DO NOT USE THIS CONTRACTOR We worked with Jeff and selected his company to update and redo our master shower. The day I called to sign his contract to start work they declined to do our project. His boss/owner told him that the company could not do a quality job on our project and they said the project was too big a mess and could not handle it. They would not sign my contract or guidelines for working in my house. They are amazing for a large old company to decline work after promising to do the job as they bid it.

The installation date was dependent on finishing other repairs. I had to keep delaying the installation of the carpet. However, once all was clear, they did their job quickly and professionally. The salesperson was always on top of the situation for follow through.

I chose them based on their Angie’s List reviews and I felt that their prices were reasonable. Two guys came out and completed the job in a day. They cleaned up well. They were very good and responsive. I was very satisfied with the work that they did.
Description of Work: They installed carpeting in two bedrooms.
I think they're great. I like them. I thought it was excellent. They were professional. They did an excellent job. Their prices are a little on the high side but everybody did what they were supposed to do. Their attitude was great. I just like them. I always use them because they provide good service. They're just a little pricey.
Description of Work: I used them for carpet installation and tile bathroom installation.
Everything about Venetian Blind and Flooring is excellent. I paid a little more, but the service and quality were well worth it. I will be using them again for carpet in our vacation home.
Description of Work: Remove carpet in living and dining area, lay wood flooring. Remove tile in kitchen, breakfast area, and wash room, and lay new tile.

Amazing!! I called two days before closing on the house I was selling, and the carpet was INSTALLED the day after I called. When the furniture was moved out of the room prior to selling the house, the old carpet looked terrible. I called Venetian Blind Carpet One (who had installed carpet in a different room several years before). Katy and Heather came that same afternoon with samples of the very reasonably priced carpet they had in stock and measured, and Salvador and his helper installed the new carpet the following morning! They did a beautiful job in only a couple of hours. They removed the old padding and carpet, vacuumed the floor where it had been, put in new padding, and installed the new carpet, finishing in less than 24 hours from my first call. And the new carpet looks great! I really appreciate everyone's responsiveness from my first call, and I can't say enough about how much they helped me and how pleasant everyone was to work with. I will always call them whenever I need carpet or flooring again.
Description of Work: Measured and installed new carpet on an extremely tight schedule.

This installation went exactly as expected. They removed and hauled away the old carpet, vacuumed, installed the new pad and carpet. It was power stretched as required by the warranty. They finished in 2 days and cleaned up and replaced the furniture. There were a couple of threshholds that I didn't like and they were redone immediately to my satisfaction. As many have said, this is not the cheapest company, but they were the only ones that carried the pattern I wanted and the price was reasonable. Their square foot prices include everything--installation, removal, pad--so you know exactly what you are getting. We had one mistake in the measuring, which my husband caught ahead of time so it wasn't a problem. In general, the sales people were extremely knowledgable and helpful, even when they didn't know it was going to be a big job. This is a place where you are important from the minute you walk in the door.
Description of Work: removed and replaced carpet in three bedrooms, a playroom, linen closet and stair.

The sales rep was very nice and professional. I had three companies that submitted bids. I had used Venetian Blind & Floor Covering (their previous name) 10 years ago for carpeting and shutters. Back then, their price fell in line with other bids. I hired them and they did a great job. However, this time around their bid was twice what the other two bids were, using the exact same criteria. I'm not in to paying money just for the sake of paying money. I hired Buffaloe Floor Covering instead. I found them on Angie's List and the other reviewers were right about their professionalism, attention to detail, and price point.

The representative was very snotty, and I got the distinct impression I was bothering her. The estimate for the carpeting and installation was about $14,000 for three bedrooms, stairs and hallway. I wasn't happy with either the service or estimate, so went with another company. Got the same quality carpet for about $8,000 with excellent service.
Description of Work: They called me approximately three weeks after I called to get an estimate for carpeting. They finally called me back, and since I had not yet purchased the carpeting, I scheduled an appointment. They then came to measure and I went to their store that week to pick out carpeting for an estimate.

