The installers could not pattern match at the seams. One seam was not in the location agreed upon and an extra (unwanted) seam was necessary because the installers incorrectly cut the vinyl and did not have sufficient material to pattern match without adding a seam. The installers did not allow sufficient time for curing of the adhesive so the vinyl is significantly puckered at the seams. A second pair of installers were dispatched to finish the job and address the seam issues, but told me it was not fixable. Since 2 of the 3 seams are at main thoroughfare in the house, this is VERY unsightly. An agreement was made with the salesperson Tom Bomar (in writing) that I would not pay the balance due which was basically the installation portion of the bill, however, I have been harassed by repeated invoices from Broadway. Follow-up written communication requesting a zero balance invoice reflective of the agreement has not received a response from Broadway. Legal action on my part may be required ultimately to resolve this. A terrible experience.

First time I went to the Broadway store, I was greeted promptly and treated well by all the staff I talked with. I actually found the wood flooring I wanted elsewhere, but I was glad to go back for rugs. The sales person I dealt with for area rugs was pleasant, knowledgeable, responsive and helpful. We were able to get exactly what we wanted in a very short time period. I'll be going back when we're ready for the other rugs. Additional note: I had gone to their West Knoxville store several times (probably four times), and each time I found the staff to be uninterested in helping me. My husband was with me one of those times and his impression was as negative as mine was . They didn't have the flooring choices that the Broadway store did, either, but I'd never go back in there regardless. It's like they're a different organization.
Description of Work: Hardwood flooring. Area rugs.

Geoff Yarber at Broadway's west Knoxville store worked with us during our selection process. He was professional, knowledgeable, and very accommodating when we requested several samples. Jerry, Terry, and Billy Crowe did an excellent installation job. We did the entire house: upstairs and family room, master, hallway, and closet downstairs. It was evident they knew exactly what they were doing. They were pleasant, conscientious about the quality of their work, and took pride in a job well done. We highly recommend them and would use them again.

The product is fantastic. The installation was extremely well done and the installer was outstanding. The job was in a laundry room and the installer did a very good job of moving out the washer and dryer and re-installing them. The only issue we had was the lack of communication from the sales people following our order and down payment. Basically, we did not hear from them for a week until we finally called them. We had been under the impression that things would move quickly following the estimate (which was prompt by the way) and down payment. Not so. You have to keep on top of them. Overall though, we are extremely pleased with the product and the installation so would definitely use them again.

It went great! The guys that came out to the house were clean and professional. See above for the story. In my profession, I deal with a lot of different people; inspectors, structural engineers, electricians, plumbers, HVAC pros...you name it...I've seen it all and I am so impressed with this company!
Description of Work: I'm a REALTOR and had a home that needed new carpeting before we could place it on the market. I called for an estimate and within 1 day, the rooms were measured and carpet samples were delivered to us. Everyone we dealt with at Broadway Carpet were courteous and knowledgeable. There was a lot of hardwood flooring that I thought would have to be refinished, but they suggested a product that cleaned up and shined the floors for a lot less than hiring someone to refinish them. They looked great! I highly recommend Broadway Carpet and when I'm personally in need of new flooring, I'm calling them!

The only problem I had was the "wood strip" under the exterior doors. Using toe-molding did not look good; even though I was persistent in telling the manager per phone call--days kept going by with nothing happening. I finally gave up, and paid the second half of the cost for the work done. Note: For some reason, I did not initially go on angieslist.com to find a flooring company; however, wished I would have as if I had, most likely would not have used this company because of a "B" rating; however, the flooring looks good enough for me.
Description of Work: The guys were here on time, and did a good job. I have no complaints.

The men did a good job installing the flooring; however, management is not good.....
Description of Work: I told the workers that I did not like toe-molding under my exterior doors, and my talking to them I really thought they would get strips to match the flooring, so I waited, 1, 2, almost 3 weeks went by, and even spoke to Kyle per phone call, and I got the hint that they were not going to do anything more for me. This was disappointing, and unprofessional of Kyle; however, the young men did a good job on laying my wood flooring.

Many problems. "In-stock" tile was no longer available, requiring another round of tile selection. We were told the install would take about a week, they took about three weeks and we had to stop work mid stream to have family visit for Christmas. Installers only worked about 6 to 6 1/2 hours a day. Installers wore ragged worn-out clothing. They initially laid out the floor using an off-true guideline. When I pointed out the guideline was wrong, they assured me it was OK, so, even though you could see it was off, I had to get a tape measure and prove to them the guide line was way off (about 3 inches is 15 feet); it would have been a real mess. They installed 10 or so visibly defective tiles, requiring a factory rep to come and inspect. They broke those tile out and reset new ones. They left the new floors with a grout haze on them, indicating it was the customer`s responsibility to clean them. Backsplash grout lines were uneven.
Description of Work: Ceramic tile installation in kitchen. laundry room, and two bathrooms, new tile back splash in kitchen.

