National Floors Direct floors

fter coming to install flooring in our home the second time, we again felt that it was not the product we had expected. Provided that we had given a deposit and a payment of 10, 000 we contacted the company of warranting a refund. They were unprofessional in their response and stating that we would not get our money back. How could a company charge us for having their product or use of labor when nothing was done. We have contact them with continued rejection. Such a loss has been an emotional and financial burden with no justification...

National Floors Direct carpet installation

We had a NFD salesperson at our home on April 4, 2017, we chose "stone" carpet, scheduled the installation for April 8, 2017 and put a $1, 000 deposit down. NFD cashed our check on April 5th. We received a call on April 5th telling us the "stone" carpet was not in after all, we accepted a different carpet with no fuss, even though the salesperson had "verified" that the carpet was in stock when we put our deposit down the day before. On April 6th we received a call confirming the install for April 8th. On April 7th we rented a truck and moved all of our furniture from 2 floors of our hime out into the truck so the floors would be clear for carpet. On April 7th at 5:19pm (day before install) we received a call from NFD canceling the install the next day due to material issues. We contacted our salesperson immediately and he told us it was a man power issue, not a material issue. We were unable to speak to anyone until the next day (everyone had gone home is what we were told). The next day I spoke with a NFD manager named "Tom" who told me that i may not cancel my order and that we "need to make ourselves available to NFD when they are available to do the install" I told Tom that we were very clear about needed the install on the 8th as we were in a time crunch to sell our home and we were home that day. I told him that we both work full time and could not just "make ourselves available" when NFD felt like showing up. My husband also spoke with Tom who told him that they were unable to do the scheduled install because it rained and the "trucks can't drive in the rain." That was the third different reason we were given for the last minute cancellation. We have not heard from them since. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (pending). NFD has refused to refund our deposit even though they changed the carpet we ordered, cancelled the install and never spoke to us again. $1, 000 free money for them. Absolutely horrible experience, horrible customer service, we have already told our realtor to spread the word as well as spreading the word ourselves. Absolutely awful experience.

National Floors Direct carpet and install

Not only did the install the wrong carpet, destroy my new construction, leave tacks protruding, they also are fighting me on fixing it.
The carpet was ordered with the salesman as 15 ft wide, the installed 12. They left the seam apart. Put a 3 x 5 patch in the corner. Literally cut every 391 square feet of baseboard with a razor blade where it needs to be replaced. This was new construction, no flooring to be removed, no furniture. I would not sign the approval and was told I would have to call customer service. I called 3 times and emailed. I called, texted and emailed Larry the salesman - still have not received 1 reply. When we finally disputed the credit card payment until the rug was corrected, I was informed I had now voided the warranty and they could do nothing for me.

National Floors Direct hardwood flooring

Wrong floor was installed upgrade on risers not compliant sales rep texted us stating he had left company for obvious reasons at 11:45 pm out of the blue will not complete repairs. Hand up on us and state we call too much and are giving Cynthia, christine, and Jennifer headaches! Blocked our phone numbers, blame it on the installer ( Mario) and say Cynthia is the upmost in command( does she own NFD) I'd so why is it ok to falsify paperwork and initial where your customer did not? How can we the customer have a copy of the PO and NFD have a different One? FARUD! Liars and cheats with low class unlicensed contractors! Shall I say lawsuit!

National Floors Direct carpeted our stairs

This is an amazing story about National Floors Direct. They were scheduled to come out to our home Friday February 10th noon to 4pm to install new carpet on our stairs and small hallway on top of the stairs. 2 guys finally showed up at 6:30pm (2.5 hours later than the latest time given). After the 1st hour one of the guys went to sleep in the van in the driveway for the remainder of the evening. We were told the installation should take no longer than 3 to 4 hours so we expected they would be finished by 10pm. This one guy worked hard till 1:30am. If we knew it would of taken 7 hours when we have young kids we would of never had them start so late. Our kids couldn’t go up the stairs to go to bed never-mind all the banging. When all was finished we were shocked to see such a hack job. How could National Floors Direct send installers who were not competent to do this job? If this was free it wouldn’t be acceptable. You can see the staples on every step. Especially the top steps. Some steps were pulled tight around the lip where some were loose. When I called 1st thing the next morning I was trying to tell the woman on the phone about our experience and she didn’t care. It was almost like she deals with this all the time. I was bummed out that they have no customer service! I asked her if I could speak with someone who cares / someone in customer service? The nasty woman on the phone said “email some pics and someone will be in touch 3 to 5 business days. As I wanted to speak with customer service I called again on Monday Morning and the woman on the phone was so rude I actually asked her calmly if I could talk with someone in customer service. She said “lose the attitude” and hung up the phone. OMG! Shocked that a national company like this treated customers like this.
The night of the installation while the other guy was sleeping in the van it was snowing. The next morning when I snow blowed my driveway there were carpet pieces under the snow which went thru my snow blower and damaged the snow blower. (Please see pic on last page.) I have no idea how to get this repaired as I do not own a truck to bring to get repaired. When I got a call back from National Floors Direct to schedule the repair I spoke with Katerine and I asked her if there was anyone I can speak with in customer service. She said there is no one in customers service. She said if you have a complaint you can email from the website. Which I tried to do but after filling out the form I would click the submit button on the website and then get an error. So there was no way of contacting them.

