I went through the Costco program that utilizes Great Western Flooring and couldnt be happier. I was connected with Matt Lynch who came out to measure, show carpet samples, and provide the quote. Working with Matt was easy and efficient, he was very accommodating to what we wanted and timing to complete the job. Once we placed our order with Matt he continued to work with us to keep us updated and make sure we met our desired install date. Once the carpet was in, the install was scheduled immediately and for the following week. The installers (Hugo, Javier, and Daniel) showed up on-time and were very professional the entire time. The initial estimate was 2 days to install the carpet but they worked very efficiently and were able to complete the install in a long single day. We appreciated this and couldnt be happier with our new carpet. I would strongly recommend Great Western Flooring to anyone looking for a quality company and people to work with, I will use them for any additional needs.

Joanna at Great Western was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable with our tile search! She took her time explaining the pros and cons of each material to make sure we would be satisfied with our selections. Would definitely return for any flooring needs simply because of her excellent customer service.

BUY YOUR FLOORING FROM GREAT WESTERN!The courtesy, professionalism, design assistance, communication, and patience of each person I dealt with were the best in the business. As a part-time contractor I’ve remodeled several homes and used Floor Decor, The Surface Group, Century Tile and Studio 41 to name just a few…none come close to the service I received from every department. The selection of quality products beats anything I’ve seen and the staff makes me feel like a priority every time. LOVE THIS STORE!! Thank you Dana and Lauren!!

Great Western Flooring was fantastic! I added hardwood floors throughout my second floor. Kate, who helped me select the wood, was knowledgeable and prompt with all communications throughout the process. Installation went exactly as planned both in scheduling and actual install. Wonderful company to work with.

We looked at tons of places for tile for 2 bathrooms were redoing. GWF had the best selection and lots and LOTS of unique accent tile. Joanna was wonderful to work with -- providing expert advice and always helpful. GWF will be our first stop if we ever need to tile anything again. Wish we could give them 10 stars instead of just 5!

From sales to delivery, Great Western Flooring is top notch. Our salesperson LJ, was amazing, she listened, came and measured and provided great customer service. Their communication about the flooring materials was superb, they alerted us that the materials were on back order, when in, they called to set up delivery. Delivery was smooth, they were polite and carried the materials inside and put them where I wanted! I highly recommend Great Western Flooring, awesome experience!

Julie McCaffrey out of the St Charles location was excellent! She was able to work around my schedule, get the information she needed and get a quote to me very quickly. She helped me plan my project and picked out great carpeting for my bedrooms. It looked great! She even helped me pick out a color for my walls that complimented the carpet. Installation was great - again working around my busy schedule. My rooms look great and I have Julie and the rest of the Great Western Flooring Co to thank! Thank you!!!

Great scheduling and customer service by Van. The installation was the opposite. Guy came to measure before I ordered. They ran out of flooring! I had to wait for more to come in, delaying my move in. Also, I asked for wood floor vents to match and they never made it into the order. They Left huge long baseboards (which were supposed to be left off) with nails all over them in my master bath, so I couldn’t use that bathroom and I couldn’t carry them out myself. Disappointing experience all the way around.

Even during the time of COVID, I received amazing service. I love the new carpeting. The sales person was very informative and, while we never met, he was very responsive to my many changes in the order. The installer were thorough, experienced, respectful of safety procedures and nice. Great experience, great carpet, great price.

The team at Great Western Flooring made the process of getting new carpet so easy for us. Our salesperson, Kate, came to our home with samples and helped us choose what would work best for our home. They were prompt in scheduling our installation, and kept in touch throughout the process. The installation team was courteous, worked efficiently, and cleaned up thoroughly when they were finished.

