SKUs right now.

We have four skew, but depending on which store because of the micro assortment porcelain paver family where it's twenty four by twenty four, twelve by twelve, and twenty four by forty eight, so you can have them the kind of mosaic look that most people are going for that's coming in in the spring. I've already started getting in a couple of skew for that.

People like that mosaic look, huh they do. Yeah, And I'm very clean. You saw how so again every designer, I'm a design builder, so we just all build design our own way. I know my product sell so I'm not going to stop doing what I do. Right. It's

Yeah.

I mean these ones are all about three quarters of an inch stick being the paper, So I think that just becomes.

No back and we're jumping back inside now, Okay, sorry, that's my boss. I just I just pulled a I ninety five. We went off eggsit thirteen on your go ahead.

Forty eight by forty eights and we can bring those in if you want. But the trend now has been more towards the XL slabs. You know, it's basically just two pieces of.

Them, the big slab forty eight.

Yeah, so we have the forty eight by ninety six up to and then the sixth.

Right, so you have forty let's go your forty eight by one on nines. Right. They're averaging how much a slab per slab?

It's an average week five hundred, between three fifty and probably seven hundred, okay.

Which is a great number, guys, very competitive. I've been paying two thousands anytime. I know, I've been paying two thousand slab right, come on, think about before labor. Here's my question. These people that are coming in and spaying between three fifty and five hundred a slab, correct, who's installing.

So our Installation Made Easy team does have a crew that's equipped to do those now. So for all of the stores locally they do have at least one where they can just source it. If it's a homeowner, they can source through the store through our installation company.

Because that's not a normal child, Not any not anyone.

Can do it half capable of doing the right equipment to do it.

Probably you do have to have the right equipment. You have to know how to put that tile up. You have to know what kind of board. Don't be hanging that crap on blueboard. You got to take that blue board off right like so, I guess some people in the highway, but that's not your problem. You're you're you're a song of the tile.

That's one of our best demonstrations we did last year.

Was yeah, and we try to educate the customer when they come in about what's going to be required. I mean tools wise, more expensive mortars, you know, just things to make sure the job.

Is full for thousand, thousand percent. But when you look at and again let me repeat that, people, I'm spending two thousand a slab before flooring. The core has now brought them in and now I'm looking saying, okay again, I've been getting price gouge for all these years. But we've been using massive porcelains for ten years now, right, So here's an opportunity for people to have this in

We do a lot of fireplaces with it now too.

You're using it on fireplace. Any concrete ones, Yeah.

There's a couple of stone looking ones yet, Oh.

I think on looking ones with the matt finish. You know a little bit of selection everywhere.

No solid grays, no saw grays are bige yet, Oh there is.

No solid grade. We have is going to be a polished.

So it's a polished saw.

Base, just a little bit of marbling to it.

Okay, so no concrete finish yet.

That was a concrete not Well, we need to look for those.

You need to look to those. Do you remember when you went to Cabot and you looked at the fireplace that was concrete looking slabs, right, So I see a lot of direction. Well, I've been doing that direction for a while. We know what we know, what trends, what trends you see in this For colors this year.

It's definitely a lot of green, So people bringing the nature stage a lot. There's also almost a revival with so you're getting pink, a little pop up light, pink, pink.

We we went back to the fifties exactly. Everything's papers coming back back a long time. We have all papers went back a long time, a long year ago.

So I'm still learning. Actually it's almost two years.

Do people need an appointment or they can just walk in if they need to see your design team?

We offer both. You know, we typically would like to schedule so we have some context to the appointment. But you know, I'll always try to accommodate. If a designer is not available, one of our associates can work with them till the designer frees up.

So you don't really know when I'm in there and I'm incognito, I'm your designer. When I walk down the you know, the hallway whatever whatever you call walk away whatever, waile and I'll thank you. And the husband wife are fighting over something like guys, can I help you? Right, And a lot of times they don't know who I am. And then they get to the front desk like that was Sidney Stumboy just helping us. You do know that, right?

Now, right, So they don't bring you unless you're bringing them for the paycheck or to pay them. But women just go there pick it out because the guys are gonna love whatever you pick out.

Oh, they don't care.

They don't care it, they know.

They just care about the garage.

Yeah, have the pro team at Florida Core help you pick it out versus arguing with your spouse.

Is I love being put in the middle of conversations.

I don't know why are being asked this? Can you really deliver straight to my job sites?

Yes?

The answer is yes. I'm answering that for that.

Thank you.

Okay, here's always my big one. I always ask every this, So I'm going to ask all for you, and I'll start with you, boss. Why do you love working over there?

Me?

I get to talk to people all day and do it. This is what I do all day is we go meet contractors and people. I'm on the road more than half the week.

So you're outside stills too.

Yeah, pretty much? Yeah?

And you you're what you stop at job sites? Scan to know networking out there exactly? Is there many developers that flowing the course?

That's my job out of it is business development, finding new business to bring it in, just to show them the store once our goal is to bring people into the store wants to show them what we have, our pricing, our selection, our availability. I can deliver five bathrooms to your job site tomorrow. But everyone else can.

Do that, No, they cannot. You're waiting three four weeks? What about tell me something? Okay, let me finish. And you do you like working there?

