Came here after experiencing many issues with the big Home Improvement stores.  The level of professionalism, knowledge and helpfulness at Sid's was a breath of fresh air!  Jorge was our contact and made everything so easy and convenient for us. The flooring products themselves are a wonderful quality for the price we paid and the installers were great---quick, clean and professional.  Everyone showed up when they said they would.  Couldn't ask for a better experience!

The carpet had to be special ordered and arrived on schedule. The installers arrived on time and finished the job quickly. I chose to dispose of the old carpet myself so they offered to cut it so that I could dispose of it more easily. A great job overall, I'm very pleased.

Service was actually provided by Sid's Carpet Barn on Miramar Road. Jim Grabowski was the contact person. He was prompt in his estimate and accurate on his pricing. He also had no problem in applying an Angie's list coupon for Sid's. The carpet installers called before arriving and were on time. A very good experience.

They did a great job. They were easy to work with. The install went nice, no problems. There could've been more communication between the shipping of the carpet.

The salesman was super helpful. I knew what I wanted and he wasted no time in pointing me to the samples that met my requirements. He helped us to find the best combination of quality and price. Even though it was a small job they treated us no differently than anyone else.
We needed a somewhat quick turnaround on install and they took care of it no problem. We went in on a Saturday and the carpet was installed the next day and done.

For the most part everything went very well. They were very friendly, helpful, and prompt with their service. My only issue is that we are slowly finding areas in the house where we will p**** our feed because part of the strip of nails is sticking through. Its only happened a few times and its annoying but not a huge issue. Overall I would say we were happy with everything.

Sids was my fourth stop in search of new flooring. Peter, salesperson was polite and very professional. He showed me a flooring new to me and gave me brochures to read. No pressure, just good info. I did my homework and decided to have this new tile installed. Peter sent Ernie, an estimator to my home. He too was very polite and professional. Installation was scheduled and performed at my covenience. Ernie and his crew were outstanding. The installation was done perfectly and fully met all my expectation. Highly recommend Sids for product, installation and price.

We went to Sid's at the beginning of April and chose our flooring and carpet to be installed. We let them know we needed it installed as soon as possible and by the end of the month at the very latest. We needed to be moved into the house a few days before May 1st because we needed the place we were moving out of ready for the new tenants by the 1st. After a week of not hearing anything from them I called to find out what was going on. I was told the flooring was in but we were waiting on the carpet and they said it was better to install the carpet first. We again mentioned our time limit and they assured us it wouldn't be a problem. They said they would check on the carpet and get back to us. They didn't. There were a couple times I called and left messages throughout the experience and didn't get calls back. We were eventually told they were waiting for the carpet from the factory. Finally around the third week of April we told them to start installing the hardwood floors despite still waiting on the carpet since we needed to get things rolling. They started installing the floors in the last week. The installers were nice and professional but showed up around 10am at the earliest. One day was more around noon and we were told they were instructed to measure another place first before coming to work on our floors. The carpets finally showed up on May 1st to be installed. We were already moved in but had everything, including our bed, in the living and dining room which was inconvenient and put us behind on working on our old place since we couldn't get our things out and into our new place in time. I love my floors and the carpet but I would not use or recommend Sid's carpet barn in the future. Oh, and when we complained about it we were told we would get a (very minimal) discount but I've yet to see any discount on what I owe and the floors are almost paid off.

From our initial contact until the job was completed Sid's kept us in the loop. All the people from the salesman to the installers were very professional. They were very knowledgeable and answered our questions fully. Work was done in a timely manner, efficiently with a pleasant attitude. Another important trait was the neatness of the installers, which can be a challenge since we live in a condo complex

Carpet and tile install are a very invasive process if you're staying the home during the whole process. It's a dirty and noisy process. Everything has to be moved- as though you are moving out of the house. All the workers were friendly and professional and worked very hard. The tile took three days and the carpet took 1 (very long) day.

They seemed very good and very helpful to us. They were very knowledgeable. The quality of the work was excellent, and their price seemed a little expensive, but it was fine. We will use them again in the future.

Carpet measurer/estimator knew the 2nd floor was uneven (due to crappy work by K2 Contracting) and said it wouldn't be a problem for the installers to level prior to installation. Installers came and refused to install carpet due to significantly sloped floor. They knew we would not be happy with the outcome and explained it was too uneven to for them to fix. Carpet estimater claimed he had no idea it was sloped but it was so obvious that the installers saw it right away and I specifically remember explaining to him before he even pulled out his tape measure. $500 additional costs later (to pull up sub floor, shim, then float leveling agent) carpet was installed. Seams are crappy and not in the place the estimator said they would be. Instead they go right down the middle of the room but given the sub par workmanship available in San Diego, they get 'average' for installation.

Phil Partlow, who is a sales rep for a flooring retail store (The flooring retail store is owned by Sid's Carpet Barn), came-out twice because we wanted to make sure we got what we wanted. We ordered an Anso carpet with a 10 lb. pad to make it feel more expensive. Phil tool great care to ensure his preciseness and he was great every step of the way. The entire group at Sid s Carpet Barn was on top of everything. We never had to worry. The price was competitive with other bidders and Phil made sure to tell us several times how he appreciated our business.

AT THE STORE THE SALES TEAM WAS GREAT. THEY SHOWED ME ALL THE SAMPLES AND WERE VERY HELPFUL. THE TECH THAT INSTALLED THE CARPET WAS SKILLED AND KNEW WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE.
