I have had a good experience with Sam and his workers. They originally installed my flooring a few years ago. I had an unexpected problem and they stopped by my place to fix it for a very reasonable price and very quickly. I recommend them for their integrity and quick and good service. read more

We were introduced to A-1 Floor Covering about three years ago through a client who had been working with them for many years, and we've been consistently impressed ever since. This family-owned and operated business is well-run and highly dependable. Sam and Stan are excellent to work with--organized, responsive, and skilled at coordinating with tenants to ensure installations go smoothly. Their pricing is competitive, and the quality of their work is consistently high. I've also had the chance to visit their beautiful showroom, which is thoughtfully curated and makes the selection process easy and enjoyable. A-1 Floor Covering has become a trusted partner for our flooring needs, and we highly recommend them. read more

Classic bait and switch used here by Stan and company. I called to inquire last Friday for the CoreTek Red River Hickory flooring and Stan got all the information. He quoted a sale price and advised me to message him on their website for the exact square footage and any trim pieces needed. I messaged on Monday evening the details of the order and followed up with a call next day. Stan said the sale price is over and cannot be honored while giving the regular price. Id I knew the sale ended when I called I would have placed the order while he was on the phone. At least let people know that the price is changing soon so customers can plan accordingly. Hopefully, they use better sales practices with others. read more

I was looking for Marmoleum and a retailer with Forbo trained installers. I had a previous very bad experience with a contractor who truly did not have any knowledge of the floor preparation and installation requirements for linoleum. Sam and his dad Stan at A-1 have Forbo trained installers who do a great job. They were speedy and clean and the job was reasonably priced. I recommend them. read more

Excellent people to do business with. If you value honesty and ethics, this is the place for you. The owners and the installers are professional, responsible, and on time. They delivered everything they promised. Will do business with them again. Thank you Sam. read more

Used A1 about 10 or so years ago to install engineered wood floor in my personal condo and it went really well. Reached out to them again for a quote on a West L.A. rental remodel I had that required all new flooring and significant amount of cracked concrete sub-floor repair. Sam came back with what I thought was a very fair quote for all the work and a great quality product (solid core (SPC) vinyl plank) fully installed. Their showroom is clean, bright, well organized and I got good info on the different products. Working with Sam was a breeze. He communicated very well (a big deal with me) and answered all my questions. His installers were friendly, on time, careful, efficient and went above and beyond in terms of adding extra/special trim work where needed. Overall, was extremely happy with the job and would not hesitate to use A1 again for any flooring needs. read more

Excellent selection and high quality. We've used them for over 30 years!!! A good family owned business.

A1 flooring is the best! Stan, the owner is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever done business with. They have installed carpeting for me and also hardwood flooring over the last 30 years!! His crew is great. They go above and beyond! I would highly recommend A1 Flooring to anybody who needs any type of flooring installed! read more

Amazing service. Sam spent a lot of time at the shop to explain our various options for re-doing the large entryway and dining area of our house. With two messy cats and past termite issues, we wanted a beautiful, no-fuss, easy maintenance, termite-proof solution. We quickly identified Adura Vinyl Planks as our solution. Alex and his installation team were top-notch, friendly, and compliant with Covid protocols, even though we were both vaccinated. He and his team worked round-the-clock and were able to install the flooring and install brand new baseboards with primer. The floor looks gorgeous and we couldn't be happier. read more

We only use A-1 Floor Covering for our flooring needs. They matched or beat prices we received from competitors and the work they do is wonderful. Sam is patient and easy to work with and his installation team is top notch. We trust them and the proof is in the quality of work they deliver. I have even used them for my office flooring and they were able to work within office building restrictions and guidelines. We have installed hardwood, vinyl plank flooring and carpeting over the years and whatever they install looks fabulous. read more

Stan has provided flooring solutions to the building where I rent in Santa Monica for over 40 years, and I have never been disappointed. His prices are fair and his installation crews do work that is consistently very good. Stan has great manners and business acumen. All in all, A1 is good for both owners and tenants. They get the Peterson Family seal of approval. read more

great guys, stan and sam are a great pleasure to work with. My friend who referred me came through. not the cheapest of the people I interviewed with but they were the most knowledgeable and trustworthy. Thanks again guys! read more

