We had empire today install flooring in our house. They installed laminate and carpet. A laminate piece has came up due to faulty work of empire. We first contacted them to get this repaired. They made a service request and contacted us once without getting a hold of us so they canceled our service request without our knowledge. Then we submitted another service request. One person called, the phone rang twice then they hung up. We have tried multiple times to get in contact with anyone and all we get is transferred another person who never returns our calls. I have sent multiple emails including pictures of the piece that needs repaired, even though they claim I have not. I have left multiple voicemails and nobody on their customer service staff seems to know whats going on and says this is not their normal way of doing business. I am getting extremely frustrated because I have a piece in my house that is damaged due to their poor negligence, since the piece is no longer attached our robot vacuum cannot even sweep without it coming off which is since their installers did the work poorly and they seem to not want to make it right. This is going on almost 3 weeks of trying to attempt to somebody on the phone to come out and look at the damage and repair it but it seems like they just try to not acknowledge it so they dont have to do any of the work to repair their crappy workmanship. Plus theyre 25 year warranty is a complete lie if its taken me this long for just a single piece, I want to make sure that nobody else gets hassle from them like we did. They show no remorse and act like its our fault that they havent been able to contact us because they call once and it rings twice and then they hang up and weve also asked them to call at certain times because we work and we cant always pick up the phone while were at work this company is horrible and needs to be punished in some type of way so that they can stop making their customers pay for their actions.Business Response

Complaint: 22818427
I am rejecting this response because:
No apology was made to myself or my husband from the company until just receiving this response. I spent many hours of my time on the phone trying to get someone to come out to fix something that was done poorly. Then they cancelled an appointment that they made due to not having the material, even though they had enough time to secure the material or just scheduled me on a day knowing they didnt have it. No contact was made when they cancelled it, I just received a email of a new day and time that they picked. They are horrible at communication and do not care at all about their customers. They also send out people that do not speak our language and we have to go through translator software just to have a basic sentence said to them. I believe an attempt to apologize WITH compensation should be sent as all they did was come out and fix what they didnt do correctly only when I contacted BBB. ******** customer service and apparently workmanship service and quality of their product. Would never recommend to anyone I know.

I am rejecting this response because: ***** ********* General Manager at Empire refuses to repair the wooden staircase that was damaged due to their contractor removing the vinyl flooring that was not installed properly. We want the wooden staircase restored to its original condition and then we will agree to having suitable carpet installed even though they had promised/ contracted with us that the floor would match the newly installed vinyl flooring. We also want the charge for the stairs to be removed from our balance. In addition the molding in all the bedrooms and hallway need replacing, the flooring that is coming up in the master bedroom replaced, also the flooring in the office room is squeezing & needs secured.

We purchased LVP flooring from Empire in Dec 2021. During the next year we noticed a lot of buckling of the floor and called Empire and, since within the 1 year warranty period, they ***laced a good portion of the floor. Fast forward to **************************************** the floor again and contacted Empire in August. We paid $150 for an inspection which occurred but they never called us to tell us the problem. We called Empire and spoke to customer service and they indicated it was a site issue but no one could tell me what the site issue was! I was then put in touch with the installation supervisor who came out and did numerous tests and found no site issues and stated she was going to ***ort it as a mill defect. Again, no return calls for a few weeks. We called and found that that the mill declined the claim. Empire indicated that the cost would be over $800 to fix the floor. When I questioned if we don't know what's causing it wouldn't it happen again and we can't keep spending $800 every couple of years for a floor that should be virtually maintenance free! They finally stated they would split the cost but still NO ONE was telling me the cause as I still don't want to be paying out of pocket to fix the floor every couple of years. After MANY phone calls I was finally told by one *** that it was an interlocking floor and that walking on it will cause the buckling! I informed them that some of the buckling was in areas where there is virtually no foot traffic and my 100-year-old mother lives with me and has a ******. The last time I reached a customer service *** (a couple of weeks ago) she told me the notes said to stop using the ******! How am I to tell my mom she can't use ******!! Every time I call they tell me someone will call me back in 24 hours but no one ever does. I don't want to keep shelling out money on a floor that you can't walk on!Attached is an email that resulted from speaking to someone but have not heard back from her.Business Response

Complaint: 22783281
I am rejecting this response because:The company only started responding (via multiple calls and texts) once they received the BBB complaint and acknowledged, by a visit to the residence from the installation manager, who concurred and noticed/documented the visible seams. During her visit she stated she'd be present at the residence when the corrected reinstall was scheduled (25 Jan 2025) to oversee the reinstall of the hallway. On 25 Jan 2025, I attempted to contact the installation manager via text message and phone (left a voice message) to confirm she'd be present. I never heard anything from her (or the company). After waiting at my residence 3/4 of the day for the install team to arrive, I was contacted by the install team saying they'd arrive at 3pm. When the install team arrived, the lead installer told me he'd been trying to contact the installation manager also (she also told him she'd be at the residence during the reinstall). The lead installer also told me that replacing just the hallway carpet would not fix the issue and it would cause more seams (at the bedroom doorways and closet doorways (something I questioned during a discussion with one of Empire todays employee). Note: Empire Today told the installer to minimize the seams at the doorways and closet (which contradicts what he was sent out to do). I told the install team not to tear up the hallway carpet if they thought the problem wouldn't be fixed. I made it clear I was not waiving any rights and wanted to speak with a manager. The install lead said he'd pass that on.
I want a resolution or to be compensated. This issue has been going on for over a month. I have paid in full but have also contacted the financing organization to dispute the charge due to the issues I'm having. As noted prior, there are other seams in the carpet that are not noticeable. I don't feel as though I'm being unrealistic. The seams are very visible in an area that's walked on a lot.

I had tile installed in my kitchen April 2023. As time went by the ***** started coming up and the tiles started to move. I called Empire in March of 2024 to get them to repair my floor. They stated I was not under warranty anymore and I would have to pay because I was one month past the warranty. I explained that this is a grout and installer defect and should not have to pay. I agreed to pay and the appointment was set up. I was to receive a call from the installer the morning of the service. That morning o call so I called and was told that the repair was cancelled by the installer and rescheduled. I told the person that I was never told it was cancelled. Long story short my wife and I called and scheduled with them several times. The installer would cancel, the installer didnt have the right materials and left, had to order more tile, that took several weeks to come in, then once again cancelling and rescheduling. We had been trying to get these repairs done since March 2024 and finally gave up in November of 2024 because of all the run around. They also wanted us to pay another $500 for their defective grout and improper initial install.I would like to get a refund for my floor. I will need to get a whole new floor installed because of their incompetence. They used defective grout and the person that installed the tiles was an apprentice and didnt lay the tile correctly.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: We were never offered a new floor at a lower cost. We were told that they would send an installer to repair but we would still need to pay. After our experience with the installers cancelling on several occasions and getting any resolution for a year we declined. We just want a refund for the floor.I just received an email from ***** today saying that we were offered a new floor at a lower cost but that is not true. ***** has never spoken to us. He left a message and gave us the scheduling number. When I called and got a direct number to him, he did not answer and never responded to my request to call me back. When I called the scheduler and asked to speak with *****, I was told he was in meetings all week.
All I want is a refund. Even if it is half of what I paid.

We provide a one (1) year service and workmanship warranty in addition to the warranty provided by the manufacturer for the product.
The customer's ceramic tile was installed in May of 2022. They first called in to report their concerns in March of 2024. Nearly 10 months after the service warranty had lapsed, so a fee applies for any service.
We apologize for any inconvenience and have offered the repair at a discounted fee. No refund is due.
