About B&B
B&B Flooring truly is an example of an American business that was built from the ground up. Bruce Baker, the third generation of Bakers in the local construction industry began the business in their family barn in downtown Dryden, in 1992. Over the past eighteen years his dedication to quality and superior service has built the company into one of the leading floor covering dealerships in the area. When the time came to move the business to Dryden Road, he resolved to make it the region's finest showroom, with the most superior service available. Today, B&B is a proud member of the International Design Guild and has access to such high quality manufacturers as Woolshire, Amtico, Louis Dabbieri and many others at group buying prices which are not available to the individual dealer. This broad range of distinctive products is beautifully showcased for easy comparison in B&B’s elegant showroom along with a staff of friendly flooring experts who are available to discuss your needs.

Testimonials
"The installers were great; They came in on a Friday evening and were done by the following Monday, allowing us to continue our work and not miss any time with our important customers. They also moved a lot of furniture and put it back exactly in its place." - John Bailey, Bailey Insurance, Dryden, NY
"Whether using unusual materials such as mosaic tile or decorative cork on walls or ceramic tile for bathrooms and kitchens, B&B exceeded our expectations. They have the skills and expertise to do challenging installations in an upscale commercial environment. When time was an issue for our new restaurant opening, the owner Bruce and his son Justin came in at 8pm on a Wednesday and stayed until 4am to finish the job. That's a work ethic and dedication you don't see everyday!" -Rob Cohen, Owner Stella's Kitchen, Café, Cocktails & Olivia
"Kendal at Ithaca was introduced to Bruce Baker and B&B Flooring in 1999 when Lees offered to replace our Health Center Activities Room carpet with Lees Medic Logic carpet. We were pleased with the way it cleaned up...it really was stain resistant. Since then, we have replaced all of our Health Center rooms and corridors with Lees carpet. B&B also provides carpeting and vinyl flooring for our cottages and apartments. I have been very pleased with the service I receive from everyone at B&B. If an issue should arise, a phone call is all it takes to resolve it. Jim has always been very accommodating and is usually able to get to Kendal the same day for a measurement or to address a problem we may have had. Both Bruce and Jim are willing with management to discuss a big project to ensure as little disruption for our residents as possible and Jeff is always willing to help me figure out the price for a carpeting upgrade. The installers are always patient and very courteous to our residents and do a great job under some very difficult sistuations. I have enjoyed working with everyone at B&B and hope to continue this relationship." - Vicki Elliott, Environmental Service Manager, Kendal at Ithaca
