      A year ago I bought carpet from 50 Floors. The carpet is now buckling. I contacted *** ******** twice and he never responded . I received a email from ****** ****** who asked me to send pictures, which I did. He responded and said that I needed to get the carpets cleaned and to send the receipt to him, I responded and asked him if I would be reimbursed and he said no we are doing you a courtesy by having the rugs stretched. First of all I spent quite a bit of money on the carpet, and its been down for a year which is why I want to know why is it buckling after only a year. I also sent an email to ******, and as of yet I have not gotten a response back from anyone about this carpet cleaning bill.

      Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We understand your frustration, and wed like to provide some clarity on this matter. 

      Your carpet installation was completed on February 10, 2023, the installation warranty expired on February 10, 2024. While the warranty period has passed, 50 Floor is committed to ensuring your satisfaction and has offered, as a courtesy, to restretch the carpet at no cost to you.

      Its important to note that carpet maintenance, including professional cleaning, plays a crucial role in preserving the condition of your flooring. Proper cleaning helps prevent issues like buckling, which can occur due to a variety of factors, including changes in humidity, foot traffic, or lack of maintenance. Unfortunately, the cost of cleaning is not covered under your warranty or by 50 Floor.

      We kindly request that you have the carpets professionally cleaned using the hot water extraction method, which is the recommended method for maintaining carpet integrity. Once the cleaning is completed, please email us a copy of the receipt so we can proceed with scheduling the complimentary restretch.

      50Floor came to install flooring in my house 10 December 2024. They were to install laminate in our basement and carpet in our two sun rooms. The installed the basement first, and then the carpet 11 December 2024. Upon arrival I gave the first half of the payment $9440.42. They had a crew of five men. They finished in one day. Then the next day they did the carpet in both sunrooms. They worked late into the evening on 10 December, and came about 9:00 a.m. 11 December. They finished the carpet on the same day. I paid them the remaining balance of $9,440.42. I I was constantly being rushed, and didn't get a chance to inspect the flooring in the basement until after they left. Most of the laminate had lines in them like railroad tracks. It is over the entire basement. I have been trying to reach 50Floor and the call goes to an overseas call center. I have been lied to constantly. One person said he was in **********, and then asked me what state I was in. I told him that if he knew where Birmingham was he would know what state I was in. He never would respond to my statement. I asked to speak to a supervisor in customer service in the *************. He further stated, now that no one was answering the phone in the ********** customer service ***** and would send a ticket for someone to contact me. It is amazing how I could talk to local people when they wanted my money now can't receive any response. I also found a couple sets of my dumbbells missing..

      The flooring is defective or damaged during installation. I contacted 50 Floor and they asked me to send pictures and I complied. They falsely claimed that the issue was from moisture in subflooring and refused to send anyone to inspect in person and refused to adhere to the " lifetime Warranty".

      I decided to go with 50 floors because they told me that they could complete my flooring project in one day. This project ended up taking over two months and resulted in my husband and I having to take off seven days of work total. There were many problems with this job and many visits that were required for them to either come back with the correct material or Fix major issues that went wrong with the floor project. I was told that somebody would contact me over two months ago to discuss a resolution for all of the inconveniences and to also address all of them this time from work that resulted in financial loss. Nobody has contacted me despite all of my Messages and emails reaching out to try to get somebody to respond. To make matters worse, the last person that I spoke with gave me not one but two wrong emails for a supervisor to speak with and they both bounced back. I am reaching out for genuine support from the BBB because I have been ignored intentionally and not provided a resolution. I also didnt sign my contract at the end because I dont consider this job done, however, I have been billed for this project monthly on my payment plan. I do not consider this project complete until I have a resolution from 50 floors to compensate me for all of my husbands and my missed time from work and all of their wrongdoings, some of which were even harmful for my animals. I have much more documentation- texts and emails and pictures- they just wont upload

This documentation prompted **************** to process the financing for your project. For transparency, we have provided a copy of the signed paperwork for your review.

      To account for the inconvenience and time missed from work, we have offered a $1,000 refund as a resolution. This offer reflects our commitment to providing fair compensation and addressing your concerns. While we understand your frustration, this will be our final offer. We will, however, continue to honor all aspects of your installation warranty, including completing the remaining repair.

