Kater Flooring - A Family Business Of Glenview

About Kater Floors

Kater Floors was started in 1962 with the idea that hardwood flooring would one day surpass carpeting as the choice of floor coverings in homes around Chicagoland. At that time, the business specialized in hardwood floor installation and refinishing only. Over the years, we have expanded into many other floor coverings including stone, tile, marble, slate, and pre-finished flooring. The business was originally located in Wilmette, IL, later moving to to Glenview, IL as the central location to serve those in the existing community. As the business grew so did the radius of communities we service, we are now proud to service more then 75 communities around Chicagoland while still being located in beautiful Glenview, IL.


Kater Floors is now a fourth generation business of Glenview, Illinois. With a trusted name and quality work, Kater has been the choice for many of the highest quality floors in the Chicagoland area. Specializing in the installation and refinishing of floors, Kater has created beautiful spaces in countless homes and businesses, many of which you can find in our galleries.
