Our first install of poured Durabella Terrazzo at an iconic NYC hospital.
This pourable, soy-based Terrazzo is lighter, greener, odor free, flexible, and developed to install seamlessly in large open spaces.
Guess the first time’s a charm – a beautiful job!

Before and after of our carpet replacement at the first of many branches of Santander Bank, this one in Garden City, NY. We used both Tarkett and Mats Inc walk-off for this project, which involved our furniture lift system. Removing and installing carpet in an occupied space with the lift system eliminates the need to dismantle workstations and disconnect phone, data and computer wiring, and installation can be accomplished overnight.

RD Weis and Diverzify Complete Full Flooring Installation at Zabar’s
New York, NY & Itasca, IL – September 2, 2020 … RD Weis LLC and Diverzify recently completed a new flooring installation at Zabar’s, the iconic specialty food shop in NYC. The project entailed replacing the weathered, 30-year-old floors with Gerflor GTI Max. In addition to the installation, the RD Weis team disinfected the family-run business every week for five months to ensure the facility was clean and safe for employees and customers.
“RD Weis did a phenomenal job transforming Zabar’s old-world floors into a beautiful, functional and safe installation,” said David Tait, Zabar’s Senior Operations and Project Manager. “The RD Weis team lived up to their marketing as “solution providers” in every way and they were great to work with. They made me look like a hero – while they did all the heavy lifting.”
In conjunction with Zabar’s management team and their associates, the install was done in four phases, from late July to late August 2020. The RD Weis team worked at night when the store was closed to replace the outdated floors using GTI Max, an interlocking, modular tile flooring. Working along Zabar’s staff, store racks and merchandise were moved from the aisles and then replaced after each shift to allow the store to reopen the next morning. The process allowed the team to leap frog areas to achieve maximum productivity and to minimize disruption to normal work hours.
“Zabar’s staff was great at mapping out how they wanted the install to go and incredibly helpful in moving everything,” said Randy Weis, President of RD Weis LLC. “One of the great features of GTI Max is that the area being worked on can return to normal service once the floor is installed, with no downtime to daily operations.”
The project began with meetings at the RD Weis showroom in Manhattan to review and discuss potential flooring solutions. GTI became the the final choice due to the product’s ease of installation, allowing the store to remain open during regular work hours, avoiding a weeks-long shutdown. At each phase of the project, communication remained open and constructive to determine what worked, what didn’t work, and what challenges to overcome.
David Tait, Zabar’s Senior Operations and Project Manager summed up the project in the following letter:
