Empire Today offered a decent carpet with competitive pricing. The material estimate came up a little short but the company honored the original quote a as nd provided the material. Getting the carpet installers back to complete the job took a bit of time though.

When we started the flooring project we knew we had asbestos floor tiles but the person that came to tell us about their products said it was not a problem. They could put cork on top of the tack strips so it would not be a problem. The person that installed the hard wood flooring said it wasn't the tile it was the glue so they pulled up the tack strips. I called Empire about a bad scratch which they have responded to and will fix that, but they have not called us about the tack strips being pulled up exposing all of us to asbestos dust.

Thankfully, the stair runners turned out beautifully, but getting to this point was a headache that dragged on for weeks. No one in management seems to communicate with each other and half the people have no idea what they're doing.
