Christine fron Action helped us though the process and also assited us in paint colors for the walls, very knowledgable in her field. The installers were great and had it all done to our satisfaction. Excellent communication from the staff we dealt with at Action Flooring in Edmonton

Kitchen and bathroom tiling, vinyl floor installation

The salesman who came to do the initial estimate underquoted significantly. An installer came out to start the tiling in the kitchen floor then left claiming he couldn't do it because the subfloor was not sufficient (which the salesman should have determined on the first site visit). That first installer was also very rude and dismissive.
The marble floor in the bathroom was not sealed after installation- as a result, when they did come and seal it (after I brought up the etched surface), it was too late. The finish is quite irregular, looks etched and is not glossy like I wanted.
The installer for the kitchen backsplash did not arrive within the agreed upon time frame. Someone was meant to be there between 8-10. No one arrived until after 11. Communication problems apparently.
The tile in bathrooms was not siliconed after installation.
The installer neglected to tell me that the shower fixtures needed to be changed before the tile went in which necessitated me paying a plumber extra to come for a second visit and he had to access the plumbing from the kitchen side of the wall.
The salesman also promised he would personally secure the bathroom vanity and mirror to the wall in the bathroom as I was concerned about drilling through the tile. He later reneged on this promise and I had to pay someone to do that.
Payment was processed on my credit card prior to work being completed without contacting me prior.
It's been extremely frustrating dealing with this company and every time I call, it seems like no one has any idea what's going on.
In the end, I simply accepted the damaged flooring because I was tired of dealing with their incompetence. There is dismal communication within the company and most employees are completely incompetent. Avoid this company at all costs!!

I apologize that you are not satisfied with the transaction that took place. When our installer began working on your home he recommended that replacing the existing subfloor would provide a more lasting installation. While we discussed this was not necessary it was presented as an option and agreed upon. The silicone was left until the completion of the project as is normally done last. this particular project was done in more than one stage and has since been taken care of. With respect to your shower fixtures the choice to replace these is unrelated to the tiling installation and this should be researched before hand often people hire a contractor which we can recommend. Each fixture is different and this has nothing to do with our scope of work. I spoke to Paul and our service dept. regarding the installation of your mirror and vanity and while this is not something that is recalled in our conversations or outlined in our itemized contract we would have been happy to help out if you had called.
THe marble flooring was supplied by yourself not our company and is low quality and poorly filled / sealed. We spend additional time and hours to try and make it look as best as possible without any additional charges passed along. We had since offered if there was anything further we could help out with.

Carpet to living room, dinimg room, hallway and curved staircase

We had to replace old carpeting in our house. Part of this job included a very difficult staircase with a curved winder section and the carpet had to go past the spindles and around the exposed tread.

The price of the carpet at Action Flooring was really good and their selection was bigger than some other stores I visited. Also I found their customer service in the store to be pleasant and encouraging. At Paradise Floors I was told that "Wow that staircase is going to be really hard to carpet and I only have one guy that will do it. I'll have to pay him extra to take that on." So I had been feeling discouraged.

But Action's staff said "Don't worry, we do these types of stairs, we have trained people."

And they did. Darcy came and worked through the weekend. He was very dedicated and detail oriented and the carpets look great!

Thank you Action Flooring!

Hardwood flooring

When our dishwasher leaked and damaged the hardwood floors our insurance company recommended Action Flooring to replace most of the hardwood in our home. What fantastic service! The contractors were punctual, knowledgeable, efficient, and neat. The floors were much better than we had even imagined and would more than recommend Action Flooring to future clients.

Carpet

Randi was very helpful in securing the exact carpet that we wanted. Super friendly and really knows her job! We were told carpet was 6 to 10 days away. Calked back a month later to confirm my carpet was in ( took nearly 2 weeks to get a response) it is May 8 and I am now told mid June early July before it's even here and still have to have it installed. Far cry from the 6 to 10 days I was told. If I can't have the carpet by the end of May I'd like my money back ( I had to prepay as well because special order) and pick something else. I planned the Reno around product arriving if I was told June early July I would have started later... Poor communication. I'll keep you posted on the resolution. I gave them a 3 star because they seem knowledgeable and have nice stuff. I just need them to resolve this situation.

I apologize as your order did experience a much longer than anticipated wait time. Our original email communication advised it was a made to order item and that the area rug was in stock however I do believe there was an honest mistunderstanding in this case.
I believe the end result was fabulous based on the pictures
let me know your thoughts?

kitchen flooring

They were supposed to be done our floors within 1 week and it was still not done 4 weeks later. After it was completed we had a tile that cracked and fell off and they never fixed it.

it sounds as though this may have slipped through the crack.
we always look after our warranty even after the standard 1 year has expired. For 30 years we have been offering the best warranty in the business hands down.
if you could please contact me I can arrange for someone to address this whenever is convenient to you.

Lauren has been very helpful in getting us the exact flooring that we wanted. She is patient and willing to work with us in making the home flooring what we want not just what they have in the store. Dale the owner even came out and gave us help for our flooring choices. Great place to go

Flooring Upgrade

We bought a larger home but the flooring had never been upgraded. We were looking at having all of the carpet (more than 1,200 ft2) and the vinyl in the mud-room/laundry replaced. Action did a great job of sourcing the two materials we needed, and getting them installed quickly, before we moved the furniture in. Their installer (can't recall his name) was a perfectionist (as an engineer I appreciate quality) which added a couple of days, but it was worth it.
