I did some shopping around when I was looking at carpet for my house. I got two bids from firms in Portland, one of which I had used previously, and also checked out pricing at a big box store. I knew my square footage, and it is always good to get multiple quotes.
I also decided to go to Sean, at Affordable Floors, and get a quote from him as well. He is local in Vancouver, and I know exactly where the store is located. He had a great price, and he has his own installers who work for him. The timing of when he could do the work was very good. Sean really worked with me and gave me options. He told me that I could move the furniture myself or they could do it.
Everything was done when he said it would be. He ordered larger samples for me because I couldn't tell what I wanted with the smaller samples. He was very easy to work with. Sean is really mellow, and Affordable Floors seems to have a good reputation. There was also no pressure, and I really appreciated that. I am very happy with him.
They have a lot of product. Based on the information Sean gave me about the products I went with a different carpet than I was planning to originally. The carpet I picked first is a brand new product, so it hasn't been around long enough for anyone to test the durability. I decided to go with an older product from the same manufacturer because the durability is well known.
It was a very large job. It was wall to wall carpeting throughout the whole house, which is 3 bedrooms, the living room, dining room, and family room. Sean always met his deadlines. It looks fantastic; it is fabulous. I was very impressed with the skill of the installers. They did a beautiful job, and there was absolutely no waste. He measured perfectly.
There was one issue where the carpet in the office got a bubble. I called Affordable Floors, and they came and took care of it. It only took 20 minutes and then everything was fine. It was a great experience. It was a smooth, easy transaction. I would highly recommend them. The next time I have a flooring need, I will go to them first.
