Tompkins Flooring vs. Empire Today Empire Today = Hassle and High-Pressure Sales I scheduled an in-home appointment with Empire Today to get a quote for replacing carpet in a single room. This was a small, straightforward job, but the visit took far longer than necessary and felt driven by sales process rather than efficiency. Instead of focusing on measuring the room and preparing a quote, the salesperson spent a significant amount of time talking and redirecting the conversation. After repeatedly asking for pricing, I was eventually shown a single total on his tablet. When I asked for a printed quote or an emailed copy, the salesperson said their system does not generate written quotes at all. He explained that even if he had internet access, quotes could only be presented in person and must be signed immediately. He also stated that if I did not accept the quote on the spot, it would no longer be valid and the only way to move forward would be for him to return to my home and repeat the entire process. The quote shown had no itemization or breakdown. There was limited detail on carpet type, padding, labor, or related items, and no documentation I could review, compare, or keep. The expectation was to agree to a single number immediately, without time to evaluate options or pricing. Given the lack of transparency and the pressure to make an on-the-spot decision, I politely ended the appointment. Tompkins Flooring = Efficient, Transparent, and Straightforward After that experience, I stopped in at Tompkins Flooring and worked with Chris. The difference was immediate. For the same simple job, the entire process took about five minutes. Chris was easy to work with, asked the right questions, and provided a clear quote without needing to come into my home. The quote included details on carpet, padding, and installation, and was provided in written form for review. Pricing from Tompkins was slightly lower than Empire Today, but the product was better. Both the carpet and padding options were higher quality, and the installation schedule was more flexible. There was no pressure to commit immediately, just clear information that made it easy to decide. The installation is scheduled for next week, and based on how smooth and professional the process has been so far, I'm guessing it will go smoothly. I'll update this review (if needed) after the work is completed. Overall, the contrast between the two companies was clear. One relied on urgency and limited information, while the other focused on transparency, efficiency, and respecting the customer's time. read more

Tompkins did a great job on our recarpeting. Someone came out right away to measure and advise, then we went over to look at their selection of carpets (which is vast). Scheduling was quick and even though I had to reschedule twice, they were very accommodating. Our house is not huge but we do have 3 bedrooms and stairs. I was told that it would take 2-3 days but it actually took a day and a half! They also did a nice job of disassembling and reassembling our bed frames, etc. I would highly recommend them! read more

Well, that was a bust. Everywhere says that they are open in the Laguna Niguel store on Sunday starting at noon here I am at 12:20 on a Sunday sitting in the parking lot and it doesn't look like they're opening. Called the store and it said they're closed. Not a good sign you guys! read more

We used them for the installation and purchase of our flooring, master bathroom tile, and counter tops. Julio is very knowledgeable about the products. He got us a quote right away. There was a slight delay on our flooring installation bc of a warehouse problem, they dropped our floor and it got damaged. Other than that all went well and smooth. read more

I just got Luxury Vinyl Flooring in my little condo here in San Juan, and I couldn't be happier. I walked into Tomkins on a whim (I've been wanting to do my floors for 13 years; just couldn't figure out how), where Gary was so wonderfully "Jersey" (?) and confident. He came out lugging a bunch of sample boards and let me keep them a few days and walk all over them. I picked the one I liked first off in the showroom! But it's nice to be sure. Then he did the measuring, got me a great quote, and it was easy. Victor & Alex came to install. They were efficient, tidy and easy to work with. I had a billion questions and kept calling Courtney. I'm afraid I was "THAT customer." But he was kind and patient and wonderful. And when I didn't like the way something looked... they came right out and fixed it. Their dime. Even when it was my change of mind. If you're like me, and have a hard time making up your mind, trusting people to do stuff right, and have loads of questions... Use Tomkins. They treated me and my little 1,000 square foot job like I had a McMansion. I can't recommend them highly enough. I love my floors, and the whole experience of getting them installed was far easier than I had anticipated! read more

We live in Laguna Niguel and needed new flooring for 3,500 sq ft home. I visited about 7 flooring places. By far Tompkins felt the best. Family owned, long time staff, knowledgeable and kind. Megan was easy to work with, she is very responsive. They let me bring home a ton of samples and them as long as I needed to figure out which sample worked. It took awhile figuring things out, and they were so patient, and always professional. They installed beautiful luxury vinyl upstairs and downstairs. And a carpet runner up our stairs which looks amazing!!!! It has a pattern. You can count on them 100%. They treat you like family and will advocate for you if needed on anything they install/carry. So worth working with a business that has honorable values. read more