I am so excited about my new floors throughout my house! We needed to update all our flooring in our home. I have no talent in making decorating decisions so I met with Laurie at Great Western Flooring and she started by getting to know me, our flooring needs and our lifestyle. She made a number of suggestions and coordinated hardwood, tile and carpeting that looked great together. She went the extra mile to be sure we were happy with our choices and kept in touch with us throughout the entire project! She was as excited about our project as we were! Everyone at Great Western Flooring was very professional and worked very hard to ensure the products were delivered on time. Van went above and beyond to meet our specific scheduling needs. During this challenging time in our world it is refreshing to be able to thank Great Western Flooring for the positive experience I have had with them and compliment them on their products, talented employees and dependable service.

It was a tight schedule to get the carpeting laid for my new tenant, but the guys at great Western went out of their way to move the date so that we all had a little breathing room.

We had a great experience with Great Western Flooring from the time we walked into to their Naperville Showroom. Kate was very helpful and showed us carpets we really liked. The install was a bit delayed because the carpet we picked, was not delivered to the warehouse on time, but after waiting a few days, it was delivered, and installed. The installers were very polite, worked very hard, and they were fast! Our entire house was completed in two days..They moved all furniture, then put it all back exactly where it had been. We love the new carpet.... Thanks Great Western for a job well done!

My husband and myself contacted through Costco to receive a consultation for flooring in our home. Gerarde Hutson came to our house a few days later. I would describe Gerade as the best kind of salesman. He took time to find out what are needs were, knew everything about his product and the installation process and was not pushy or high pressure. We appreciated his low key, unhurried approach to everything. I would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for flooring!

Kimberly from Great Western Flooring assisted us with the selection of hardwood flooring for our home. Kimberly was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. We had an issue where we wanted to refinish a portion of existing hardwood flooring and install new hardwood directly next to it. We had four vendors tell us in could not be done. Only Kimberly from Great Western Flooring was able to devise a plan. Their very professional install team expertly matched the existing flooring to the new flooring. Extremely pleased with the customer service, installation process and results.

@Kim Holt offered to assist us immediately. Kim was extremely knowledgeable & GWF has tons of options to touch and see in their showroom. The sheer quantity of tile options would have been overwhelming elsewhere however, @GWF the layout of the products, the efficiency of their staff along with the wealth of knowledge all made for a very favorable experience. We had all of our tiles, grout and caulk for our complete bathroom remodel chosen in an hour. Hands down we will recommend GWF for all your flooring needs.

We are so obsessed with our floors and get compliments any time we have someone over. Dana did an awesome consultation with us where she really took our style into account and gave us some great recommendations that we never would have thought of, and for a very reasonable price. The installation was quick, though there was one little area that seemed uneven. Dana came out to personally inspect it and while there wasnt much that could be done to fix it (it was just how our floors sat), I appreciated that they took the time to investigate.

I am a designer and I work with Great Western Flooring a lot. I send all of my clients there and I have found that they have the best selection, competitive pricing and excellent customer service. I always work with LJ, whom I absolutely adore! She is responsive to my needs and treats my clients as she would treat her own. I love that I can feel confident sending my clients in there without me and know that they will be well taken care of. In fact, every single person at the Naperville showroom is fantastic to work with. I spend a lot of time there and they always treat me with respect and are eager to help me out if LJ happens to be unavailable. It is a great team atmosphere and it is a big reason I keep coming back. I have searched through many tile showrooms but I really feel like the selection is the best here. Plus, the new showroom is set up very well so it makes it easy to find what Im looking for. Honestly, you just cant go wrong! Keep up the great work ladies!!

I bought Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVF) and quartz contertops from Great Western Flooring Co. The LVF quotation process provided by Gerade was detailed and transparent. Marcos LVF installation team was industrious and professional. MY LVF experience was 5 stars. I enjoy my Cambria quartz countertops from Great Western Flooring, but the quotation and installation process was complicated with the use of Great Western Floorings countertop installation contractor. The communication wasnt clear upfront what the installation charges were to have my old countertop removed, that I had to sign a waiver for not moving my stove before the new countertops were installed, and that I had to schedule a plumber to install my new kitchen sink faucet and reinstall my garbage disposal. My countertop experience was 3 stars.