Yeah? Absolutely so. I've been in retail most of my life. But at the end of the day, the reason why it comes to company is the opportunity. I mean, Cindy, you mentioned it a little bit back when I first met you and Waltham, I was a department manager, so in the span of time I went from store manager to operation manager and then now a store manager. So the opportunity at the company is pretty much endless. It really depends on how much you want it.

Okay, hold that thought. You're listening to Tenfests Sales on WBC. Will be right back and welcome back to Tefest Nails on WBC. And I'm Sidney Stumpoint. I'm here with who who am I here with?

Oh, Toullie Hardman.

And Mike Pretzy.

Okay, perfect. So that's you're happy. You're happy and you.

I am very happy with the company. So it's very much like a family. The opportunities are endless. I was a contractor for twelve years and personal reasons and an injury. I just couldn't really be in it anymore. And I found somewhere where my experience and my knowledge is valued. So my my technical experience has been able.

To think you're valued as a human being over there.

Absolutely, yeah, yeah, I have to agree. Yes, yeah, yeah. It's a very you know, especially at the store level. You know, I mean we're very much like a family.

So are there any more stores opening or we like on hold now for a bit.

In this area? Nothing in the immediate year.

And what about other states? You're still opening in other states?

You know.

We just opened our most recent store in Alabama, I believe, yes.

So you guys still love the opportunity if you want to relocate Nobsta.

That's absolutely every day.

Every day he takes from his own, The company takes from their own.

Yeah, the company is huge. I'm promoting from within.

Damn, maybe I need to switch company.

That's but that's huge. Guys. What happened to my guy I talked to I? Actually, I've got like Florida Court this person. I have like twenty Florida Court people in my phone right and some have moved to Texas. Some have moved back to Florida, opened up a store there. They Jared, I think, yeah, do you remember jaredy had like reddish here, Jared used.

To come up the Jared's now working at corporate.

Yeah, he said that.

Yeah, he's in charge of merchandising.

Since and then my favorite was in Avon was Mike, but he kind of retired and he's out finding himself right now. Maybe found themselves. They found himself and come back. I don't know, but great guy, great guy. But he wanted to do hunting and all that stuff.

Whatever.

How's the Hodwood sales there?

The howdware hot Wood? How would the big category of ours? So let's be finished. We have quite a variety, a very big election of that.

Thank you. That's meet my body guard and driver. So next time somebody wants to try to screw with me, they got to deal with them. Like, right, he looks like such a nice looking guy. Nice guy. Right, he's a killer, but we love him. So you could welcome to my crazy life, right. Can't make this, can't make this crap up. So basically Hodwood has grown big in your store too. What's your best sale right now? Tile? Okay,

So for us, because we're in the New England area, hardwood is dealing number.

One hodwood really, so you're a lot more well again average average is much higher. Really so if you're in Florida, they buy more tie obviously, right, So you really dominated the Harward market up here.

That's that's come back to the micro assortment here. We're traditionally a little bit older houses around the Boston area, so you're you're getting a lot of people wanted to match the or existing flooring. So that's where the hardwood or even.

I have finished attention to your natural You sell natural right, yes, still kicking white oak right one species and a lot of people are buying prefab The problem is I need to still need that quarter.

Inch and I have it yeah in three quarters.

Well you have it in door Chester absolutely, but you have it in wealtham you have it both?

We can get a fire do.

You have it on?

Like?

I can see it, but I have to go to doort Chester sample.

What size I have?

Yeah, so it's sorry, laid out the three quarter three quarter by what? Ah, that's the big one?

A four inch wide or a five inch wide?

Well, you know, listen, if I who's up to me will be all three and a quarter. But I get all clients that pre buy these homes, they want four, five, six, seven eight. So I'm like, do you know this wood's gonna move? We have a net zero. We're down to net zero for hers radar, right, we gotta get the thouse down to net zero. That means wood's gonna move, so no one can blame the wood anymore. Sorry, folks, homes are over insulated now and things are moving. So, yes, you guys sell what fours and fives?

We sew two and a quarter, three and a quarter, four inch, five inch, and it go up to six seven inches depending really, yes, so obviously the six seven inch is probably more of a special order. But we we have five inches available in the store for you to take home. Yeah.

Just white oak, white oak, yep, white oak, and red oak. I don't use right. I use white because I use a lot of staining. Right, So, by the way, white oak's more my than red oak. Now, fifteen years ago, red oak was more more than white oak. They wanted red oak. It was cut because white oak not stained look like yellow, and red had this like, uh, this this little bit of a redy like and then you would that we were staying with a lot of mahogany stains, and so.

They do look so similar they.

Don't when you stay in there.

Are you familiar with one of the skew is called morsel, So it's actually a red oak that we've grown to look like a white oak, so it actually pick up the stain better. And that's the technology and direction of we're heading because there's such a high demand for white oak. I mean physically tree can I grow that fast? So that's why we're trying to.

How I'm buying a lot of out there right now, like cabbagry, a lot of white rifts, a lot of white quatus on right. So we all know that different oaks, you know, get into different moneies. But is your white oak cheaper than your red oak, or you're red oad cheap and you're white or you're evenly on a three let's just say three and a quarter on a three quarter, red oak's gonna be cheaper yeah. See see, I'm no dumb dumb I've been doing.

This a long time, but we're very, very competitive.
