Discount Carpet
is the subject of this site... I share with you what a true Discount Carpet is and
what it is not. But finding great quality Discount Carpet is not as easy as it sounds. Of course I will share with you the best places in the Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley areas of southern
California to get Discount Carpetand Carpet Remnants. New Carpet can be one of the easiest, quickest and rewarding redecorating projects if you know the who, what, when, where, how and why's.
Unfortunately,
there is much misinformation which can lead to confusion, frustration and that can
be expensive. Here I share insider secrets so no matter where
you live, you can make an intelligent decision for you, your
family and one of the biggest investments in your life...your home.
Two words that set us apart from the others...
We care. Once you find a place to purchase Discount Carpet, if those people
only care about the sale and not you, then you may not be getting a good value. I have been serving you, your friends and
neighbors for 3 decades. My background is carpet and flooring installation. As a retired carpet installer, flooring contractor and professional inspector, owner of a carpet
repair service and carpet cleaning business, I have seen first hand which type of carpet styles and colors work for a given
room and which look like crap after a month.
I have become the Trusted Advisor for thousands of customers. My customers rely on me for honest and useful advice that will affect their carpet decision. Unlike other clowns
in this industry, I never tell my customers what they want to hear just to get a sale. I built my reputation and business
on satisfied customers, Not sales.
Over the years, customers have come to me to share their stories of being
taken by some scam or what not. Here I expose some of the common scams in this industry
so you know how to spot one and how to avoid being taken. I will not mention any names
of companies involved but I assure you, you would be surprised.
TRADITIONAL CARPET STORE
TRADITIONAL
CARPET STORES VS. DISCOUNT CARPET STORES
The Discount Carpet Store
Discount
Carpet stores are much different. When you drive up you know immediately that you are at the right place. No fancy
storefront, just a warehouse (possibly clean). You are greeted by a salesperson wearing
jeans (with or without holes) and a t-shirt (possibly clean).
These are wholesale only stores or "wholesale to the public"
that purchase one-of-a-kind Carpet Remnants, Roll balances and rolls of Carpet Closeouts, Discontinued Carpet, Over-stocked
Carpet, and Carpet Seconds from the manufacturer at a greatly reduced price
and then passes the savings on to their customers.
Those
customers know to do some easy legwork (Like measuring the rooms and calling a independent carpet
installer recommended by the discount carpet store) and bring in their room measurements to save
a lot of money (often paying less than Wholesale cost).
The carpetis in stock
right now and ready for immediate installation. These discounters don't have samples to loan out so
if you want to match you must bring in your paint and fabric swatches etc. to the warehouse.
Since they are wholesale only, they do not provide installation however they will be able to
refer you to a qualified independent carpet
installer. The installer will pick up your carpet and padding for you, deliver and install for a lower price and you pay the installer directly AFTER the installation is completed.

TV show "BEST BUYS" and one of the best Carpet Remnant and Discount Carpet Warehouse in the San Fernando
Valley of Los Angeles.
The Traditional Carpet Store
Traditional Carpet
stores are known as "Sample Stores". These stores have 10,000 or more samples
of carpet that you can look through. Some of these traditional stores will let you check out samples to take home. These
are storefronts on major streets with glass windows on the front, lit signage and no warehouse or at least no visible
warehouse with customer access. These stores are neat and tidy and often fancy.
Customers are greeted by a salesperson wearing a shirt and tie (often in a 3-piece suit).
Some of these people act like they are doing you a favor by being there and can be snobby
at times. Customers select a carpet from a tiny useless sample, the salesperson
goes to your home and measures and gives you a price all inclusive of installation.
The price includes the wholesale cost of the carpet, padding and installation
plus profit of around 40%. No matter what the advertisement says or your coupon says, you are paying RETAIL at these places.
Since
the carpet is not in stock, the materials are special ordered. When the materials arrive
(often weeks later), installation is scheduled.
How Long will my new Discount Carpet Look
New?
In the U.S., Carpet
is replaced on average every 7 years. Some places like California carpet replacement is much less. Here is a fact to consider.
The cheapest crap carpet on the planet will be fully intact at the landfill 1000 years from now. This is not an exaggeration.
Yet, that same carpet, (if installed in a high traffic area) will look terrible after only one month.
So, what matters most is not how long a carpet lasts but rather how long your carpet will look brand new. Here,
I share my experience with you so you can easily compare different carpet styles so you will know what you are looking at
and you can compare.
This is important
because two carpets can look identical but be totally different quality and price. Finding a great Carpet Warehouse is one
of a few small and easy steps you'll take to get a great value... This is so easy and will only take a few minutes... Lets
get started!
Be Educated BEFORE you Start
to Shop for New Carpet.
This means knowing the right way to measure for carpet and bringing
in the measurements to the Discount Carpet Warehouse you choose. You want to know those insider secrets I talked about before
and how to select the right carpet and carpet padding. You want to know the truth about
carpet warranties and then which carpet is right for you and your budget. The very
first step in getting the best value from a Discount Carpet Warehouse is knowing how to buy carpet like the insiders do.
If you already
know all about Carpet and are ready to go to a great discount carpet warehouse in the Los Angeles and San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita, Thousand Oaks area then I thank you for your time.
