A 360° Capability Breakdown
Flooring, tile, stone, matting, and safety-flooring brands don’t need a generalist web agency. They need a partner fluent in complex catalogs, B2B buying journeys, ERP dependencies, and multi-site operations one that understands the difference between putting products online and making them easy to find, evaluate, and buy.
DotcomWeavers’ work across Flooring Inc, Wayne Tile Company, Wearwell, Whiz Q Stone, and MatsOnline spans strategy, UX, platform engineering, ERP integration, B2B commerce, search, payments, and ongoing optimization. The technology differs by client. The challenge is constant: make a complicated product business easier to operate and easier to buy from.
This guide breaks down the capabilities that matter most for flooring and surface brands, grounded in client results and current industry benchmarks.

1. eCommerce Strategy & Technical Audits
Every successful project starts with an audit of what’s working, what’s creating friction, and what needs to change in architecture, UX, SEO, catalog structure, and operations. For businesses running large catalogs or multiple sites, years of incremental changes tend to leave behind slow pages, inconsistent navigation, and disconnected systems.
Case: Flooring Inc
Flooring Inc came to DotcomWeavers running five separate websites, with slow load times, an outdated design, limited payment options, inaccurate shipping calculations, and disconnected systems compounding SEO challenges. Rather than treat the redesign as an isolated exercise, DotcomWeavers addressed the audit findings as part of a broader digital commerce transformation, resulting in a consolidated environment with faster performance, integrated systems, flexible payments, and stronger B2B capability.
2. CX/UX Design for Complex Flooring Products
Flooring is not an ordinary eCommerce category. Customers evaluate products across size, shape, color, collection, application, and material — and B2B buyers (reps, distributors, contractors, procurement teams) need to move even faster. Good flooring UX reduces that complexity through intuitive categories, advanced filtering, application-based discovery, customization tools, and mobile-first design.
Case: Flooring Inc
DotcomWeavers introduced simplified product categories and filters, and built a DIY Designer Tool that let customers customize and explore flooring options directly — so customers no longer had to understand the catalog’s complexity just to find what they needed.
Case: Wayne Tile Company
Wayne Tile’s two legacy websites made it difficult to showcase the catalog or deliver a consistent experience. DotcomWeavers rebuilt the eCommerce framework on Magento Open Source with mobile-first UX, and implemented intelligent Elasticsearch so customers could search by SKU, collection name, shape, size, and color, with automatic typo correction and advanced filtering layered on top.
3. Platform Engineering & Development
Architecture should match the complexity of the business. DotcomWeavers builds on Adobe Commerce, Magento Open Source, BigCommerce, and Shopify Plus, with custom frontends including Hyvä where performance and modern UX are priorities — engineering the platform around the business’s catalog, customers, systems, and growth plans rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all stack.
Case: Flooring Inc
Five separate websites were consolidated into a unified Adobe Commerce environment with a custom, lightweight Hyvä theme — creating a cohesive brand experience while simplifying navigation and site management.
Case: Wearwell
Wearwell’s two disconnected sites created operational inefficiencies and limited B2B functionality. DotcomWeavers migrated Wearwell to Adobe Commerce Cloud, consolidated both platforms through a multi-site configuration, and layered in a Hyvä frontend, Adobe Sensei AI search, custom B2B features, and integrations with Salesforce, Epicor, and Klaviyo.
4. ERP, PIM & Commerce System Integrations
For a flooring business, the storefront is one piece of a larger technology ecosystem — product data may live in a PIM, orders and inventory in an ERP, marketing in a CRM. When those systems don’t talk to each other, teams compensate with manual work. DotcomWeavers builds the integrations that connect the storefront to what runs behind it, working with systems including NetSuite, Epicor, Akeneo, Canto, Salesforce, and Klaviyo.
Case: Flooring Inc
Integration with NetSuite, Akeneo, and Canto DAM centralized product information, connected commerce with core operations, and organized digital assets — paired with custom shipping and payment rules that resolved the inaccurate shipping and limited payment flexibility of the old system.
Case: Wearwell
Salesforce, Epicor, and Klaviyo were integrated into the Adobe Commerce environment, streamlining workflows across commerce, CRM, ERP, and marketing — directly supporting the sales reps and distributors the old platform had underserved.
5. Flexible Checkout, Shipping & Payments
Higher-value purchases, business orders, financing, and varied shipping requirements can all break a standard checkout. Design checkout around the business model and customer behavior, not the platform’s default limits.
Case: Flooring Inc
DotcomWeavers introduced split payments and Blackhawk Gift Cards alongside custom shipping and payment rules, closing shipping-accuracy and payment-flexibility gaps that had limited conversion—and creating a more predictable buying experience overall.
6. B2B Commerce & Distributor-Ready Infrastructure
Flooring and surface brands typically serve more than one buyer type — homeowners, contractors, distributors, and sales reps — each needing different tools: account-specific experiences, bulk ordering, custom pricing, and self-service research.
Case: Flooring Inc
B2B buyer-specific features, custom enhancements, and bulk-ordering capability let the platform serve consumer and business customers within one unified environment.
Case: Wearwell
Custom B2B features, forms, and dashboards were built specifically to improve sales-rep and distributor productivity, with B2B and B2C operations unified through a multi-site Adobe Commerce implementation.
7. Search, SEO, Content & Growth
Search is inseparable from product discovery. If a site can’t surface the right SKU, color, or size quickly, the customer leaves before reaching the product page — making technical SEO, site architecture, search, and content core parts of the commerce experience.
Case: Flooring Inc
SEO preservation was managed as a core requirement — not an afterthought — while five websites were consolidated onto a new commerce architecture, protecting organic visibility through the transition.
Case: Wayne Tile Company
Intelligent Elasticsearch with automatic typo correction and advanced filtering let customers search by SKU, collection name, shape, size, and color — because in flooring, search has to understand product attributes, not just keywords.
Case: Wearwell
Adobe Sensei AI search and Klaviyo automation extended the experience beyond basic browsing, helping customers find relevant products faster while supporting ongoing engagement.
8. Ongoing Support, Optimization & Project Rescue

