John did an excellent job in measuring my flooring. The material I choose for my flooring was of the utmost superior quality. The two gentlemen installers were very professional and did an AWESOME job and they arrived the time they said they would. I would definitely be using them again in the future for flooring in my bedrooms. I highly recommend this company!!

From day one this company was great! Barb was wonderful in selecting the flooring, John was great in measuring the job. The 2 men who installed the floors were very kind and professional and did a remarkable job -- the helped get my cat out of the air duct after she went down a vent while they were working! I LOVE my new floors and will definitely be using them again in the near future to replace the floors in my kitchen and mudroom!

The folks at Permanent Floors Carpet One did an excellent job helping me finish a flooring project in my kitchen and selecting and installing indoor/outdoor carpeting in my sun room. They helped with some finishing touches in my kitchen, when I became dissatisfied with another provider and helped me make the right choice for the carpet in our sun room. They helped us make the right choice, communicated well and delivered on-time - as promised and everything looks great. Their salesman Denis lives nearby and came out a few times to make sure everything went according to plan! We would certainly recommend and use Permanent Floor Carpet One again in the future.

Permanent floors is well organized. This is the second time I have contracted them for flooring in the last three years. Work was done timely with cleanup each day when completed. Technicians were friendly and watched out for my dogs. They educated me on many aspects of flooring instillation. I highly recommend this company.

They are a wealth of knowledge for all of us here too. You can't be in business as long as we have without great repeat customers like you and without having smart, conscientious employees/technicians like Jimmy and Al. We hope you enjoy your new vinyl floor for years to come! Thanks, Shelly

Shelly was amazing to work with and extremely helpful and responsive. We carpeted a master bedroom, closet and a flight of stairs. I thought their selection was broad and we found exactly what we wanted for both areas. Install was great, too - honestly the most professional install we've ever had. Having just moved to the area, this is going to be my carpet store as I gradually replace the carpet in the rest of the house.

While in the showroom, the saleswoman was upfront and informed me of the charge to move the appliances & toilet (It was well worth it). When the person came to measure the person was on time. I asked a lot of questions, (e.g. transition into the next room, color of metal transition, the labor process, number of days it will take etc...). I told the person that I would remove the footers of the baseboards(save about $150 or more). I also requested a different metal transition color. When I decided to go with them, I made sure the metal transition color was listed on the work order. The 2 men who did the work were outstanding. They were prompt. If I had any questions they answered. They were done 1/2 day earlier than expected. Note I received 2 additional estimates too. The 1 estimate was a lot more. The 2nd estimate was about $400 - $600 more. But that estimate included them removing the footers. However, I was not pleased with the customer service with the 2nd estimate
Description of Work: I had my kitchen floor and 2 bathroom floors done with vinyl tile. They were able to go over the existing linoleum sheet flooring.

Perfectly well. I chose Permanent Floors, not through Angie's List, but through online searching for carpet stores that had wool carpeting to offer. I only found a very few carpet stores in the Cleveland area that sold wool wall to wall carpeting (and certainly not the big box stores). The sales lady at Permanent Foors was pleasant to work with and very accommodating of my needs. The installers were very skilled professionally, friendly and helpful, making sure every detail was taken care of. The job turned out beautiful and "first class".

Thank you for your business! So glad you love your new floor.
Excellent product and services! I had all of my carpeting replaced by them and from beginning to end, the experience was wonderful. Their showroom has every type of flooring and tile that you can imagine, and Shelly and Barb were expert in their knowledge and so helpful in guiding me to the right carpeting. Thank you!!!
Description of Work: Carpeting for all bedrooms, hallway and stairs
The ordering and installation went excellent! I received a call only 3 weeks later to set up the installation. The installers moved everything and were efficient.
Description of Work: I recarpeted all of my bedrooms (4) and hallway. I wanted a runner done on the stairway with wide 2" banding on the edges. Shelly, Barb and Ryan were so very helpful and made recommendations for me. They pointed me in the right direction for the carpet selection, considering my budget, style and the quality I needed.
Impressed. Nothing short of 'impressed'. Ryan and Shelly are our main points of contact and we've never been disappointed. We've had over 3,000 sq ft of carpeting installed and about 300 sq ft of hardwood installed, 600 sq ft of hardwood refinished, and 400 sq ft of vinyl tile in orders. We will never stray from them and look forward to using them for our next project in the Spring. Pricing can't be beat. Service is beyond exceptional. Selection is boundless. Expertise and helpfulness in choosing is unsurpassed. I highly recommend their company, and their team of trusted professionals, for any, and all, flooring purchases/installs. They are simply the best.

