I made several visits to B&D's showroom to be certain of the carpet choice. It's a room with a lot of traffic from a large Golden Retriever going in and out many times a day. Each time the salesmen were very helpful and generous with their time. After I made my choice they came right on time to measure for the installation. Within a week a time for installation was arranged. The installers removed the old carpet and pad, installed the new pad and brought in the new carpet. Unfortunately it arrived from the factory 4 inches short! Nothing could be done other than to place a rush order for the replacement, cover the tacks with padding, replace some furniture so we could use the room and then wait. That was Thursday and on Monday Bob called to report the new carpet was in and could be installed the next morning. This was done quickly and neatly. I wasn't charged for any furniture moving and was able to apply the $50 coupon from Angie's List. All in all, a good experience!
Description of Work: We had old carpet and padding removed and new carpet installed in our family room.
A representative came on time to estimate cost of wall-to-wall carpet removal with stripping, padding and tacks, plus other loose rugs. He called next day with an estimate of $375, which seemed reasonable to me, so I set up an appointment for the following week from 1-3 pm. They called at 3 to explain they'd be an hour late, which I appreciated. They came at bit past the hour. The work was done quickly with a 3-man crew, and they cleaned up quite well and also helped move a hutch and drawers which were too heavy for me. The final cost was the estimate of $375.

I would recommend this company and definitely plan to use their services again. Their workers were very professional and efficient and both of the rooms they carpeted look very nice. It was wonderful to find a company that charged a fair price and did not mind coming into Boston.
Description of Work: They tore up the old carpet and replaced carpeting in two rooms within my 1375-square-foot home. I also purchased the new carpet from them.

Although B&D does not do this type of work, they referred me to one of their installers who did the job on his own. He showed up as scheduled to do an estimate and ended up performing the work on the spot. Very, very happy with the quality and the timeliness of the work. ($150.00)

I had been trying for weeks to get carpet installed in our new basement, but to no avail. I finally checked Angie's List and called B&D House of Carpets on Thursday and spoke to the owner, Bob. He was professional, personable, and I knew instantly that it was worth the drive to Burlington. I drove out Friday morning and met with Joel and was able to get in and out in a relatively quick amount of time. They ordered the carpet and installed it on Tuesday -- only 4 days after I went into the store. Absolutely fantastic service and I will not go anywhere else for my flooring needs. They also honored the 10% Angie's discount mentioned here when I printed out the page.

We met Joel Shapiro at the B&D House of Carpets showroom. Joel helped us select a Shaw couture carpet with Stainmaster nylon fiber and a Stainmaster carpet cushion. We are very happy with the carpet. Joel seemed a bit reluctant to apply the 10% discount offered to Angie's list members. He insisted that we print the discount information provided by the Angie's list web site, then applied the discount only to the price of the carpet, excluding the price of the cushion and labor.

I went to B&D on a Saturday and had a great experience with Dot who spent a long time explaining all the various types and grades of carpet. I had a lot of questions and was able to take home four large samples that day. I was then able to order by phone, have the room measured and have the carpet delivered and installed in less than three weeks. The installation went very smoothly, except for a small mark they left on the wall. It was a difficult install however because it was on the third floor and the room itself had a lot of angles in it. I had to pay an extra for labor though because the total did not meet the minimum requirement for free labor included. I would use this company again because of the wonderful personalized service, a very family operation.

Randy came with 2 men and knew exactly what to do. He had to be careful since there are 4 registers in the room. Carpet was flat and edges re-trimmed in 25 minutes. He even negotiated with the owner to reduce my charge since it was only a minor job. He saved me approx $250 over the quoted rate.

They started the job on the agreed to date. The installer was very professional. The installation was adequate, other than the subfloor leveling with was poor. We were not given a chance to comment on the leveling of the floor before the finish surface was installed. Repeated attempts to contact B & D finally resulted in them shrugging off the job saying they did the best they could.
Description of Work: Took up old linoleum flooring in hallway and replaced with sheet vinyl. Flooring was installed on top of concrete slab. One area of hallway has noticeable dip that B & D stated they would "level off as best they could." They made minimal or no attempt to level the floor subsurface in this area.

We selected B & D based on the 19 reports listed here on Angie's List. After reading the previous accounts, it was as if we already knew Joel (and his cats) for years! Joel took the time to educate us on carpet types, pad types and options. He spent the time to listen to what we wanted, often providing key insights into understanding the carpet selection and installation process. He eagerly offered samples (we left with about 6) to try, and we could drop them back in a week. We found the carpet & color that we liked and knew the pad we wanted (given our pets), so we returned to arrange for a measuring of the living room and a quote. We wanted to have someone come on a weekend, which isn't typically done, however Joel said Dick (the VP) would come before going to work to make the measurements himself! The crew arrived within a half hour of the promised time (between 8 & 9 AM). They moved the furniture we contracted for and an extra piece as well. Both were efficient.
Description of Work: We had our living room, 15' by 22' carpeted with Dupont Stainmaster XtraLife Tactesse continuous filament Nylon by Shaw. We choose the Stainmaster pad with a barrier to prevent pet accidents from penetrating into the pad. Getting samples of carpet was easy and I felt that the customer service was A+. We told Joel when we came into the store, that my wife and I had found them well recommended on Angie's List. He knew of the List and commented to some nearby colleagues that more customers had arrived from references made on the List. Once we had a quote on the work, we wanted to schedule the installation about a month from the time we placed our order. This was so we could still get the sale price and have a month to pay for Christmas, before adding the cost of the carpet. All of which was no problem with Joel. I am grateful to the List Members to providing such useful information. My wife and I were SO impressed with B & D, we didn't go looking for another vendor at all.

