Thank you for inviting Floor Coverings International® into your home! My name is Tom Rebro, and I’m your Design Associate, here to guide you through your flooring project from start to finish. 

I am a proud Wisconsin native, raised in West Allis with strong ties to the Milwaukee area. With over a decade of experience in flooring and home improvement, I take pride in delivering a seamless, stress-free experience. I believe great spaces start with a solid foundation, and I love helping homeowners find solutions that perfectly blend function and style.

When I’m not meeting with clients, I’m usually staying active or spending time with my family. As a father in a blended family of six kids, I understand how important it is for a home to be both beautiful and highly functional. I am always working to improve my craft to provide the best possible experience for those I serve.

I’m here to make your flooring project as simple and inspiring as possible. If you have any questions, I’m just a call or message away—let’s create something amazing together!

Thank you for inviting Floor Coverings International® into your home. My name is Chris, and I'm thrilled at the opportunity to help you with your next flooring project. 

For two decades, I have dedicated myself to the home care and flooring industry. I learned the value of detail as the owner of a large Milwaukee flooring and upholstery cleaning company, later serving as General Manager for a national flooring company. I am grateful to bring that deep operational and customer experience to the local Floor Coverings International® team. 

Family is at the center of everything I do. My wife and I have been married for nearly 30 years, and together we have raised three sons. When I’m not helping homeowners, you’ll likely find me on outdoor trails with my family and two dogs, spending time at the range, or enjoying a good cigar.

I’ve always had a passion for helping people create spaces they truly enjoy. It is rewarding to see a project completed with care, and I look forward to working with you to bring your vision to life!