The consultant responded and arrived on time. The measurement was done fairly thoroughly and we discussed the options available, i.e. faux-wood blinds, honeycomb shades, shutter blinds, etc. Venetian Blinds sells one of the best shutter blinds in the market, Douglass, which made them a bit on the pricey side. The consultant quickly provided an estimate via email. However, of the other estimates I received, the presentation of the email was not very professional. The cost was also on the higher side compared to another quote I received from Perfect Blinds, which I ultimately hired and had a very good experience with their owner Jarrone Williams.
Description of Work: Venetian Blind sent a consultant to come on-site and perform measurement on all windows.

I trust Venetian Blind Carpet One Floor & Home completely. I have ordered the granite top from them and once it is ready, I will have to go and pick it up. They are very professional, extremely knowledgeable and they have quality products. They stand behind what they do. Their prices are very competitive. They do not sell a poor product knowingly. They are always friendly when you go in and they are ready and willing to help you.
Description of Work: I used Venetian Blind Carpet One Floor & Home. I purchased a tile trim from them and I am getting a granite top for the bathroom.
Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. Superb installation of silestone countertops and backsplashes in kitchen. In bathrooms, silestone countertop installation was very tricky because some older ceramic tile backsplashes had to be preserved, but they did a fantastic job. Carpet was also very well installed. The sales respresentative who worked with us was very knowledgeable, responsive, and patient and made helpful suggestions as we agonized over selections. Very pleased with the work and service.

I did not use their service.
Description of Work: A very nice lady came and did estimate on my bedroom window treatment. She was professional, punctual and gave us several suggestions. However, her estimated prices was almost doubled comparing with other companies. She did not want to apply discount where Venetian blinds had advertised on Angie's list. In addition, I never received detailed estimated cost from my email as she promised.

Vanetian Blind was referred to me by my friend. I went to the store and was impressed with Rob's explanation of different types of shutters. Rob then came to the house to measure and gave me the estimates with 3 options. He was punctual and professional. The shutters was ready on time. The installers were friendly and efficient. However, I felt that they were a bit rushed. The shutters function very well. I noticed tiny chips on the edges of some lourvers of each shutters. Also there's a filled small hole on the side of one shutter with noticeable color difference. I called Rob about this. They came back to fill the hole and chips and painted it well. Rob also offered to redo all the shutters if I were not happy with the shutters. This report was delayed because I was debating whether to have all the shutters redone. Apparently the shutters was made by a company working with Vanetian. There was some delay in communication with Rob and the response from the shutter company. Rob apologized because the company should have noticed these chips in the factory and not released the shutters for installation. It's been several months the shutters function very well.The chips are hardly noticeable. So far I did not call Rob for redoing the shutter. I love giving raving report. However, I have to give a B on quality for this one. I hope when I call them to replace window treatment with wood plantation shutters on other windows at my house. It will be such a wow feeling that I can give a raving report.

I love them. I first got my dining room rug and then they installed the rug in the entry stairway. They managed that really well. I really liked the salesperson in particular. He was very hands-on and detail oriented. That's why I decided to use them for the big project. My interaction with them started with smaller projects and led to the bigger ones each time. They are really good. They aren't the cheapest. I think they are expensive, but you get what you pay for. They definitely went above and beyond. I picked out the backsplash and when the stone actually got here the color varied too much. Matthew my salesperson said it was no problem. He took it back. He went to multiple places to find a replacement and brought me samples. He found me something that worked. It was painless for me. Everything was addressed. The color tone didn't match the counter. He said he understand and it wasn't a problem. He fixed everything and went above and beyond.
Description of Work: They helped me with my dining room rug. They did the runners up the stairway. They helped remodel my kitchen. Right now they are looking for a lug for my kitchen. They did countertops and backsplash. They helped me run the project. They ripped out the old countertops. They built the base and put in new countertops. They ripped out the old backsplash. They repaired sheet-rock and installed new backsplash.

Very well. At one point the new tub was not satisfactory and they had a new one in in two days.
Description of Work: I have had them do a new kitchen countertop and replace the bathtub, add tiling, remove a bidet, redo floor tiles. I have found them to be reliable and have high standards of workmanship. They are responsive to my calls and needs. They are not the cheapest in town but I think they are worth the price.

They were there exactly when they said they would be and did such a good job. Repaired some problems under the floor that I didn't expect them to, so the carpet would lay properly. It looks and feels fabulous! Not the cheapest, but worth the money.
