Chanooka Healthcare



Here are a few pictures of the floors at a project we're about 99% completed on in Channahon, IL. It's a medical office building located near the borders of Channahon & Minooka, IL so the center is appropriately named Chanooka Healthcare Center. The designer chose some really luxurious textures for the common areas including a heathered carpet tile by Constantine, a polished Italian porcelain tile wrapping the columns, luxury vinyl plank flooring resembling bamboo, and fun luxury vinyl tiles by Azrock in large format for the children exam rooms. The contractor is beginning the final cleaning process so I'll be sure to post additional (cleaner) pictures of this project after the grand opening.

ROI Flooring + Custom Logo Design
Pictured above is a custom logo that we did for Kimball Middle School in 2002. Obviously the school mascot is a tiger and when the school received funding to have all of the old asbestos flooring abated and replaced with new vinyl composition tile they wanted to find a way to make an impact at the school's main entrance. We worked with the contractor and the school to have this custom logo created. The school still gets a ton of positive feedback from parents, kids, and faculty when they are greeted with such a cool design built right into the floor.
Often times our clients forget the importance of making a great first impression for thier customers and employees at the entrance to thier facility. Whether we create a custom logo, use a unique flooring product, or create an interesting design in the floor the main entry or lobby area is a great place to spend a little extra money to create that impact that will give everyone a great first impression of your company. Furthermore, the flooring is one of the first finish materials your customers and employees will see upon entering your office so the floor is a perfect place to make a statement.
If you are interested in seeing what design ideas ROI Flooring can come up with for your office please contact Ben Rakow at 224-238-2045 to see what works best for your facility and budget.

Woodstock High School
This is my first attempt at blogging. I figured I'd join the crowd and use it to help promote my business as best I can. I'm planning on using this site to update my clients and friends with pictures of recently completed and in-progress projects. I'm hopeful that a few people read through this and maybe find my work interesting enough to refer me to someone that I may be able to earn more business.
Woodstock High School is by far the largest contract that I've ever worked on. This is a new high school that we completed in summer of 08' for IHC Construction, LLC out of Elgin, IL. Legat was the architect (Paul Babski). The contract for the flooring was $1,930,000.00. Man that's a lot of 0's! The reason for the size of the contract was that the school made the best decision ever....to scrap all of the terrazzo and do porcelain tile in the corridors throughout the new high school.
In the flooring industry porcelain tile is among the most expensive products to furnish and install. It's also among the longest lasting. Woodstock School District chose a timeless stone looking porcelain tile from Crossville called "NOW!" series, and it is beautiful. It has a very rustic look and will definitely stand the test of time both aesthetically and functionally.
I was very proud to be a part of this project. We were able to help a lot of tile setters in the Chicago area stay busy during the summer of 08' and for that I also think I earned a certain amount of respect for completing a project of that size. I also want to add that we finished on schedule, and with very little headache. The job went about as smoothly as I could have ever asked.
The picture featured here was taken when the project was about 90% complete. The contractor was still cleaning up, a few subs were still completing work, and the floors weren't final cleaned yet. I hope to have more complete final pictures to post in the near future.
Thanks for looking, and check back periodically as I'll try to update with new project photos and also some random information on new products that I think are worth sharing. I may also try to tell a few experiences from being in the Chicago flooring industry for 13+ years.
