Stone Peters
Stone Peters founded Top Tier Custom Floors on a principle that most contractors have forgotten: the details matter more than the deadline. Every tread, every joint, every transition gets the same level of attention whether it's a single-room refinish or a three-story custom hardwood installation.
Based in Valley Center, California, Stone works directly with homeowners and builders across San Diego County and North Orange County. No subcontractors on the critical work. No cutting corners to save time. Just precision installation backed by years of experience working with the best materials in the industry.
Premium Brands We Work With
We partner with the finest flooring manufacturers to deliver floors that look stunning and perform for decades.

What Top Tier Flooring Installs
We are Top Tier Flooring, based in Valley Center, working across San Diego County and into south Orange County. Our crew installs hardwood, herringbone pattern wood, laminate and vinyl plank, polished concrete, metallic epoxy, and custom stair treads. We also sand and refinish existing wood floors.
We pour roughly 30 metallic epoxy floors a year. We install around 60,000 square feet of hardwood annually. Most jobs are within a 45-mile drive of our Valley Center shop on Cole Grade Road.
Where People Find Us
Search queries that lead people to Top Tier Flooring almost always start with a specific service plus a neighborhood. Hardwood in Rancho Santa Fe. Polished concrete in Escondido. Stair installs in Carlsbad. We answer those queries the same way we answer phone calls: with a specific number, a specific timeline, and an honest range.
Why the Name
Top Tier is not aspirational. It is what we built the company to be after 14 years of subcontracting for other shops. We left because we wanted to install the floors the way we knew they should go down, not the way the lowest bid allowed.
