Look at the photos and see for yourself the kind of work they do. ugh;-( We went with Costco and The Floor Store thinking we would have a trouble free premium experience - that didn't happen. After spending upwards of $9,000.00 for product and install. We waited a month to get their "best crews" (they have 16 crews installing). They installed a Caramelized Strand Bamboo flooring the salesman Jim said was 'excellent' throughout Living, Dining, Kitchen, Family rooms. And carpeted 3 bedrooms and a hall. It was a clic flooring so nothing to unusual, it had acclimated in the house for 2+months. I had pointed out areas of the floor to the salesman that I knew would need leveling or some kind of prep. He assured me it was nothing unusual and they did this all time. When they started I saw they were working out of one box at a time. I told them the instructions clearly say to mix boxes.They insisted no it wasn't necessary and even though they came back and fixed one of the really bad places you can see it's actually more than helpful to follow the instructions. What we found with the patch they did do was pulling up the floor and putting it back down leaves seams which are bigger. It just doesn't go together the same way the second time around. Problems: a mix between too big of gaps and almost no expansion/contraction gaps, bouncing and height level gaps and general color weirdness as with no mixing of the boxes easy to see where one box ended and new one began. The carpet they sold us has a running thread (which they didn't inform us about) and I noticed a run had started where the installers put the closet slider door track almost right away. Big gaps along walls. I tried to get the store to do a better job and they referred me to Costco Corporate where I talked with Cameron Smuck, the head of outside sales for flooring. His main concern seemed to be "were they polite, was their yelling?". Yes I told him they were professional no yelling. I called again complaining and asking for something to be done or for a price adjustment and didn't have my my phone call returned. The Floor Store had already sent me to them for resolution. If you think about it Costco is not a good place to use for installed items where they just become an additional middle man that needs a cut of the product. And the Floor Store is too busy to do quality work. I am usually optimistic and I try to work things out. But this was a big fail for me.

See all

“We asked for Shawn and Gretchen to do the install (they did our rental house about 5 years ago) and once again they did a great job.”

We just bought a new home and wanted new carpet, countertop tiles, and a backsplash. Ron was…read morefantastic to work with. We visited the store several times with lots of questions, and he answered every one of them patiently and pleasantly. We picked out our carpet and tile and arranged installation. Ron made a measuring error on the carpet order, but as soon as he caught it, he owned it and fixed it right away. The carpet installers were quick, efficient, and polite. The tile work turned out beautiful, genuinely great craftsmanship. What really stood out, though, was this: when we got the estimate for the carpet installed, we couldn't afford it. We told Ron we'd come back and pick something cheaper. He said, "No, don't bother, I'll talk to my supervisor and get you a discount so you can have the carpet you actually like." And he did. Overall, a great experience from start to finish, and we love the results.

We had two bedrooms recarpeted, and Paulson's turned out to be a great choice. From choosing the…read morecarpet, to measuring, to installation, everything went smoothly. We decided to pay a little bit more to have the two rooms done on different days, so that we would have space to move furniture one room at a time, avoiding having to haul anything up and down stairs. During the decision making process, we quickly got our terminology worked out, so we could be sure both parties knew which room was which for estimates and for scheduling. Paulson's preparation recommendations were very helpful - we knew ahead of time to clear any and all artwork on walls between the front door and the rooms being carpeted. We are very happy with the results. Just FYI, the parking lot does not have an entrance from SE Grand, and Salmon is one way, so circle the block to park.
