Purchased 3 rooms of laminate flooring on Sept 16th. Flooring installed on 9/28/2024. There was a problem with one of the transitions that did not match. I pointed rhar out to the installer who called customer service on her way out. I also noticed a miscut along a wall that they tried to hide with quarter round. I also pointed this out to the installer at the time. After a few days I noticed that all of the transitions except one were not secured/installed properly. I called my sales *** and he gave me a number to call, which I did on Sept 30. I finally reached ****** ******, customer service ***resentative, on Oct 9 and she asked me to email pictures of the issues, which I did. Her email ***ly indicated that she would forward the pictures to the customer service department and they would respond within 24 hours. I received a call on Ict 18 from a customer service agent named ***** *******, who said he needed to look at the issue in person. As I had Covid, he asked me to call him back in a few days. I did that multiple times and left multiple messages. I also reached out to my sales ***resentative who left messages for ***** *******. I called and emailed multiple times to every contact and am still waiting for an appointment for ***airs. I am hoping that BBB can help me get these minor ***airs handledBusiness Response

Thank you for reaching out to the company on my behalf. A representative did come out in person to view the issues. He used liquid nails to secure the loose transitions and promised to send someone to replace the miscut piece of flooring and the transition that is not the right color. I will wait and see if that happens.Business Response

We had carpet and flooring installed in January and while the price was nice, the after sales service has been quite lacking. While doing the install, the workers pulled one set of curtain rods out of one room, bent multiple door stops, put a hole in our $4000 bed which will void our warranty and the wood strip on the vinyl plank had to be redone and it is now cracking in multiple places. We received no paperwork on the warranty for the carpet or the vinyl plank we had installed. They also put a hole in the wall outside our bedroom and took paint off the corner on the stairs when moving carpeting upstairs. My wife called multiple times and the manager, *** I believe his name is, came out and basically did nothing and dismissed our concerns. Now I am going to need to contact them again about the cracking wood strip and I fear nothing will be done about it. I definitely will not look to them for future flooring needs.Business Response

Complaint: 22516934
I am rejecting this response because:We had ****** come out to see the damage done and she basically blew off the entire list of issues. The hole they put in the mattress she called a snag and she suggested we fix the curtain rod ourselves and the broken door stops we should just replace ourselves. She was very insistent that my wife sign a "resolution form" before she left even though nothing was resolved. She was very rude and short with my wife who eventually asked her to leave. I have a text from the area manager asking to come out next week with the regional manager of the installation team but having been blown off twice about the damages, once right after the carpet and flooring was installed and then the recent visit by ******, I am hesitant to do so. My wife even called the corporate office but as of this response, they have not returned her call. It appears that we may need to go to small claims court to get this resolved unless someone starts taking our concerns seriously.

0n 9/14/2022, 50 Floors's subcontractors came to install our vinyl plank flooring. After removing the existing plank laminate flooring, they dId NOT level or repair subfloor that they were supposed to do. Instead we were told because it was a doublewide mobile home the only way to level the seam running down the middle where the two sides join together was to grind down the steel beam underneath. I also pointed out the several areas in kitchen and living room that had been repaired before that needed to be leveled before the new flooring was installed. There were also several areas that squeaked that were to be fixed. They went ahead and installed the new vinyl plank flooring without doing anything to fix these issues. On the Certificate of Completeion I did not circle the answer as to whether or not I was satisfied with the installation. Most of the installers did not understand English and ignored my request to fix the problems.I contacted 50 Floors on 9/20/2024 to file a warranty claim as the product has failed. It is cracking in the areas that were not level and it dips down. Also the ends of several planks are peeling off. As others have reported, 50 Floors, blames everything one water. This certainly is not my issue. I was told because there is only a 1 year warranty on the installation that it would cost me over $1600 plus repair of the subfloor (should have been done initially). I have asked to have the product only replaced since it has a lifetime warranty. Another claim has been filed with their vendor. Once I receive the product I will have to hire someone who knows how to install flooring correctly. I DO NOT RECOMMEND 50 Floors as they do not train or vett their 3rd party contractors on vinyl plank flooring installation in mobile homes.Business Response
Date: 10/22/2024
Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We apologize for the inconvenience youve experienced with your installation and understand how frustrating this situation must be. While the one-year installation warranty did expire on 9/15/2023, we have submitted a claim as of 10/22/2024 to the vendor concerning the product itself. As you mentioned issues with cracking and peeling planks, we will work through the claims process to address the product concerns.
It may take between 30 to 90 days to process the claim. Unfortunately, this timeframe is beyond our control, but we are committed to keeping you updated with any new developments along the way.
Regarding the subfloor issues you mentioned, our installation crew follows the manufacturer's guidelines for leveling and subfloor preparation. Please rest assured that we take the vetting of our installation teams seriously. We work closely with each team to ensure high standards of installation are maintained across various home types, including mobile homes.
Thank you again for your patience as we work through the claims process. If you have any further questions or need additional clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out at ************.