On February 15th the same guy showed up who installed with a different guy.
They banged in the staples so we didn’t see them any more but they could not fix the part where the carpet folds around each step. I then asked the guys “what am I suppose to do about the snow blower” ? They said someone would be contacting me. No one ever contacted us and that is when I contacted Capital One. Besides the very poor installation job around each step the overall installation was horrible where the seams met to the other rooms and where holes were showing on the side under some of the steps. Also this carpet installed was much thinner then what we previously had.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

National Floors Direct everything

the initial person neglected to address the missing tile in the pantry and the rotted wood. he also let me select tile inappropriate for the small pantry. the 1st installers were lazy rude and unprofessional. they did not want to replace the floorboard in the bathroom, they didn't want to remove the appliances in the kitchen which states they will in the contract. the toilet had been removed so they urinated in water bottles and left them in the bathroom. I made them leave. national floors direct sent another team out the next day, they were 4 hrs. late then stated they couldn't do the pantry work, a plumber is needed. finally the company cancelled the contract

National Floors Direct installation

National Floors Direct is a nightmare to deal with. The customer service dept in Avon must only consist of one incompetent employee named Annesha Ali. After National Floors Direct cancelled the installation of rugs at my home they would not reimburse the $1000.00 deposit I had put down. The check was cashed and no services were rendered. Isn't that called stealing? National Floors Direct claim that buyers forfeit any deposit if the order is not cancelled with in 3 days. If I had a choice I would definately go to Empire rugs. They actually cancelled the day of insatllation on me as well but did send my check back within 10 days because they are a company with some moral compass unlike National Floors Direct. PLEASE PLEASE do not use National Floors Direct!

National Floors Direct misleading & does not stand by their customer service promise

National floors direct does NOT stand by their installation, warranty nor do they commit to the customer service promise that they state...
They have NO address, when you call them you get a CALL CENTER who cannot help you. Our floors were installed incorrectly with separation gaps... It has been 3 months now of waiting for an adjuster to come out & inspect the floor. They have 1 (ONE) customer service girl who answer ALL calls, & she can't help you!
I should of known that it was NOT going to be a good experience when they tell you it is CASH only paid to the installers!
Beware of NATIONAL FLOORS DIRECT they are horrible...

National Floors Direct - refused to refund deposit

Hello, I am a single mom of three girls living in a two bedroom home in Billerica. I wanted to put my house on the market and needed to replace the carpets. I called National Floors Direct in mid October, as I had seen the ads for them on tv. On Oct 14, the estimater was scheduled to visit, but called stating he was having car trouble, so we rescheduled for...

National Floors Direct not honoring installation guarantee

In September of 2013, we had hardwood floors installed in
our upstairs hallway. There were problems from literally day one. The
installers came and no sooner did they come upstairs they had to stop and
inform me that the job couldn't be done because we had the incorrect sub-floor.
due to the sales rep not properly inspecting it. so an additional $150 was
needed from us so they could purchase plywood to do the job, which had to be
rescheduled for another day.

When the new installers came, we gave them the check for the
sub-floor and i was immediately asked how they (the installers) were getting
paid, which i thought was extremely unprofessional. So they get to work, first i notice that the
thresholds to our bedrooms looked cheap but i trusted them to do their job and
let it go. the next day after the installation i stepped into my daughter's
room and the threshold snapped under my foot, breaking almost in two and
lifting and bowing from both sides. i immediately called customer service and
was informed that since i signed off on the job that i would have to file a
claim and email pictures to their customer service department, which i did
immediately. i received no response for weeks and finally after calling my sales
rep's cell phone i got a response. my claim was denied, so after taking new
pictures (the damage was much worse at this point) i sent them off to my rep
and eventually our claim was reviewed and a new, much better quality threshold
was installed.

