Flooring Expo by Carpet King

DO NOT PAY IN FULL UNTIL YOUR FINAL PROJECT IS COMPLETE. They will do everything in their power to ghost you. The shop at home salesman, Mike, came out not once, but twice to show us samples. He was very helpful and dedicated to getting the sale. On 10/23 we signed our purchase agreement to have new carpet installed in our basement (roughly 850sq ft). Once the agreement was signed and a deposit was made, I felt totally ghosted. I had to get in touch with Mike to see what the status of the carpet was, after waiting about a week and a half. I promptly received a call from scheduling, and we scheduled an install for 11/13. Installers arrived at 8 am. Ripped up all of the pre existing carpet and prepped the floors only to find out they were short about 2 feet of carpet and couldn’t finish the job. The installers couldn’t get a hold of their supervisor. So I called several numbers trying to reach someone to figure out what the solution was going to be. Guliana, the customer service rep, was unapologetic and just said they would come back and fix what was left undone. However, they had to order new more carpet that would be coming from GA. Once again, I had to call to figure out when the carpet was going to be ready for install. I was told it would arrive on 11/19 and could be installed on 11/20. Great! Nope. On 11/19, I received a voicemail confirming that the installers would call me between 7 & 9 am on 11/20 to confirm their arrival time. At 10 am- and no call- I once again had to track someone down to figure out what was going on. Only to find out that there was a delay with the truck and our carpet wasn’t going to be unloaded off the truck until Monday or Tuesday of next week. Due to the holidays and my work schedule, being unable to take time off- we are now looking at a install date of 12/4. 6 weeks from the start of this project and 3 weeks from the first install. Guliana is less than helpful nor apologetic. The only solution he offered was to have people come to my home while we are out of town to finish the install. In what world would anyone think that is an appropriate solution??? Mike, has also ghosted us. He literally leaves you on read if you text him, and won’t answer your calls. Don’t waste your time or money with them.

excellent customer service

Great job! Love the new carpet!

Patrick was awesome to work with as was the whole team!

Terrible installation. Stairs had to be redone . Pad didn’t cover whole step. Very few tacks were holding carpet on each step . Definite flaws in carpet yet they still installed it . 2nd install did it correct . They were suppose to bring new silver transition strips, he said he didn’t know anything about it . Scheduled a few days later as he was very busy that day .... he never showed up . When he did come out he had 2 transition strips that matched out of the 3 I needed. Youd think he’d put the 2 that matched at the bathrooms that were on the same floor and the one that didn’t down in the basement laundry ! Or bring 3 that match ! But noooo! Unbelievable! Asked him why he did that and he said the carpet was too soft , what the ?!?! Communication between store and installers is horrific . Tabatha asked for photos of the flaws so I sent photos of the flaws to her. A week later she called and left a voicemail to send photos of the flaw. Still unresolved 😡 Would not refer this company ever !

the work was done well. they were on time

Worse install experience ever. We have a 1800 square foot basement and they did not even use a power carpet stretcher. They only used a knee kicker! Seams were horrible. Had to have them come back and redo several of them the day after initial install. Now a few seams are coming apart and they will not warranty them, 3 years later. No lifetime install guarantee here. Never again will I purchase from them. Do yourself a favor and go through a small local carpet dealer instead.

The floor looks nice, but it’s going to be three days to complete the project because they had to order an extra piece, everything was covered in a thick layer of dust, we had to move all our furniture back in the house ourselves (even though we paid extra for this service), they didn’t reattach the railing, and they forgot to plug the dishwasher in after moving it. No amount taken off our bill, no promise that they will be able to fix it tomorrow. Would not recommend.

On time and quick! Would hire again.

This was my second project with Carpet King, first time around it was great. This time I had a worse experience. My carpet came in late, had to pick new carpet. The installers called on the way, they didn’t know they were moving furniture, I paid extra to have it done. They were inconsistent with masks, AND, I have some nail heads sticking out on my stairs. I’m not sure I’d go back

Everything was very easy and highly recommend!

Great customer service and the installation was top notch. They took their time and did a great job. That’s the reason we’ve gone to them multiple times.

Timely and very helpful! Our sales person helped us meet a deadline that we were afraid we couldn’t make...

Carpet king was the best company to work with! They by far had the most competitive prices and the measurement process was dead on accurate! Sam was a great to work with and was so good at keeping me updated on the process!

