We were interested in replacing the sixteen-year-old carpeting on the stairs from the living room…read moreto the second floor. While we did explore searching for samples at several locations, the final decision was made to purchase from Ballston Carpet and Tile because we had narrowed down our possible choices to three - all of which were sold by BC&T. We were very pleased with Craig who assisted my wife in understanding the differences in the fabrics, their wearability, the anticipated delivery times, and who tolerated our slow decision making and the amount of time we held samples at home trying to make a final decision. Craig also kept us apprised of the manufacture's production schedule. The fellow who came to the house to determine the measurements was not only friendly, but also very knowledgeable and willing to share his knowledge regarding proper installation methods and wear. With his input we were able to arrange to include two scatter rugs from the same bolt of carpet to be ordered. Finally, the installer, Justin, was friendly, and did a very professional job of removing the old carpeting and installing the new carpeting. We are very happy that we chose Ballston Carpet and Tile to do this project and have no reservations with recommending them to others.

I got my samples quickly, and from sample to custom cut to installation was only a few weeks, maybe less. I haven't had the best luck with home improvement people but I would 100% use these guys again.

My wife and I are looking for new flooring for our kitchen. We have been to some of the large big…read morebox stores and also looked online, but it can be an overwhelming and frustrating experience. Sometimes we want to ask questions but finding an employee was difficult, and other times we just want to be left alone to look around. This place offered both, along with many selections of different types of flooring. Yes, it is a warehouse inside so some things seemed jumbled around. But, the salesperson (Paul) was extremely helpful in explaining to us some of the options available and differences in product lines. We haven't bought anything yet (and they work on commission) but he seemed happy to just help us out whether we made a purchase or not. Once we know for sure what we want, we likely will be coming back here.

Unlike other area carpet stores, the cost is straightforward-no add ons and additional expenses. The installers were professional,prompt and thorough, unlike a recent carpet purchase from Home Depot.I also had difficulty reaching someone on the phone and having calls returned, but this was my only negative interaction. I think it's because they are a small family owned business. I was happy to keep my business in the community and work with knowledgeable, professional people.

We needed to have a kitchen remodeled (gutted) after moving into our 36 year old home. Upon high recommendations of two relatives, we decided to use Zarrillo. Dawn worked with us developing several designs until the perfect one was attained. She is a good listener and capably responded to our requests by email or in person promptly. She and Terry came to our home to finalize the building project. They are both professional, friendly and eager to make our dream kitchen come true. They recommended three contractors, and we selected Dave Mirabile who was fantastic, experienced, and skilled! He was a pleasure to work with. A master carpenter. -- ex. Look at the cove molding above the cabinets in the photos. The office/showroom is top notch from its layout with samples of the custom cabinets and stock choices to samples of their creative ideas. We selected custom cabinets in real Cherry wood and finish. The custom features exceeded our high expectations. Terry and his team built incredible cabinets -- both beautiful and functional. We selected Bertazzoni appliances made in Italy from Marcellas Appliance. We are very pleased with the quality and appearance of the appliances! Conclusion: We love a new, beautiful, and functional kitchen! I love to cook and this is my happy place. Much thanks the Terry and Dawn Zarrillo & team. We highly recommend them.

One of the oldest Iranian rugs, which was used in our foyer, came back, completely unusable with huge ripples in it that would not lay flat. Upon asking Mr. Jafri to take it back and stretch it and make it usable again, it took another six months, and still was not flat. I told him that we would be putting a claim in his insurance for the value of the rug and he claimed that this time he would make it better After another five months, it came back. It was better, but it's still not flat. He claimed he had to send it somewhere overseas to get it stretched . the rug is now a tripping hazard. Jafri offered no refund or compensation even after we spent $25k with him. I do not recommend this company

Words can not describe how thrilled I am to have found these experts on cleaning rugs. I had three…read moreold, filthy braided and an old old {like at lest 75 years old} fine but filthy wool Oriental rug that I had to make the decision to either pitch, or find a miracle worker. Seeing that float tanks were the way to clean these rugs, I finally found Jafri Rugs in Albany, about two hours away. The picked up my rugs, did their magic, and the suggested repairs of new side binding and fringe {the fringe on my 75 year old Oriental was like a bad comb-over, with some of the weaving coming apart} were worth it, the Oriental is luxurious and soft and gorgeous. I am seeing colors in it I never saw before. After getting them back and walking on them with bare feet - the wool braided rugs are SO soft and my feet love them. Even the dog has ceased to jump on the couch and now lies on the braided rug. Not scratchy and dried like how they were when I received them. I swear each rug was ten pounds lighter. I am indebted forever for these experts saving my grandmother's and mother's hand braided and cherished rugs. Even though I was far away, they picked them up and dropped them off. I did have to wait a bit, but realistically I had sat on these things for years trying to find a solution, so why get cranky asking someone for a two week turnaround? Besides, I had already tried getting one of the rungs cleaned by an "antique rug cleaners" expert and I still had dirty heavy scratchy rugs. It was the holidays and they wanted to make the trip back when they had a few more clients up my way. This made sense, and it was worth the wait. Don't hesitate calling them, forget the cost, fall in love with your treasured family rugs and consider the cost as you are working with rug artisans. Pay their worth and stop thinking in Walmart Rug mode. Recycle, and Re-use. Stop throwing good rugs away. An aside, Humza and the staff who picked up and delivered the rugs are pros at making you feel like you are their favorite customer, genuinely. Customer Service was beyond expectations wonderful. Thanks for giving me back my cherished family heirlooms, better than how I received them. Beautiful and talented work, they are the poets of fine rugs.