Everything can be improved. 1)Salesperson promised install before July 22 but the scheduler called 1 week later saying the earliest date would be Aug 6. 2)Somehow I wasn't put on the schedule and was then told the earliest would be Aug 18. 3)They moved the install up to today and the installers come but said they can't do the job because my condo is on the second floor and they didn't know so don't have the right concrete. They quoted a good price but don't do the work. Definitely would never recommend Tompkins. read more

After 7 years, our stairs were filthy, and cleaning didn't help. But the rest of the house was fine. We tried to match our existing Berber carpeting, but that was impossible. We settled on a pattern, and it was the perfect solution. Julio Gonzalez at Tompkins Laguna Niguel was great to work with. Marco the installer did the best job! My recommendation is to skip the other stores, and head to Tompkins. Thank you!! read more

Tompkins Flooring - Flooring Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

I love this team! They helped us in our hour of need when we needed flooring due to a leak we had. The entire staff was so helpful with guiding us as to what flooring to choose. Julio and his team were not only professional but the team did a superb job with the installment. I would completely recommend them to anyone who needs good flooring done professional and done correctly. They helped up to love our home more than ever! read more

Tompkins Flooring - Luxury Vinyl flooring - Flooring Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

Excellent selection in the show room, competitive pricing, prompt installation, and terrific craftsmanship...why go anywhere else?! We had a slab leak and our old laminate floor needed replacement. Tompkins made the process of selecting a new flooring material and the installation very easy for us. We had shopped around and had received quotes for flooring plus installation elsewhere. Tompkins was able to beat those prices and their selection was far better than other stores we looked at. Julio was far from pushy or salesy...he listened to what we wanted, offered his professional opinions, and made the installation happen right in our preferred timeframe. The installation process was terrific as well. The guys showed up when they said they would and did quality work. I do a fair amount of building myself and I was very impressed in the quality of their work. Despite portions of walls not being square, nothing was installed out of place or misaligned. Also, we asked the installers to use our key in a lockbox. They secured the home when they left and left everything just as we had requested. We will no doubt be repeat customers. I would highly recommend checking out Tompkins if you want a pain free experience while receiving very competitive prices and a quality job. read more

Tompkins Flooring - Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring installed by Tompkins Flooring - Flooring Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

Just had vinyl installed in our Master Bath and carpet in the bedrooms and had a great experience with Tompkins. Their salesperson, Cheri went above and beyond for us throughout the experience. She was patient, helpful and communicated with us every step. She even came over to measure my house on her day off! The installers were professional and courteous and did a terrific job. read more

Cherie and the team at Tompkins flooring are true professionals. They always met their timetables for the order, arrival and installation of our carpet and LVP flooring. Their team was professional and efficient and they did a immaculate job in our home. We are very happy with our carpet and flooring purchase from the experts at Tompkins. Cherie and her team are the best!! read more

In the plus column, great variety of flooring, fair prices, communicative, easier to deal with than the big flooring stores, one stop shopping, and flexible scheduling. Overall, I am happy with the floor style and color. In the minus column, once I fully paid, my messages were not returned. The installers scratched a brand new bathtub as they put the toilet in the tub to do the flooring in the bathroom, they also scratched up baseboards, and the installation in the bathroom has a gap on each side adjacent to the bathtub (no moulding, no caulking, and not even a little grout). I even went to the store to inquire, and was told that I can put caulking in the gaps. I was also told that I needed to call back. Why wouldn't the installers fill in the gaps? The gaps are not really nice to look at. And why do I have to call back? I already had left several messages. Most of the scratches I was able to wipe away with a Mr. Clean eraser, but there are still a couple of chips on the tub. I did expect a more from a family run business. read more

Supplied and installed our 2,600 sq ft cabin in Lake Arrowhead with beautiful engineered 9" hardwood planking. the crew was meticulous and completed the project in 5 days. artistically installed and Julio managing the project was perfection. thank you's go out to the entire crew strongly recommend this team for great pricing and staying on the job till complete. my wife is smiling read more

