"Home Repair Fraud. Theft by deception. We got a new floor and the installer said his brother was the field estimator and was authorized to remove the "Kitchen Cabinets"? We never wanted cabinets from a flooring company, But they targeted the owner because she is 91 years old and took them. Months later we got them back from the ex-con and hoodlum they sent to rob the owner totally destroyed and had to pay another $1300 to get them back. We feared for our safety because they wanted to know if the house was for sale and what types of cars we were driving. They prey upon the elderly. Do not use this company unless you have a criminal attorney on retainer. Stay away from DeSitter at all costs."

Jerry's Dust free flooring is the best hardwood flooring refinishing company on Angie We provide dust free guaranteed refinishing process Jerry Dust Free Flooring is family owned and operated company with great reputation craftsmanship and flooring specialist in the trade We have over 20 years of experience at dust free hardwood floors refinishing

"Yes, truly is dust free but the experience of working with them is even better than how clean they are. Everything working with Jerry went exactly as one should be able to expect from this class of professional service provider. However, he was the only one out of several top Angie's List rated companies that not only showed up on time to provide a quote but explained how he would handle the job from start to finish. The other guys really didn't want to tear out and haul away the carpet or even provide a selection of trim and flooring from which to choose. They gave a list of several stores to order the materials from with the amount of materials required. They also were going to cap the stairs instead of removing the treads if they found they weren't already oak underneath. However Jerry's quote was almost the same price but he would handle everything. Ultimately it turned out to be cheaper as once the carpet was removed it was discovered the stairs were oak and in good enough condition to easily refinish. Everything went swimmingly and our floors are absolutely stunning. High points: - I didn't have to lift a finger. (one would think that's normal since I'm the customer and not the flooring company, but apparently the other companies felt that wasn't the case.) - Arrived on time to provide quote. Quote itemized with exact cost. Explained that only if the subfloor turned out to be problematic could the cost change and we would be made aware. - Provided complete catalog to select everything from. Helped with selection by showing examples of designs and sizes in similar layouts. - Arrived on the start date when he said they would and finished the day he said they would too. - Clean, clean, clean. Exceptionally clean - Floors are absolutely gorgeous and meticulously installed. - Custom banister and newell work looks beautiful and rock solid. - Honest, called to let me know I saved money when he pulled the carpet up on the stairs to discover they were in good shape. The quote had included replacement. - Hauled all the carpet and trash away. Would absolutely use again and plan to for the remaining rooms."

Our carpet store has served Chicago, Evanston and the surrounding suburbs for more than 40 years. We offer a full mobile service to your home. We focus in new carpet and pad sales and installation, we do not offer carpet repair or restretching service. Because we are the distributor and the installer, we are able to provide high quality flooring at the best prices.

"I am so pleased with the help that we received from American Carpet Distributors! We had a burst pipe in our basement that got our carpet and padding wet. We had to throw out the padding but managed to save the carpet. Larry responded so quickly and was so easy to work with. He stopped by the house the same day I called him and took measurements to replace the carpet padding. A couple days later he sent out a very friendly and hardworking crew to replace the padding and lay our old carpet on top. It looks and feels brand new. I am so pleased that he was so promp to help. I feel like he was so fair in his pricing and that he wasn't pushy to sell me things I didn't need. The other carpet companies I called would only do the job if I bought new carpet (which I didn't need) or had a high minimum job payment. Larry saw that we really needed our basement back to working order and quickly helped us get that back. I am very satisfied and grateful!"

FAQs for vinyl or linoleum sheet flooring or tiles installation projects in Chicago, IL

While Marmoleum offers many benefits, it does have some limitations to consider. The initial investment tends to be higher than some synthetic alternatives, and professional installation is strongly recommended for sheet and tile varieties. Though resistant to moisture, Marmoleum isn't completely waterproof and can sustain damage from prolonged exposure to standing water. Lastly, heavy furniture may leave indentations over time, and the surface finish may require occasional refreshing to maintain its appearance.

Marmoleum is a bit more expensive than standard vinyl flooring. While vinyl materials cost between $2 and $7 per square foot, Marmoleum starts around $4.75 per square foot but can cost upward of $12 per square foot. This price difference reflects Marmoleum's natural composition, sustainability, and potential longevity. Many homeowners consider the environmental benefits and durability worth the additional investment.

With appropriate care and maintenance, Marmoleum flooring lasts between 30 and 40 years. Several factors influence its lifespan, including installation quality, maintenance practices, and environmental conditions. The flooring performs best when protected from excessive moisture and heavy furniture is fitted with protective pads. Regular cleaning with appropriate products helps preserve the surface appearance and integrity over decades of use.

Marmoleum can work well in kitchens and powder rooms where moisture exposure is limited and spills are promptly addressed. However, it may not be ideal for full bathrooms with showers or tubs where standing water is common. In the kitchen, Marmoleum offers good durability against food spills and frequent foot traffic. To ensure Marmoleum flooring performs optimally and lasts longer, especially in areas prone to moisture, proper seam sealing during installation and consistent maintenance of its protective finish are crucial.
