National Floors Direct – Updating For A New Owner

December 29th, 2008 by emerchant

I bought my first home around a year ago. It’s a lovely place. It’s not too big, but there’s plenty of space for myself and the intermittent visitor. However, it had one serious problem when I bought it. The last time the previous owners renovated the house, it was the 1970s. Perhaps I’m the only one, but 1970s decor is just not for me. The tye-dyed carpet and shiny foil wallpaper required a lot of work in particular. I had never even dreamed that tye-dyed carpet could exist!

Wallpaper came down, paint went up, and things began to get a little better. When I got to the point where I could start taking the old carpet out and replacing it with something a little more to my taste, I needed to find affordable floor covering that still looked good. My plan was to start in the entry and kitchen since that’s the first thing visitors would see, but I knew I’d need to replace it throughout the entire house at some point so cost was definitely an issue.

National Floors Direct was one of the major service provider in flooring that I took a look at. This place was recommended to me by a friend who had renovated his kitchen in hardwood and as I liked the renovated kitchen there I decided to give them a try. National Floors was not only place I checked out, but my decision tilted toward them as they offered to come in to my place to compare various samples against my walls as it would have been impossible for me to go into a shop and imaging how the offered ware would look in my place.

I lacked the cash for some hardwood, which sucked. Though, I checked the laminate section they possessed which had a various amount of options that matched my kitchen counter tops. The negative thing is that, none of those matched the bright orange I was hoping for. In the end, I ended up selecting a very nice laminate that resembles a cherry color that fits in perfect with my entryway.

I noticed that the laminate prices at National Floors were quite comparable with prices in other places I checked; they were not either overpriced or overly cheap, but their range of selection was not too great. However, I found that that there was no additional charge for the stairs at the entry and in the kitchen and in addition shifting most of my larger furniture pieces was also included in their offer, and this made me decide in their favor.

I was so pleased with the job done by national floors direct, that several months later I also purchased some carpet from them for some of the living areas and bedrooms of my home. The crew that came to install the carpets was not the same crew, but they were equally professional, and I’m very pleased with the work that they did and the look that it brought to my new home.

National Floors Direct is one of the major service provider in flooring. The laminate prices at national floors are similar to prices found at other stores. The prices that they offered were not the cheapest or the most expensive, but the range between these was not very large. The variety of laminates they have is fairly wide. They have affordable floor covering. You will find carpets for living room and bedrooms too. They offer to come to your places and show various samples. Their crew is very professional and they have various crews for various departments.
