    Elena A.

    Paid $9700 for flooring in my 2200 Sq ft home. To have my cupboards damaged and to never get a call back from the "sales guy" nor the follow up caller to ask about the satisfaction of the service who said they would both call me back it's been 2 months since install and I'm still waiting for a return call. They're sloppy installers, left cement all over the baseboards of my home, reported this to the follow up team and they said they would schedule a clean up within 2 days...... still waiting. I wouldn't recommend them at all. Tons of calls and follow ups until you pay they want your business but after you pay them they're like ghost.

    First, you have to pay in full upfront. Second, we have tile flooring throughout our one story home. They did not take out all the old floor at one time. They took out tile and half of the mortar, when they started laying our wood floor. They laid it up to the mortar that still needed to be jack hammered to remove which the dust and pieces were landing on the new floors. Did not cover the new flooring and was walking through the demolition and then on the new wood floor. Third, we were shorted three full boxes of flooring, which we paid for, that also means the installers got short changed as well as us. Fourth, there was glue left throughout the house. Made a appointment for them to come back and clean it up, they confirmed it two days in advance, then no showed. When they finally called, rescheduled for another week, because it was more convenient for them. The flooring was not the same color we ordered, took our flooring to the store and it was in the same family. They pick out the best and make the samples you look at and take home to see if it's looks good in your home. Price was good, but that is all.

    Dining room floor - new wood-look porcelain tile
    Elly H.

    First of all, I absolutely love the wood-look porcelain tile that Floors for Living installed in my dining room; see photos. I had the work done in March 2020. I love that my new floor is so easy to clean; hides dirt; and is textured so not slippery when wet. My dogs seem to like lying on it as well. The porcelain tile replaced some cheap builder-grade laminate that was there before. My only complaints are two. First, the installer, a young Hispanic guy, left some areas where grout was missing. Not a huge deal as he left the extra supplies behind when he was done so I filled in the grout areas myself. My second complaint - and really my biggest - is that I felt the salesman, Anthony LaGrippo, could have called me after the job was done to see how it went. No call at all to check in on my satisfaction, etc. Very disappointing considering I paid cash for the project and it was a simple job. At the very least I think a salesperson should be able to call you and see if everything was done as planned before closing out the sale. I used Floors for Living in the past and worked with a guy named Curtis who was phenomenal. If I need any more work done by Floors for Living I will ask to work with someone other than Anthony. P.S. The flooring is Interceramic USA (brand), Norway (style) Troms Gold (color).

    Floor 2 months late and no end in sight

    Simple wood floor installation promised to be done in 3 days. It is now 2 months and they do not respond. The experience is frustrating and you will not get satisfaction nor what you buy. Avoid this company!

    a bird flying over a roof

    Used floors for living based upon a neighbor's initial review who then had warranty problems after we had commited and purchased our flooring. The initial crew showed up and did a very bad job installing their product. From Cement running down the risers on the stairs which is very visible, to open gaps on the corners of the stairs due to improper cutting of the risers to mount flush as they should. We have had multiple appointments set to have this work corrected (4 in total) and each instanced they have had anything from car trouble, to not having the proper material to fix the problems. It is a bit frustrating to spend this amount of money, have to adjust work schedules to be home for each apppointment to then have no resolution to issues caused by the installation crew themselves. Ultimately I would say the follow through from the installation has been the major issue along with the errors made themselves.

