Custom flooring accessories in Strathmore

About an hour from our northwest Calgary shop, along Highway 1

Strathmore and the surrounding Wheatland County are further out than most of the places we serve, and that distance is exactly why people there call us — custom work is harder to find locally. Cool Returns makes flush vents, stair nosing, reducers and T-moldings cut from your own flooring material, at our shop in northwest Calgary.

What we see in Strathmore homes

Strathmore's mix leans practical. There is a solid core of older town housing, a set of newer developments like Lakewood, Edgefield and Aspen Creek, and — distinctively — a real number of acreage and farm properties in Wheatland County around the town. Acreage homes change the brief. They're often larger, frequently renovated in stages over years rather than all at once, and they take genuine wear: boot traffic, dogs, and a mudroom that earns its name. That pushes flooring choices toward durable luxury vinyl plank and engineered hardwood, and it makes the transitions matter for a practical reason as well as a visual one. A reducer that's the wrong height in a house like that isn't just an eyesore, it's the thing everyone catches a boot on.

Getting to us

We serve Strathmore and the wider Wheatland County area, and it is a longer run than our closer towns — about an hour to our shop at 262 Poplar Hill Drive in northwest Calgary. Because of that, most Strathmore customers plan one trip in with the material and one trip back for the finished pieces, usually tied to something else they were coming into the city for. We don't deliver, so it is worth getting the whole order together before you set off rather than discovering a missing piece later.

Strathmore Questions

Questions we get asked locally.

Are you too far away to be worth it?

Plenty of Strathmore customers say the opposite — custom flooring accessories are hard to source locally, and it's a straightforward run down Highway 1. It is two trips, though: one to bring the material to the shop and one to collect the finished pieces. Get the full list together before the first trip and it stays at two.

Can you make accessories for luxury vinyl plank?

Yes. LVP is one of the most common materials we work with, and it's the dominant choice in acreage and farm homes for good reason.

We're renovating in stages. Can we order in batches?

Yes, and lots of people do. One thing worth knowing: keep all your offcuts from the first stage. Matching a later batch is far easier when the material came from the same production run.