With installation, two very polite men arrived in the morning. They Introduced themselves, and immediately went to work. Yes the hammering made noise, but they were still considerate of the little ones and pets in our home. They worked diligently to complete the job and cleaned up after themselves. Our family is VERY pleased with all aspects of this job. It looks better than we imagined! They are professionals and experts in their field. We certainly hope to use PFCO again in the future.
Description of Work: Permanent Floors Carpet One 5620 Ridge Rd Parma, Ohio, 44129 As a RETURNING customer, I felt that both times of service were soo professionally completed that i needed to say Thank you! previously we had tile installed in a new basement bath. the tile 2 years later still looks brand new ...even with very heavy traffic, pets and young children. For this new Job, They recommended and gave examples of carpet to meet our remodeling needs of our newly finished third floor. They had a beautiful selection of options and a helpful website to brainstorm! PFCO AGAIN answered all of our questions kindly and they were very considerate of what our budget was, the look/needs we were trying to achieve and understanding of our contractor's schedule. They gave us personalized service, unlike "big box" experiences when we were looking for ideas. They measured the room at our convenience, ordered and installed the carpet.

I work in a small home office and we needed the first floor of our carpet replaced before a big out of town client was due to visit and this work needed to be done very quickly. All was well at first. They came out right away and quoted me at $2500 and ensured that if I placed the order now they would have plenty of time to receive and install the carpet before our big visit. Once I agreed and they charged my card the down payment, I get a phone call almost a week later telling me that their distributor mis-quoted and that the new price is $3300. I was upset because I felt like this was a bait and switch since they knew I was in a bind, plus I didn't see how it was our fault that they didn't get their numbers correct. If our business misquoted our clients you better believe we would be eating that cost. However, we eventually negotiated to split the increase and he ensured me that all was well with our deadline. Two days before they are scheduled to install, four days before my deadline, they tell me that they can't get the carpet in time even though UPS offers NDA and Saturday delivery. They threw their distributor under the bus yet refused to let me contact them to see if I could get the carpet shipped direct through our UPS account. They were completely unwilling to work with me on installing another day and gave me no other options. I could tell that they didn't want to do the work due to their previous mistakes making the job less profitable for them. I understand that to a point, but as a I now have to explain to my boss why the carpet is not being replaced it's my *** on the line. Bottom Line: Shady business practices that will leave you in the lurch.

We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and feel absolutely horrible for the position it put your company in. We are not the type of company that would act unethically in the way described here or in any other way--we are a family business that loves working together and values above all else putting smiles on the faces of our customers. If we were the type of company that tries to trick people or act "Shady" then we would not have been around for 70 years and we never would received all the glowing reviews you see on this site and many others. The sales rep for the carpet supplier quoted a price, which we have to provide to the order desk when we order the carpet. Materials ship once the price is approved. This material did not ship because we were given the wrong price. This delay in shipment is what ultimately caused the project to be impossible to be completed by the customer's deadline. The supplier offered a discount on the material for the inconvenience which we passed on to the customer. We try to be as transparent as we can, and explained the situation to this customer. If we caused the price issue we would have absolutely offered to install the the carpet at the original price. Whether we charged $1 or $10,000 the project would not have been able to get done by the customer's deadline, and that had absolutely nothing to do with my company--the material simply did not ship in time. After we exhausted every option with multiple shipping companies--including Saturday delivery options--nobody could guarantee that the material would be in in time. Once we were certain of this we informed this company and offered to install the material at a later date. They did not want to install at a later date so we issued a refund immediately. If we were trying to "bait and switch" this shipping issue obviously would not have occurred. Ultimately we just feel horrible that this happened. We did everything we could but in the end it was an impossible task. We recommend that any customer try to plan ahead of time when having renovation work done--waiting until the last minute can cause a lot of undue stress and project issues.

