    extra holes drilled near every hinge and filled with non-matching filler
    Sara A.

    EDIT: Vanessa, I'll be happy to amend this when we actually get our refund for the door we already returned to you. Calling our contractor to complain about an honest review, after many unanswered calls/texts/emails for the refund, isn't a good look. --- Our contractor sent us here to look at doors. We did look at what they had but when I asked about custom options for things like wood color and lite options, the sales person just told us to look at options on the manufacturer websites. We spec'ed out our door from the manufacturer website of the one we liked from their showroom, ordered it in October. They installed a temporary blank door on our addition so we would have a secure entrance to our home. I think we had it by December, and our painters applied multiple beautiful clear coats to this beautiful cherry door, but when it came time to install it, it was discovered that FMD milled the hinges in the wrong place, even though they had the measurements for placement from installing the temporary door. There would have been stucco work and painting to the new construction to make the wrong hinge placement work, so they reordered the door. 6 weeks was their estimate, should have been mid April. End of May we finally received the replacement door after weeks and weeks of "next week" and "by the end of the week", and immediately noticed upon delivery (which was last minute, outside of business hours, lucky I was home to receive it!) there were problems. There were extra holes drilled on either side of the hinges, 6 total, filled in sloppily with non-matching filler, like meant to match oak or something, not the cherry door. Apparently it was for the hinge template? The first door we received did not have these holes... "Staining/painting you won't notice." except we aren't staining or painting this beautiful cherry door we paid a premium for! I probably could have lived with it if they fixed the filler to match, it's just on the side by the hinges and waiting another 3 months for yet another replacement door wasn't what I wanted to be doing, but they messed up milling the holes for the handle and lock, there were 1/2 inch chips of wood removed from the top layer finish of the door, beyond what our door handle would cover up. They had ruined a gorgeous $5300 door. Our contractor returned the 2nd door they messed up, and they happily took it, but then ghosted him as he tried repeatedly (call, text, email) to get the actual refund for the returned door...it's been weeks. Oh and they delivered one of our interior doors with a large hole in it, like they had dropped it or something, and refused to accept the return ("you accepted delivery, you probably damaged it!"). We had purchased an additional 6 premium interior doors from them and that was the customer service they treated us with? Bridge burned, our contractor got that interior door remade by a different distributor. Stay away from them. Their customer service is awful, their workmanship is terrible, they are flaky and unreliable with their timelines.

    I recently had to replace the flooring throughout the entire house unexpectedly. The first place that came to mind was FMD Distributor. I've purchased flooring from Homer Betelieh, the Flooring Manager, in the past and found him to be incredibly knowledgeable and honest. Because I trust him, I simply explained my goals and constraints. He quickly recommended two options from different brands and suggested the top two colors that would best suit my home. He was spot on--his top pick looked perfect when I brought the sample back, so that's the one I chose. In total, I spent about 30 minutes over two short visits, and everything was taken care of efficiently. If you're in the market for new floors, I highly recommend checking out FMD Distributor and connecting with Homer. They offer a wide selection and very competitive pricing.

    I got some Bergamo Floors, engineered woods, color is oak usini, prime grade, 7.5''. Came out beautifully - extremely happy with the quality, there is no one single knot on the woods and that is what I really like. The color also goes well with our home style after the remodel. Homer is a great sales person, was very patient answering all kinds of questions I had, and was very helpful throughout the whole process. I wanted the 9.5'' prime in the same color, but it was not available when I placed the order. Homer was kind and called the distributor in LA a few times to see whether we got lucky and could have some 9.5'' prime. Even though the 9.5'' was still not available when we installed the floor, I really appreciate Homer's help. Now our house is all done, I am hoping to return 200 sq ft of the woods, and Homer is helping to connect with the distributor and see how that can be done.

