From the beginning to the end, Mariann was on top of the project. Even when it turned out we didn't have enough laminate, all I had to do was wait for a further order. She took care of coordinating delivery and the return of the crew to install it. The crews she engaged for the three steps (vinyl, laminate, carpeting) were considerate, knowledgeable and industrious, getting their respective jobs done on time. She apologized for the inconvenience (and didn't charge me anything more), and offered to work with me on the future purchase of an area carpet in that room, when I am ready. The kitchen floor was the most difficult, owing to wooden sills that were flush with the linoleum. This meant that, upon removal of the existing linoleum, the layer underneath had to be scraped off the floorboard. This involved using power tools which kicked up a powerful amount of dust. The cleanup took me three days, as there was a coating of this dust on absoluvely everything in the kitchen, and a dusting of in adjacent rooms as well. I washed down everything, including boxes of pasta and bottles of spices in my pantries, and vacuumed the walls. It prompted me to finish painting the pantry interios, which had to be emptied (the only reason I didn't paint them with the rest of the kitchen earlier this year!), and this kind of propelled me into spring cleaning the likes of which the house hasn't seen in years. Not a bad thing, really. So glad I started with the kitchen, in retrospect, since I would otherwise have been mopping and vacuuming new laminate and carpet in adjacent rooms! Overall, I was extremely pleased with her help, and am very happy with the result. I felt their pricing was lower than the competition I perused - which included Home Depot, Lumber Liquidators and Custom Carpet Center. [As an aside, I paid $35 to have HD measure my floors, as they had a Pergo laminate I was certain I wanted, which I mentioned to the woman who set up the measure. When I got the quote call, they couldn't give me a price, because the laminate was DISCONTINUED!! So, I basically threw $35 away. I cancelled the quote at the store, explaining that the material I wanted was no longer available, and they didn't offer to return my fee. Not happy about that. After all that,I wasn't about to have them install carpeting at a cost that included a $9 per stair charge - !! ]
Description of Work: Mariann Ryan at this store helped me match a competitor's carpeting for a small room, steered me in the direction of vinyl tile for my kitchen and laminate for my family room, and gave me a great rate on in-stock carpeting for a hallway, stairs and upper bedrooms, which just happened to be exactly what I was looking for. She came out and measured, and guided me through the details of laminate and vinyl tile, and arranged for the teams who would install the three flooring types.

I wanted to carpet multiple rooms, but they only had one remnant that would work size wise, so I bought the one room. I went back a few days after install to find more, and found another one for over $600. I then tried to use a coupon for $100 off a purchase of over $1199, and they would not let me since I didn't buy the two carpets on the exact same day. It was ridiculous - I would have if they had them in stock.
Description of Work: Installed carpet in the playroom.

They had done three estimates, they were 2000 cheaper than the highest and 1000 cheaper than from the middle. Everything went perfectly, they came when they said they were going to come and they brought it three guys and didn't screw around, got right to work. Got there at 8 in the morning and were done by 4 in the afternoon with the clean up and everything.
Description of Work: I just had a laminate floor put in my house for 300 square feet. They came and ripped out all the old carpeting, pulled out all the manning, the foam underneath and carpet, then they pulled the staples out of the floor which is a lot of work, then pulled up all the baseboard. Then they put down membrane for quieting and laid the laminate hard wood floor. They put back the baseboard and chopped the carpeting into small pieces so I could get it out to the garbage and they cleaned everything up.

I called manager Mike Matysiak on Tues to see how long it would take to get carpeting once I ordered it. I had a problem with another carpet company and my house was without carpet and in total disarray for over a month. He told me that if I chose something in stock, he could have it installed by the end of the week. I found beautiful carpeting at a great price that was exactly what I wanted and it was in stock! My carpet and padding were installed that Saturday morning by 3 very professional gentlemen. They were friendly and polite and cleaned up when they were finished. They also helped my husband move some furniture and rip out carpet in one bedroom without charging us anything additional. I would highly recommend Carpet Factory Outlet for all your flooring needs!
Description of Work: installed padding and carpet in living room, 2 bedrooms and staircase in my home.

Overall, the experience went well from the carpet sales to installation of a room and a raised platform. The sales person at the Transit Rd location was professional and patient but was matter-of-fact. He was confident that the prices of the store were the best. The prices were good compared to other stores. However, the carpet selection was not as extensive. There was a misunderstanding with the carpeting of the room and the raised platform. Both were to be carpeted but on the schedule day of installation, the crew had less carpeting than needed, delaying the installation. That same day, we worked with the sales person to clear up the miscommunication and to correct the error. At the end of the meeting with the sales person, the final cost of the carpeting was higher than the original because more was needed. Although there was an error, the sales person was able to address and resolve the problem without charging an additional cost for the miscalculation and miscommunication. The following day, the carpet installation went smoothly. The gentleman who installed the carpet was fantastic - very professional but friendly and clean. He did the custom carpeting on the raised platform beautifully. The gentleman spent ~ 4 h alone completing the job. An unexpected event was that the installation took place earlier than scheduled (carpeting was scheduled to be done in the afternoon, but the installer called and arrived in the late morning). Even with a couple of the miscommunications, we are pleased with the sales person and the carpet installer. For future rug and carpet purchases, we plan to return there.
Description of Work: Carpet sales with the representative went well. The sales representative was a bit unfriendly at first but warmed up. We were able to browse their selection with little to no pressure. The sales representative was able to resolve the miscommunication with the carpet measurements and installation to 'make it right.' With the installation, we were very pleased with the work of the installer. He came alone and did the job professionally, cleanly, and efficiently. Another miscommunication happened with the scheduled time of installation (PM versus AM).

The only problem I had with the service was that they was late. They told us that somebody we be out there by 3 and they didnt come to our home until 6. They ended up leaving our house by 9. As you can tell it was a long day. Just for the record they did have some trouble with a job before mine which cause their tardiness. Regardless of that, they still ended up doing a good job. When they did come, they went striaght to work. They removed the old "ugly" carpet and put it in the brand new carpet that included padding. The whole experience was ok, I just wish they came on time.

Carpet Factory hastily laid the carpeting on the stairs and left gaps between carpet edge and baseboards and then burned the seams in the hallway. Although they later repaired these flaws, their poor attitude and shoddy workmanship was very frustrating.
Description of Work: Carpet Factory Outlet installed commercial grade carpeting in the hallway and stairs. They charged $1800 for the carpet and labor.
