Description of Work: Rick was very helpful in suggesting very high quality flooring while staying within our budget. He suggested a new product we had not heard of and we fell in love with it. Rick was able to work around our schedule of other work to get all the flooring in the house done in a timely fashion. Everything looked great and we couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: Grouted vinyl tile in entry, hall, kitchen and two bathrooms. Turned out gorgeous! Vinyl tile is so much warmer than ceramic and forgiving if you drop something. Rick used a 12x24 newer style of tile and it really makes the rooms look bigger. Also carpeted 3 bedrooms in this renovation. They turned out beautifully as well. Rick is the best person to work with! Very prompt on replies.

Description of Work: We had carpet removed in 3 VERY LARGE rooms, and replaced with high quality carpet. We also had to abate some liquid damage to the sub floors and reseal them and patch them- all done by Bates. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. They also dealt with a very unpleasant mess left by some cats in the building before we owned it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

I felt the money was well worth it. He is wonderful! He is very particular and a very hard worker and always cleans up. I would recommend him to anyone! He is fantastic!
Description of Work: I've used him in the past at my home. I now live in a condo and he recarpeteed 1700 sq ft. while we were living here. He did it in about 6 1/2 hours. He did a beautiful job. There was plenty of furniture to move and edges to go around.
Rick and his company did a fantastic job from beginning to end. He always answered the phone, was punctual to our appointments, and turned things around immediately. His product knowledge and attention to detail during the install was very impressive and the results look incredible. He worked within our budget, and didn't pressure us to order only the brands he carried. In fact, he had to order from a different manufacturer to match the carpet we currently had, and his price was lower than what we paid over a year ago. If we need more flooring installed in the future, we will be working with Rick.

We did not go with them because we found a better price, but we were pleased with how quickly they came and did the estimate. I appreciate their small independent company. They were just very helpful in giving information on how to deal with carpeting damaged by water and how to treat the floor. They were just very informative and knowledgeable. They gave us good tips.

Rick Bates was friendly, professional, and fast - and was very responsive and accommodating with scheduling. He did an excellent job installing the runner and the price was very fair. I'm thrilled that we used him and would be happy to recommend him to family and friends.

After noting a good rating on Angie's list, we visited this carpet sales and installation business in Sun Prairie, WI. We had visited several other stores and found Bates at least as helpful and knowledgeable as anybody else. Theirs is a small, locally owned business that supports local businesses by giving customers with sales over a certain amount a gift certificate at the local business of their choice.
Description of Work: We ordered Shaw carpeting from Bates and had them install it in a stairway and bedroom. They were knowledgeable and professional from start to finish. The carpeting has only been on the floor for 2 days, so we can't make a long-term observation. So far, everything is fine and we are confident that we picked the right company to do the work.

We contacted Bates throught Craig's List. Rick responded the next day and came to do measurements the day we talked on the phone. He provided the quote quickly and answered any questions I had. He sold Shaw carpet and that had the Green Label Plus certification for low-VOCs which is very important to me. He did exactly what I asked him to do, cleaned up after himself, and left large scraps for me to reuse. He was done when he said he would be.
Description of Work: We needed carpet installed in our basement and stairs. The floor in the basement did not have any existing flooring but the stairs had existing carpet to be removed.