Now, the other thresholds to my other bedrooms are starting
to lift and bow as well. i have tried again to contact and email customer
service and no one is responding to me. i now have an additional issue with one
of the floorboards in the hallway, there is a chunk of wood missing from the
corner. i have two small children at home and cannot risk their safety with
this poor work done in my home. i am livid and just want what i paid for. i
have tried to contact the sales rep again, but she has informed me that she has
left the company, partly due to the fact that they often do not honor their 1
year install guarantee with lots of red tape and ignoring their customers.

National Floors Direct beware when something sounds too good to be true because it isn't

I spent yesterday, 5/3/10 / waiting for the installers to come and put in my carpeting. After many phone calls to the company they finally showed up and worked until 8:30 in the evening. I would never deal with them again in the future. The salesman was rude and hung up on me when I was explaining my complaint. The installers did a good job but much too late. Don't believe in their buy one room get one free. They Lie. I believe I was over-charged. This will never happen again. Beware when something sounds too good to be true because it isn't.

National Floors Direct horrible installation

Really messed up our wordwork - have big problem with our laminate floor in bedroom. Sent complaint to Attorney General. Carl Hediger responded that he sent people back to my house free of charge but our problem was due to high mositure in our home. This was a lie and neve discussed. He was correct they sent people over a few times but not because of oistre. see the pictures and decide for yourself. I have sent them my photos several times.

National Floors Direct non honoring terms of their own contract

Signed contract with National Floors Direct. I gave them a deposit of $2000. Later I noticed at the very end on the back of the contract paragraph (5) it mentioned late cancellation within (3) business days. National Floors seek to count Saturdays as a business day.

At the very bottom of the back of the contract, in bold it states payment in full must be made prior to installation, they do not take any personal checks. they do take certified check, money order or visa, mastercard, discover card.

They wanted payment in full and had not even started any work. I wanted to see the finish work. I stated I wanted my $2000 dollars back and I would put all expenses on my credit card. Even though it is in their contract, they refuse to accept payment via credit card, and refused to return my $2000 deposit.

National Floors claims I did not honor their contract, and I claim they did not honor the terms of their own contract.

National Floors Direct robbery

I called National Floors Direct got an estimate and contracted with them to install hard wood flooring in my kitchen/dining room. The salesman was nice, seemed knowledgeable and the price was right. The installation on the other hand was one of the worst experiences I have ever had. They did not arrive when they promised, the subcontractors were unaware of the particulars of my installation and had to come back another day due to multiple issues. During the day of installation, after they left I discovered I was robbed. The lower level of the home, which was not having work done was were the items were missing from. The police are now involved, however; National Floors Direct is not holding themselves responsible for sending subcontractors to my home that robbed me. The installation itself is done and looks good, but at what cost. I am now in a battle which I will no give up on. Don't let them send thieves to your home. Think more than twice about working with this company.

National Floors Direct stay away

Words cannot describe how displeased I was regarding the whole process of buying a carpet from National Floors Direct. I highly advise anyone looking for carpet to "STAY AWAY" from using them! Here are two quotes from the head of their customer service dept (this person answers to ownwership) 1. "We're too busy" and 2. "I don't know what to tell you." They have a 24 hr install guarantee, it took a month to install my carpet. Do yourself a favor, pay the extra money and use another company.

To start with we didn't want the next day delivery. We told them that we would wait over a week so it could be installed early. The salesman said no problem. When the day arriveswe are told that they will be there between 3 and 6 pm. When I asked what happened to the early delivery I was promissed. The only response was we set the schedule the night before. So basically I was lied to by my salesman.

Next they do get there at 5:50 pm. Thank god the installer had half a brain. He brings me out to the truck to insure that the carpet was the right one. He wouldn't let his helper start pulling out the old until I did. I confirm the carpet and after a few minutes he realizes that he only has carpet to do about a third of the job. I tell him I don't want a partial install. They call the next day to install. I tell them don't bother. I already took a day off from work and now would have to take another. I'd rather just cancel my order. They proceeded to point out that they have a signed contract. I tell them that they didn't live up to their part of the contract. Not on time and then not enough material to do the job.

