Meet Matt Pehr
“With 20+ years of hands-on experience in flooring and home remodeling, Matt has built one of Chicagoland’s most trusted local businesses.
Crafted by Matt Pehr
Built on Experience. Grown on Trust.
It all started when...
In 2018, Matt Pehr launched The Floor 4U as a hands-on answer to what was missing in the local remodeling industry — craftsmanship, care, and consistency. With more than 20 years of experience through his earlier company, Pehrfection Home Improvement, Matt built The Floor 4U from a small Mokena showroom into a trusted destination for flooring and cabinetry throughout Will County and the South Suburbs.
Known for his personal touch and product expertise, Matt continues to lead his team with a “white glove” standard on every project. Whether it’s luxury vinyl plank, hardwood, or full kitchen remodeling, Matt believes in doing things right — the first time.
Everything changed when...
n early 2018, after nearly two decades installing floors and cabinets out of the back of my truck, I realized my clients deserved more than just a service call—they needed a place to experience every product before committing. One afternoon, I watched a young couple hesitate over samples in their own home, frustrated by how different each plank looked under their lighting. That moment hit home: people needed a dedicated showroom.
That spark inspired me to sign the lease on a small storefront in Mokena. I filled it with our top waterproof and pet-proof lines—COREtec, Shaw, DreamWeaver—and turned Pehrfection Home Improvement into The Floor 4 U, a true destination. Suddenly, referrals doubled overnight.
Opening those doors changed everything. What began as a simple display of samples became a community hub where homeowners ask questions, compare options, and leave confident in their choices—knowing there’s an expert behind every recommendation.
One of the turning points was
This is where you want to highlight a key part of your origin story that served as a turning point. Focus on something short, sweet, and punchy. Notice how an image in the background helps to communicate visually what you have written. Make sure it complements your story (no random stock photo).
The shorter you can keep this point the better as people will naturally scroll and if they like what they see here, they may go back to the beginning and read the whole story.
Little did I know...
In early 2018, after 18 years of remodeling homes under the Pehrfection banner, I realized my clients needed more than great craftsmanship—they needed a showroom where they could see and feel every option before the first plank was cut. So I signed the lease on a modest storefront off 80th Avenue in Mokena, filled it with the best waterproof and pet-proof floors I could source, and opened the doors as The Floor 4 U.
Then, things finally turned around...
The response was instant. Homeowners who had trusted me with their kitchens and basements were now sending friends and neighbors to “Matt’s new flooring place.” Within three years that tiny shop couldn’t hold the traffic, so we moved to our current 9,000-sq-ft showroom on Willow Lane—doubling our inventory, earning five straight “Best Flooring Store” awards, and proving that a white-glove, expert-led experience still matters.
In The End
My Mission Became
To bring “Pehrfection” to every square foot we install—delivering honest guidance, artisan-level craftsmanship, and products that stand the test of kids, pets, and time.
I believe homeowners deserve a partner who listens first, recommends only what lasts, and treats every project as if it were their own home. That promise drives every estimate I write, every plank my team sets, and every handshake that follows.
my name is
Mathew Pehr
And I'd like to show you what Pehrfection is..
For more than two decades I’ve been knee-deep in sawdust, grout, and design plans—helping Chicagoland homeowners turn blank floors and tired kitchens into spaces they’re proud of. I started out as a one-man shop called Pehrfection Home Improvement, driven by the belief that every cut, plank, and cabinet hinge should live up to its name.
That pursuit of flawless detail is what led me to open The Floor 4 U right here in Mokena. Today my team and I combine white-glove service with the best names in flooring and cabinetry—COREtec, Shaw, MSI, and more—to make renovations simple and stress-free.
If you’re ready for craftsmanship you can see and a partner you can trust, stick around. Scroll down, explore our work, and when the timing’s right, let’s create a little “Pehrfection” in your home together.