We have nothing but great things to say about this company! As we planned out remodel of our condo, we found this company in our neighborhood. Worked directly with Sam, who was a calming presence as we were getting crazed over making all these decisions. We made a selection, then changed our minds, no problem! The actual installation was delayed 6 weeks due to supply chain issues with our kitchen. No problem. Dealt with an uneven concrete surface and other issues, no problem. And got the whole job installed in 2.5 days and did a beautiful job! His crew were some of the hardest working men we've ever seen. We are more than pleased, and will use them again soon as we need to replace carpet in the bedrooms next. Thank you, Sam, for a job very well done! read more

Outstanding work and outstanding service by everyone at A-1 Floor Covering! It's easy to see why they have been a local business gem since 1950, for three generations! Yesterday and today they upgraded our flooring and did a beautiful job, as they have done over the years for so many customers. I highly recommend them! read more

We loved our experience with A-1 Flooring! Sam Levy totally took care of us. We had a really bad water leak that destroyed our over 2,000 sf seamless wood flooring. We had already found the flooring we wanted, L M flooring, the Summit collection in Forge. We had redone our kitchen last year and had extended our crushed glass counters over our existing hardwood floors so to remove our old hardwood floors was going to be very tricky. We interviewed 5 other flooring companies two were way over priced at over $40,000. One told us it was impossible to get a seamless transition from our bar waterfall to our flooring. We never called him back. I found Sam through the L M Flooring website as one of their carriers, He had the flooring almost a dollar less a sf than the place we found in Acadia. He came over and we showed him our concerns, 3 custom built in cabinets and our bar waterfall plus our fireplace tile that was all level with our current flooring. He assured us it would be tricky but he thought he could give us the look we wanted. He emailed us a bid which was our second lowest and that along with his confidence and calm demeanor made us choose him. His lead Flooring person Alex, turned out to be a flooring genius, he achieved the impossible and had some great ideas and some stellar aesthetics. the whole crew of guys were very hardworking and had great attitudes, we seriously could recommend A-1 flooring more heartily. Thanks again guys read more

Had a great experience with A-1 Flooring. We needed to replace and repair our kitchen floor and they did a great job. We had marmoleum there and wanted the same for the new floor. They were really knowledgable about the product, very good at estimating the shipping time to get it here, answered all our questions, were very good at replying to emails and calls, and then they had a great installation team. The guys did great work and cleaned up afterwards. New floor looks amazing. We're very happy. read more

Informed, helpful service. I walked into the A-1 showrooms with questions about various projects. The guys gave me helpful, considered information. They even referred me down the street for a product they didn't carry but they thought would be best for my project. These guys have an honest vibe though I haven't completed a project with them. I will update if I follow through with a purchase from them. read more

The Best! I have used A-1 floor for my hardwood floors. The first time they did only the kitchen and matched the rest perfectly. I just had almost the whole house floor refinished and they did an excellent job. Unfortunately the floors got scratched moving a jukebox back but A-1 refinished the floors a second time to perfection. Stan and Sam stand by their work and want the customer happy. I can't recommend them enough. Its nice to support a family run business who you can personally talk to. USE THEM! read more

I am VERY unhappy with the quality of workmanship A-1 Flooring Covering Co. provided for the installation of both laminate wood floors and linoleum flooring for my kitchen and bath. The product itself is excellent but the installers were sloppy and took shortcuts throughout my apartment. I called the owner after the job was finished and he sent a difference installer to "fix" the problems created by the first team. However, after a few months (done in July 2016), there are other very noticeable problems starting to surface. The work is just plain shoddy and for this reason I would never recommend A-Flooring. read more

Stan provided excellent customer service! His calm, informed and patient demeanor made the process of selecting flooring that much easier. If you're looking for quality service and a great price, I highly recommend them! read more

I needed a hardwood floor installed for a display for work. I have never done this before, so I turned to Yelp to find some potential companies to work with. Yelp gave me some good options and I set up some meetings at the location. Stan met me at the store right on time with samples in hand. He clearly new his stuff - he was the most informed out of all of the companies I met with. I was grateful for the samples, too - we ended up going with a color different from the original color we thought we would be using. Stan was also able to get us scheduled really quickly. We were in a time crunch and he was able to get installers out there within the week. His price was right around the other quotes, so I wasn't charged extra for the quick turnaround. I will definitely use them again on future projects! read more

