Hal Koller, Managing Partner; Dan Nordstrom, Vice PresidentProStar’s ambition isn’t defined by their organizational size. Despite operating on a smaller scale, the company keeps perfecting their craft and applying their expertise to a wide range of settings, with a focus on providing top-notch athletic surfaces for educational institutions, universities, and private health clubs.
Their expertise also extends to various flooring requirements, including wood athletic flooring, rubber and urethane tracks, indoor turf, weight rooms and exercise spaces. The ProStar team possesses the knowledge and skills to meet the unique needs of diverse clients, whether professional basketball teams or homeowners seeking specialized flooring solutions for their home gyms.
The company’s pursuit of perfection is evident in their high-quality installation and service delivery. From the initial point of contact to the final product, their comprehensive range of services ensures each client receives personalized attention and a solution tailored to their requirements. ProStar also goes the extra mile by providing ongoing support through yearly upgrades and maintenance services, guaranteeing clients continue to enjoy the longevity and performance of their flooring solutions over time.
“As long as they have that floor, we take care of it,” says Hal Koller, managing partner at ProStar Surfaces. This ownership has helped the company grow over the years, and its lifetime clients have stayed with it since the beginning.
Another notable project involved working with the Chicago Park District headquarters. ProStar used ash flooring sourced from trees from the Menominee Indians in Keshena, Wisconsin, that were affected by the destructive emerald ash borer. Using the ash lumber—which is both sustainable and resilient—ProStar transformed the entire facility, including the trophy case and bleacher stands with the sustainable and resilient material.
Even in the face of prevailing supply chain challenges that impact the construction industry, ProStar remains steadfast in their dedication to offering an excellent service. The team consistently overcomes the obstacles by forming strategic partnerships with suppliers and raw material providers. These alliances have helped them establish a reliable supply chain, allowing them to ensure minimal disruptions to operations and consistently deliver on their promises.
The company has a rich history with the Milwaukee Bucks NBA franchise, having supplied them with flooring for over 30 years. ProStar’s longstanding relationship with the Bucks led to recent projects that included renovating their entire training center and upgrading the floors in their new arena. Despite the passage of time, ProStar continues to provide ongoing services to the Bucks, having even completed a floor renovation for them in the past year.
Every step taken on a ProStar floor is a testament to their dedication to client satisfaction
Recently, ProStar has also been developing specialty flooring solutions for learning stairs. Many companies have been investing in facilities that serve as gathering spaces for employees, fostering group-level interactions and individual work areas. Through their expertise, ProStar ensures the flooring of learning stairs not only meets the functional requirements but enhances the overall aesthetics and ambiance of the workspace.
These projects highlight ProStar’s expertise in delivering exceptional flooring solutions and their ability to establish long-lasting partnerships with prestigious clients. With a decades-long track record, ProStar Surfaces continues to excel at providing high-quality installations that meet unique client needs and contribute to the transformation of various spaces.