We were so glad to have found Tompkins. Our floors look amazing!!! We probably went to over 20 different flooring places up and down Orange County and kept finding ourselves back here. The prices are very comparable and often times more affordable than others. Julio and his team were great. They did everything they said they were going to do...showed up on time, finished on time, no bullshit, just amazing work. Super high quality work at that. We actually have more projects so will be going back very soon. read more

Shoutout to the staff at Tompkins flooring in Laguna Niguel! My LVP floors are just beautiful!! I commend everyone I came in contact with!! Megan, Courtney, Rick, Manuel and his brother. Everyone was a perfectionist, from the planning to the installation. Manuel and his brother were always on time and had a lot of pride in their work. They were so nice and accommodating! I never worried about a thing, they took care of me!! I highly recommend Tompkins! read more

We had a great experience with Tompkins. I'd recommend them to friends and will return as a customer. Bobbi helped me through the whole process and I couldn't ask for more. The install was fast, professional, and the product was installed right the first time. Pricing was right, install was excellent, and customer service was consistently good. It was an all around win. Two thumbs up read more

We were actually recommended to Tompkins by a sales associate at a big named flooring store. I am so glad that we were. Megan was so helpful and professional to work with. The crew that did our floors worked so efficiently and were all so kind. They were very reasonably priced too! I definitely recommend them!! read more

I have driven by Tompkins Flooring in Laguna Niguel for years. When I needed new carpet, I have to admit they did not come to mind immediately. I eventually went based on the recommendation of a personal friend who is also an interior designer. I worked with Cheri who was incredibly knowledgeable and followed up on each action item and question in the time committed. She worked hard to help us expedite installation and the installation team was equally professional. I would definitely start with Tompkins in the future. read more

On a Monday I need a carpet sample and was told they would have it by Friday of that week. Returned on Friday and there was NO sample. Was told they would have it on Tuesday of the following week so I left my phone number and asked them to call me when it came in. They called and said it was in. I went to the store and NO the sample was NOT in, the rep. had sent the wrong pieces. At this I said this is NO way to run a business and asked to speak with the owner. I had to ask 3x's for his name and all I got was Jim. I told Jim he had just lost himself $5k of business and he told me he didn't care and told to leave or he would call 911. If you want to treated like dirt shop there. If you don't, be like me and google "the best flooring companies in So.OC which Tompkins IS NOT. read more

Tompkins Flooring is our hero!!! Thank you! Tompkins truly helped us out by being incredible flooring professionals!!! I wish we'd gone there in the first place, instead of a non-specialty store. Julian communicated very well from the time he first answered the phone, when I came to buy, when my carpet color choice wasn't available (on such short notice) and I had to choose again, etc. On the day of installation, he showed up on time, with the team of Pancho and Samuel. They did exactly what they were supposed to do at a very rapid pace, called me when I needed to clarify something and got the job done, very well in one day!!! Tompkins Flooring Laguna Niguel is definitely who I would recommend to anyone who asks me! If I'd only gone to Tompkins, I would have saved myself a lot of stress and frustration, and we'd still be on schedule. We did it right the second time. We ended up purchasing even better quality carpet and pad, that was available locally and quickly, to try and get back on schedule I talked with Julian & the two other members of the nice sales team on Monday, and the gorgeous carpet of our choice was very professionally installed within days! Julian actually called me to wait a day to make sure it would be done by one of the best install teams! Julian supervised and helped protect the other flooring downstairs. We went over some quick issues regarding the pattern and blending. Before I knew it, the guys had already moved the 2 pieces of furniture and removed all the carpet and padding from upstairs in minutes. Julian, Julio, the manager and the owner all wanted to make it right for us, and they certainly did! I had just had a horrible experience with another company that day. A sub "non-professional" installer, showed up late and alone!!!, to do all our carpet work in one day, as promised. That guy also didn't care if he damaged any of the recently repaired and newly painted walls, and if he did, he wouldn't pay. Our whole renovation schedule had been thrown off by a minimum of a week due to that sub's poor decision-making to come by himself! Other pros told me there was no way he could have done our whole upstairs and staircase carpet removal and installation in one day as the carpet company had promised. I had waited my turn and deserved proper attention to the task. I even gave the installer 24 hours to make it right, but that didn't happen. We were livid. I'm so glad I got a full refund and went to Tompkins Flooring! Thank you again for definitely making it right for us!!! read more

