F.A.Qs

How might flooring warranties could be voided?

There are many different types of flooring warranties and coverage can differ. However, damages typically excluded from a floor’s warranty include:

  • Water damage from plumbing, storms or flooding.
  • Damage from smoke, fire or other casualty event.
  • Damage from improper cleaning methods or materials.
  • Damage from improper maintenance.
  • Any use of the cushion that is unreasonable or outside of the normal and expected uses within a residence.

It’s important to understand your warranty so you don’t accidentally void it. Some warranties may require regular maintenance and/or specific cleaning requirements in order for the warranty to be valid. An expert at your local Carpet One Floor & Home store can help you understand the specifics of a warranty.

What′s The Best Flooring Warranty?

When it comes to flooring, there are a number of warranties to choose from that vary by flooring type. There is not necessarily a best warranty, but it’s important to choose one that matches your expectations. Take the time to compare different warranties — some warranties provide coverage for up to 10 or 25 years, while others may offer lifetime coverage. Always read the fine print and ask your Carpet One Floor & Home consultant for more details about the different types of warranties.

At Carpet One Floor & Home we pride ourselves in having some of the best warranties in the industry, including coverage options for up to 50 years as well as life of the floor coverage on installation for all flooring types.

What should I know about flooring warranties?

Warranties vary by flooring type, region and even lifestyle, so it’s easy to get overwhelmed. When you’re shopping for warranties, you’ll always want to read the fine print. Some warranties provide five years of coverage while others provide lifetime coverage. You’ll also want to consider your lifestyle. For example, if you have pets and you want to purchase carpet, consider a warranty that covers pet stains.

The following are the general types of coverage included in flooring warranties:

Wear Warranty

A wear warranty is the most common type of flooring warranty and covers foot traffic and use.

Manufacturing Warranty

A manufacturing warranty covers defects made by the manufacturer and is separate from a retailer warranty.

Stain Warranty

Stain warranties are effective when you follow proper care and maintenance instructions to guarantee coverage.

Installation Warranty

A warranty that protects you from any installation mistakes will help guarantee the quality of workmanship is professional. You want to be confident that if you don’t love your new floor, a retailer will provide the fix at no service cost.

Carpet One Floor & Home’s easy-to-understand warranty system offers incredible levels of protection. Ranging from Bronze to Titanium, you’re sure to find the perfect warranty to fit your lifestyle. And if you’re looking for absolute assurance that you’ve made the right selection, we offer The Beautiful Guarantee – a one-of-a-kind guarantee, that ensures you’ll love your floor or we’ll replace it for free.

Will I actually use or need my warranty?

While there is no guarantee that you’ll use or need your flooring warranty, it’s still important to know and understand your warranty.

Take time to fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of a warranty with the help of an expert at Carpet One Floor & Home. Selecting a warranty should not be a rushed or uninformed decision. You’ll want to choose a warranty that aligns with your specific floor type, guarantees protection for many years and one that gives you peace of mind.

Soiling

Soil warranties are provided in case of color changes due to deposits of dry soil from foot traffic and normal household use over time. Many times, self-cleaning or having the carpet professionally cleaned is done before checking to see if coverage applies. To guarantee coverage, you’ll want make sure to follow proper care and maintenance instructions.

Giant floor was so great I tell you I called them up and I told them what I needed they came the very next day measured my room and then the day after that the morning after that they came and installed the padding and the carpet and I paid them and that was that it was a three day event it was just everything flowed smoothly and the carpet installers were so professional so kind show me in early and the price you can never beat their price on the quality of carpet that they give you and that’s about it for my review for giant floor best carpet place I ever dealt with and I’ve installed many many carpet throughout my homes over the years. And you don’t find that very often where you can rely and count on somebody you know from a company saying and doing what you’re doing what they say they’re going to do that so reliable and so responsible it’s just a great company and I can’t say enough about them.
