Woburn, MA – January 2026 – Dalia Debs, 43, a resident of Woburn has recently opened her new flooring business known as Floor Coverings International of Greater Boston. Her team will be serving communities in Lexington, Woburn, Winchester, Stoneham, Arlington, Belmont, Bedford, Burlington, Billerica, and Reading.

Debs brings a wealth of professional experience and a fresh perspective to the flooring industry. As a former Sales & Relationship Manager in the FinTech sector, Debs spent 15 successful years fostering trust-based client relationships with customers managing complex financial investments. It was this foundation of consultative selling and ability to build trust that shaped her approach in guiding homeowners through significant home improvement decisions and selecting flooring products that enhance their homes or offices.

"I always knew my corporate life had an expiration date," Debs shared. "I was drawn to entrepreneurship because it offers the freedom to cultivate a service level and culture that truly reflect my values. Helping people create beautiful homes is deeply fulfilling."

Through her journey of researching franchise opportunities, Debs sought a business model that would allow her to provide high-quality, AI-resistant home services while maintaining a distinctive touch. "When I upgraded the floors in my own house, I saw firsthand the need for a more exceptional customer experience. Floor Coverings International stood out as the leader in mobile flooring solutions, with a dedicated support system that empowers franchise owners to deliver unrivaled service," she explained.

Debs is committed to fostering a sense of community within her business. She aspires to build a recognizable brand in Greater Boston, aiming to increase her team to six employees and eight installation crews over the next several years. "I want to create a culture where our customers feel valued and understood," she said. "That's the level of service I grew up with in my culture, and it's what I aim to provide.”

Debs' husband, Thomas Katto, serves as co-owner, managing inventory and materials while continuing his career as a nurse dedicated to helping underserved communities in Boston. “Together, we want to make a positive impact, not only through our business, but also by fostering strong relationships within our community,” added Debs.

As a product enthusiast, Debs is particularly fond of ultra-wide and long floor planks for their ability to create a sense of continuity and openness in homes. She advocates for lower VOC materials and responsible sourcing practices and hopes to increase the presence of cork flooring in residential spaces across the region.
