Back in ***************************************** my bedroom I keep seeing flaw after flaw. Here is the list of things. 1-you can clearly see the seems 2- bed frame supports are all broken bed is sagging now. Bed was not removed from room when they installed carpet just slid it around causing the supports to break. 3- fraying on the edges where carpet meets other flooring. 4- sloppy cuts around floor vents 5-new added tack strips in closet will stab your feet. Spikes too long.6-Base boards barely cover the sloppy cuts on the wall.Now i am noticing where these seems are the carpet is buckling causing wrinkles in the carpet in multiple spots. Nothing was done about the carpet after the install back in 21. Its getting worse as the days go by. I would like new carpet or some sort of refund.Business Response

It appears you have previously discussed this issue with a member of our customer care team, who offered to schedule an appointment for a billable repair.
Our records show that the installation was completed on November 6th, 2021, which means the one-year installation warranty expired on November 6th, 2022. 50 Floor is happy to conduct an assessment at no cost; however, any subsequent repairs will be charged at a discounted labor rate.
Please review the details of your one-year 50 Floor flooring warranty:
Gold Star One-Year Installation Warranty 50 Floor guarantees the quality of workmanship to be professional and in accordance with standards set by the flooring industry. Should further installation service related to the original installation of your flooring be required, 50 Floor will provide that service at no cost to you for the first year of your floor.
This warranty is valid only for original owner-occupied residential installations performed by a 50 Floor authorized independent contractor. It will be invalidated if the flooring condition is due to improper maintenance or cleaning, abuse, excessive moisture, vandalism, or alteration.Respectfully,
50Floor

Initial flooring install 8/14/23 of *** flooring the floors were making clicking sounds everywhere. The installer told us that the headlocks were bad and the flooring was defective but ******* the ** told us it was the underpayment that we were hearing, he then ordered more of the same *** flooring and when the installers came to glue the floors down this time they told us that it would cost $2000 more dollars in addition to the $10,865 that we had already paid to remove the existing tiles on our floors. Immediately after the *** was glued down before the installers left our home the planks were coming apart, completely separating from the padding which was glued to the floor. ******* ordered laminate flooring and told us that was an upgrade from what they had previously installed. The installer came back to our home and installed laminate flooring which is what we currently have now and the floors are making crunching and clicking sounds everywhere. The flooring instructions on the packaging say that the flooring should be acclimated to the home in the packaging for a few days prior to installing them. The acclimation process was never done prior to any of the flooring that has be put in our home. Our floors are extremely loud to walk on with crunching and clicking sounds almost everywhere we walk. This issue will devalue our home by a very large amount if not resolved. We have asked for a refund several times. We would like our money back so that we can have these floors removed and new flooring installed by a different flooring company. ******* the ** has been dismissive to us regarding our concerns. He will no longer accept or return any of our calls and sent us a text message (which I will attach to this complaint) telling us to not respond to his message and that he will not do anything more to correct the flooring issues and gave us an email address to customer service. I have sent ******* the same video I am attaching to this complaint showing the issues.Business Response
Date: 05/22/2024
Per the manufacturer's specifications, our flooring does not require acclimation when housed in a climate-controlled setting, which our warehouse meets.
In line with your one-year installation warranty, 50 Floor will gladly repair any installation errors at no cost within one year from the installation date. However, after reviewing your concerns, a refund or replacement is not warranted. Movement and sound are normal characteristics of a floating floor and not considered defects. Seasonal movement due to temperature changes is typical for all floating floors.
If you choose to have an inspection by a third party, it must be conducted by a certified flooring inspector. We will review their findings and consider a resolution based on the report. Please note that the cost of hiring the inspector will be your responsibility.

I am rejecting this response because:There is something wrong with our floors whether they are defective or were not installed correctly. The sounds that our floors are making are not the typical sounds of a floating floor. We would like to have someone from 50 Floor to come out and evaluate our flooring and the issues that we are having. Preferably not your general manager ******* who seems to have taken the issues that we are having with our floors personally and is unable to treat us in a professional manner. He has told us to not contact him anymore (I have attached a video screenshot of his response to the video showing what is happening with our floors). Please see letter attached from a reputable flooring company who we have contacted to provide his professional opinion regarding the issues that we are currently experiencing with our laminate floors. We are absolutely not satisfied with our flooring that is either defective or incorrectly installed, the damages our home has sustained during the install and the horrible way that we have been treated as costumers by 50 Floor.
We have a video available of the current issues and noises that our floors are making available upon request. I am unable to upload any videos.
Sincerely,
*************************Business Response

We wish to remind that a complete replacement of the upgraded flooring material has already been provided as a courtesy, free of charge, for this same issue. We reassert that movement and sound are inherent characteristics of floating floors and are not deemed defects. Seasonal shifts due to temperature fluctuations are common in all floating floors; thus, further replacement or refund is not justified based on the sound and movement of a floating floor.
Our position does not allow for a different resolution based on the opinion of another flooring company; however, we are open to examining a certified flooring inspection report and may consider a resolution contingent on the report's conclusions.

