When we first visited the Tallaght branch, the staff were extremely helpful, especially Colm, who really went out of his way to assist us. This gave us confidence to go with Deskelly, even though their pricing was only average compared to other quotes. We chose them because we expected professionalism and reliability from a larger company. Unfortunately, the reality was very different. Endless Postponements: Dates we had confirmed in the shop were not entered into their system. More than once, I was told last-minute that the fitting was postponed, including on the very morning I was expecting them. This caused huge stress, especially since I had to rearrange the delivery of a new bed and other furniture several times. Customer Care Issues: Communication with customer care was one of the most frustrating parts. Calls were cut off while I was still talking, promises of follow-up were not kept, and I constantly had to chase updates myself. The lack of respect for my time and situation was very disappointing. Inconsistent Fitting Standards: The LVT team did an excellent, clean job. The carpet fitting, however, was messy and inconsistent. Some areas were left unfinished, and in one case the fitter admitted he had used leftover carpet because the measurement hadn't been done properly. Since Deskelly themselves took the measurements, I don't understand how this could happen, and I was left feeling like I had to accept poor standards for something I paid a premium for. In the end, the work was only completed after weeks of stress, delays, and unnecessary back-and-forth. For a company that presents itself as professional and charges above handyman prices, I honestly expected far better. Overall, while some staff tried to help (again, Colm was excellent), the overall process was exhausting, uncoordinated, and frustrating. I would strongly urge Deskelly to improve their communication, scheduling, and accountability so that future customers don't go through what I did. I left this experience frustrated and disappointed, and I genuinely cannot recommend them.

Myself and my partner have dealt with Hamptons a good few times over the past couple years for our rental properties. Each time, the team has been professional, honest about pricing and timing and they have left the areas spotless. The last time we dealt with Hamptons, we were looking for a specific carpet that their regular suppliers don't have, yet Joe and his team went above and beyond to source it elsewhere for us. Honestly couldn't fault them. I wish they did property management as we have not been so lucky in that department!! Thank you Hamptons, would recommend yous again and again!!

Avoid this business at all costs! I can describe Hampton Floor Store and the owner (Joe…read morePrendergast) and crew (John and his men) in three words...unprofessional, incompetent, and unethical. We own a flat that currently has tenants in it and we wanted to do the flooring all throughout before they moved out and before we showed it to new tenants. I made it very clear to Joe we were on a time crunch and wanted it done fast. We wanted carpeting in parts of the flat and flooring in others as well as new baseboards all throughout. I had it very clearly written in my quote. First, they had to delay the installation. Fine! Second they messed up where they were suppose to replace the carpet in certain areas they put flooring instead. Fine! Third, I find out from my tenants that instead of removing old flooring in the kitchen they just laid the new flooring over it. Joe and his crew leader John both said you wouldn't ever remove tile to put new flooring. Although I know that is not true because we have had that done just recently in our house. I said ok fine. I was so patient with their incompetence. They kept lying about showing up at certain times and kept inconveniencing our tenants over and over again to the point where they are considering taking their own action. They had us put down over 2/3 of the deposit up front and they said the rest would be due to the crew upon completion in cash. Well the day they told us they would finish, and insisted on payment that very day, our baby happened to get violently ill. I told the crew leader that over the phone and that our tenants would give them the cash. Our tenants were stuck in a bind so they just gave them the cash, but when we showed up the next day we saw that not only had they took the money and not finished the job but they did horrible work all throughout the flat. We paid for skirting boards everywhere and the didn't install it in three different rooms. There were gaps between the wall and where the flooring ended all throughout the place. Also they put bars of different shapes, sizes, and colors, all throughout the place. Not only did this look really awful, but some of them were very jagged and sharp and would pose a danger to people walking on it. I told Joe all of this and he told me "oh it's not that it's bad it's just not finished. They'll come back and finish." Why did we pay if they were not done??? ok fine. I put my trust in Joe that he would sort it out. It was a Tuesday and he said they would get it done by the end of the week. The week went by and no one came back. I reached out to Joe again and he said he would tell them to come back and complete the job and fix the issues. Well another week went by and no one showed. Then after that Joe just started ignoring me. I messaged him on their google messaging system, I e-mailed him, I sent him a text message, I sent him a WhatsApp message, I left a voicemail message on his mobile phone and the store phone and he ignored me in every single way. It's been a month now with no resolve. We will now have to pay thousands to correct this. We will be taking them to court to get our money back.

