Sales staff are pretty nifty...especially the one with the beard.. In all seriousness, they're a great locally owned business that treat their staff well.

My wife and I recently purchased some engineered flooring with installation, Andre and the team were awesome, no pressure atmosphere with a great selection. Got a great deal on the flooring and installation and some tile for a future project. Carl and Dara our installers did an incredible job on the installation, very professional and did a great job on the install would highly recommend them to others looking for a good price and quality installation. I am sure if we need their services in the future we will be calling them.

Carpet Emporium came highly recommended by two others. I was impressed by the selection of flooring options, and by the friendly and knowledgeable staff. I was nervous about starting my first DIY flooring project, and was so pleased to get good advice and encouragement from Ronald. It's a very customer-oriented business. I am very happy with my new floor and I will definitely return for future projects.
