Carpeting King

About us

Our Company is one of the best-kept secrets in the floor covering business in the Baltimore/Washington/Annapolis area. For even though we sell and install hardwood, vinyl, laminate, carpet and ceramic tile floors, and we do as much business as the more well-known competitors in our area, most folks have not heard of us. That’s because our customers do not come from an expensive advertising campaign or a large traditional, expensive store, but instead they come from our already existing customer base. In fact the thing that makes us unique is that a full 80% of our business each month comes from repeat customers and from their referrals of friends, neighbors, family and co-workers. We bring the samples right to your home for a free, no-hassle and no-high-pressure estimate. Our low overhead (a fraction of our competitors) allows us to give every customer a bottom-line price without the attempt to charge retail or much higher as most other “shop-at-home” operations are infamous for doing. (…The old game of trying to see just how much you can get away with charging first$$, before you’re forced to start chopping the price and playing “Let’s Make a Deal.”) Also, our installers have been with us for years, are the best in the business, and our customers rave about the quality of their work. And that is why Carpeting King lives on repeat business and referrals. We give our customers exactly what they want—the best price, the best quality and the best service—and in turn they give us their business. Call us if we can be of service to you or any of your friends, family, neighbors or co-workers with a no-pressure, in-home estimate. 410-689-1000

We would have gave an A Rating, as the quality of the carpet and workmanship was excellent. The price was very competitive. However, they refused to dispose the many rolls of carpets and padding because one large roll of each reeked of cat urine from an area in the living room. It was disclosed up front that that was the reason we were getting new carpeting in the living room. We would have understood if they refused to take those two rolls and maybe even two other rolls. However, 12 of the 16 total rolls of not-very-old carpeting and padding that did not smell and should have been discarded, as part of the contract. After 4 days with the large pile of carpeting on our front lawn and 3 daily calls with their repeated claims that we somehow voided the contract and that the garbage men would take it for us the following week, I ended up having to borrow a truck and make two trips to the dump to dispose all the old carpeting and padding myself. With one neighbor trying to sell his house and the other having a large outdoor party that evening, we couldn't just leave that eyesore by our curb any longer, in hopes that garbage collectors would pick it up in a couple more days. Disappointing.

It all went very well. The men were there when scheduled with the correct materials. We heard no loud music or foul language, it was a pleasure. Our home was clean when they left.

Representative arrived on time for the estimate. The initial estimate was higher than a competitors and he matched the competitors price. They were able to install on a Saturday which was very convenient and was one of the deciding factors why we choose this company. Installation was smooth, fast, and effient. We love our new carpet.

I really enjoyed working with this company, which is very much a family company. I believe it is owned by brothers and both times, a father-son pair came out to do the install. The owner is very professional and courteous, but the language during both installs was quite colorful. The first install went beautifully and I loved the premium pad and berber in the basement. The installers even ran our audio wires under the carpet for us and completed work surprisingly quickly (we removed furniture and the old carpet ourselves). However, the second time we used the company, we had some problems. The first scheduled install had to be rescheduled because new tackboards needed to be glued to the linoleum floor and set for 24 hours. Then the carpet came in, and the installers showed up, and unrolled the carpet to discover it had been run through with a forklift at some point. They rush-ordered a new roll at no charge and installed it within 2 days. The second install wasn't quite as seamless as the first (literally), but we are still very pleased with the carpet and with the price.

We were given their information through a recommendation, and they were great. They came out for a free estimate, helped pick out carpet samples, measured everything right up, and worked with us to get something we would like, be able to use, and afford. Within 2 weeks of having our initial consultation we had complete new floors through out our home. And, they moved all the furniture (although we had to pack up knick knacks, etc.)

Great! Prices can't be beat. Some marks left on wall paint, but that's the only complaint.

THIS COMPANY WAS A GOOD HELP IN PICKING OUT THE TYPE AND COLORS. I WAS REFERRED TO THEM BY SOMEONE. I WAS HAPPY WITH THE PRICE. THEY WERE VERY PROMPT IN GETTING MY CARPET IN.