Everyone did an outstanding job. The professionalism of the entire team, from Shelley in the store, to John who came and measured, and the wonderful installers, John and Todd, everyone went beyond my expectations. They listened to my ideas, even drawing a diagram to help me understand the different designs for laying the tile. I love my floor, and have received many compliments. I am not listing the cost of service, as it is based on materials and square footage, not relevant to anyone but me. Get a couple of estimates for your job.

It went fine. They gave me samples to take home. I went back and forth a couple times until I found the right quality/price/colors that I liked. John came out to measure and I later met with Shelly for the pricing, left a deposit and scheduled an installation date for about one month later. Permanent called about a week later and had to move the installation date back about a half week but that was OK as they had let me know in advance. The vinyl flooring took two days and the carpet one day. It looks great and the installers were professional. I felt the pricing was reasonable compared with several other places I had visited and the Angies List reviews were postive. They took the old carpet, padding etc. with them, for a fee of course, but it was worth it not having to deal with the disposal of it. The only hitch I encountered, and it was a small one, was that I had to call Permanent twice to get a receipt...the only receipt I had was for my initial deposit. I had given a check to the installer for the balance due when the job was completed, but a week and a half later I still had not gotten a receipt showing paid in full, carpet and vinyl flooring type descriptions, etc. I called, they seemed surprised I had not received it, and was told that they would get all of that to me shortly. Another week and a half passed and I had still not received it so I called again and spoke with someone else. I received it two days later. I'm not going to ding them much for that under "responsiveness".

Our experiencing purchasing the carpet was fine - all of the issues we experienced were during the install and after. When they came out to install the carpet they discovered they had measured incorrectly because the carpet we chose was directional (has a pattern). They had to order additional carpet and scramble to get it installed so it would be done in time for us to pass our home inspection. Since it all worked out in the end, we were willing to let it go. The carpet was installed in our spare bedrooms and a hallway that do not get used frequently. When we started to notice some rippling in the carpet in the months after the carpet was installed we were a bit annoyed. When the rippling continued to get worse and became evident in every room, I called. It had been just over a year since the install and they no longer covered their work - I was told there was a flat fee for coming out for the first hour and an additional fee for every block of time after that. I decided not to reward what I felt was a poor install by paying them any more money. Now, at the point where we couldn't stand to look at the ripples anymore and to avoid things getting even worse, we called another company to get a quote for fixing the carpet. Their professional opinion - the rippling was caused by a poor install job. Rather than installing the hallway first and then the bedrooms, Permanent Floors Carpet One had done the opposite - installing the bedrooms first and then the hallway. This caused the rippling, which is especially bad in the hall. Now we're stuck paying another company to come and fix Permanent's mistake since they don't guarantee their labor/workmanship past a year. Not a happy customer.

Response from Permanent Floors Carpet One
[Member Name Removed], We sincerely apologize that you had a bad experience with our company. As you can see from the fact that over 90% of our reviews are an A, that this is an exception and not the norm. The technician who installed your carpet is an amazing craftsman with over 30 years experience performing best-practice installations. He does not do anything unless he feels it is absolutely the best way to install a material based on the environment. When a carpet needs to be re-stretched, there are multiple reasons: 1. the material could be defective; 2. the padding could be defective, 3. the expansion and contraction of a home as seasons fluctuate temperature and humidity can cause it to stretch and loosen; and 4. yes, there can be a myriad of improper installations that could cause it. Considering the caliber of the technician, I highly doubt the latter is the case. Also, it is very easy for a random company to come out and make assumptions and criticize the original installation in hopes to impress a customer and instill value. We on the other hand would never make assumptions like that because not only were we not present during the installation to know the circumstances, but it is bad etiquette to do so. Had we come out and found that the installation was the cause for the problem, there is no doubt that we would have rectified the issue at no cost to you. Sincerely, Ryan
