About Wayne’s Carpet Plus in Lake City, FL
Lake City is the kind of place where neighbors know each other, Friday nights mean high school football, and weekends might include a trip out to Ichetucknee Springs or a round of golf under that big North Florida sky. Homes here see a little bit of everything, from humid summers and sandy soil to muddy boots after a day outdoors. At Wayne’s Carpet Plus, we are dedicated to helping Lake City homes look their best through every season.

As a family-owned and operated flooring company serving Lake City and surrounding areas since 2005, we take pride in being part of this community. With over 30 years of hands-on experience behind our installations, we offer personalized service and expert craftsmanship so you can invest in your home with confidence.
Built on Experience and Family Values
Wayne’s Carpet Plus was founded on a simple belief: treat people right and do the job correctly the first time. Since opening our doors in 2005, we have grown steadily by focusing on quality work and honest service rather than cutting corners.
Our installers bring more than 30 years of experience to every project. That means we understand how Florida’s humidity affects hardwood, how subfloors need to be prepped properly, and how to ensure carpet and tile installations stand up to everyday life in Columbia County.
Because we are family-owned and operated, our name is tied to our reputation. When you walk into our showroom or schedule an estimate, you are not dealing with a big-box chain. You are working with a local team that genuinely cares about your home.

Meet the Team Behind the Work
We believe great service starts with great people. Our team is what makes Wayne’s Carpet Plus feel less like a store and more like a group of neighbors helping neighbors.