Sheila is the best. She educated us on different types of flooring and suggested those suited for our specific needs.She is very knowledgeable with all flooring and taught us a lot that we didn't know. I took many samples back and forth because I couldn't make up my mind and she was very patient with me.Additionally, she kept me updated on my shipment and was very helpful during every step of the way.

They are amazing. The the selection and service at the Knolwood location was great. We picked the Cali VLP for our floors and it turned out stunning. I was amazed by the floor technicians that did our stairs and their attention to detail!

Don was an absolut pleasure to work with. He was very knowledgeable and very helpful with choosing our new Kitchen floor. I highly recommend Flooring Expo and ask for Don.

The carpet (already installed) we originally chose was defected. When we discovered it and brought it to their attention, they were able to work with the manufacture to replace it at no cost to us in a very reasonable amount of time.

The technicians were experienced, attending to all details. From the frontline sales rep to the installation of quality carpeting ... would recommend and use Carpet King again.

Easy to work with , got the job done !!

The service I received was friendly and courteous. Sheila was great to work with. she kept me updated on everything and checked in to make sure that I was happy with everything

Shelia did a fantastic job of helping me find the perfect carpet and making the process simple and easy. I went in not knowing anything about carpet and was nervous about the entire process. She not only educated me on the differences and what to look for in a carpet, but helped make sure i got the right carpet for my family and that looked amazing. I would highly recommend going to this location over any of the other places you might think to go to for carpet. You will not regret it!

Super happy with every step of this process! Install team was awesome and FAST! Carpet looks great and feels even better. Couldn’t be happier!

My husband and I had a great time shopping for carpet for our steps at Carpet King in Coon Rapids! Sheila helped us out. She was extremely knowledgeable about all types of flooring and was able to help us pick out a high quality wool carpet. We were going to have a friend install it, but the price for Carpet King to install couldn’t be beat so we went with Carpet King for everything. Sheila was amazing in trying to save us money and steer us in the right direction from start to finish! The installer was great and did an awesome job in such a professional manner. We even got a call the next day from Sheila making sure we were happy with everything! Top notch customer service, good quality products at an affordable price is what you’ll find when you shop at Carpet King for your flooring needs!

Jessica was a great help when finding carpet and very patient, as it took us many months before buying, waiting for the perfect sale. She called periodically letting us know of the sales they had going on. She even remembered us and the carpet we were looking at after not seeing us for 4 months. After we purchased the carpet she went out of her way to call and give me a rebate they had going on. Excellent customer service!! And I love our new carpet. I will definitely be going back!

We bought our carpet 6 months ago. Jessica gave me recommendations based on the color I was looking for and she was very personable. Amazing customer service!! I highly recommend her and Carpet King!! A+

Jessica was awesome. She beat our quote from Home Depot and sold us a better carpet and pad. The installers were efficient - we couldn’t be happier!

Friendly service and great selection. Thank you Sheila!

Excellent service! Knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff.

Fast knowledgeable service and affordable prices!!

We are Pleased with the job and carpet that was installed,

They were Honest, didn't try to put us in a more expensive flooring when our plan is to sell the home but gave us good advice. Excellent install.

Horrible Customer Service, the floor was measured incorrectly. They ordered stair treads which I did not. I am still waiting for a response 2 weeks later.

Great prices, products and service. Highly recommend.

Great service. Carpet came in early.Installed early. Love it.

Very disappointed with the oak wood flooring we had installed by carpet king. the wood floor it’s self was a beautiful product that ended up being installed wrong. Even with clear instructions on how we wanted our floor to look the floor installer was confused and started asking us questions but we don’t install wood floors so I was hoping for someone with experience. Needless to say our wood floor was installed with cracks, chips, nail holes and trim split with a large gap meeting our other wood floor. On top of it he made a huge mess outside our front door leaving wood chips and saw dust everywhere! Now we are waiting for someone to come out and fix it or either tear it out and start over. Our very first home project nightmare. Carpet king uses contract wood floor installers I’m told. Lesson learned to do my research next time.

Used these people twice .Great service each time.

Am so happy with my new wood floors I had great service from the sales staff all the way to my installation staff

order correctly, have communication with customer when the carpet is delayed. lots of room for improvement.

Excellent job, fabulous service, great value!

Super happy with every step of this process! Install team was awesome and FAST! Carpet looks great and feels even better. Couldn’t be happier!

My recent experience with Carpet King was great! We couldn’t be happier with the quality, price, fast delivery and great installation. This is my fourth installation in 25 years with Carpet King and have found no reason to go anywhere else!! Great Job!