I am rejecting this response because: We would like someone from 50 Floor come and inspect the flooring because we are certain that there is something wrong. At the very least someone from 50 Floor could reach out to us so that we can send them a video of the issues that we are having. A certified flooring inspection could cost us thousands of dollars that we will not be reimbursed for even when they confirm that there is an issue.

Since February 24, 2024 I've been trying to 1st get them to properly repair/ fix scratches in floors and glue spots throughout the 1800 sq ft install.Throughout this entire ordeal there have been 4 different installation companies here from 50 Floors to either install or repair, replace and/or clean glue from floors. 2nd get our money refunded.I have now requested a refund from 50 Floors and they have stopped communicating with me.The installer filed a claim with their insurance and I received $10,000 from the insurance company. I'm still wanting the return of the remaining $15,222.50 Floors has admitted that the glue will not come up. The installation contractor has tried multiple times to to clean the floors and the spots remain the same.The floors have scratches, spots of glue, residue, chips, indentations from tools used to fix flooring, glue come through seams between flooring boards. Missing and shoddy install of half round molding, leveling agent on baseboards and my new front door. Damaged dining chairs.

I signed a contract with 50 Floors 8/29/2023 with an addendum dated 11/15/2023. The contract was to replace wood flooring with ******** flooring on the house's main level, stairs and second floor landing. Due to water damage in the living room, I requested that up to 3 subfloors be replaced if required. My contract IDs are ********** and **********. The floor installation started 1/11/24. Due to some installation problems, the job wasn't completed until March 22. I had been told by ************ (salesman) that I wouldn't be billed until the installation was complete and if no subflooring or less than 3 pieces were used, I'd get a refund. I asked how much the subflooring cost and he said about $300 per piece. The floor billing started in February and I hadn't signed off on the installation. Also, no subflooring was installed, but I was being billed for it. I called Mr. ** numerous times concerning these issues. He told me he would pass my complaints to his manager. On March 11, I spoke with ********** at 50 Floors. He said he could get my job finished but he wasn't in charge of refunding any money. He told me to call 1-877-50-FLOOR *************). Although the job has been completed, I NEVER signed off on it. I signed off on the repair of the scratch done by the installers. I have tried calling 50 Floors and left messages but no one has returned my calls. Currently ***** Fargo holds the loan on the flooring.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
!. I did not signoff on the completion. I don't know who signed my name on the Certificate of Completion but it wasn't me. I did sign the SR for replacing the damaged boards.
2. I don't know where the cut & paste line indicating 2 plyboards for $375 came from but it wasn't on any paperwork I had. When I did the contract, I told **** (the vendor) to have at least 3 subfloor pieces in the contract due to possible water damage. He told me it would be included at about $375 per piece. I needed to know this because this charge was going to a third party.
3. I have paid in full the ***** Fargo loan so the check needs to come to me.

We apologize for any discrepancies in the pricing and are prepared to refund the original amount requested of $300 per sheet, totaling a refund of $600.

This was a huge investment for some really poor quality carpet. I ended up overpaying them too, but unfortunately thats my own fault for not paying closer attention.

Please refund full payment to 50 Floor for install, materials, and the cost to replace my original baseboards that match the other flooring in residence. The refund would make me whole, as no QUALITY standard flooring or PADDING was laid, my original baseboard were damaged, leaving cracks and it is not PREMIUM floors, below standard 8mm as local store's standard is thicker and more durable 12mm to 22mm vinyl or marble. I paid PREMIUM PRICE for best QUALITY and 50 Floor advertises FREE installation when $1500+ is spent. Full refund is properly calculated to start project all over, hire professionals to remove insufficient 8mm cheap materials & reinstall *****mm vinyl or floors with 20 year warranty that protects customers on normal shoe wear, has PROPER padding, & new surrounding area baseboards, yet what was installed only has limited warranty. The wood floors that connected to what was installed by 50 Floor that I've had for years are buckling since 50's install. The quote I sent the ** didn't include new baseboard bordering, it was only for matched 8mm not the quality standard flooring of at least 12mm.
My mental anguish is PRICELESS, when I researched and found 50 Floor company with A+ BBB rating. Disappointed as I've been in contact with them since 1st business day of install & was ignored, until I posted my BBB review. I can consider updating BBB review to satisfied when my refund terms are met. I can't find out how to update my concern's missing data, but hopefully can find the answers within my 7 attachments. Thanks for your review and consideration of the uploaded documents, referring to Home Construction Consumer Protection Act of home project document guidelines, as requirements are missing so it's Invalid and Voided due full refund. I'm request $6500, as I prefer they not come back to do any more damage.

