      Date of Transaction - 3/21/22 Carpet One Floor and Home committed to the removal of our existing laminate floor, installation of LVP and new base boards, move and replace furnishings. Cost $13,641. This quote did NOT have a concrete sealer or moisture barrier included.Dispute: Carpet One is unwilling to resolve our flooring failures, denies any Installation failures per manufacturers guidelines, and basically says that its a moisture issue and there is nothing they can do about it. Why wasnt the moisture issue discussed prior to the floor being installed? Only until there were noticeable problems was it ever discussed. They made several attempts to appease us but did not stand by their installation is guaranteed for the life of the floor. Management recommended we submit claim to our ******************** for the moisture issue; they had also given us another quote of $13, 521, which included a concrete sealer, to fix the problems. Upon both claims being denied by our ******************** companies ******* and Tower Hill) based on the fact that there was evidence of moisture and that the Manufacturers Installation Instructions stated that a moisture barrier was REQUIRED during install. Carpet One failed to acknowledge this error and meeting with **** Gilbert, he had no recommendations to assist us. ************************* finally suggested the installation of porcelain tile as an option, which **** was to get back with us with further options. At no time did he try to make things right with us.Our home is 20 years old and our previous laminate flooring had no moisture issues.Although we have tried to work with Carpet One, the communication issues, follow up calls, and customer service have been terrible. They are unwilling to stand by their warranties and guarantees.************************* ********************************************************************************* Quote #: ***** 3/21/22 at ************ Carpet One location Installation date: 5/12/22

      I had four rooms in my house vinyl flooring installed on August 2022. About a couple of months later noticed some warping or buckling. Called Carpet One. They said it could be some normal settling, Keep getting worst. Called again in middle of July and said the problem is worst. They sent some one overtook pictures and check the warping of the floors. I did not anything back. Called again. Said they were going to have factory person and check it out. No one showed up. Went down to Carpet One in person. They said they would send some one up to check. Some guy came up called Andrew. Looked it over then basicly said that I would have to live with it. Floors are so warped that you could scuff your feet on them and trip. I want my money back. They did not honor the One Year Warrantee. So, I want my money back so I can go someplace else to get my floors corrected. I don't want to deal with these people anymore.

      Carpet One Floor & Home Response

      11/06/2023

      Mr. ****** did purchase flooring from Carpet One Floor & Home which was professionally installed in August of 2022 and completed to his satisfaction, please see attached "completion to satisfaction."   Mr. ****** called stating he was having issues with the flooring and on 10/18/23 our operations Manager visited the site to determine what issues were involved and found that Mr. ****** had significant plumbing leaks in his slab thus flooding the floor and home requiring 3 weeks of remediation and the plumbing has since been moved to the attic.  The flooring performed as expected and no warrantable issue was found since he does have a possible insurance claim to cover such damage but it would not be warranted by the flooring manufacturer.  It's unfortunate when someone does not tale the truth and include all the facts and chooses to make slanderous inaccurate remarks.

      Customer Response

      11/09/2023

      Yes, I did have a pluming leak on May 25, 2022. The insurance company hired a restoration company from Orlando, and they dried everything out. The restoration company was here for over 10 days or more drying out everything. We had over 15 fans running and dehumidifiers all over the place. When they got down they told me the floors where ready to have flooring down. The restoration company took moisture test, and everything was OK. But the flooring company should have prepared the concrete properly. They are supposed to be the experts. The concrete should have been primed before installation. The house has been repiped. There is no leaks under the house. I checked with other companies, and they told me that this is what they would have down.
