After about 3 and half weeks, I realized that Lowe's was not going to call me back. So I called, and they promptly scheduled installation.
Lowe's contracts installation to 3rd parties. In this case, Fairway Installation provided the installation (see separate review). After the installation, the hot water heater pressure dropped considerably, probably by more than half. I asked Fairway if they would backflush the hot water line. They would not do so. I ended up having to pay another plumber additional $200 for backflushing, which fixed the problem.
While it is standard practice for licensed trades to complete their own inspections, Fairway would not do so and indicated it was my responsibility. I indicated that I was not told by either Lowes or Fairway that I would have to administer the inspection. Fairway insists I was told this during installation I would have to administer the inspection. I was never told this. I have done a considerable amount of residential construction in Austin. Inspections associated with trade permits have always been administered by the licensed professional listed on the permit.
When I protested that my having to perform the inspection is an imposition, Fairway indicated they would let the permit expire (ie, the property would become non-compliant) then they hung up on me.
I called Lowe's to speak with them about this, and they were courteous and professional. However, I will not purchase installation services through Lowe's again.
The floors were sold to us by Wade at Lowes. He coordinated the work with the contractors.
Misty and Maria were two other very responsive people in installation sales who checked every step of the way how things were going. Overall we were very pleased with the level of professionalism and quality of work.
