Wally's is weaving your dreams into reality
Wally’s Carpet & Tile is more than just a flooring store – it’s a legacy of quality, integrity, and community that began in 1954. Founded by Wally and Brenda Johnson in downtown San Bernardino, Wally’s has been a staple of the Inland Empire for over 70 years. What started as a humble, hometown flooring business quickly grew into a trusted name for generations of families and homeowners.
In the 1960s, Wally’s moved just next door, staying true to its roots until 2017 when the original building was sold, and Wally’s moved to its current location at 909 S. Arrowhead Ave.
In 1982, Gene and Linda Gleason, longtime installers and contractors who had worked with Wally’s for over 20 years, took over the business. A San Bernardino native, Gene was committed to upholding the values of trust, honesty, and service that Wally’s was known for. Their commitment to the community and dedication to quality left a lasting impression.
In 2011, Chris Rogers and Robert Foster, who had worked alongside the Gleasons since the 1990s, purchased Wally’s Carpet & Tile. Chris, now the sole owner alongside his wife Winter, continues to operate the business with the same traditional values, ensuring every customer feels like part of the Wally’s family.
"It helps to have a store that was so well run by Gene and Linda Gleason, and Wally before them,"** says Chris. **"One of the most amazing things we’ve learned since taking over is how Wally, Gene, and Linda loved their community. They left big shoes to fill, and we’ve made it our mission to continue the values they started."
As part of the family’s commitment to growth and innovation, Wally’s has expanded to multiple locations, including our Yucaipa store at 33328 Calimesa Blvd, which opened in 2014, and our new Upland store at 1096 W 9th St. Despite this growth, we remain a small, family-run business dedicated to providing the best flooring options for your home.
We offer a wide variety of flooring products, from Lifeproof, Waterproof, Kidproof, and Petproof Carpets, to beautiful Hardwood, Laminates, Luxury vinyl planks, Tile, and Wood-look tile. Our "Cedars Paw of Approval" marks the best pet- and kid-friendly flooring options, ensuring your home can handle life’s messiest moments.
With over 70 years of history, Wally’s continues to operate with the same hometown values, blending quality craftsmanship with the latest flooring trends. We’ve made it our mission to be the number one choice for flooring in the community, weaving your flooring dreams into reality, one project at a time.
