We still have in-stock materials, and would be happy to install them if they suit your needs and fit your timeline.

We are planning to disconnect our landline soon. Our answering machine seems not to be working properly, and rather than invest in a new one, we will be using our personal cell phones. Please be sure to leave a message if we are unable to pick up. Thank you, Joe & Dixie 309-251-2431.

As the next step in our
"Phase Out to Retirement,"
we will focus on
Reducing our Inventory:
- Stock rolls of high-quality nylon carpet
- Several larger (12'x14') remnants
and many, many smaller
- Stock vinyl plank
and a very limited number of vinyl rems
At this time, we will not be placing new orders with our distributors.
If you are interested in seeing what is available, please call for an appointment.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sad news of the passing of our dear friend and colleague, George Kenney. George has installed for Merrick Floorcovering for over 34 years, and his contribution has been invaluable. Since the start of Joe’s “phase out,” George has been our primary installer.
Joe will come out of semi-retirement in order to honor all of the company’s commitments. We ask your indulgence as we strive to fulfill this promise. We will not be able to take on more work until after January 2025.
Most importantly, we ask your prayers for his widow, Marcie, and their entire extended family. George’s absence will leave a hole in many hearts. –Joe & Dixie

Effective July 14, 2023, the store hours will go to appointments only. After 52 ½ years, Joe will begin to start phasing himself out. Since we have employees willing to continue working, we will continue to sell products. Joe will line up all the work for them and oversee the jobs. He will, of course, still keep busy cleaning up current sold and pending jobs.

Please call and leave a message if you would like to set up an appointment. 309-742-8608