All they kept saying was we have a contract that they would hold us to. I'll never use them again!

I am presently dealing with this company and they are FRIGHTFUL. After a sleepless night of considering their estimate I called them up the next morning and verbally cancelled because it was so expensive, then sent the cancellation form in accurately filled out mailed certified and priority mailed to them. My deposit check was cashed cashed almost immediately, so fast that the next morning when I called my bank to stop payment, they informed me the check had cleared. I began receiving numerous phone calls from the sales rep and their company offering lower quotes. I stopped answering their calls because I felt harassed and angry that they suckered punched me on the original price by repeatedly lowering the estimate. I knew they had received my cancellation notice within the parameters of the contract. After waiting for the flurry of phone calls to stop I finally called them back and confirmed my mailing address which they already had on numerous forms etc. At that time I was told my cancellation was processed the day before. I waited a week for my refund in the mail. When I didn't receive it, I called them again nicely asking for it. They informed me at that time the application for my refund had not even been submitted. I asked to speak to John who had told me that my cancellation had been processed a week prior- "he was on break, everyone was on break or at lunch (at 2:30 in the afternoon) so the "receptionist" took my number for him to call me back. I waited a couple of hours, no return phone call. I spoke to someone else who reiterated that my application for refund still had not entered their system and I had to wait for billing to get to it. I asked to speak to billing "no you can't the best they could do is they will send billing an email " but they refused to give me their email address. Then I asked for John's supervisor, he wasn't there. Then they told me I had to wait 10 to 15 business days. I became more and more suspicious about the different stories. I called back again and spoke to another individual who informed me it was their right to keep my deposit for 30 days and I would just have to wait. I felt this was deliberate and asked to speak to supervisor Carl (nobody has last names or phone extensions) This is when it got really ugly. Carl answered on speaker phone, I requested that he talk directly to me, he was snide and told me to read my contract, because I hadn't returned their phone calls initially, my cancellation wasn't processed for days. That moved up my refund time. I said I wanted my money back now, he said there was a Massachusetts law that allowed them to keep it for 30 days and he said he would return it on that thirtieth day. He also said I was harassing his company by calling them insisting I get my money back when they told me what their procedure was when I spoke to Lisa and Dan. Every time I spoke to them I was polite and civil no yelling or swearing. I tried to be as reasonable as possible. I called the Massachusetts dept. of Consumer Affairs and although National Floors Direct is being obnoxious the best I can do is send a 30 day letter of demand for my deposit. They are just plain bullies and liars, what they do may not be illegal but they are truly the most unethical businesses I have ever had the misfortune of falling prey to. NEVER USE National Floors Direct. I am still waiting.

National Floors Direct scam - stealing

Please stay as far away from this company as possible!
My wife and I signed a written hardwood floor installation contract with salesman, joel fosmire, on 8/18/11. His business card reads [protected].
He stated that if we ever had any concerns, call him. He never returned any of our calls. On said date, he called, and received approval from his manager for the contract price of $500.00. He made the call from our living room.
His installation manager, carl who refused to provide us his last name, cancelled the installation stating carl wrote the order wrong and it would now cost $900.00.
We complained bitterly, carl agreed to the $500.00
Figure and scheduled a second appointment, again that was cancelled a few minutes floor they were to arrive.
Again we complained, this time carl offered $100.00 off and scheduled a third appointment and again it was cancelled.
Through all the telephone interactions with national floors direct and carl, they pressured us to cancel the installation. We were told, on outside legal advice, that if we cancel after three days, national floor keeps all deposit money. This was in fine print on the contract.
This tranlates into tremendous profits for the company if people cancel out of frustration.
We have since filed a police report, filed compaints with the attorney general, bbb, small claims court, ethic's commissions, and countless websites. This weekend, we have found close to a 1, 000 complaints against them, and i'm sure much more that go unreported.
Carl has lied to us so many times that he forgot the earlier lies. They lie, and lie, and lie.
If you have been victimized, go to the police, then attorney general. The secretary of state in your community will have on file information about the company that is hidden on national floors website.
We are now out of $1000.00 due to this fraud and scam.
I am so angry that we will be faxing out to every state attorney general this issue.
This company must be shut down and will see that they are brought to justice.

