"Thanks so much for your review [Member Name Removed]. Was a pleasure working with you. Enjoy your new carpet and home."
We got 5 quotes and looked at tons of materials since we had never done this type of project before. We didn't know a thing when we started. We felt the most confident in B and D and we found our favorite material there. They were more expensive than the other places we looked but we got the best feeling for working with them and felt that they would be the most reputable. After seeing the laminate expose about the cancer causing cheaply made laminate on 60 minutes we wanted to make the right decision. Bob took the time to educate us and let us know all of our choices and options. He was very patient. He showed us some things we had not considered and that helped us to be very sure of our final decision. We were able to take many samples home to help us make our decision. We ended up liking a very high quality, gorgeous laminate but for our smaller room it was well worth spending a bit more on the actual materials since the labor cost was was it was and we figured we would be doing this only once, it is really beautiful and looks perfect in the room. The selection and variety of options was great. We could have gone cheaper on the material but we love what we chose and you can feel, hear and see the quality. We do not regret it for a moment. Bob helped us pick out all materials (such as the backings and edging) and let us know what to expect for timing and the install. We didn't have to worry about a thing with his knowledgeable guidance. His guys showed up as scheduled and did a great job with the delivery of materials and for the installation. It went perfectly smoothly.
We have an older house and after the carpet came up you could see dips in the concrete floor that had to be skimmed for the laminate to work well (which Bob had prepared us for) and the installer worked very hard to prep the surface so that we wouldn't have issues. As it turned out a few months after the install there was one dip that remained at a seam of two boards and it was flexing a bit so we called Bob and he scheduled the laminate guy who came out promptly and did a bit more skim and now it is perfect. We wanted it fixed right away so it would maintain it's integrity and it is. We really appreciated their quick response and no hassle response. Very professional.
I have called in a few times with questions and have always received great help from Dot or Bob or any of the staff. You are always greeted and helped.
We also had the carpet on the staircase down to the basement done since we had new, fresh laminate and didn't want the ratty carpet there. It was installed on a different day (which was actually great, it would have been too much confusion to do all at once) and he did a great job. It is very nice, quality carpet and the installation looks good. Hassle free.
The carpets look great however two things stuck out to us: They made an error when I was paying the final portion of the bill. Something on the order of $200+ dollars. Luckily my wife caught the error in the math and we were able to avoid paying it. #2, the tacks in the entryways of our bedrooms have some tacks sticking up that we had to hammer down.
The B & D House of Carpets has a huge selection not only carpets, but all imaginable flooring materials. I was considering replacing my old vinyl in the kitchen with resilient vinyl planks. Bob Jr. gave me a set of samples to take home, to select color. Bob Sr, the owner of the company, came over to make measurements. I mentioned him we planned to replace the door from the kitchen to the back porch, and he advised to replace the door before installing the kitchen floor. I am glad we followed his advice, since replacing the threshold caused a damage of adjacent kitchen floor. The following morning, he called and gave estimate. (They later applied a $100 Angie's List member coupon to my balance). Steve, the installer, came in time and did a great job. Overall, it was a smooth, easy experience. They are professional, punctual, and knowledgeable. We will use this company for our future flooring projects.
