We had Novakoski flooring replaced all the flooring on a 1st floor, including carpet in our family room and LVT on the rest. They did a great job at a great price and even replaced all the baseboard trim and shoe molding. Dan and his team were polite and a great resource to help us pick out colors, styles and flooring type. We would highly recommend them for your flooring needs!
Description of Work: replaced carpet, LVT flooring, and trim throughout the 1st floor of our house.

Terrible! Very expensive. Paid top dollar but received well below quality work. We approved the two week project then after 6 months and it still not being completed, we had to fire them and find someone else to complete what they botched. Then, caught them lying about us behind our back trying to defend their poor performance.

Description of Work: Installed 2100 sq. feet of high quality hardwood flooring. | |2 week install was stretched to more than 6 weeks. Installers did not show up on scheduled days with no prior notice. | Installers did not know how to use floor leveler compound. Sanded it leaving fine dust everywhere. Did not tape sub floor joints and leveler dripped to lower floor walls and furniture. | |Floating floor method used but 6 mos. later still have planks flexing more than nominal allowed making popping noise. | |Owner showed interest and concern but installers, overall, were unrealiable and unprofessional.

We weren't 100% satisfied. They didn't fit the wood the carpet like they should have. The flooring isn't holding up very well. It was a bamboo floor. It has a whole lot of marks on it. We told them about the carpet and they attempted to fix it right then. They weren't able to fully fix it.

Response from Novakoski Floor Covering Service Inc
This report was posted 2 years after the initial report giving NFCS an "A" rating stating that the customer was extremely pleased with our installation, and would definitely use our business again. (See 2010 report.) The customer did not contact our company with the above complaints. The wood complaints fall under a manufacturing issue, which if contacted, NFCS would have gladly called for an inspector to determine if the wood was defective, and if so, filed a claim for the wood to be replaced if necessary. Regarding the carpet complaint, NFCS was not contacted by the customer at all leaving us to believe for two years that the customer was satisfied with their new flooring.

I spent over $4000 for that work. That went well. They are independently owned business and we deal directly with the owners.

They arrived on time and helped move a cabinet. They started to work right away removing the carpet. The bamboo floor was installed expertly. The whole job was done well and I was consulted on any problems. I definately would use them again.
Description of Work: They removed the kitchen carpet, prepared the floor, installed a bamboo floor, and installed baseboard.

On June 8, 2010, I canceled the order. The owner informed me that he did not know how to go about canceling and that he would get back to me on the issue. He did not return my call so on the next day, after my call, I went into the business. The owner informed me that he needed to withhold $1,200 as a "restocking fee". He told me that the company that NFCS purchases the hardwood from, Shaw Flooring Company, charges them the fee so they need to pass it on to me. They stated that I purchased the products at sale price and the sale ended June 7th. If I had purchased the product the day before and canceled the next day it wouldn?t have been a problem. But since I bought the product and the order was processed the same day the sale ended, I missed out on the opportunity to cancel with out penalty. He did not inform me of this penalty when I placed the order. He asked me to reconsider having the work done. I informed him that I was not working and could not have the work done right now. NFCS cashed my check of $6,000 on June 9, 2010 and did withhold the restocking fee, but for only $878.50. When I inquired about this situation to a different flooring company, they told me that this is not a normal business practice and I should not have to pay. Typically stock companies will reduce the restocking fee rate for the business. June 14, 2010 I informed the owner that I did still want to cancel my order and that I wanted my money back. He refused and I received a check in the mail containing my remaining money. NFCS did not inform me before I placed my order that this fee would incur if I canceled! I would like my money back. UPDATE 11/10/2011 Public Notice: Indiana Law allows hidden restock fees on home improvement items. Novakoski Floor Covering Service (NFCS) of Anderson charged an $878.58 hidden restock fee to this senior citizen, veteran, and single and parent of three adoptive children (ages 10, 11, and 14). Even-though the order was canceled within 24hrs., Small Claims Court ruled that Indiana Law does not protect customers from hidden fees: and, businesses like NFCS are not legally required to reveal restock fees to customers. If you want this law changed, please complain to the Indiana Attorney General (317-232-6330).--------------------------------------------Written by Carrie Dixon

Response from Novakoski Floor Covering Service Inc
Stan & I worked with her for about 1 year, helping her with her flooring choices. She chose to order her flooring on the very last day of the Spring Sale(date of which she knew in advance by several months) at the last hour before closing, and gave us a check for $6000.00 as a down payment. As is our standard practice in our business with a sizeable amount, I deposited the check the next morning. My husband & I worked late Monday evening placing the orders with our reps thereby making sure the materials would be shipped and sale prices secured. Tuesday morning, She came in stating she wanted to cancel the order, stating we were higher than another quote she had been given. After discussing the two quotes, restocking charges due if she cancelled, and benefits of working with a local, family-owned business, she agreed that keeping the order was best. There was no coercion or anything remotely similar. We wanted her to have the best possible job for the amount of money she was spending. The following Friday, she came in to select more flooring samples. Saturday morning she returned a few, keeping the rest for paint choices. The following Monday, she came in stating she definitely wanted to cancel her order, stating the difference between quotes was too much for her. It was at that time she stated she had lost her job the previous Wednesday and that for that and other reasons she could not go through with the order. My husband then told her he would contact the reps and get the exact amount due for the restocking/freight charges. Once again, due to the fact that the orders were shipped immediately to honor the sale pricing, these fees are unavoidable; however, she did not feel she should be responsible for them and told us she would take the necessary means to get the rest of her money. It took a few weeks for Shaw to pick up and receive the goods and give us the amount due for restocking and freight. The amount totaled $878.50. On June 25, we sent a letter to her explaining once again the reasons for the fees and enclosed her refund check, minus the $878.50. Our bank account showed that on July 15 she cashed the check. Upon seeing that, we assumed that she had come to agreement that the charges were her expense and not ours. Restocking fees and freight charges for returned, special order items are standard and unchangeable in any legitimate business. This complaint is very disheartening to us. We pride ourselves on being very customer orientated, and have a strong reputation in Anderson and surrounding cities for being honest, fair and for doing an outstanding job. We spent hours with her, and many of those were after our store closed. We are sorry for her loss of job, but are left with owing Shaw the above stated amount for returned goods. Her request is to reimburse her also is unreasonable and we cannot comply. Rebecca Novakoski-Owner/VP
