Jabaras

More than 50 years ago, George Jabara Sr. was with Razook Grocery before he and auctioneer Bud Palmer bought the entire stock of a western-wear store and hosted a successful close-out sale. Pleased, the duo discovered that they could readily pick up distressed goods from the various freight warehouses, bankruptcies, liquidations and auctions in the area. In 1970, George opened Jabara's Damaged Freight in Wichita, Kansas with the goal of saving his customers money on low-priced, secondhand goods - including carpeting and other unique home improvement items.

Jabara's has the largest selection of in-stock carpet in the entire state of Kansas. We carry over 1,000 rolls in every style. The question is, which is right for you? A commonly perpetuated myth is that carpeting has a negative impact on air quality. In reality, carpet is the perfect solution for those who suffer from asthma or allergies due to its tendency to trap dust and allergens within its fibers, preventing them from escaping into the air. Regular cleaning is all you need for carpet to improve your home's air quality.

Real wood has tons of natural charm - each plank has unique variation in wood grain, mineral streaks, and knotholes, as well as tone and texture. Hardwood floors also take on wear, scratches and other individual changes as they age, adding value to your home as they become more and more unique over time. With the proper care, hardwood is a great investment that will look great for many decades. Hardwood flooring colors and styles are as varied as the many types of trees from which they're harvested.

Spills happen - it's a fact of life! Protect your floors from those spills with the latest technological innovation in flooring. Waterproof core keeps liquids on the surface, preventing them from seeping below and giving you one fewer thing to worry about. These floors are designed to look and feel like real wood, stone or ceramic flooring, with the advantage of being able to be installed in spaces where those traditional materials can't go. Waterproof solid core floors are the newest innovation of engineered products.

Sometimes referred to as resilient flooring, luxury vinyl is a category specifically engineered to meet the unique needs of active families with busy lifestyles while still offering beautiful wood and tile looks. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and luxury vinyl plank (LVP) each offer a distinct look with similar great features. LVT mimics the look of stone or ceramic tile, with beautiful colors and textures that feel like the real thing! Some designs, available here at Jabara's, are even made to be installed using real grout for added realism.

If you're looking to refresh a room in your home, make a design statement, maybe shopping for the sports fan in your life or need to add some holiday spirit to your home, an area rug is an easy and great place to start. Whether you've recently installed new hardwood floors, tile or laminate flooring, an area rug is the perfect way to help protect those new floors from pets, outdoor debris, kids and life in general. At Jabara's located in Wichita, KS, we offer the largest selection of in-stock area rugs in South Central Kansas.