A complex eCommerce platform can’t be launched and forgotten — product data, search, ERP connections, payments, shipping logic, and security all continue to evolve. DotcomWeavers provides managed support covering platform maintenance, security updates, performance optimization, integration support, UX improvements, SEO maintenance, and ongoing development.
For businesses that started a project with another agency and are struggling to finish it, Project Rescue offers a practical path forward: understand what’s already built, identify what’s holding it back, and chart a route to completion rather than starting over.
What Sets Flooring eCommerce Apart
The technical challenge isn’t the number of products — it’s the number of systems, attributes, buying paths, and business rules attached to those products. Multiple sites need one consistent brand. Customers need to search by color, shape, size, collection, or SKU. ERP, PIM, and DAM systems need to stay in sync. Distributors and reps need their own tools. Payments and shipping need flexible rules. And the storefront needs to make all of it feel simple.
The frontend is what customers see. The commerce architecture is what makes the experience work.

Why DotcomWeavers

Across Flooring Inc, Wayne Tile Company, and Wearwell, the pattern is the same: a complex product business handed over a tangle of outdated sites, disconnected systems, and limited B2B tools, and left with one consolidated, faster, better-integrated commerce environment built around how it actually operates.
That outcome comes from treating eCommerce as a single connected system rather than a stack of separate projects. A new frontend still has to work with the product catalog. The catalog still has to connect to the PIM. The platform still has to talk to the ERP. Checkout still has to match how customers actually pay. Search still has to understand how customers describe products. B2B still has to serve distributors and sales teams directly. And all of it has to stay maintainable after launch.
DotcomWeavers brings that full range under one roof: strategy and audits, UX design, platform engineering across Adobe Commerce, Magento, BigCommerce, and Shopify Plus, ERP/PIM/CRM integration, flexible checkout and payments, B2B and distributor infrastructure, search and SEO, and ongoing managed support — including Project Rescue for projects that stalled elsewhere.
For flooring, tile, stone, matting, and safety-flooring brands, that breadth is the difference between a website project and a commerce partner. The question isn’t whether the current site needs work. It’s whether the underlying commerce architecture can support the products sold, the systems run, and the customers who need to be reached — and DotcomWeavers is built to answer that question end to end.
What should a flooring or tile brand look for in a digital commerce agency?
Experience with complex catalogs, B2B commerce, ERP integrations, multi-site architecture, and advanced search — plus an understanding of how UX, product data, SEO, payments, and backend systems work together, rather than as separate projects.
What eCommerce platform is best for a flooring website?
There’s no universal answer. The right platform depends on catalog complexity, B2B requirements, number of sites, ERP/PIM needs, and growth plans. DotcomWeavers works across Adobe Commerce, Magento Open Source, BigCommerce, and Shopify Plus, so the platform decision follows the business rather than a single preferred technology.
Can a flooring website support both B2B and B2C customers?
Yes. Flooring Inc runs B2B buyer-specific features alongside its consumer experience, and Wearwell’s multi-site Adobe Commerce implementation unifies B2B and B2C operations entirely.
How important is ERP integration for a flooring eCommerce website?
Critical whenever customer, product, order, or operational data lives outside the eCommerce platform. Flooring Inc integrated NetSuite; Wayne Tile integrated Epicor Prophet 21; Wearwell integrated Epicor alongside Salesforce and Klaviyo. The right integration reduces disconnected workflows and strengthens the link between commerce and the rest of the business.
How can flooring websites improve product search?
Start with how customers actually search. Wayne Tile’s customers needed to find products by SKU, collection name, shape, size, and color — so DotcomWeavers implemented intelligent Elasticsearch with typo correction and advanced filtering. For complex catalogs, search needs to reflect the attributes customers actually use.
Can a flooring website be migrated without damaging SEO?
Yes, but only if SEO is considered throughout — architecture, URLs, redirects, content, metadata, and crawlability all need attention before and during migration. Flooring Inc.’s project specifically built in SEO preservation while consolidating five websites.
Does eCommerce development end after launch?
No. Complex environments need ongoing maintenance, integration support, performance tuning, security updates, and new functionality — especially once ERP, PIM, CRM, marketing, shipping, tax, and payment systems are all connected.