    We were excited to see their selection of treads and bannisters, and that it wasn't too long of a lead time to get our stairs. Pretty expensive though. $15,000+ for 13 hardwood stairs, bannister and a hardwood landing that's 6'x10'. We asked the demo team who installed the treads and landing about paint but they said it wasn't them. Then we had another crew install the banister and balusters, and we asked them about paint and they said, it's not them. So, not so good on communication or timeline. It took them 3 days to demo and install the treads and landing. Installing the banister and balusters took twice as long. On day one, they measured for 8 hours and installed one post. Day two measured again for 8 hrs and installed one more post. Friday they didn't show and said it was because I told them not to! Hardly, I asked if I should reschedule the cleaners to Monday and they said yes. The helper even said we'll see you tomorrow morning (Friday), and then they didn't show. Day 4 (Monday) they installed a 3' banister on the landing, two more days to install the rest of the banister and balusters. Even with 2+ days of measuring, they still drilled a hole in the wrong place on the landing and had to plug it ‍ We asked Mosen (lead?) about staining and painting and he was incredulous that we wanted the risers painted. I pointed to them and asked "Does this look done?" He did say no. I then got an estimate from Allen for an extra $300+ to paint the risers. I asked him how could they charge over $15,000 and not paint the risers? Mosen did offer to paint the risers as part of the project. The painter showed up and only stained the banister and painted the balusters. We were very confused as to why and he said he was only engaged for the banisters, not the tread. WTF? Talked to Mosen (lead?) and he said the painter wanted too much for the treads. So we had to wait until he shopped around for a cheaper painter. A couple of days later, the same painter arrived to stain the treads and paint the risers. It would've been easier for him to stain the treads and banister all at the same time and then paint! We are grateful that FMD did paint the risers, but we had to argue for it. They said they only stain, not paint. If you want them to paint, it's extra. How do you not paint? And to top it all off, I paid half at the beginning of the project and 5 minutes after the painter was finally done, Mosen sent him back to the house to collect payment. We also had two phone calls, one from Mosen and another from Allen asking for payment in those 5 minutes. We just spent a year and over $100,000 renovating our house and NO ONE demanded the final payment 5 minutes after they were done. We did get exactly want we wanted but it took much longer than we expected, we had to argue for what we wanted, and had little communication about timeline and when to expect the next team. Of all the contractors we engaged this last year, FMD was the most exasperating and frustrating to deal with. I'd definitely shop around if you're looking for flooring or stairs.

    When it was time to replace our laminate floors and the carpeting on our stairs, hallway, and…read morebedrooms, we compared options at Home Depot and several local carpet stores. A measuring technician came out, took all the dimensions, and directed us to the 1020 W. San Carlos location to review their full carpet selection. At the store, we explained what we were looking for, compared carpet features and pricing, and worked with Dominic--who was very accommodating. His total project cost was competitive with the other quotes we received. We also wanted new baseboards that would match our freshly painted walls and trim. Dominic arranged to have the primed (but unpainted) 16' wood baseboards delivered ahead of installation, giving us time to paint everything before the carpet went in. Tip Our new carpet and pad are very soft and plush--great underfoot, especially on the stairs. Because the new flooring sits higher than the original laminate, our bedroom doors needed to be trimmed by about half an inch. We cut the doors ourselves, but it's worth asking whether your installer can include that as part of the project. Pros * Dominic is a true carpeting professional--he anticipated our needs and offered thoughtful guidance throughout the process. * Both the wood and carpet installation teams did solid, quality work. Cons * Some door trim was scuffed as the installers maneuvered large carpet rolls through our narrow hallway and doorways, so a bit of repainting was needed afterward.

    I'm always excited when I find a good deal so decided to look at Off Price based on suggestion by…read moremy neighbor. Dominic gives EXCELLENT customer service and depending on your project, great value. He buys short ends from American carpet manufacturers at terrific prices. I needed carpet for 2 bedrooms as the rest of house is hardwood. I got great quality, fully pet stain resistant, carpet for an unexpectedly low price. His team will even move furniture for a LOW price to make it easier on you. The shop on San Carlos isn't much to look at but you'll get awesome help and samples sent to your home. I don't think you can beat this place unless you need continuous carpet for several rooms. Even then, I'd still investigate what Dominic can do for you.