Super helpful staff. Very knowledgeable. Helped me to get newer product for remodel of house. Super happy w quality of product. read more

A-1 Floor Covering - Shaw waterproof hardwood in oak. - Flooring Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We discovered A-1 in 2013 when they ripped up our crappy old wall to wall carpeting with the good stuff. They did a great job. It was so good that we just had them replace our kitchen floor in December 2019. The result was as expected (based on their great work on the carpet). Stan, Sam, Sharon.....they know their floors. They won't steer you wrong. Gotta love the mom and pop establishments!! read more

This is EXACTLY why you choose a mom-n-pop business. Excellent service, a fair price and installed one day early. THANK YOU Stan for your help and service. Will absolutely use you folks again. Very satisfied and very strongly recommend. read more

After spending years thinking about re-doing my floors, I finally pulled the trigger only to find out it was difficult to find a reasonably priced, quality laminate in the style/color I wanted. After another year of visiting various showrooms/warehouses, I randomly walked into A-1 where Stan lead me to the exact laminate I'd been looking for all that time! I picked out a carpet for the bedroom, we arranged a measuring, and the estimate came back right inline with others I had received, only this time I didn't have to compromise on the materials. A couple of days after ordering, the materials arrived, and the job was scheduled and completed in 3 days, exactly as Stan had told me. To be honest I was blown away by the fast turnaround and quality of the work. The guys showed up on time each day, were extremely friendly, informative and handled their business like true pros. They went the extra mile, hiding unsightly cables under the floors and adjusting the height of my stove to account for the extra height of the new floor. I'm super picky about the smaller details, but these guys had it all covered; the seems/edges and all the finishing touches were super clean. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend A-1. read more

EXCELLENT !! We replaced our kitchen flooring & bedroom carpeting with A-1. Sam and Stan provided prompt, fair, exceptional quality service. They have an excellent selection of flooring and vendors, and helped us find great quality for our budget. The installation crew was very receptive to our requests, and cleaned up nicely after the job. Thank you, A-1 ! read more

Friendly and professional. I have used A1 to purchase and install hard wood flooring in my house to match. They went above and beyond service wise. They are a local company to my neighborhood, extra bonus they are in walking distance! I've gone back to them to help me cut and bind a rug and they were very helpful as well. Would go back again if I need something. read more

A-1 Floor Covering was a great find. Stan Levy and Sam Levy offer great customer service and fair prices. The new floor was installed a day or two after we accepted the final proposal. The installation team was fast and efficient. I recommend A-1 Floor Covering very highly and will definitely use their services again when necessary. read more

This review is very late in being written, but I wanted to make sure that I wrote it because A-1 Flooring was excellent and treated us well. Their pricing is fair and they have good selection. We ended up installing wood look luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout most of our downstairs. We were doing the remodel at the end of the year and they were not able to get our first couple of selections in stock from the manufacturer. They did recommend another brand that looked very similar to our initial choices. They sent a guy out to measure and identify all of the pieces we would need. Our only negative was we had to call them back to get the actual estimate (and it took them a couple of days to find it). Otherwise, everything was great. The guy who measured arrived within 5 minutes of his scheduled time and measured everything. Their install team showed up promptly every morning, often 5 minutes early. I watched them work a couple of the days and they worked hard the entire time. I didn't see them rest one time except for when I gave them gatorades. The install team was polite, kind, friendly, and efficient. Each person clearly new they had a job to do and what to do and did it. The floors look beautiful and have held up well. We are considering changing out our upstairs carpeting and will go back to A-1 and give them our business first. read more

This company came to us through a neighborhood ad. Their prices are competitive. The showroom is well lit and spacious. The father and son team are great. The daughter had opinions which iI'm glad i chose to ignore or I would have made a terrible choice. The choices in the lower end price range, well, they are on the extreme side of limited. But the workers are responsible, thorough and professional. When I called back to have them look at a part of the floor that caused me concern, the men came the next day and fixed it - no fuss. read more