The installers showed up about 30 minutes later than I expected. They were very nice, and did the whole job in one day. The carpet looked great when they left and my wife and I are very happy we went with the think pad and thicker carpet (although it was 500 dollars more expensive) than the original one Darryl recommended as being adequate. My wife and I really do not like carpet because of the cleaning involved and usually prefer hardwood/tile/laminate products but I must say that this winter getting out of bed and stepping on this carpet is an awesome experience. NOT COLD and very soft. All the furnititure was moved and returned and I was impressed with that because it is very heavy.
Description of Work: I had a do it yourself DIY disaster in the upstairs hallway which I personaly created. All the bedrooms had very, very old carpet so we did the hallway and all bedrooms. I went to a national chain first and they were not very responsive. I spoke with a friend of mine and she said that she had a good experience with Broadway Carpet so I went to their West store and dealt with a person by the name of Darryl (not sure of the spelling). He was very good and educated me on the difference between the brand name carpet and the house brand and I decided on the best quality "thick" house brand. Everything went very smooth including getting samples for my wife to see and ordering the carpet. CJ called me to set up a day to install the carpet. We had some very heavy furniture to be moved and my DIY disaster to remove.

There is a visible seam in the carpet in the middle of the room. Broadway sent out someone who verified that the installation was faulty and it needs to be repaired. I have had no success getting the repair done. Several times appointments have been made, but no one shows up. There are no telephone calls to cancel. I am very disappointed in Broadway Carpet; this experience has completely changed my evaluation of their services.

They did remove the carpet and pad thoroughly and hauled it away. This was an expensive 3/4" solid hardwood that was pre-finished that we got on sale. The job was completed particularly fast, which was to the detriment of the hardwood. Many many areas of the hardwood where one piece was pounded into the other were chipped, and some were warped. Even since then over time many more have shown more and more warping and cracking. Initially I complained a couple of times, asking for a manager to come out and see. He refused and just sent the same young guys who installed the hardwood. From what I have been told by other installers, time needs to be taken to carefully install pre-finished hardwood so as not to cause this problem. I have had to travel most of the year. We are just a couple with no children and have not even been using this room this year. It is really disgusting and sad to see the amount of money we spent for what should be a gorgeous hardwood ruined by the sloppy installation job. Even the young installers told me they told management at Broadway Carpet of the chipping and warping, yet there was never any effort to fix the problem, as of course it would cost them a lot of money. They only offered to replace one board. No one else ever came out to see the problem. I am only home very short periods at a time ever since the installation, and now have to leave again and am seeing this condition worsening. My suggestion to anyone would be to NOT use Broadway as if there is a problem, they are not going to respond. They are obviously not even attempting to hire installers to do the job properly so this would not occur. Just very sad to have wasted so much money. We will not pay someone to rip out this hardwood and install something else. So sad that it is so very difficult to find reputable people to do work on one's home. I just don't understand how other people are raving about them. This was not my/our fault - it was their rushed inexperienced installation, without any care for actually having the job done properly. I will attempt once more to get them to come and see the worsening condition, but after almost a year I certainly do NOT expect any resolution as management at the time of installation had no interest in coming to the house to see what went wrong.
Description of Work: Installation of High-quality 3/4" solid pre-finished hardwood flooring installed in a bedroom after they removed the carpet in the room. Carpet was removed thoroughly. Cleanup after the installation was so-so, they did not take the time to remove all the smudges and "goo" left on the hardwood.

I was educated, not just "sold". Then, when what I needed was determined to be a remnant, I went to the Broadway location (where the remnants are kept), where I was also treated with respect, found what I needed, and received a very fair price for a large remnant. The remnant was cut and bound, and another rug that I had taken in was surged (sp?) ... all at an exceedingly economical price for quality work. AND ... both jobs were finished quickly. I am definitely a "raving fan".
Description of Work: From the minute I walked into the Kingston Pike location, I was "floored" (excuse the pun) by the customer service provided by Sales Advisor Butch Akers. My job was a very small one, but I was treated as if I were building a 10,000 sq. ft. home with custom floors/carpeting.

We were very happy with them. They were nice and helpful in helping us select the right linoleum for that room. They told us how to prepare the floor for it, because we did that part ourselves to save some money. The price was right. It was a good experience all the way around. They did a really good job. We would definitely use them again for other flooring needs. The overall experience was awesome. I can't say anything bad about them. I think the price was very good for what we got. It didn't take them long to do the job. They were very responsive to our needs. They called to check on us. They came when they said they would. They didn't leave a mess. It was just great.

One was at a different location and they dropped the ball, but then when I went to the other location, they got on top of it and were very efficient. I was pretty pleased with them.

They were good people to talk with. They spent a lot of time educating us. The only reason that we did not go with them was we had a local guy who was about 10% cheaper than them. The sales people were very good to work with. I had to wait a couple of days for an email from them, but it wasn’t a big deal.
