Niemann's American Flooring
About Us
Experience. Integrity.
Flooring That Fits Your Life
Niemann’s American Flooring is a proud second-generation family business with roots dating back to 1966, when it began as Niemann Flooring. Zach Niemann joined the family business full-time in 2000, building on its strong foundation. In 2008, he branched out to launch American Flooring in Marion, Illinois, laying the groundwork for future growth. After several successful years with American Flooring, Zach purchased Niemann Flooring in 2011, expanding the company to two locations: Marion and Murphysboro. In response to growing customer needs, the Murphysboro store added Benjamin Moore paint in 2019. Paint machines and displays will also be installed at the Marion location in 2025, offering even more value and convenience for local homeowners.
Before stepping into the flooring industry, Zach earned a bachelor’s degree in Business Communication and Management from Southern Illinois University Carbondale and studied abroad in Rome. He also served in the U.S. Army as a paratrooper with the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 82nd Airborne Division from 1992 to 1996. During his service, Zach volunteered to be on the first plane to test new parachutes from a C-17 Globemaster—a bold choice made during a four-day weekend off-duty.

Niemann’s American Flooring has proudly maintained an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau since joining in 2009 and is a member of the World Floor Covering Association (WFCA). The company is also a longtime supporter of local sports teams across several communities.