Just had Tompkins Flooring install new carpeting in Master Bedroom and luxury vinyl plank in Master Bath. The crew did a great job with the installation of both products and furniture removal/replacement. Even our plumber offered compliments on the installation of the LVP where a new toilet was to be installed. It was a pleasure working with Cherie at the Laguna Niguel location; she has since moved to their Irvine showroom. It was our first experience with Tompkins Flooring and we recommend them without reservation. read more

I can't say enough about Tompkins Flooring and Julio! I am such a happy customer! We just bought a house and Julio has been soo helpful in every way. Not only does he responds fast to my text/emails/calls, but he shows on time to our appointments and most important, he wears a mask and keeps his distance. Julio has helped us throught the process of fixing our house. From guiding us on what material to buy, helping with the design (which I totally love from what I had in mind) etc. I cannot wait to post pictures of my home to show you what Julio and Tompkins Flooring did for us. read more

I got several quotes from other businesses, and Thompkins, in Laguna Niguel, was able to give me the best price and deliver it 2 weeks quicker than all the others. Julio G. was the representative that helped me. Professional and fast with response to requests. I would buy from them again. read more

I've been meaning to write this review for awhile now, because my wife and I had a very different experience from everyone else. Kathy helped us choose some laminate flooring, and she was terrific. I would have no problem referring people to her had the actual installation been done correctly and in a professional manner. For starters, when Tim says he'll arrive at the home between 9-10am, and I take time off from work to be home, I expect him to arrive close to that window (not necessarily in the window, because contractors are known for being late). When I call around 10:30am and he tells me he's just finishing a job and will be to my place in another 30 minutes or so, I'm trusting so I believe him. When he doesn't show up until closer to 2pm, well that's when my blood starts to boil. I also lose respect for any contractor who defers to my judgment on how to do their job, particularly when I'm not a professional floor installer. So, Tim, when you tell me the two methods for leveling out the sub-floor before installing the laminate, and ask me which I would prefer you to do... well, I would prefer you to have done the one that actually works... so that we don't have so many loose boards and soft spots that we have to call you out again to pick up the boards, try to level out the floor again, etc. FYI, you still didn't fix the problem, we just got tired of dealing with you. I hope this review seems harsh... really. Because no matter how good Tompkins' pricing was, and how fabulous Kathy was, I would never go back to them because the installation process was so poor. Sorry guys. read more

We just bought a new townhouse and our builder gave us options to either upgrade flooring through their design center or to rip and remove the "included" flooring. With that said, our builder wanted $30K for carpet and tile, about 1750 sqft. I wrote down the brand and style of the stuff we picked out and took it to Julio at Tompkins, we got it done for $16K for the same exact stuff. Our builder pushed closing by 30 days; I had Tompkins flooring ready to go and had to tell them to delay the project because of this. Julio was completely cool with it and super flexible. My lease at my apt was ending on the 23rd of January and my closing was on the 20th. Julio was able to get literally 6-7 guys in to rip out all the flooring and start work on the new flooring. These guys are bad ass and work hella quick. The quality of work was amazing and they finished the entire home in about 6 days. Julio supervised the job everyday, make sure the quality was top notch (which it was). Really thankful for these guys, totally a Tompkins customer for life. read more

I edited this review because Tompkins came out and rectified the mistakes that they made. They patched the hole in the drywall in the bathroom and smoothed out the tile. They also installed the wood pieces that go in between each room. The floors look nice so I upgraded it to 3-stars. read more

My husband and I walked into Tompkins for the first time today in search of carpet, and both Megan and Cheri were super kind and helpful. They gave us their time and excellent customer service, and we are very grateful. This location also has a beautiful selection of all types of flooring, and we highly recommend it. read more

Thank goodness we found Tompkins Flooring. We had found a carpet sample at one of the big box stores nearby and when we finally got a quote (after MANY long delays) it was way more than expected and would have taken a lot longer than advertised to get it installed. We decided to just walk away and that's when we found Tompkins. We walked in and Julio greeted us immediately and the rest was smooth sailing! We saved SO much money working with Julio. I can't thank them enough. If you're considering any changes to your flooring, just pop by this place for a fantastic sales experience. Thanks Julio!! read more