We got GSI to do our flooring and expected a professional service and job as we trusted them being…read moreunder the Guild of Master Craftsmanship, but the end result was completely unsatisfactory and the service was unprofessional. Day 2 - Finished job. We came home that night to find that they made a hole in our wall down near the back door at the skirting, and just left it like that, and they didn't bother to caulk the skirting boards which had been damaged. So we text Gary with photos of the damage and he sent someone the following day and mentioned apologies for this. Day 3 - Luca arrived to caulk the skirting boards as it was left undone with massive gaps. His excuse was that he had run out of caulk and that he didn't bother to caulk because he presumed I would paint the skirting. Which is why they left it in such a bad condition. Regarding the hole in the wall down near the back door he said this happens so I said it wouldn't happen if he would pry the board off close to the reinforced corner bead. And he shrugged it off. The holes for the radiator pipes had been roughly cut out with a jigsaw instead of using a spade or holesaw drill-bit which would've given a cleaner more professional finish. The offcuts for the radiator slots in the floor were thrown away so he just cut new pieces to fit in place as a "patchwork job". He also filed with a hand file parts of the floorboard which were touching against the radiator pipes that had "no clearance allowance" for movement. They didn't seem to have the right tools for the job. All of the offcuts and rubbish had been dumped on our newly laid grass in the back garden for us to dispose of. Overall the finish was very rough and unsatisfactory for €1200. We tried to communicate with Gary for a reduced price of €1000 due to the shoddy workmanship and he bullied us into paying up and was completely unprofessional. Unsurprisingly the 1 positive review on the GSI Flooring facebook page is actually written by Gary Stewart of GSI flooring. We definitely would NOT recommend using GSI Flooring.

We had GSI Flooring fit our house with wooden flooring and carpet less than a year ago…read more We were so happy with the job when it was complete but this all changed less than 2 months later. We started noticing issue with the carpet on the stairs. Excessive wear became visible mere weeks after it was fitted. There are only 2 in the house and we both work full time so the carpet is not being walked on excessively. We do not wear shoes on the carpet and hoover it regularly. This damage is completely unjustified, especially only weeks after it was fitted. I contacted Gary from GSI flooring and explained the issue. I included photos of the damage in my email. He sent one of the guys out who fitted the carpet, Luca. Luca inspected the carpet and acknowledged the damage. He said it was common on this kind of carpet. I kept pointing out that it shouldn't of occurred mere weeks after being fitted - he never once addressed this point. I also pointed out that if I was advised that this damage was common on this type of carpet, I never would have purchased it. Luca just shrugged at this. While he was there, he generally spoke over me and insisted that the carpet and the fitting were of good quality. Before leaving he said that he was willing to refit the carpet but the decision was down to Gary. I heard nothing for 2 weeks after this. I contacted Gary again, from this point he began fobbing my emails off. This continued for 1 week before Gary finally claimed that Luca said there was nothing wrong with the carpet, which is untrue. He went on to claim that Luca said he would replace the carpet on the stairs and that he informed us that he would need to be paid for it. Again, untrue. Gary then suggested that Luca left the decision up to us and we haven't been in contact since....? Untrue! I'm not sure who exactly from GSI Flooring is lying, but someone is. Bottom line is, there is clearly an issue here. We were either sold poor quality carpet or underlay or the materials were not fitted correctly. None of these factors are our fault. We put our trust in GSI Flooring only to discover that they are more than happy to leave their customers out of pocket with extremely poor quality flooring. Would I recommend GSI Flooring? Absolutely not!!
