Michael Keroack, the founder and owner of Authentic Hardwood Flooring, has always had a passion for hardwood flooring. He first began his career in hardwood flooring installation in Hartford, CT back in 1986 at just 18 years old.
After nearly a decade of honing his craft, Michael moved to Atlanta where he continued to gain experience within the industry until he eventually opened Authentic Hardwood Flooring in 1999. Although Michael’s work keeps him busy, he and his wife Peggy also find time to travel and attend their favorite sporting events together, eagerly cheering on the Dallas Cowboys and the Boston Red Sox.
When they aren’t on the road, Michael can be found spending quality time with family – joining his brother once a year for an annual snowmobiling trip to northern Maine and Quebec Canada.