We had a great experience. Jim was very knowledgeable, helpful and patient as we had to find a quick solution to replacing our wood flooring due to water damage. Jim helped to answer all our questions, made suggestions and gave us options to consider. The install went smoothly, Alex addressed a few issues in a very courteous and expedient way and always kept us informed of progress, issues or questions about dealing with an issue and treated our home very thoughtfully. We will use them again! read more

Last week I went to Tompkins Flooring in Laguna Niguel and had the best shopping experience for flooring. The sales associate Megan Hill was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the product. I came in looking for flooring for my bedrooms and she helped me with the design and picking out product that would be durable for these areas of my home. She helped me through the whole process and was very patient with me. The pricing was great and the service was superb! I would strongly recommend Tompkins flooring to everyone!! read more

I cannot say enough about how helpful, knowledgeable and sweet Megan is at Tompkins flooring!!!! My son and I came in multiple times with multiple requests and she graciously helped us each time... she always knew just what product to suggest (and was always right on!!) AND she always tried to make it a fun experience for my 3 year old!! I mean... seriously!!?! Haha She was just awesome to work with and we LOVE our flooring!!!!! It's beautiful!! Thank you Megan for being such a great asset to our big remodeling project. read more

I have a 1,000 sq.ft. condo in need of flooring to go over existing tile and chose to go with vinyl planks since it would be in the entire condo including kitchen, laundry area, and bathroom. I visited several retail businesses and chose Tompkins due to: 1) good reviews, 2) close to my residence, 3) fair price, and 4) most important the installers are their employees, not subcontractors. (After 3 slab leaks I have had plenty of bad experiences with subcontractors who seem to have been based in parking lots and picked up for day work.) The product you can buy from Tompkins can be purchased almost anywhere (I bought CoreTec vinyl planks) so it comes down to a fair price, installation and customer service. The installers showed up on time, there were 5 of them, and they got the job done in 1 day including demo of old baseboards and installing new ones. No mess, no fuss, just got the job done. That is huge. They moved furniture back and forth and remarkably remembered where everything went and they cleaned up when they were done. I am very impressed and will recommend Tompkins and my rep Julio to anyone that is looking for a reliable flooring company. read more

After looking for floor tile at the big box stores, Tompkins in Laguna Niguel had exactly what I wanted. Also looked for luxury vinyl flooring, then changed to carpeting for 3 bedrooms. Cheri was very helpful and patient and pointed out the superior pet proof carpeting now available! I made many trips and checked out many samples over several weeks. Cheri ordered larger samples for me. Once the decision was made, Cheri came and measured, checked availability and wrote up the very reasonable estimate. The tile installers did a beautiful job. The carpet installers did 3 bedrooms in a little over 3 hours! Cheri just dropped off some bottles of the manufacturer's carpet cleaner. Awesome service by a local company! I highly recommend Tompkins! read more

I find the service unreliable; twice I was cancelled for a estimate at my house within minutes of the appointment. I find them disrespectful with customer's time and efforts to work I do not recommend them at all read more

Great experience with the team from Tompkins. From design to completion. Thanks Julio for all your advice and support read more

Tompkins Flooring - Incredible working with Tompkins. Kudos go out to Julio and team for the design ideas and installation of flooring backsplash and carpet. - Flooring Near Me - Laguna Niguel, California

Although ultimately I didn't use Tompkins (the deciding factor was a personal connection with a different flooring company), I received excellent service and advice from Carisa at Tompkins. She was attentive and patient, and made all the samples I needed available to take home, and a home visit and quote was with me in well under 24 hours from first going into the showroom. I can thoroughly recommend them. read more

Tompkins did a great job of installing my carpet as well as remodeling my bathroom. Special thanks to Julio who not only had a warm and friendly attitude but did a fantastic job of tiling the bathroom. Highly recommend this company to anyone who values quality professional work. Val S. read more

We purchased hardwood flooring from Tompkins approx 10 years ago. We covered over 2000 sq ft. I need to add 10ft' of flooring due to adding construction in the living room. The person answering the phone (sales?) laughed when I told him the amount I needed and asked if I had checked elsewhere. He said "I'd have to charge you $100.00 if you were only going to order 1 box"... I mentioned that I had used this store to install the 2000' flooring (spending quite a bit $) and would be more than happy to find a retailer who would be more helpful and not laugh at the customer. read more
