    We bought a 14 year old, 2000 sq. foot, 2 story house in Bedford VA in July. We shopped for flooring in PA before we moved so as soon as we closed on the house, we went to LL in Lynchburg, VA and ordered flooring. Watson Flooring Installations, who is partnered with LL, sent someone to measure the house. The total came to just over $25,000 to rip up the carpet & linoleum and install bamboo hardwood floors throughout nearly the entire house, tile the entry in the kitchen, the laundry room and the master bathroom, and of course do the stairs in bamboo. The stairs accounted for right around $5100 for parts & labor. The only rooms not touched were the upstairs bathroom and laundry room. Since the stairs were custom pieces, there was a 3 week lead time. In that time our furniture was delivered (something we told the gentleman that measured the house). The man who measured the house said they'd be in and out in 3 days. Installation was scheduled, the installers (4 of them) showed up at 10ish in the morning on a Friday. After the first day, the installers didn't even bother to knock on the door. They just walked into my house unannounced. They came back on Saturday, got the living room floor mostly in, and both upstairs bedrooms half done....nothing finished. When they left, we cleaned up and secured their tools, fenced in the stuff on the front porch so we could let the dogs stretch their legs. Sunday they were off. The next week they didn't finish anything completely. There were 2 nights we weren't even sure where we were going to sleep. Every bed in the house (3 bedrooms) was torn apart, there was furniture and tools stacked up in the only bathroom they weren't working on, every night when they left, they left tools, razor blades, brads and garbage all over the house. It was a dangerous, awful experience. And the stairs still weren't done. After 2 weeks of this...and the crew shrinking to 2 guys, they worked on the stairs. See pictures below. They didn't put a skirt board up, the newel post was installed crooked, the spindles dangled in thin air off the stair treads. They tried to fill it in with wood putty, they left 2 spindles at the top unattached...literally just hanging. And when questioned, we were told the wood was very hard...and they left it all that way! The installers left waste material with nails sticking out of it, open bags of mastic, and power tools all over my porch...and left, for over 2 weeks without finishing the job. I called Lumber Liquidators and complained. Watson had another contractor come to inspect the stairs and agreed to re-do the stairs and replace the spindles which were now ruined. THEN they sent a 2nd person (the man who had originally measured the house) to inspect AGAIN. Then they argued internally about who was going to pick up the tab on the new custom pieces for a MONTH!! Yes, they fought for a month before they ordered anything...and then a 3 week lead time. So we didn't have a safe handrail or stairs worth looking at for 2 months. In the meantime, the Lynchburg store manager calls and asks me to sign off on the actually flooring portion of the installation so she can get it off her books. Anything over 90 days on the books gets questioned and SHE didn't want to deal with it any longer. I told her I was in no rush to be forgotten, or to expedite payment. The next contractor shows up, rips out every tread and riser, scrapes all the glue off, installs the new stairs, puts nails in the middle of several treads, the overhang in front of each step is nearly an inch longer than code allows, the stairs are crooked, the risers aren't straight, again, no skirt board, there's glue sticking out between treads and risers, then the newel post is installed crooked! One of the guys ran to Lowes to go buy spindles, and bought exactly HALF of the spindles he'd need to finish the job. At this point, Watson's regional sales director, Scott Hickman, tells me that code requires them to nail treads to the stringers, which was an outright lie. These jerks left me with no railing to speak of for more than 2 months!! And he wants to talk code with me? So LL gets yet another phone call, this time I ask for a $5000 refund. They agree to issue a refund as soon as I sign a letter relieving them of any responsibility. This was an absolute NIGHTMARE. Here's where things break down. You buy flooring and installation from LL, who contracts out the installation to Watson, who in turn subs it out to someone else, so the contractors that show up at your house don't answer to you....they answer to Watson. We are now 3 months into the installation process. The $5000 refund cleared my bank account this morning, and I've hired a local finish carpenter to re-do the stairs.

    Natural Acacia flooring! Bought at Lynchburg Lumber Liquidators from their amazing team. Could not have done it without their expertise!

    I used to really like them a lot. I thought the owners were really sweet, until recently, they…read morereturned my consigned stuff back to me. All I did was asked a valid question as to why I did not get 50% of $149.98, which is what my necklace was listed for. Instead, I got $67.49, which was 50% of $134.98. I would have expected $74.99. I was told by the lady who works there that sometimes the owner gives a special discount to regular customers. I was fine with her answer and that should have been the end of that The next day, I got a call from the owner telling me that he was told that I was upset when I called to ask about the difference. I emphasized to him that I was not upset. I was only wondering about the difference. He explained to me just like what the lady said to me the day before. He also said that that was on him giving that kind of discount to his customer. He then said that they seem to always be doing something wrong by me and that they should return my stuff to me. I felt like I was being punished for having asked a valid question. When I first started the consignment with them, they had lost a couple of my stuff, and they compensated me for them, which was well and good. They even said that they hoped that I was going to continue consigning with them. So, we moved on. Back in July, I noticed that a storage box that I had dropped off for consignment was no where to be seen, this box would have been hard to miss. It was not there but was still showing as available in my 'available' list. I brought it up with them on the day they returned my stuff to me, and the owner said that I dropped it off on 7/10, and it was sold and paid out within a couple of weeks, I think. Anyway, if it was paid out, it was not to me. The pay out must have accidentally gone to someone else. I had also brought up with the owner, when we talked on the phone, that I seemed to have been missing a necklace. I brought 4 necklaces, and only 3 were accounted for. When I got back from my vacation to pick up my stuff, somehow the missing necklace has appeared. I did not bother to ask where it was since they were already returning my stuff. I did not want nor expect to be banned from consigning. All I did was asked a valid question. I didn't think it was fair that they did that to me. I really enjoyed shopping at their store. I think that it should have been up to me to make that decision to discontinue doing business with them if I thought they weren't doing right by me. It is really sad and unfortunate this happened. Now it just really makes me sad to drive by there and not go any more.

    What a wonderful place to shop and such great owners to do business with!! My husband and I LOVE…read moreCHRISTMAS SHOPPING THERE, the whole year in preparation for Christmas , we like the interaction when you go in there!!
