Description of Work: Removed 720 sq ft of water damaged wood floor, 114 sq. ft of tile and carpet in 4 rooms. This was replaced with 1575 sq. ft of engineered hardwood. This also included t-moldings, shoe moldings, furniture moving, etc. |I worked with Gayla Young from start to finish and she was quick to respond to every question or concern I had. We wanted separate estimates for each area - we didn't know how many of the other rooms we would be able to add at our own expense since this started as an insurance claim. I had a very detailed breakdown from insurance and I wanted similar from the flooring company to make sure everything (shoe molding, painting of it, etc.) was included. Gayla was the only one/company who would provide this. I had a hard time getting the other two companies (giving me estimates) to even give me separate estimates for each room. |Luckily for me their very nice showroom is close to me so I made several trips picking up more samples. They have so many to choose from. I was pleased that their bid was a bit lower than another and quite a bit lower than the third. One of the other companies lowered their bid to be more competitive but I still felt more comfortable working with Gayla and Builders Carpet. |The installation team was polite and easy to work with for the week it took to complete the work. The floors look great and I can't find section that should have been done differently. All of the new shoe molding and baseboards match existing and they even touched up some nicks that were on them before they started. |We found one small issue with the threshold to the garage and they were out here immediately to fix it. |If I had to pick one area for improvement it would be cleanup afterwards. They left a lot of sawdust by our front door and dust from their vacuum by the garage. Very minor points in the overall scope of the huge project. |

Description of Work: They installed carpet throughout my home. The price on the carpet was good. |The truck loaded with the carpet came from Tyler (45 miles away) and broke down. It was the drivers personal pickup. He had no help from the store,the carpet had to be unloaded along the side of the highway to get the blow out fixed. Due in the morning, carpet delivered late evening, installed over the next two days. Never knew when anyone was coming. The installer brought a friend (he did know how to install carpet) to help. They did a good job installing the carpet the next 10 days but left carpet and some of my furniture on the front porch, not too tidy inside the house. I did not use them to place covering on my sunporch.

Description of Work: We own several rent houses and Builder's Carpet provides the products and installation each time we redo the floors. They are honest, the prices are fair and the installers are professional and do an excellent job. We remodeled our house a couple of years ago and Builder's Carpet did the floors for that project as well. We really enjoy the people there and will continue to use them for all of our flooring needs.

Description of Work: Installed engineered hardwoods throughout approx 1,400 sq ft downstairs (included tile demo of approx 30 sq ft; and new wood & stair nose on the bottom stair). |AND |Installed new ceramic tile in laundry room. (We handled the removal of the old laundry room tile ourselves.) | |All materials provided by Builder's Carpet & Design as per our selections. | |We worked with John Huse. He was incredibly knowledgable, straightforward (over 30 yrs in the business), and very easy to work with. No hard sell. And he was honest that he would not be the cheapest quote we got, but that he also wouldn't be the most expensive, and he was absolutely right. |John answered all of our questions to our satisfaction, and not once said a negative thing about any other current or prior customers (we had one very highly-rated company's sales person put down a current customer throughout our entire quote process). |John was available as we needed, was flexible throughout the process (we had to keep rescheduling because of last year's ice storms), was communicative, and he made sure we were pleased with the work once completed. | |Their crews were professional, timely, and organized. And the work they did was/is excellent! | |We've already referred Builder's to our family who used them & worked with John, and our family is equally as pleased with the process & results. | |Builder's Carpet & Design is a family owned business, with a good history of quality work. We had already selected them for our job when a trusted friend highly recommended them to us. So that made us feel even better going into our project with them. | |Additionally, the other trades that Builder's Carpet & Design works with speak highly of them. | |We will absolutely be using Builder's Carpet & Design for additional projects we have coming up, and we HIGHLY recommend them for anyone looking for quality flooring or tile work.

Description of Work: They installed hardwood flooring, carpet and had some rugs made for me. The sales person was definitely a 10. John was awesome and did what was asked. The tile we ordered was poor quality, and they had to send it back and reorder it and that delayed the installation by 2 days.

Provider gave a free estimate and helped us pick out the tile. I was most concerned about how the old molding would be taken off and put back on. They were able to do this with no problem. The job took 5 days. Two days to take the old tile out, two to put the new tile in, and one day to put the molding back on. Three seperate crews did this. In the end the floor loked great!!

The guys from Builders Carpet & Design Center did an excellent job. The work was done timely and professionally. They came right in the budget of the estimate. They estimated to do the job in 3 days. They finished the job in a little over 2 days. They got it done a little bit faster that I thought they would take. I would surely recommend them. They are a family owned company. They do a terrific job.

Received measurements from Red Collins and met him at their facility to pick out new tile and carpet. He knew I had time restraints with my moving company. Tile crew showed up to remove the old tile. I stayed at the house, which was empty, all of the time they were there. The next day I waited until late afternoon to see what progress had been made. No one had even been there the entire day. I called Mr. Collins and a new crew showed up about 1/2 hour later. The new tile setter had to stay until about 10:00 p.m. at which time he ran out of tile. They had to finish laying the tile and putting in the new grout early the next morning because the carpet crew was going to be there to remove the old and lay the new carpet. The old tile crew had to return because they had not removed enough of the old mortar from the tiles and the carpet people could not lay the carpet. They then sent a crew out to clean the garage, where they had thrown all of the old tiles, however, they left the garage quite dirty (didn't even bring a broom) and left all of the old baseboard, with nails still attached in the garage. The white baseboards in the three bathrooms and laundry room will have to be replaced because they are covered with brown grout. The carpet crew did a great job and I had no problems with them. Even after a telephone call to Mr. Collins about the baseboards and the mess, I have not heard anything further from them.
