Salesman was great, no pressure, and completely honest. Product just wasn't in the right price range for us.
Description of Work: A rep came out in July of 2008 to give us an estimate on liner panels for our bath enclosure, whose walls had suffered water damage. He immediately told us that the system would likely be more than what we'd want to spend, since it was intended for situations where homeowners wanted to avoid ripping out the old walls, while ours had already been ripped out. In the end, it would've been 1800 for 3 walls & a ceiling panel, which was unfortunately well out of our price range.

They had to come back twice to put the molding on correctly after laying the floor. About 1.5-2 years later, my floor started buckling. I've called several times and they are very polite but they have sent someone out twice to look at the floor and no one ever calls me back in regards to the actual repair. I don't want them to wait until after my warranty is up.
Description of Work: They put in laminate wood flooring in the kitchen.

Gary Novak came and gave me an estimate. They came the next day and did the work, put in quarter rounds and put in laminate over carpet, so that it would look neat for other rooms. Gary also brought in all samples, not just what I asked for, 2 needed assistants and he gave me excellent advise.

From the moment I called for an in-home estimate, to the end of the carpet installation, they were efficient, timely and professional. They did an exceptional job with the installation and were extremely careful not to damage our newly painted walls! Our sales representative Arnie was knowledgeable and did not pressure us at all. I would highly recommend Empire Today!

I wasn t totally satisfied with this service as the man that came out to take up the old rug, didn t get up all the padding, and the new rug felt like it had lumps in it. I complained to Empire and they immediately sent a man back to my home and fixed this for me. They even gave me some extra rug which I used in my living room. I would recommend them and will use them again.
Description of Work: I wanted to get some carpet for a small hallway space so they took up the old rug and installed the new rug. They did this within an hour or so and then left with the old trash in tow.

They are very kind and considerate of their customers. I was so upset when they could not come out that day because of bad storms. I was eight months pregnant and had to try and move things myself. Due to the fact that I was so upset at the delay, they give me a large discount. I guess that really made up for the delay.
Description of Work: They tore out the old carpet and put in new carpet and padding in 3 rooms, 2 bedrooms and my living room.

I was satisfied with Empire. They even came to my house to do an in home estimate and color selection. Then they installed the carpet the next day and it only took them a day to install it. I think their staff is very knowledgeable, friendly and they have good products.
Description of Work: Empire installed new 12 by 12 foot carpet in my dining room and removed the old carpet.

Representative came out on Thursday. Gave me and my husband extensive information on the laminate flooring. Gave us an estimate that was totally unacceptable for a half bath. After my husband haggled with him, he made that infamous phone call to the manager (that all salespeople seem to make) and dropped the price by $400! The work was performed Friday the very next day and I was more than pleased with the results. The floor is beautiful. There was some very ugly looking caulking around the base of my toilet. Since they took up the toilet before laying the flooring and then put it back afterward, the base of the toilet is no longer an eyesore. Workmen did a great job cleaning up after the work was done. I had carpet put down a couple of months ago by the same company, with the same excellent results. Don't be afraid to negotiate a price that's right for you.
Description of Work: Tiled half bath in basement with laminate. Removed, then replaced toilet. Decorative molding added around baseboards.

Would never hire them to do any work in my house!!!!!!
Description of Work: Just getting the quote was a HORRIBLE experience. They enter your house then proceed to use high pressure sales tactics. The salesman kept asking if I was the "primary decision maker in the household" and why did I tell the person on the phone who scheduled the appointment that I was. I was completely intimidated in my own house. Horrible, Horrible, Horrible Experience. I would not recommended them!($2600.)

Their pricing was in a lump sum; I would have rather had everything split up. It was a little confusing. They did give me a discount because I was asking questions about the billing. I do like the blinds very much.
