Rebecca and Tommy were very helpful and responded to our question and concerns quickly. We knew going into this process that our second floor had an uneven subfloor and would require extra attention to make it LVP ready. Unfortunately you never know what needs to be done until the old floor is removed. The installation team lead by Ezekiel did a great job. I was nervous that they wouldn't finish the job by the completion date since demo took longer than expected and they had to add an additional layer of plywood and grind it down to level it. We were skeptical about the whole extra layer process but Ezekiel knew what he was doing and it turned out great. The extra work was supposed to add 3 days work but they got it done in 1. Great job installation team.

New lvp flooring!

We had the best experience with direct carpet. After getting several quotes we went with Tommy and his team because of how personable and accommodating Tommy was. He was great and patient with all questions and helped us to visualize things and know what to expect. He's so friendly and in your corner. Their guys did an incredible job, we loved our new upstairs flooring so much we went back to get more on the whole bottom floor. Pricing was great and very competitive, even for the very nice flooring we chose. The work was spotless and we felt everyone cared about us from start to finish. I was nervous about dust from tile demo- but the guys were so sweet and did a great job keeping it down, even dusting along the way! We love this company and it's wonderful staff and will definitely only shop with them in the future. A wonderful family run business that has been in San Marcos for years. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with Direct Carpet and I wonder how I didn't use them before. Asha helped me in the showroom and she really understood what I was looking for and was able to recommend the best carpet and color for what we were trying to achieve. I really appreciated that she was able to come out quickly for measurements and didn't want me to pay for it up front. She brought some samples and provided me with the quote quickly. The pricing was very good and the carpet installation looked very good. The paint around the stairs that were installed were scratched up and it definitely needed some touch-ups afterwards but I won't deduct any stars for it since the project overall was executed very well. Definitely the first place I will step into when I need flooring again in the future. Thank you Asha!

Great service, fair pricing, and beautiful work!…read more I found this company through their Yelp reviews and messaged them through Yelp. They responded in less than 15 minutes and were able to schedule a free in-home estimate. Robert arrived right on time, helped us choose the right carpet and color, and gave us very helpful advice. The pricing was very reasonable and transparent, so we decided to move forward. The crew came just one week later, right on schedule, removed our old carpet, and installed the new carpet beautifully. The entire process was fast, professional, and hassle-free. We're very happy with our stairs and would definitely recommend them!

Starting my review 1 year after install. Overall we had a poor experience for the following…read morereasons: 1. The general expectations for install were never communicated to us, we have never replaced flooring and didn't know they would be demoing the entire house and then installing, requiring us to vacate the home. For someone new, it's reasonable to assume they might go room by room? Maybe not. Setting out general expectations and timelines in advance would be great. 2. The job took much longer than originally stated. 3. Quality of baseboards that they replaced was much lower than what we originally had installed. 4. The overall quality of the install was poor. It was clear they had no idea how to work with this newer product. Especially when it came to the stairs which they redid and it's still not right. 5. Photos included of messy filler/caulking, install spaces between joints and large spaces next to walls, creaky steps (multiple). I waited one year to review as the sales person said that "of course the steps will creak when they are new but when they settle in it won't". I feel like they are "settled" now but they still creak like crazy. They weren't the cheapest quote we got, we thought we were getting quality install and were ok with paying more but that was not the case.

There was zero pressure and no upselling--just honest, trustworthy advice that helped us get exactly what we needed. When it came to installation, we had Jeff and his three sons, and I cannot say enough good things about them. This four-man crew worked together so seamlessly, and I was genuinely amazed at how fast they completed our entire upstairs. They handled everything: tearing out the old carpet, carefully moving heavy furniture, and putting every single piece back nicely when they were done. We felt so lucky to have Jeff and his sons on our project. If you are considering new flooring, you would be incredibly lucky to get this crew. I would recommend Tri-City Carpet to anyone!

Thank you, Tri City Carpeting! From start to finish, you were fantastic…read more Dennis, our salesperson, arrived on time and quickly helped us choose exactly what we wanted. There was no pressure, he was incredibly easy to work with, and he responded quickly to every text message. Our installers, Donnie, Kason, and Grayson, were equally impressive. They worked diligently, carefully moved our furniture, and did a fantastic job with the installation. This is the second time I have used Tri City Carpeting, and I will continue to use them for all my future flooring needs. I am truly a customer for life. Thank you for another wonderful experience!

Floor Coverings International - North County Coastal - Meet Travis Brown, Owner

If you want the red carpet service, Travis is your guy. I was impressed with the detailed quote…read moreprocess, and the knowledge that came with the quote made me feel confident they would do an install that was perfect. The other installers did not discuss the same level of detail. Since I chose tile, Travis has a subcontractor who does the install, and they were amazing. The foreman was on site the first couple of days and again during the week and the last day. Travis came by multiple times during the install. Everyone was on time, answered the phone and communication was great. I made a few last minute changes and they all worked with me through each step. The process can be really stressful for a home owner but I am so happy with the result. This will not be the cheapest quote you will get; they are more expensive than other places, but I have heard too many bad experiences and unnecessary delays from other installers. This went so smoothly and I never felt nervous about the project.

I had the pleasure of working with Travis and his assistant Lissie at Floor Coverings International…read more(Carlsbad | Oceanside | San Marcos | Vista), and I can't say enough about how generous and helpful they were throughout the process. I'm an interior designer based in the Bay Area, helping my elderly parents in San Diego select new carpeting remotely, which added a layer of complexity to everything. From the very beginning, Travis and Lissie were incredibly responsive, patient, and willing to go above and beyond. They took the time to source and send multiple rounds of samples, talk through options with me, and really try to help us land on the right direction, despite not knowing me or whether the project would ultimately move forward with them. What stood out most was their professionalism and kindness. They treated the project with care and attention, even though it required extra coordination and didn't follow a typical, straightforward path. In the end, we needed someone local who could be on-site with my parents to guide the final selection in person, which wasn't a service they were positioned to provide given the distance. That said, the samples we were most drawn to aesthetically were ones Travis had sent, which speaks to how well he understood the brief. If you're in their service area and looking for a knowledgeable, honest, and genuinely helpful team, I would absolutely recommend Travis and Lissie. They are the kind of people you want to work with.
