Tom Wheeler

President/CEO

From installation to sales, Tom has been in the flooring industry for over 20 years. While he studied at the University of South Carolina, he continued to install flooring and decided to continue his passion after college. Upon his return home from South Carolina, he joined Local 1823 out of Philadelphia, PA to continue flooring installations. He then decided to pursue a new calling and joined the Army National Guard in 2002. While expecting the birth of his first child in 2005, he, unfortunately, was involved in a car accident that ended his career in the military and as a journeymen installer. At this pivotal point in his life, Tom took a position with a flooring distribution branch in New Jersey and opened a branch location in the Scranton, Pennsylvania area because he wanted to continue working within the flooring industry. After five years of working for this company, he was offered an opportunity to build his own company, what is today known as Elite Flooring!

Theresa Warnott

Sales Executive/Showroom Manager

Theresa was born and raised in Honesdale, PA, where she currently resides with her husband, Charles. She grew up working on a neighboring farm, which helped instill a lot of self-discipline at an early age. She continued that work for most of her life until 2001 when she saw an ad for office help at a flooring showroom. She was offered that position and over time grew to become one of the company's top sales team members! With over 18 years of experience in flooring, she has developed a vast knowledge of both residential and commercial flooring. This all made her the perfect addition to the Elite Flooring team and she joined us in July 2019!

Within our company, she is known for wearing many hats. She has a hand in everything from helping customers select products in the showroom, to handling work orders, material ordering, and marketing. If you asked her today what her favorite part of it all is, she’ll say - the people. She enjoys meeting new people in our showroom and helping them solve their flooring dilemmas.