I'm pretty used to lowering my expectations. I can happily report that for once, my expectations were not only met, but exceeded. Let me explain... I decided to get my floors done (replace nasty old carpet with hardwood) after I just purchased a condo. The condo association is really strict about rules (a sound test had to be made to make sure that the floors complied with their sound regulations) so I wanted to make sure I got somebody who would do a good job. The first guy I was referred to was a flake and didn't return calls. Then he quoted me an exorbitantly high price. A friend recommended A-1. Stan was very professional and polite. He patiently answered my questions and was very respectful. His workers were punctual and cleaned up after themselves. The job was done on time and at the price he quoted me for. He was available to answer any questions before, during and after the installation when I had to provide the condo association with some information. Thanks Stan and A-1. I highly recommend them. read more

You know those beautiful floors at the Tiki Room in Disneyland? We loved those - and hoped to put them in our bathroom. We searched for small stone/pebble flooring for years. Couldn't find them anywhere (yes, we searched online). We about gave up - and stopped by A-1 Floor Covering just to ask about installing our second choice - a wood laminate. Here's where the magic started. During the consultation, Sam asked us more about the project and immediately understood what we were really looking for. He went into his office, did some research and came out with samples that matched exactly what we were looking for! It was a flooring type we'd never heard of. A few weeks later, the floors were installed and look awesome! It's exactly what we were looking for. We're thrilled. We've had the floors for more than year now - and they still look great. read more

I called A-1 Floor twice to schedule an appointment to replace my living room and bedroom carpet with flooring to match the rest of the house. The first appointment they never showed up. They also never bothered to call and explain why they didn't show up. Then I called again. They apologized and said that they would be sure to take care of it. At the time of the second appointment they called and said they were running late, but would call me when they were on their way. They never called back and never showed up. Definitely NOT giving them a third chance. I'll go to a business that wants the work. read more

Stan was great. He answered the phone personally every time I called which earns 5-stars on its own. But in addition to that, he was knowledgeable on the products, quick with quotes, competitively priced, had excellent email communication, updated me on delivery times, and even coordinated a product drop-off with my tenants without me having to be there. I'm looking forward to my next water intrusion disaster just so I can buy more wood from these guys. This is what brick and mortar business are all about. read more

This company was referred to me by a friend for hardwood flooring. I too her word, but explored other options as well. I could have skipped the other options. Stan, the owner of A-1 Floors was so pleasant, helpful, honest, and truthful about the work needing to be done. He got samples for me, went out of his way to give me as many options as he could. Then when I finally made my selection, the work was started the next day and done in a clean and expeditious manner. I would recommend this company to anyone who wants the job done right by a reputable company. read more

This place is fantastic. Got the job done very quickly. From speaking to me over the phone to helping me in person, they were great. They came and measured the office immediately and were putting in the flooring the following business day. The guys who did the flooring were very nice and professional, and most importantly did an excellent job. Prices super low and reasonable too, and they will help you find something within your budget! read more

If you need flooring, you can go to these guys and rest assured that they will take the time to discuss your options, give you realistic estimates for the job, and get the job done on time and budget. They don't hard sell you into anything, and they listen to what you want and try to deliver that. Given all the sketchy businesses that abound in LA, the above qualities rate 5 stars as far as I'm concerned. Specifically, on one of the projects that we worked with A1 on, the install was ok, but not perfect. When I brought this to their attention, they came out to look at it again, agreed that it could have been better and offered to redo it or offer a significant discount if we could live with it. No hassle, no arguments, no problem. They care about their reputation. We went back to them for more jobs and are glad we did. read more

From the moment I walked into the showroom until after the job was done, I am 100% pleased. Great selection, quality and current styles. Another place (I was using before) had a selection that was getting thinner and thinner (as was the product quality). Sam came to measure the job (same day) and was able to schedule the installation within a few days. The installation crew came early, were very professional and took the time to make sure everything was seamless for the new kitchen floor. So glad I have a new place for my flooring needs. And dad Stan really cares as well, what a great family. Best, Helene read more

I purchased flooring from another vendor recently and the overall quality was unacceptable when it arrived. I was in a huge bind and stopped by A-1 flooring to see if they could help. They had an incredible selection of flooring, but more important than that, there service was top-notch. Sam was very helpful at helping select a floor and coordinating 2 day delivery to avoid any further delays in our project. I really appreciate their level of service and would recommend them to anyone looking for good flooring at a great price with exceptional service. read more

I've used A1 two different times, once for my hard wood floors and another for my carpeting....Needless to say, I'm a satisfied customer :-) Will definitely be calling them when I re-do my bathroom floors... read more