IN AND OUT OF THE STORE IN 20 MIN. THEY CAME OUT WITHIN A WEEK, ON TIME, INSTALLED A BEAUTIFUL CARPET IN ABOUT AN HOUR, CLEANED UP, TOOK THE OLD CARPET AND LEFT. I'D RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE AND USE THEM AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.

WE USED B & D BECAUSE ALL OF THE ANGIE'S LIST COMMENTS ABOUT THEM WERE GREAT. WE HAD SOME PROBLEMS IN COMMUNICATION THAT WERE CAUSED BY JOEL FAILING TO WRITE UP THE ORDER PROPERLY AND GIVE US A COPY. ORIGINALLY WE ORDERED TWO DIFFERENT CARPETS, BUT THEN CHANGED OUR MINDS AND WANTED ONLY ONE STYLE. I FORGOT ABOUT THE CHANGE AND THE SECOND STYLE WAS CUT AND READY TO LAY SO I DECIDED TO ACCEPT THE WRONG CARPET AS IT WAS NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO MAKE THEM TAKE IT BACK. WE HAD A MINOR PROBLEM WITH THE FLOOR, BUT THAT WAS NOT THEIR FAULT. IT COST A LITTLE EXTRA AS THEY HAD TO THEN PUT DOWN A SUB-FLOOR. ONE OTHER PROBLEM WAS THERE WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING ABOUT MOVING ALL THE FURNITURE, BUT THEY RESOLVED THAT RIGHT AWAY TO OUR SATISFACTION. THERE WERE TWO SETS OF INSTALLERS, ONE FOR THE FLOOR AND 3 FOR THE CARPET. THEY ALL DID A GREAT JOB AND WERE A PLEASURE TO HAVE IN THE HOUSE. EVEN WITH THE PROBLEMS WE HAD, I WOULD USE THEM AGAIN.

1. JOEL, OUR SALESPERSON, WAS A REAL GENTLEMAN. CAME ON TIME, HONORED THE ANGIE'S LIST COUPON WITHOUT QUESTION, AND WAS ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE OUR TIME SCHEDULE. 2. UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE INSTALLATION. IT SEEMS THAT WE SHOULD HAVE HAD OUR HEAT INSTALLED BEFORE THE CARPET, BUT JOEL HAD TOLD US TO GET THE CARPET IN FIRST, AND INSTALL THE HEAT AFTER THE CARPET WAS INSTALLED. BOTTOM LINE - THE CARPET WARPED THE DAY AFTER INSTALLATION BECAUSE THE ROOM WASN'T WARM ENOUGH. 3. I CALLED JOEL, WHO AGREED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HE SUGGESTED WAITING A MONTH OR SO TO ALLOW FOR THE CARPET TO SHOW ALL ITS FLAWS FIRST. 4. A MONTH LATER, WE SCHEDULED THE REPAIR. TWO HOURS OF WORK LATER, OUR CARPET LOOKS GREAT! IT'S A RARE COMPANY THAT KEEPS ITS WORD AND FIXES A PROBLEM RIGHT!

WHEN MY MEASUREMENTS WERE A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM HIS, HE EXPLAINED HOW THE CALCULATIONS FOR EACH ROOM WERE DETERMINED. I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT CARPETING AND INSTALLATION FROM HIM. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAD AROSE FROM THE INSTALLERS FINDING A FOAM LAYER, GLUED TO THE FLOOR, UNDER THE CARPET PADDING. AS A RESULT, THEY HAD TO USE THE ORIGINAL PAD RATHER THAN A NEW ONE. HE DEDUCTED THE COST OF THE PAD FROM THE ORIGINAL ESTIMATE. HE ALSO GAVE A COUPON DISCOUNT. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE RESULT. AFTER THE CARPET WAS INSTALLED, HE EXPLAINED WARRANTIES AND HOW TO CARE FOR THE CARPET.
Description of Work: CARPETED 4 ROOMS, A HALLWAY, AND CLOSETS. JOEL SHAPIRO SPENT 3/4 OF AN HOUR SHOWING ME THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CARPET. HE EXPLAINED WHICH ONES WORKED BEST IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS, AND WHEN I ASKED, RECOMMENDED A MIDDLE PRICED CARPET, FOR MY CONDO.

HE DIDN'T TRY TO STEER US TO THE HIGHER-PRICED STYLES, WHICH I APPRECIATED. WE NEEDED THE CARPET QUICKLY AND THEY WERE VERY ACCOMMODATING, GUARANTEEING THAT IT WOULD BE INSTALLED BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS.

GREAT EXPERIENCE. WE WILL GO BACK TO THEM IN A HEARTBEAT. OUR COUNTRY NEEDS MORE FAMILY BUSINESSES LIKE THIS THAT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
Description of Work: THEY REPLACED THE CARPET IN OUR ENTIRE HOUSE. THEY DID A VERY PROFESSIONAL JOB VERY COMPETITIVE PRICES, AND A VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE SALES PERSON (JOE). HE LISTENED TO OUR NEEDS AND THEN STARTED OFF SHOWING MID-RANGE CARPET AND THEN SUGGESTED THAT BASED ON WHETHER WE WANTED TO GO UP OR DOWN IN PRICE HE COULD SUGGEST APPROPRIATE CARPET. HE DID IT VERY PROFESSIONALLY AND WITHOUT MAKING US FEEL THAT WE WERE DOWNGRADING WHEN WE ASKED ABOUT A LOWER PRICED CARPET. WE LOVED JOE, HE WAS THE REASON WE GAVE THEM THE BUSINESS. THERE WAS A SLIGHT ERROR IN CALCULATIONS DURING THE ESTIMATE AND EVEN AFTER THE FULL PAYMENT WAS COMPLETE, A REFUND WAS GIVEN INSTANTLY. JUST A GREAT EXPERIENCE.
