Get matched with top carpet installers in Charlottesville, VA

My grandfather, Salem M. Eways, came to the United States as a Stone Mason. In the late 1920s, he began selling fine textiles door-to-door in New York City, until he and his brother found an opportunity to earn money cleaning and repairing rugs. With dedication and hard work, they built the business and eventually grew into 4 stores in the Pennsylvania region. Salem then moved to Charlottesville in the early 1960s and opened a store named Salem M. Eways Oriental Rugs, located in University shopping center on Old Ivy Rd. After the passing of my grandfather, my father, Frank S. Eways, a state trooper in Pennsylvania at the time, left his job and moved his family to Charlottesville to take care of the family business. He eventually moved the store to Emmet St. across from Bodo’s Bagels, where he then grew the business to one of the largest sellers of oriental rugs in the United States in the mid-1970s. Eventually all of the Eways brothers joined together to become one of the largest and most respected flooring companies in the region.

"It was obvious from the minute we met with Aaron Sheaves that he was experienced, patient, and knew how to interpret what we wanted when we weren't even exactly sure! We are experienced home remodelers and it was great to work with someone who completely met our very high expectations and requirements. Aaron was extremely detail oriented and responsive, had great recommendations for products and colors that would look best with the overall vibe of the house, and kept us informed every step of the process with daily text updates/pictures. Project was completed on time. The floors are absolutely gorgeous and we couldn't be happier. To say he went above and beyond is an understatement and we plan to hire him again within the year when we remodel our kitchen and master bathroom. We can't recommend Sheaves Floors highly enough!"

"We used Colonial Floors to refinish about 3,000 sq ft of hardwood floors as well as put in new hardwood to replace carpeting in our hallway. A big job! The owner, Evan, was very responsive and it was apparent upon meeting him that he really knows his stuff. His quote wasn't the cheapest one we got but we went with his company because he clearly knew more about hardwood floors than the other guys, and WOW, we made the right choice. The floors came out so gorgeous! Evan and his team helped steer us in the right direction to get the modern, natural look we wanted, which I know we never would have achieved without his guidance. Our house is transformed and I'm totally impressed. I will recommend Evan and Colonial Floors to everyone -- they are true professionals an the work is just perfection. Thanks, Evan!"

"Carpet Plus has an extensive selection of carpets and allowed me to take home many samples, over several days. Their communication was consistent and they kept me informed of the status of my order and confirmed scheduling and followed up afterwards to ensure I was satisfied. Their installer is first-rate and she did a flawless job of installing the carpet on our stairs. I highly recommend Carpet Plus."

"ED did an excellent job of painting our interior, including preparing surfaces, moving furniture, attending to detail, and cleaning up each evening. In addition, he's honest and reliable. We definitely recommend him!"

"Botched install AND reinstall; dismissive, rude staff Flooring purchased and installed in our home in 2023 and joints began to separate within months. When I reported this by phone to Floor Fashions, I was advised to glue the pieces together using wood glue. Glue failed and another joint started bowing. I went back to the company in June 2024 then waited three months for reinstallation. After another month, the reinstalled pieces are now separating as well. Visited showroom to demand resolution. The response of the warehouse manager – responsible for reinstall – was to note that I had not responded to a follow-up call placed three days after the reinstall (seriously). When I explained thst as a customer it’s my responsibility to pay – not to return his calls, his response was “this conversation is over” and walked away. Exchange was witnessed by sales associate who sold us the flooring. Images show install and reinstall."
