Rader's Carpet Service

I WOULD CLASSIFY MY EXPERIENCE AS AVERAGE. THE CARPET INSTALLATION WENT WELL, BUT THE SEAMS ARE MORE VISIBLE THAN I EXPECTED. THE ASSISTANT LEFT LARGE DIRTY HAND PRINTS ON NEWLY PAINTED WHITE DOORS. THEY WERE VERY PUNCTUAL AND THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE, BUT I EXPECTED A BIT HIGHER QUALITY. INSTALLATION.

I WOULD NOT HIRE MR. RADER AGAIN BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE WITH THE PHONE CALL TELLING ME HIS VAN BROKE DOWN THE DAY BEFORE, LEAVING ME WONDERING WHY HE DIDN'T CALL THEN INSTEAD OF 6 HOURS BEFORE I WAS GOING TO HAVE FURNITURE DELIVERED. MR. RADER DID A GOOD JOB AND HIS PRICES WERE REASONABLE.

THEY SENT US TO A STORE TO LOOK AT OPTIONS FOR THE VINYL. HE CALLED AND DID THE WORK ALL IN ONE DAY. WE WERE GENERALLY PLEASED WITH THE WORK, BUT THEY DO NOT CLEAN UP AFTER THEMSELVES. IT TOOK US A FEW HOURS TO CLEAN UP. HE SAID THAT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT THEY GENERALLY DO. HE WAS VERY NICE, THEY WORKED EFFICIENTLY.

MY GARAGE, DINING ROOM & KITCHEN WERE LEFT A MESS WITH SAWDUST EVERYWHERE. THERE WAS OBVIOUSLY NO ATTEMPT TO CLEAN IT UP. I FOUND AT LEAST 10 NAILS IN MY CARPETING THAT WERE APPARENTLY USED TO INSTALL TRIM. THE WRONG TRIM PIECES WERE INSTALLED INITIALLY, AND IN SOME PLACES WERE NOT INSTALLED AT ALL. I HAD TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL MATERIALS, AFTER BEING TOLD BY THE OWNER THAT THE MISTAKE WAS MY FAULT. (HE TOLD ME EXACTLY WHAT TO ORDER). OVERALL, I WAS NOT PLEASED. MAYBE HIS CARPET SERVICE IS BETTER. I WOULD NOT HIRE HIM AGAIN. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE. I AM GLAD THE JOB IS FINALLY COMPLETED.

TWO GUYS WORKED FAST AND DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB IN ALL APPLICATIONS. REPAIR IS VIRTUALLY INVISIBLE. THEY HAD TO MOVE WASHER AND DRYER AND DID SO WITHOUT DAMAGE TO WALLS OR HARDWOOD FLOORS. THEY ALSO HAD TO MOVE BIG FURNITURE IN THE BEDROOM. I THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE ALL DAY, BUT IT DIDN'T EVEN TAKE ALL MORNING. WE HAVE NO COMPLAINTS AND WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN.

LARRY PROMPTLY RETURNS CALLS, USUALLY IN THE EVENING, AND IS PROMPTLY ONSITE THE DAY YOU REQUEST. HE AND HIS PARTNER LAID ALL OF MY CARPET AND WOOD FLOOR IN ONE DAY (STARTED AT 7 A.M. AND WAS COMPLETE BY 4 P.M. THAT EVENING).

HE WAS HONEST THAT THE REPAIR COULD BE DONE, BUT WOULD NOT LOOK REAL NICE BECAUSE OF DISCOLORATION, ETC. HE DIDN'T CHARGE US FOR THIS SERVICE CALL, BUT WORKED WITH US TO DO CARPET REPLACEMENT. WE REPLACED CARPETING ON CURVED STAIRCASE AND 20 X 10 ROOM. EXCELLENT SERVICE. VERY COMPETITIVE PRICING. VERY FAST AND EFFICIENT. WOULDN'T USE ANYBODY ELSE FOR THIS TYPE OF WORK.

ALTHOUGH WE INITIALLY HAD A MISUNDERSTANDING ABOUT WHEN THE INSTALLATION WOULD TAKE PLACE (WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN A MISUNDERSTANDING ON MY PART), LARRY FIT ME INTO HIS FULL SCHEDULE, ARRIVED EARLY FOR THE APPOINTMENT, AND FINISHED EARLY. THEY PICKED UP MY NEW CARPET FROM THE STORE FROM WHICH I HAD PURCHASED IT. THEY EVEN HELPED ME BUNDLE UP MY OLD CARPET SO THAT IT WOULD BE PICKED UP BY THE GARBAGE COLLECTOR. I REFERRED HIM TO MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE AGAIN.

LARRY IS A HARD WORKER WITH 20 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. HE WAS NEAT AND REMOVED ALL SCRAPS. HE IS EXTREMELY ACCURATE IN MEASURING CARPET TO BE ORDERED, NO WASTE. SAVED MONEY DOING INTERNET ORDER AND HAVING LARRY INSTALL IT. WHOLE JOB DONE IN REASONABLE (QUICK) TIME. LOOKS GREAT. WE RECENTLY HAD A BAR INSTALLED AND NEEDED CARPET REPAIRS. HE DID A GREAT JOB. NO ONE WILL NOTICE WHERE THE REPAIR WAS NEEDED. HE RESPONDS IMMEDIATELY TO CALLS FOR SERVICE AND IS QUICK, PROMPT, AND TALENTED IN HIS PROFESSION. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE. PRICING IS FAIR, ALWAYS PROMPT, GOOD HELP. SITE IS ALWAYS CLEAN AFTER HE LEAVES.