Complaint: 22453610
I am rejecting this response because:
As the attached picture shows the subfloor was repaired prior to the original laminate flooring being installed years before. There were at least 3 to 4 of this type of repair and none were leveled by the subcontracted installers prior to installing the new vinyl plank. As stated previously, the seam where the two sections join together was not leveled either. Given the flexibility of the vinyl product, I would like to know what the product manufacturers installation guidelines say about floor prep before installation.

As the installation warranty expired on 9/15/2023, our ability to provide corrective measures directly is limited. However, in our commitment to your satisfaction, we invite you to seek a certified third-party flooring inspection. Should the independent inspectors report indicate any findings related to the installation or product that would fall under manufacturer guidance, we are happy to review the report and take it into further consideration.

Hi Valued Client,
Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced with your flooring and appreciate the opportunity to respond to your claim.We understand that you filed a claim on 9/25/2024 regarding the issues with your laminate flooring. Upon reviewing the pictures, you provided; we submitted the information to the manufacturer. Unfortunately, the claim was denied due to site conditions causing the damage, rather than a product defect. This determination was made based on the manufacturers evaluation. Additionally, we want to note that the one-year installation warranty expired on 3/15/2022, and the installation was completed in good standing on 3/15/2021.
While the claim was denied, we are still committed to assisting you. We have offered to ship four cartons of material at no cost to help address the areas of concern. We also provided an option for a full replacement with upgraded material at cost, should you choose to move forward with that solution.
If you would like to further pursue this matter, you have the option of hiring an independent certified flooring inspector through the National Wood Flooring Association (****). If an inspection report identifies any product-related defects, we would be happy to reopen the claim and review the findings. However, please note that any site damage will void the warranty.
We are here to assist in any way we can and hope to find a resolution that works for you. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please feel free to reach out at ************.

I have been waiting for a refund of $1,100.00 for over three months. I have called several times. I have spoken to the manager twice. I eventually called the regional. He looked in to it. He assured me that I would receive my refund in two weeks. That two weeks was over a month ago. I call and left the regional manager a voice massage on September 26, 2024 that I was still waiting on my refund. I received a phone call that same morning from the store Manager ****. He basely apologized and said my check was sitting on someones desk and it never got mail out. he assured me that I would see it by the offing Wednesday which would have been the 2nd of October.

Vinyl floor was put into our home in November 2023 that floor is now buckling and coming up; we have had the installer back out who said it was moisture that caused the issue. This may be the case but I don't believe so. Another thing mentioned was there was no moisture barrier put down in the crawl space this was not mentioned by the sales person. I feel that this sale and installation was mishandle and that it is not fair that 50 Floors would walk away from a botched job with no answers. I am currently trying to sell my house and this is a big barrier to that being accomplished.Business Response

I bought my floor for about $8000 back in 2021. The flooring originally within 6 months had 2 issues with installation in which they fixed the associated boards. Recently. SEPTEMBER 25TH, 2024, i contacted them to attempt to get warped floorboards beneath my computer desk repaired in which I estimate would be about 8 planks worth of replacement. They refused. As far as I see, they have a 15year limited warranty that should cover this problem. first problem being, there is a gap more than their 3mm present, 2nd problem being the flooring has warped. They are attempting to say it's water damage, and are attempting to blame water leaking in from a window on the problem. My windows are 4 years old, and outdate the flooring installation. They are brand new and are not leaking. I would appreciate assistance in this matter getting resolved. Upon resolution, i will rescind my low review based on this issue, and replace it with an appropriate 5 star review based on the performance i've gotten.Business Response

We purchased Vinyl flooring with a 20-year product warranty. The panels are curling up on the edges and the ends causing bad appearance and having chairs getting stuck on the edges.We began trying to get this resolved in Feb 2024. After a number of their employees, ***** and ****, supposedly trying to help, i was given the regional manager information, *** ****, in ***** area. He stated that neither of his employees did anything and they in effect lied to us. Mr. **** stated he would get with the manufacture on July 16 and get back to me. on July 24 I asked for a follow-up. Surprisingly he stated that he just heard from the manufacture.

Thank you for your response and for clarifying your concerns regarding the **** issue following the installation on July 30, 2024. We appreciate your patience as we work through this matter.
After thoroughly reviewing the details of your complaint, including discussions with our seasoned installer and the signed Certificate of Completion (COC), we must respectfully decline to offer any compensation. Our installer confirms that the air conditioning was not turned back on during or after the installation process, and no mention of any AC issues was made until now. A copy of the signed *** has been provided with the complaint for your records.
We understand that you believe this situation has resulted from our installation, but based on the evidence we have, including the precautions taken during the installation, we do not find any negligence on our part.
We value your feedback and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.
Respectfully,
50Floor

I am rejecting this response because:The ** unit was not wrapped because it sits outside the home. The ** return opening is in the work area (see attached picture) and fully exposed to debris, which consequently damaged the blower fan. The pictures you provided only show plastic covering the doorways and do not address the issue at hand. They are a blatant diversion from the facts.
Most notably, your technicians turned on our ** unit which we had shut off as to protect the system. The homeowner has years of experience in the HV** field and knows the unit must be turned off to protect the system so that debris do not get pulled into the ** return.
I hope we can find a resolution to this matter.
Sincerely,
