Only price is, he doesn't have his Email on his card he gave me. So if you don't read this, you won't know about him.



Story Number 2:
We started several months ago at our local Home Depot and gave them the store in Pearl City that we wanted to work with. They contacted Pearl City and got a number of carpets that were available here that we could choose from and gave us samples. We picked the carpet and scheduled the measure - they need someone to come and measure before they will quote the final price, etc. We had the measure done in July and a week later the Pearl City floor people contacted us directly to send the final quote. It was a good thing that happened because, at that time we found out the carpet we had selected had a 6 -12 week lead time and wasn't going to work for a September install date.

She gave us a list of the carpets they had in stock and could meet our install date and we went to our local store and looked at them and selected another carpet. By now it was mid-August and another call back to Pearl City got all of the paperwork finalized, the carpet ordered from the warehouse, and the install date requested. A few days later, we got a call confirming our install date. The people in the flooring department at the Pearl City Home Depot were wonderful to deal with. You always got a call back if they weren't available and everything was handled very expeditiously.

When we arrived on Island, we stopped by at the Home Depot and met the person we had been dealing with and re-confirmed our install date and time. Everything went according to schedule and the install was done in about 5 hours with us moving the furniture out and in. You could pay extra ($$$) to have them move the furniture.

The installers were: General Trades and Services. They do all kinds of flooring installation and are contracted with home depot and some of the other flooring stores. If you have your own materials you can contact them directly. Phone
678-0876, speak to Miles in the office or George the owner. We were very pleased with their work.
