At Pasadena Wood Floors, we search high and low to find the best products for your home, business or public building. There are several types of flooring, and many species to choose from. Our product line includes a wide array of hardwood flooring manufacturers the world over.

We have an extensive selection of domestic and exotic woods. Only the finest woods available in the world are part of collection that we offer. These include traditional red and white oak, hickory, ash, maple, red Brazilian, and American cherry. Mahogany, South American walnut, East Indian laurel and Jatoba, near black ebony, variegated Australian sage brush, purpleheart wood, rich African wenge, brown zebra wood, and even re-sawn heart pine from century old buildings.

Hardwood floors suggest warmth and richness. With proper care, hardwood rarely needs replacing, and actually increases in beauty over time. The most common and desired hardwood species is oak because its relatively neutral color goes well with most decors. Other species and finishes are available in a range of colors, the almost white of bleached oak or clear maple to the dramatic dark of exotic ebony!

We are a dealer of all major brands of exotic and domestic unfinished and pre-finished solid and engineered wood floors with full manufacturer's warranties.

GOALS AND INTERESTS
 
Career Goals: Throughout the years Marla always differentiated herself. Not only as one of only a handful of female wood specialists in the country, but as a highly respected leader and teacher in the global wood flooring industry. You’ll see her donating her time to teach at the NWFA schools throughout the country, Pasadena Community College’s construction school and at FIDM, the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles and Woodbury University at Burbank.
 
Personal Interests: With all these irons in the fire, Marla’s financial background actually helps coordinate the myriad of business details, but the reason she wakes up in the morning is her eagerness to put that long latent creativity to work to deliver a floor her clients will love for years.
