to found Intertech Flooring in Austin. Many of the 12 original

True to its vision as a different kind of flooring company,
Intertech chooses early on to rely solely on in-house installation
teams in lieu of subcontractor labor, to ensure the highest quality

management ensures that projects are completed on time, on budget
and with total customer satisfaction. The success of the team
approach speaks for itself. The majority of Intertech's business
is from returning customers and customer referrals.