Please, we have learned that the installation manager goes under different names; Carl, Tony, Nick, etc... Can anyone provide me with his real first and last name? This will save me time getting his real name from the Secretary of State, plus court papers can then be served by the county sheriff directly to that ###.

Samual Rosenberg is the owner. He is very bad news, especially is NJ. Owned a company under a different name.
We are now in faxing Attorney Generals in the few states National Floors does business. I will do everything in my power to shut this company down.

Aug 28, 2011 5:44 pm EDT

We cannot. There is no email address, fax number, owners name, etc... There is no information for corporate office.
But, we found out, the New Hampshire Secretary of State has that information and can provide us assistance when we file court action.
From other comments in other websites, anyone above Carl, if that's his real name, is kept secret from the public. If you own such a great company, why is everyone hiding?

Hi, my name is James and recently installed hardwood in our house. We bought 1,820 sf of hardwood, which includes 10% as waste, from an online seller. The house area is around 1,650 and the rest, 170, is considered as waste.

After the installation, we were left with a total of less than 25-40 sf of wood. The contract workers took most of the left over wood, which was marked with a pencil, in their van with out asking us. When I asked the contractor he was telling me that I am lying and the wood should be here. What I should do? Please let me know your suggestions. Thank you

National Floors Direct refused to give money back after a month of no rug.

I have had just a terrible, terrible experience with National Floors Direct, and I am out over $2, 000. They boast next day installation, first of all, which is an out and out lie. I moved into my home in late Feb and called them for a flooring estimate. Their prices were pretty high but I went with them thinking they would have the fastest service.

I ordered wall-to-wall carpeting in our bedrooms, and an area rug for the living room as well as a bound runner for the staircase. The wall-to-wall carpeting took about a week because they don't feel that as a RUG company it's important to keep a rug in stock... All we ordered was a basic beige carpet, nothing special, something you'd expect a flooring company to have in droves. But that's not my complaint. The wall-to-wall was a little later than promised, but it did get done.

The bound area rug and staircase runner is where it gets interesting... They told me that binding area rugs takes about a week. It was a little inconvenient as the home we moved into has a rather disgusting area rug, but a week wasn't THAT unreasonable. A week turned into three. I called to find out what was going on, and they told me, get this, their "rug machine is broken." What? You're a rug COMPANY. Something was definitely weird about this. For the next several days, I called to follow up (and if I hadn't, I doubt I ever would have heard a word from them) and finally they told me everything was all set and we scheduled an installation.

That installation was promptly cancelled, as their "rug machine" was broken again. They made a new appointment the following day.

The following day, I got a call bright and early that the rug was all set and they would be there within a 4-hour time window.

I waited and waited and waited. When the time window was up, I called them to find out when I should expect them. Turns out nobody thought it was important to call and tell me that they weren't going to show up, because... yup, you guessed it... their rug machine was broken again.

I was upset at this point and I demanded my money back. They REFUSED to give it to me. They said that they'd already cut the rug and that it was useless to them and I would have to take it. They made me wait an additional week and a half, promising installation.

Well, a week and a half later, I got a nice 6 AM wakeup call on Saturday morning that they would be here within a 4-hour time window. This time I called several times to make sure they were coming. The operator assured me that my rug was on the truck and I was the first scheduled stop.

Guess what? They never showed, and had I not called three times, I never would have known they weren't coming. Only this time they tell me that they can't bind my area rugs as they are too thick for their fragile little machine. Their solution? They want to dump the UNFINISHED, FRAYING rugs on me, and they will not give me my money back. They want it to be my problem to find another company to bind them for me, because they are too incompetent to do it. So long story short? I have about $2, 000 worth of rug I cannot use.

STAY FAR AWAY. FAR, FAR AWAY.

National Floors Direct shoddy installation

I bought carpet from National Floors Direct on Oct 9, 2010. The installation job was awful - there is a two inch gully running along the seam of the carpet, which bisects my living room in half. Many complaints from prospective buyers - my house is on the market. Filed a claim; it was denied. Sent a demand letter, and they appeared to be cooperating by scheduling someone to come out "to take a look at it and fix it." Took a day off work and they blew me off. Called me the next day saying I was supposed to call them (not true) and that they would come out sometime after noon on Sat. Went home, sat around and waited, tried to call the guy back on the number he called me and got a high beep from a fax all afternoon. Will take this to court.
