If I could give 0 stars I would. We explained to John Kelly at the Rio Grande store that we needed carpeting for 3 small bedrooms that could handle high traffic and pets in our rental. He guided us towards the Abbey's Road and the Emerald plus padding and we trusted his expertise. Big mistake. $3600 for 425 sq ft later it's been a disaster. The installation was horrible. The carpeting was puffing up at the doorways and around the edges of each room. Had to call them to have them come back and fix that which they did but didn't fix well. A year later and we have holes/rips at the doorways. Next step, get the estimator( rude and condescending Stephen Bradley) out to see if this is their responsibility to fix. Nope. It's our fault but that is no surprise. Why would a company want to stand by their product and make sure their customers are happy? Our last carpeting was 10,000 times better ( not from Avalon Flooring) and handled the same traffic/pets for 7 years with no issues besides normal wear and tear. Honestly, I am not a complainer but this experience has been such a disappointment and a total waste of hard earned money. I am so sorry I ever used this store and will absolutely never buy another product from them again.

Can’t say enough great things about Michael Pinelli from the Rio Grande, Avalon Flooring location. He went out of his way to make sure everything ran smoothly from the order, arranging the estimator to come out, getting the financing in order,to keeping me informed when the installation will be done.
He’s very professional and a pleasure to work with.

We just finished a full bathroom remodel in WW Crest and would highly recommend dealing with Avalon Flooring! Our rep, Natalie Caruso, was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. She answered all of our questions, on numerous occasions, worked with us through all the potential options and most importantly made something that seemed would be overwhelming very easy. We will be doing more projects in the future and will definitely be working with Natalie & Avalon Flooring!!
