Longstanding Flooring Business Enters New Chapter with Ownership Transition.
April 13, 2025
Colonial Flooring America, a trusted local flooring company with nearly 52 years in business, is entering a new era as it transitions to new ownership. On March 31, 2025, longtime owner Peter Escobar officially passed the torch to Sean Gordon, continuing the company's legacy of quality service for residential, commercial, and non-profit customers. Escobar will remain involved during the transition, ensuring a seamless transition and offering ongoing support.Since purchasing the business nearly 23 years ago, Escobar has remained committed to his original vision: building a company grounded in trust, exceptional service, and community connection. Under his leadership, Colonial Flooring America embraced the "Room To Explore" showroom model-part of the Flooring America co-op-modernizing the customer experience and enhancing the company's industry presence. The business has been voted "Best Flooring Company" in the Record-Journal's Readers Choice Awards twelve years in a row, boasts numerous 5-star reviews, and holds an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
"My vision from the start was to build a business that people could trust - a place where we made a difference to customers by providing top-quality service," said Escobar. "It has been my honor to impact people's homes and businesses and give back to the community."
New owner Sean Gordon brings a strong entrepreneurial spirit and deep appreciation for the flooring industry. He is committed to preserving the values and quality that define Colonial Flooring America while also continuing to grow the business.
" am excited to build on the strong foundation that Peter Escobar has laid," said Gordon. "Colonial Flooring America's commitment to quality, service, and community involvement remains unchanged. We will continue to proudly serve Wallingford and surrounding towns, with plans to expand toward the shoreline, where I reside."
Customers, friends, and community members are invited to stop by Colonial Flooring America to meet the new owner and celebrate this exciting new chapter.