      I had LVP flooring installed May 6 of 2022 with a lifetime warranty. Had a problem with the flooring in August was told that it is out of warranty. After some emails back-and-forth they finally sent someone out to repair it the gentleman that repaired it said the floor was installed improperly. Since then we have a bigger problem in the middle of the floor. They refuse to do anything about it.

      Hello, 50 FLOOR, *** sold me on a laminate hardwood floor and installed the floors successfully. You can see the floor in the picture has a nice wood grain and you can feel the grain to the touch. The issue is they did not use the same material on the stairs. The stairs do not match the floor - they are slick to touch and have a different wood grain pattern all together. The tone/color is similar but otherwise, this is not the wood laminate we selected. We were not informed a different material would be used on the stairs. Also, the stairs cost us more than $5K so this is unacceptable. It doesn't match - it looks cheap. They need to redo the stairs in a matching material. I have a video that demonstrates the issue but am unable to post here.

      Business Response

      Date: 12/09/2024

      Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We appreciate the opportunity to address this matter and provide clarity.

      The stair caps used in your installation are the coordinating stair caps designed to complement your selected laminate flooring. These stair caps are crafted to coordinate the tone and color of the flooring while meeting the necessary safety and durability standards for stairs. While they may differ slightly in texture or pattern from the planks used on flat surfaces, this is standard for laminate stair installations across the industry.

      We understand that visual and tactile differences can sometimes raise concerns, but the products used were the correct and industry-standard options for your flooring choice. Regarding the cost, the additional expense reflects the specialized materials and labor required for stair installations, which differ from standard flooring areas.

      As an additional option, we would be happy to complete a sand-and-finish process on the stairs at your expense. Please note, however, that this involves a different process from the laminate flooring installation, and we cannot guarantee an exact match between the two.

      If youd like further clarification or assistance, please dont hesitate to reach out to us directly at ************.

      Respectfully,

      50Floor ************* sent a salesman out and we decided to have some carpet replaced in two rooms. The salesman scheduled a time to have the work done and even made a call to someone to guaranteed the availability and time. We cleared the rooms and the first time they called to cancel was about 4:30pm the day before. We rescheduled for the following Saturday, the call came about 15 Minutes before scheduled time to be there and canceled again. It was scheduled again for two weeks later. We spoke to several people and did get to a ****** credit. The installer did show up this time, no call before arriving just showed up. No one new about the credit and they even demanded payment of the other half before installing. We did a $800.00 deposit with the salesman at the beginning and had to pay the remaining amount before installing. We did speak with a couple people and they were very blunt and ******* has been my experience if any company asked for money up front, go somewhere else. The whole experience with this company was very poor, people are rude and do not care.

      On Sept 30, a sales person from 50 Floor, ***, came to my condo to discuss flooring. Since it was the last day of the month and he had driven 90 minutes to get there, he asked me to go ahead and make a $500 deposit to lock in my price and prevent him from having to come back out later in the day in person. He told me it was refundable and that I would get a copy of the paperwork and the tentative tile choices. I did not receive any paperwork and when I asked him about it, he said he had typed in my email incorrectly and would contact corporate to get it corrected. That never happened.The next day due to a change in my employment status, I spoke to my sales person and canceled the flooring. He told me he would take care of it and refund the $500. Approximately a week later, 50 floor called me again to see when they should come back out and I told them I had canceled and was waiting on a refund. The person on the phone told me he could see it was in process and that I would receive it shortly Since then I have called the corporate office three times and they have refused to let me speak to the ************ and have assured me that they would have the manager call me back. I still have not received any calls nor a refund of the $500. I called corporate again this past Friday and told them if somebody did not call me back I would be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

      In August, 2022, 50 Floor installed a new floor in my kitchen for $1146. ******** warranty I was told. 2 years later the floor is beginning to have gaps between the boards and is loose in places. I emailed the company to call about correcting the problem. I received a voice mail that said the warranty was expired and they would have to charge me to repair the floor. The person on the voice mail was not distinct and talked very quickly and I could not get all the phone number. I just want a floor that lasts longer than 2 years and I am not going to pay the same company who installed the problem floor that I have now. They can either come fix it at no charge to me or refund me a lifetime floor warranty minus 2 years use. At least a floor should last 20 years so that would be $1146 minus 10% so they would owe me $1,031.40
