Get matched with top carpet installers in San Anselmo, CA

"The salesperson, Mark (?), was great. Very thoughtful and generally a really nice guy. I was looking to recarpet two bedrooms - didn't want to spend a ton and didn't want anything super plush. He steered me towards some good possibilities. Shopping for carpeting can be very overwhelming. Once he came out to the house to measure, it became clear that some options would create a clearance problem with closet and bedroom doors. I am glad he noticed that because otherwise, I'd have had to have the doors removed and cut -- costing me more. The installers were prompt, polite and thorough. And very quick. Remarkably so. The only negative comment I can make is that the pad installed is not as cushion-y as I had hoped. Because of the concern about door clearance, a very thin pad was recommended. As it turns out, I could have gone with something a bit thicker, which would have been a lot better. Even the installer was surprised by the choice but at that point it was too late. <br />"

"From the first contact with Jim until the last room was laid, we were very pleased with Conklin Brothers. Not living in this area but helping out my parents, I consulted Angie's List. This is where I found the great reviews on Conklin Brothers. My need was immediate. I was bringing my father home on hospice. Within one week, the carpet was  measured, ordered and laid. I was so impressed with the value and timely response I asked Jim to come out and do the little cottage. Another great job with excellent results. Thank you Jim <br />"

"on time, on budget, quality work"

"Overall a pleasant experience.  we went to Armstrong's shop on West Portal and with the assistance of a knowledgeable salesman, Kevin, selected suitable carpeting.  kevin came to see the apartment, measured it out and sketched the best and most economic way on cutting the carpeting to fit the premises.  This measuring of the floor plan is somewhat tricky because of alcoves, closets and diagonal cut-offs.  But he managed beautifully.  The overall price was less by several hundred dollars than 7 years ago when the apartment got the last carpeting job.  This even though the square foot price of the carpeting was almost the same.  Kevin also has a very keen 'color sense,' which helped in harmoniously matching the existing wall colors with the carpeting. <br />"

"My contractor recommended Sam's to purchase flooring for my entire house including stairs.  I provided measurements done by my contractor who did the final install.  Sam's gave me a price that was half of a major flooring company (has radio ads) for a major brand of laminate.  We also purchased baseboards which was much better quality than large hardware chain."

"Their measurement and estimate were prompt and professional. They were patient about waiting for insurance payment to come through. They came out and took a sample to the lab for asbestos testing. <br /> Sadly there was asbestos, and we had to deal with a different outfit to remove all the old flooring and underlayment. <br /> I was surprised that City Carpets only sent one man to do the installation. A second working would have made the job go faster. And as it was, I had to help moving the refrigerator in and out. <br /> The only real problem with City Carpets' work was that the piece of vinyl, as provided by their supplier, was labelled with the wrong size! This caused a delay of 4 days after they discovered this and had to re-order. <br />"

"They are really professional. They had pretty reasonable pricing. The installation team was excellent."

"We have purchased other rugs at California Carpet and always liked the choice and service.  We went back again for our re-carpeting needs upstairs.  DJ at the San Carlos store assisted us in finding the carpet to suit our needs.  He showed up a wide variety of carpets from many price points.  We wanted a good, durable, soft and long lasting carpet.  He would have been more than happy to show and sell us carpet from their "roll room" right up to the designer section.  We didn't feel like we were steered to any particular style.  He listened to our desires and needs and explained the benefits of the various brands.  We settled on a Karastan Smartstrand cut pile.  It was dense, stain resistant and very soft feeling (which is what I really wanted).  It just felt so good to my hand and feet.  I love it!  It was quite a bit more than a similar carpet (about $15 to $20/yrd) but I can really feel the difference between the two.  To me, worth the extra expense.  They worked with us in finding a price that we were happy with and so were they.  It's a big expense and will last a long time, we felt it was worth getting a product that was exactly what we wanted and it really isn't that much more for the quality improvement.  Time will tell.   <br /> <br /> The installation was handled by their "in-house" installers.  Installation makes the difference.  The carpeting we replaced had seams showing all over the place.  When we purchased the house 8yrs ago the seams were already there and the carpet was only 4yrs old.  Again, time will tell, but this is a different type of carpet and seams shouldn't be an issue.  The installation crew actually installed with less seams than the old carpet, which is good.  They sent a three man crew and they installed in one day.  Two bedrooms, loft, three walk in closets, hallway and stairs.  Also, had to shuffle furniture between two rooms.  They showed up before the window given to me and were finished right before 6pm.  Transitions to the bathroom tile and to the third bedroom (carpet not changed) look great.  They were professional and friendly.  I saw that one stair got pulled up and redone when it was not to his liking.  They cleaned up when finished and were on their way.  Everything seems well installed to me and I have been assured that any problem that might come up in the future will be handled by California Carpet.  I don't have any reason to believe it will not.   <br /> <br /> I would definitely recommend California Carpet to anyone looking to purchase carpet."

"They are really, really good!"

"The contractor called in a day before to confirm the appointment. They arrived on time and were done in an hour or so. The carpets in all rooms look visibly clean! One thing to note - they didn't clean any of the corners where the wall meets the floor saying their equipment cannot go there which I found little odd."
