This is a review really for the small business that Carolina Wholesale recommended to me for…read moreinstalling the hardwood floors that I recently purchased from Carolina Wholesale. The two owners of this business, Carolina Quality Floors, do not have a website so I couldn't publish a review for them...so figured I'd go through Carolina Wholesale to do it. As far as Carolina Wholesale, I was very pleased with the rapid delivery of the hand scraped oak hardwood I ordered. I asked them for suggestions on someone to install it and they gave me Dan Allen's phone number. Dan and his partner, Jason Cass, own Carolina Quality Floors (not to be confused with Carolina Quality Flooring which apparently is another business in the area). We wanted to replace the terrible laminate that I had put in over Oak hardwood six years ago (biggest mistake I've ever made). Also wanted to replace the carpeting in our living room and master bedroom. I called Dan and he said Jason would stop out that day to measure the rooms. Jason was there within four hours, measured the house, gave me an estimate which was very competitive. Dan confirmed Jason's estimate the following morning and I ordered the wood on Tuesday afternoon. Dan said they could start the job the following week so as soon as the wood came in they picked it up and brought it out to the house. He checked the humidity of the flooring to see if it was within specs for installing the wood and it wouldn't have to wait a day or so to acclimate to the climate. Humidity was within 1%, so everything looked good. His crew started the job on Tuesday mid-morning. They worked room by room, moving the furniture, ripping out the old laminate and had to remove a duraboard that Lowes had put in (rather than pulling out the nails, Lowes just put a thin board over the previous subfloor - not good). They finished the whole job Friday afternoon. 3 1/2 days to do our living room, dining room, sitting room, hallways, bathroom and master bedroom. They moved all the furniture, put it back in place, installed the cover moulding and stained to match the floor where necessary. We have white moulding in most of the house but around the fireplace and entrance to the kitchen there is a reduction "T' type moulding that goes into our tiled kitchen. We've had a lot of remodels and small business jobs since moving here 13 years ago and this is the best crew we've seen. They arrived on time, were very friendly and each of the workers had a specific job...cutting, laying and hammering the hardwood in place, nailing the hardwood down, and removing debris. They finished our complete lower level in 2 1/2 days. They cleaned up after each day before leaving. Can't complain at all. If you are looking for hardwood or tile I highly recommend these guys.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! I hired Floor Pro to perform a…read moredeep cleaning on my hardwood floors. The service was contracted with the understanding that the work would involve only a steam/deep cleaning and no resurfacing or sanding. The agreed-upon price for this service was $450, which I considered reasonable given the scope of the job. Unfortunately, the quality of the work was severely deficient. Upon completion, the floors appeared incomplete, with visible damage in multiple areas. Specifically, the protective coating was stripped away in patches, and there are at least four sections where the wood itself has been excessively abraded or sanded, resulting in exposed flakes, splinters, and uneven surfaces. In contrast, other portions of the floor showed no evidence of having been cleaned at all. I contacted Floor Pro to inspect the damage and requested a resolution. In response, they proposed to repair the issues by buffing and sealing the entire downstairs floor at a discounted rate of $6,200. This offer raises serious concerns about their business practices, as it appears to escalate a simple cleaning job into a far more extensive and costly repair. I cannot help but question whether the initial damage was intentional, designed to coerce customers into additional, higher-priced services. This experience has left me with damaged floors and a significant loss of trust in the company. I am available to provide any additional details, including photos of the damage, upon request.

I submitted pictures, videos and text messages from friends and cleaners who were alarmed at the performance of this carpet at our vacation home.

As if my videos and pictures weren't proof enough. They gave me the run around for months, not returning phone calls and continuing to tell me they were in discussion with their rep. It's disappointing when businesses don't choose to stand behind their product and choose to do the RIGHT thing.
