Get to Know us!

Hello, we're Tapi and we're slightly obsessed with floors! We're a flooring retailer with a difference, here to blow a breath of fresh air into carpet and flooring shopping – and we'd love for you to join the revolution.

Our story started in 2015, when a handful of flooring specialists decided to do things differently. Our mission was simple: make buying flooring reassuringly simple for our customers – and show that it could be fun! Since then we've grown to 253 stores, with a fleet of home consultants on the road nationwide. We're the largest flooring retailer in Britain and our customers rate us 'Excellent' on Trustpilot!

Tapi Smart Flooring Solutions is where we take everything we've learned in homes and bring it to our business partners. Using our national store network and fitting capability, we supply and fit flooring for social housing providers, housebuilders, build-to-rent operators and insurers – and we're growing fast.

So, what's the secret to our success? Our people. Even though there are around 1,500 of us, we're still a company with family values at heart. Wherever you're based – at the office, in a store or on the road – we all work together as one team. It's a happy place to work, and when you love what you do, customers see that too.
