We then visited the Schenectady Floor Covering showroom and spoke with an in-house designer, Emily. She was already up to speed with the information and suggestions given to us by George. Emily had laid out several samples for review. All looked to be good fits for what we had in mind. After some discussion and further suggestions from Emily based on the colors we had, we decided on the pattern and color for both the LVT and the carpet.
Both had to be ordered. Estimated lead time was 1 week to 10 days. It was around the holidays, so we were prepared for some hiccups. We were not disappointed.
Emily called to inform us the LVT would not be available until after the holidays. To their credit, Schenectady Floor called as soon as they were notified by the manufacturer. Delays sometimes happen, in our world, and we appreciated the immediate "heads-up". It's better to know of delays two weeks in advance, rather than the day before.
After the holidays, unfortunately, we received another, very apologetic, call from Emily saying the shipment was going to be further delayed. It seems two manufacturers (one of them the one we were using) were in the middle of a merger and their order-ship-bill process was suffering greatly. Emily suggested some alternatives. We concurred that was probably the best course of action. A couple of weeks later, we visited the showroom. Emily, again, had several suggestions laid out for us. Emily's suggestions were "right on the money." We ordered the replacement LVT.
A week later, George called to schedule an installation date. We could not be there, but we did have a lockbox installed on our front door. Schenectady Flooring used the lockbox, let themselves in, installed everything that was expected, cleaned up and left. When we arrived a few days later, we were very pleased to see everything looking absolutely top-notch.
While at first we were a little apprehensive about an installation when we could not be there, but we needn't have worried. George, the installation crew, Emily, and the rest of the Schenectady Floor Covering Staff took very good care of us. The customer service at the store, and the customer service at the installation site was excellent.
We can recommend Schenectady Floor Covering to our friends, and we will certainly use them again in the future.
"Schenectady Floor Covering sincerely apologizes for any work done that was below expectations. As to the other charges, this is the first time in our 60 plus years that this has come up, and we are taking this very seriously. We have been in contact with the Saratoga Sheriff’s department, offered our complete cooperation, and have been advised to let them complete their investigation and allow due process to take its course."