    Hired them to replace a carpet in my front stairwell and upstairs living room as I prepped to sell my home. Worked with Nathan to arrange the time and date and was told the size of the job would take only about 2 to 3 hours. The morning of the install (Friday of Labor day weekend) 8 of their workers show up with my new carpet to do the job. They tear up and the carpet and the mat underneath, throw the old carpet on to my lawn, then suddenly say they're on the wrong job and walk out the door. After calling Nathan in a panic (I had pictures for the listing scheduled the next day) he claimed the install department made a mistake and the 8 workers were somehow not meant to be at my home, despite having all the materials to do the job. When I mentioned this, Nathan had no response. He claimed there was also no one else to do the job, but when I pressed him he finally said more people would he coming out by 2pm. This is now 4 hours after the scheduled start time. Come 2pm only ONE PERSON showed up to do the job. When he came inside and looked at the job, he stated he wasn't even sure he could complete it. He also mentioned he had spoke to the previous workers and the reason that they left was that they saw how much effort it was going to take because of the number of staples, and decided they weren't going to do it. This particular person then spent the next 8 hours removing the staples to prep for the new mat install. So what was supposed to be an easy 2 hour job now turned into an all day affair disrupting my schedule and causing a delay to listing my home. The same gentleman came out the next morning around 11 once again by himself, to install the new mat and carpet. During the process he banged up the brand new trim in the room (the room had just been remodeled), left marks on the newly painted walls, and broke the connecting tile where the threshold meets the bathroom. I addressed all this with Nathan who didn't seem to bothered by it, but as I pressed for this issue to be fixed asap he finally got around to trying to find a contractor. He claimed he couldn't find anyone after several hours, so I enlisted my contractor who remodeled the room for me in the first place. Nathan did nothing but complain about this and only agreed to pay a fraction of the invoice leaving me to foot the remainder. When asking about a refund, he claimed we weren't eligible for one, and when asking to speak to his manager he claimed he couldn't get a hold of him. This company requires not only an upfront deposit but also charges you the remainder ONE WEEK before the job is done. Absolutely unprofessional company. Avoid at all costs.

    Texas Direct Carpet

    (1 review)

    I am a retired Interior Designer from Star Furniture for 30+ years and have used Texas Carpet…read moreDirect for three different homes. The name sounds like a warehouse but it is far from that. It is owned and operated by Kenny Smith and his wife. One of his projects he loved was remodeling a historic Galveston Home. So, Kenny has a well-rounded knowledge which makes his expertise invaluable. He can visualize the big picture. A great example...My last project was for a resale condo that totally needed to be done and I was 1000 miles away. I trusted his taste to let him make the selections that would blend with my existing bathroom tile. I suggested a laminate all over but the unlevel condo cost was moving out of my budget and then hit with the news the kitchen tile needed to be replaced too. Kenny stepped up and suggested switching to a vinyl plank that can go into the kitchen, dining and living room cost effectively. Then switch to carpet for the bedrooms to avoid cost of leveling that area. He was so patient and sincerely wanted to help me through this process and saved me $1000. People like this are hard to find. Now for quality of work it is excellent for all my projects! I fussed about all the leveling and he told me it is very important; it needs to be done. Then addressed my objection saying we can skip the bedrooms, if we use carpet. Bingo! Thank you! All three jobs turned out beautifully. I would highly recommend Kenny and Texas Carpet Direct for Quality, Trustworthiness and invaluable idea source knowing he carries much more than just Carpet.

    Hire somewhere else... Replaced my entire upstairs carpet with vinyl. Very expensive job…read more Installers do not speak English. No communication as to what the install steps are. Floating was not what Jason told us it would be or the proper way that Coretec requires. One of my floors is very unleveled when it wasn't before. My furniture now sits at a tilted angle. The installers left all the floors with a layer of dirt that leaves your feet very dirty. They left dust and float mud everywhere and they could not understand me when I tried to tell them that the floor is still dirty after they used their broom. ..and at 7 pm at night; my kids need their house back. No one showed up the next day to clean. Jason is giving me the run around about it and repeatedly tells me they are professionals. No, they are not! It also appears that an almost $14,000 job does not give you floors that look new or are clean...it appears that the customer is supposed to clean them, the walls, and the furniture That they failed to cover. The floors look old and dirty. Jason should tell his customers that they will have a big mess to clean up and that the install does not come with clean floors. I had FFL install wood like tile before and did not have this problem. Is this normal protocol for vinyl?????

    Our sales rep Steven was excellent and he has been a pleasure to work with. We like the way our new…read morecarpets look and we will come back to this company if we need additional flooring or carpets. My only critique is regarding the scheduling and installers. There was a mix up with the time when our appointed was scheduled. Also, the installers need to work on their professionalism. They had a tendency to only acknowledge and thank only my husband; however, I was there, too. Making the decision to buy (and pay for) this carpet installation was a joint decision.