This company must be really struggling or not sure what could be another reason to deceive the buyers like that. The sales guy who came to do measurements for our carpet in November 2023 had a sample of nice carpet on him that is what we thought we were paying for. However, on the day of installation they brought a very cheap bad quality (a lot worse than builder grade) carpet with a terrible chemical smell. When I lifted a corner I could literally see the light coming through the carpet and took pictures. Our old what they call builder grade carpet looked and felt much better quality (attached pictures of both carpet to compare). But it was too late to change the order because our old carpets have been ripped out really quick before I noticed the difference and we needed new carpets that very same day.This company sells really cheap terrible quality carpet that is $0.93 per sq ft at Lowes at triple the price. Their manager was also very unprofessional on the phone and said he could see the difference between the two carpets pictures I sent him but theirs was still the best quality and kept repeating it all over like a broken record. He said just wait till it blooms. Its been 4 months but still no blooming.Business Response

Dear Valued Client,
We regret to learn that your experience with our flooring service did not meet your expectations.
Upon reviewing your file, we noted that the product verification was signed before the installation, confirming that the selected carpet was approved for installation. This process provided our client with the opportunity to confirm the product before installation. After the installation was completed, our client signed a certificate of completion,verifying that the installation met satisfactory standards. We kindly ask you to review the signed consumer documents.
As the installation and the carpet, itself are not at fault, but rather a matter of personal preference, 50Floor is willing to replace it with a carpet of your choice by paying only our cost.
50Floor takes pride in the quality of our products and the warranty of our installation. In line with your contract,50Floor provides a Gold Star One-Year installation warranty, ensuring professional workmanship that adheres to the flooring industry's standards. If additional service related to the original installation is necessary, 50Floor will provide this service at no additional charge during the first year following your installation.
We understand your concerns and regret that you are dissatisfied with your experience; however, after a thorough examination of your signed contractual agreement, it is clear that 50Floor has met its contractual obligations as outlined in the attached signed documents.
Sincerely,

Thank you for your help in this matter!
As I mentioned the installation crew was moving super quick and our old carpets have been ripped off by the time I saw the quality of a new one. We have two kids who needed their bedrooms to sleep in and we couldnt wait another week or so till 50 floor tries to look into this matter. It took forever to get an hold of their manager that day. Weve been trying since 8 am and were only able to reach him around 2:30 pm.
All our furniture has been moved and pushed, no major damage just instability or shaking of the beds but I wouldnt want to go through this process again. It took us forever to clear dirt and dust from our windows, walls furniture because they had to scrape the floors and there was huge smoke of dust in every single room. With that being said we absolutely dont want to go through this disaster again and reinstall carpets again as 50 floor offering. All we ask is to adjust the price accordingly to their carpet quality which sells for $0.99 at Lowes not what we paid to 50 floors for it.Thank You!

The customer was offered an alternative carpet selection, but chose to proceed with the original installation.
It should be noted that the installation and the carpet quality are not in question; it is simply a matter of personal taste. 50Floor is prepared to replace the carpet with one of your choosing, charging only the cost price.
We acknowledge your concerns and are sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction. However, a detailed review of your signed contract confirms that 50Floor has fulfilled all contractual commitments as specified in the provided signed documents.
Sincerely,

I reached out about my flooring warranty and the products they installed is not accurate. I purchased in 2022. We have pets and they walked through to recommended this laminate flooring that are 24 hours water resistant, wear resistance and joint integrity etc. Best for pets. Beforehand they sent people to install the flooring upstair they rushed. The floor looks ok and then when we had pet accidents we cleaned it up right after. However the laminate bumps mostly everywhere including peeled off laminate and scratches even under our bed that there is no accident but bumps? I contacted them in November 2023. They sent somebody to check it out and took pictures. They confirmed that people who installed the flooring did not do the right way. They said that the installer is the problem. The product they suggested is discounted. Before I bought, there is lifetime warranty included.I mentioned that we have lifetime warranty to have it replaced. They confirmed that there have. After that I heard nothing for months. I contacted to follow up every week since November. Nothing action had been taken. They kept telling me excuses. First- not enough staff, Secondly holidays came around the corner, Third they said they submitted vendor to warranty many times and heard nothing. Lastly they said it takes up to 3 to 6 weeks. I goes, It has been months now. Speaking at this moment it has been 4 months now. Nothing happens. I am tired of chasing to correct the situation i have ongoing. It impact my future plans.Business Response