LARRY ARRIVED EARLY (CALLED US FIRST). TOOK ONLY ONE HOUR TO DO THE JOB. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF THEY HAD SHOE COVERS, BUT SINCE WE WERE GETTING THE CARPETS CLEANED LATER IT DIDN'T MATTER. DID A VERY GOOD JOB. PLAN TO USE AGAIN.

LARRY RADER DID VERY NICE WORK IN REPAIRING OUR CARPET FROM WHERE OUR DOG HAD CHEWED A HOLE. HE RETURNED MY CALL PROMPTLY AND I WAS ABLE TO GET THE JOB SCHEDULED AND COMPLETED IN LESS THAN A WEEK. THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK WAS VERY GOOD AND I COULD NOT DETECT THE PATCH FROM THE REST OF THE CARPET. HE DOES HAVE A MINIMUM FEE OF $100 AND I WISH HE HAD TOLD ME THIS WHEN WE SCHEDULED THE WORK, BUT I STILL WOULD HAVE WENT WITH HIM. MEMBERS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE MINIMUM FEE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY HAVE VERY SMALL CARPET REPAIRS.

PROMPT SERVICE, CARPETING ARRIVED EARLIER THAN EXPECTED SO THEY WERE ABLE TO INSTALL EARLIER THAN ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED. I WAS PLEASED WITH THE PRICE. THEY FOLLOWED THROUGH AND DID WHAT THEY SAID WOULD DO. I WOULD USE THEM AGAIN AND WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO OTHER PEOPLE.

I WAS GRATEFUL THAT HE WAS WILLING TO LAY THE USED CARPET AND DIDN'T COME OUT TO MEASURE OR LOOK AHEAD OF TIME. WHEN THE ACTUAL PRICE CAME OUT OVER THE ESTIMATE, LARRY WAS WILLING TO MEET US HALFWAY EVEN THOUGH I WAS INACCURATE IN MY MEASUREMENTS. HE WAS VERY PLEASANT TO WORK WITH. I WOULD GIVE HIM ALL "A"S, BUT THERE WERE SOME BLACK HANDPRINTS ON EACH OF THE DOORS THEY TOOK OFF, THEY CAME OFF WITH WINDEX.

FIRST CLASS OPERATION. DOES A GREAT JOB AT A FAIR PRICE. WOULD USE AGAIN AND RECOMMEND TO OTHERS. VERY DEPENDABLE, NEAT AND PROFESSIONAL.

IT WAS A PRETTY TRICKY JOB BECAUSE HE HAD TO MATCH EXISTING CARPET WITH THE NEW CARPET, SEAM THE CARPET TOGETHER AND CARPET IN TWO CLOSET AREAS. LARRY WORKED QUICKLY AND CAREFULLY AND EVERYTHING LOOKED PERFECT WHEN HE FINISHED. HE MADE IT LOOK LIKE THE AREAS WERE ALL CARPETED AT THE SAME TIME. HIS PRICE WAS WELL WORTH THE WORK. I'VE RECOMMENDED LARRY TO TWO OTHERS WHO WERE BOTH HAPPY WITH HIS WORK.

LARRY AND HIS ASSOCIATE DID A TERRIFIC JOB, WERE VERY HELPFUL. WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE.

VERY PLEASED. HE CALLED BACK QUICKLY AFTER I LEFT A MESSAGE, HE SHOWED UP ON TIME, AND HE DID A GOOD JOB.

IT TOOK THEM TIME TO RETURN MY CALLS. IT MAY HAVE BEEN BECAUSE OF THE RAIN.

ON TIME AS PROMISED, QUALITY WORK, 2-MAN FAMILY OPERATION, VERY PROFESSIONAL. I WILL DEFINITELY USE AGAIN. I DON'T BELIEVE, THOUGH, THAT I RECEIVED MY $20 ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT. HE SAID IT WAS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE HE GAVE ME ALTHOUGH NOT DEDUCTED ON MY ITEMIZED BILL. I WOULD STILL USE AGAIN. IT'S HARD TO FIND SOMEONE WHO JUST INSTALLS CARPETING. MOST OF THE PLACES JUST INSTALL THE CARPETING THEY SELL.

DEPENDABLE, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WE'VE USED HIM AND BOTH TIMES WE WERE VERY PLEASED.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY. HE IS VERY DEPENDABLE AND FRIENDLY. HE DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB.

BECAUSE IT WAS ON THE EXTERIOR, APPOINTMENTS HAD TO BE CHANGED DUE TO RAIN. ONE DAY HE CALLED AND CAME OUT THE NEXT HALF HOUR. HE ALSO HAULED THE OLD CARPET AWAY.

HE WILL COME BACK TO DO THE REST OF THE HOUSE.

COULDNT BELIEVE HOW FAST HE DID IT. A GOOD EXPERIENCE OVERALL

LARRY AND JIM SHOWED UP A LITTLE EARLY. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. I WAS IMPRESSED WITH THEIR PROFESSIONALISM. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO HIRE THEM AGAIN.
