Do not use this company!! The installers are on drugs! Left all these pills in my bathroom, Xanax Bar, oxycodone and alprazolam. The guy could barely stand, slurred speech and that was not his name that’s on the pill bottle. I called the owner who didn’t care and let him go work another install right after mine.

Response from PAYNE CARPET OUTLET INC
Thank you for submitting your review. We feel it is necessary to add and clarify some information from this review. First, the installation was completed on May 11, 2021. When you contacted us regarding a concern with an installer the day of the job, an owner immediately went to your home and the installer was sent home. He did not report to another job after. We spoke with you at that time to ensure everything else with the installation was correct and apologized for his actions. The installer in your review no longer completes any jobs for us, nor is employed by us, as this occurred 3 years ago. Upon reading your review today (4/18/24), we contacted you to see if there was an issue with your carpet that we could assist with, however, you did not wish to speak with us. As a small business, we strive to provide excellent customer service. We addressed this issue and installer as soon as you contacted us on May 11, 2021 and ensured everything else was correct with your installation. If you are experiencing any issues with your carpet, please contact us.

We gave Paynes Carpet Outlet on Military Rd. Niagara Falls ny a 9x12 carpet to clean. While we were unrolling it we had to vacuum it as we went because of all the rug yarns from other rugs on the our rug. The carpet is more stained than when we left it with them. We will NOT use them again and do not recommend them for carpet cleaning. We now have to buy a new rug since ours is ruined by Payne’s Carpet Outlet.

We are sorry to hear that you were unsatisfied with your area rug after cleaning. You called us after we had cleaned the rug once and we informed you that it was very stained and you acknowledged how bad it was. We let you know that we were going to clean it a second time to try and remove the stains further. Additionally, the rug was vacuumed before being returned, however it is possible that small fibers got on it. We take pride in all the work that we do and strive to provide the best service. We apologize if these set-in stains were not able to be fully removed.

I recently had a sheet vinyl floor installed by Payne's. I paid the extra $600 to have them do the tear out and prep work of the sub floor. My floor never squeaked a bit prior to the install, Bill Sr admits this is true. It squeaks like crazy now. I have been put off for quite some time now, listening to one excuse after another as well as ridiculous reasons why this is not their fault. When I asked Bill Jr to explain to me why my floor is squeaking he got frustrated, called me an a#@hole and said "see you in court". They refuse to tear it up and fix it. They offer no solutions and no compensation. To add insult to injury I damaged the flooring just by pushing my dishwasher into place. I will be filing with the BBB soon and spreading the word everywhere possible to not patronize this business.

Description of Work: Recarpeting of LR, DR, 3BR and small front hall. Everyone was great to deall with except I wasn't too satisfied with lead installer. I had a problem with them laying the carpeting it the small hall because they laid it over the existing linoleum and left knowing that there wasn't sufficient clearing for the two doors. Subsequent responses dealing with this lead were less that pleasant. Eventually everything worked out to my satisfaction dealing with owners and workmen, but lead was obstinate and spent too much time on breaks.

the process was streamlined to a science They were friendly with my child and my dog which is important when strangers are in your home. All members of both crews were clean cut and task oriented. I was comfortable having them in my home.
Description of Work: Helped make decision on what type of rug fiber and style were best for my family lifestyle. No sales pressure or tactics. One team came in. They moved my big furniture that I could not do myself for a small charge. And did the tear out. Another team came in and payed the new pad and carpet.

We had carpeting installed in one downstairs room and also in the entire second floor including the stairs. They were very prompt and courteous both in the store and while here measuring. I needed a lot of floor covered so I was looking for good, but fairly inexpensive, carpet. There was never any sales pressure to choose more expensive carpet. The installers came when they said they would and did an excellent job installing all the carpet. They even split the install up into two days to help us out due to moving in. After installing the carpet (which looks great-can't even see the seams!) they cleaned everything up and left the place looking clean and neat.
Description of Work: Carpet installed in family room (previously a garage), stairs, two hallways, and four bedrooms.

We went to Paynes because my husband has used them in the past and we were in the market for new laminate flooring. We saw a coupon in a local paper that would take an additional 100.00 off the price and they were clearing out some Shaw laminate flooring. We went to Paynes and told them that we have five children and two dogs and needed something durable. They were nice enough to let us take sample floors home so we could decide what we liked and then we set up an appointment so that our floors could be measured. The price was so good we decided to do almost our entire downstairs. In April, they came and installed our new laminate floor/moulding and it looked terrific! We loved the color and it made our house look brand new. Within a week, we had a crack in one of the boards so I called and they came out and said the piece had been cut wrong and they replaced it with no problem. About a month later, I noticed another two pieces seemed to be raising and they were very noticeable to me. As great as the floor looked, my eyes went to those two flaws whenever I looked down. I called Paynes and spoke with someone who told me that they would get back to me. I heard nothing. I called back again and spoke with someone else who told me they would pass the message along. Bill Jr. came over to look at my floor and told me that water has gotten under my floor in those two places and that I should bring my dehumidifier out of the basement and into my kitchen to suck the moisture out of the air. He told me to let him know how it works out but I was disgusted with him passing the problem back to us. My husband and I were skeptical but we tried it. It made no difference. It is now winter and we have a wood burning stove that sends out a dry heat that should have easily repaired the problem if wetness got into the floor. I feel that when I went into their store and told them I have five kids and two dogs, it was their job to recommend a floor that would hold up to what our family dishes out. There is no way to avoid getting my floor dirty or occasionally wet but we have had no plumbing problems that would have led to my floor beginning to come up. I am disappointed that my floor looks the way it does and will not recommend them to my friends because I am not a satisfied customer.
Description of Work: We had new laminate flooring installed in our family room, kitchen, dining room and foyer as well as all new shoe moulding. We removed the previous floor since they wanted to charge an additional fee.

The overall experience was excellent. We were able to bring many flooring samples home to preview them in the natural lighting of our home. They were very informative in explaining the various grades of flooring available and the durability of each category. They gave a prompt and accurate estimate and immediately scheduled the installation. On the day of the installation, they arrived on time and immediately got to work. When we determined that the base coving wasn't exactly the color match that we wanted, they readily accommodated us by special ordering new coving. When the new coving arrived, they immediately scheduled an appointment to have it installed. Again, they arrived on schedule and were efficient in the installation of the product. Both times, they were very courteous and professional. They left the worksite neat and clean. This company was easy to deal with and made us feel, that they wanted us to be satisfied with the job. We will definitely be future customers.
Description of Work: Installed underlayment over an existing kitchen floor. Cut and fitted new vinyl flooring and applied coving around the perimeter. They moved the stove and refrigerator and replaced them after the floor was installed. They cleaned up, after the work was completed.

I was very satisfied with the work done by Payne Carpet. We had them do three rooms for us. We dictated the schedule due to our availability. They took care of the disposal of all of the old flooring. They kept the place neat and tidy while doing the work.
Description of Work: Payne Carpet installed hardwood flooring in two rooms and carpeting in one room.

I had a wonderful experience with Payne Carpet. They took time to clean up when they were done putting the carpet in. The price estimate was the same as what I paid.
Description of Work: Payne Carpet removed the old carpet & installed new in one room only.
