We spent $5,000 on carpet for both the upstairs and downstairs our our 3 level home. The living…read moreroom had rolls that were noticeable as soon as I got home from work. The installers assured my husband "it will smooth itself out. Just give it a few months." We're a year later and my living room carpet is WORSE than the first day of install. Update: we called the store and they returned to our home to take corrective action. I appreciate that they were responsive when we complained, and made arrangements to correct the situation. The installer readjusted and re-stretched the carpet so that all of the large "tents" or peaks in the room have been laid flat again. I'm cautiously optimistic that the carpet will remain flat or that the store will return again to make it right should they issue recur. Updated the starred portion of the review to reflect the store's responsive manner once they understood the gravity of the concern. Will update the review further

I hired this company to refinish my hardwood floors. The job should have took about a week…read more Unfortunately, it took several weeks mostly due to the company's own mistakes. This added time caused me to have to get a hotel for a week. I found the owner Max to be unprofessional. The longer the job took to complete the more his professionalism decreased it seemed. A few examples that I find demonstrate his unprofessionalism were his lying and this belief that he could have charged me for the time it took him to fix his mistakes. I also found his threat of suing me and putting a lien on my home very unprofessional, when I had never once said he was not getting final payment. It was never brought up because the final walk through kept getting postponed because of their mistakes. The day I confronted him on him lying was when he ended the job and claimed it was complete and said if he didn't get his final payment he would sue me and put a lien on my house. He was paid the final payment when he came back to my home and fixed my sink (they put brushes with oil poly in my sink, which caused poly to be stuck to my stainless steal sink). The end result of the hardwood floors I would say is average. The sanding and staining for the most part look good with the exception of the stairs and closet. The finish however has hard bumps, hairs, craters, and in some spots the poly appears to separating between the boards. It gives a white line look, which is noticeable since l opted for a dark stain. My closet was poly shaded, because the stain wasn't right. My stairs are much darker than the rest of the floor despite the treads being the same type of wood as the rest of the floor. I also don't care for the oil poly he chose to use (Bona woodline). I wish I would have pushed for duraseal premium (fabulon).

As a property manager, I have been dealing with many different contractors for a decade. When it…read morecame time to refurbish and remodel my own home about a year-and-a-half ago, I chose YBC State College for much of the work. They were to replace my wall-to-wall carpets on one hallway, on two flights of stairs, and in three bedrooms. Two different carpets were ordered, but they installed the wrong one in one of the three bedrooms, so it does not match the rest of that floor of the house. They partially remodeled my master bathroom, and were to replace the floor with a new waterproof subfloor, topped with a new wood-like vinyl floor. Unfortunately they forgot to put in the waterproof subfloor. They partially remodeled another full bathroom in my house by replacing the shower stall with a new panelized multi-part one. The installer showed up and told me on the day that he started the installation that he had NEVER installed one before. I should have stopped him right then and there but I didn't. He completed the installation, but did it all wrong and the shower stall did not work correctly. After sending YBC a registered letter citing their failure to fulfill their performance contract, they sent a different installer to rebuild the shower stall. When he showed up he told me that he had NEVER installed one before either. It still never worked correctly after that rebuild. The manufacturer told me that it was installed incorrectly. I complained to YBC again, but I was told by a State College employee that our problems were caused by our son who used the shower, with him being too tall. (Of course, this YBC employee, who is much taller than our son, said he had the exact same shower in his own home, and that it worked perfectly.) Now recently one of the panels popped out of the shower enclosure, rendering it unusable. When I contacted the YBC employee, he told me that they would have to order a "repair kit" from the manufacturer, and then be charged for the time and labor it would take to rebuild the shower a third time. So I contacted the manufacturer a week or two later who told me that they do not offer any repair kit for this shower, and that none had been order by YBC at any rate. I sent a very detailed analysis of this entire experience to my local YBC employee, to the State College store manager, and to the President of YBC. I received no reply from any of them. In short, I do not recommend YBC to anyone for any purpose or need whatsoever. And I certainly do give them the worst possible rating.

They were able to fill the remaining items that we needed and have them delivered to our house within 28 hours from placing the order. The staff was knowledgeable, professional and courteous. One of the items we needed was out of stock and unlike the big box store which simply cancels your order without telling you they offered us the next length up. That may not seem like a big thing but after 2.5 weeks of getting screwed around it felt amazing. It was really nice to deal with a company that actually cares and has employees that are capable of doing there jobs. Please consider shopping with this company. They are locally owned and have earned my respect and future business.