We needed a runner for our hardwood stairs because we kept slipping and falling. I was so nervous about picking a pattern because most carpets are gaudy, traditional style. Lauren and Shay set aside a ton of samples for me at the Naperville store to look at and even let me bring them home for a few days to hem and haw over. Im in love with the pattern we ended up choosing because it’s simple, trendy, yet timeless! The measurement process was quick and easy - Shay came to our home and was done in 15 minutes, and even took the carpet samples back to the store for us. Installation was also very painless; they were done in about 2 hours and left the unused material for us, which Lauren offered to turn into a matching area rug. Thank you for curing our FOBO, GWF!

Review №85

Totally disappointed and wont be back.Went to GW at request of our remodeler despite a couple of previous encounters where GWs sales reps were disappointing. Well, this time was no different. I initially called the rep our builder suggested - left a message and two days later no response from her. So, contacted the other sales rep - LJ - and was able to set up an appointment. Without any hesitation we selected the tile we wanted and clearly laid out our needs. We didnt set a price limit nor any restrictions but rather selected tile we liked. In total, we were in the store about 15 minutes and finalized our order. So this was probably the easiest sale GW had made in a while. After our visit no follow up from GW. As we were finalizing details with our remodeler I asked about tile status - they had heard nothing from GW. This was 45 days after our visit. Our remodeler contacted GW to find out where things were at and finalize the order. Apparently nothing had been done until then because we received a call from LJ after our remodeler had contacted her. She called to let us know that the tile we selected could not be used for the purpose we specd out and that wed have to select another tile. 45 Days later! The explanation was that the display board did not contain specific enough information so LJ didnt know it wouldnt work. Unbelievable. After clearly laying out what we needed and timeline, GW let things go until they were contacted again and at that time did what should have been done initially, and requested by us, verify availability and functionality. Poor, poor customer service. We will not be buying our tile from GW and wont be back.

In the last few years, my husband and I have taken on some pretty major DIY projects to update our 33 year old home. All of the original flooring and tile in our home, which had withheld the test of time while raising 4 children, was from GWF. It was a no-brainer for us to check them out once again, and we are so happy we did! Lauren, Dana and Brianna were not only knowledgable, professional, and full of great ideas, but they were also very patient, fun and delightful to work with! They absolutely took the stress away from us and gave us the confidence we were making good decisions along the way. We are so pleased with the end results....if we live another 30 years (haha), we will be reaching out to GWF again! :)

Price for the product is fair and that is the only thing about this company that is fair. Their sales people are frauds, their team does not speak english so you cannot communicate with them. They bully you into additional fees once the work begins. They are never timely with their jobs as to when they start their day or when they will finish the project. Please stay away from this chain and do not buy into it b/c they are associated with Costco. Costco has made a grave mistake associating themselves with a company run simply for profits and no customer service.

Review №89

One of the ABSOLUTE WORSE experiences we have ever had. Sales rep dropped the ball BIG TIME and we ended up paying the price by having our house in disarray for upwards to 9 weeks. No mention was made about vent covers to match the flooring until the day we went in to sign the contract. Got prices, discussed it and made the decision we wanted to go with flush mounted vents before we even left the store. We were told they would just add it as an addendum to the contract. We left and never thought much more about it, figuring that they would take care of it. We just thought about the work ahead of packing up dishes and all kinds of other stuff that was in cabinets in the 4 rooms and where the heck it was all going to go. About 3 or so weeks later they contacted us with an installation date. Installation was to take 3 – 4 days. All was OK except we found out the vents hadn’t come in. Later we found out they hadn’t even been ordered. The crew that installed the flooring did an OK job but they didn’t speak, let alone understand, more than a couple of words of English. And there didn’t seem to be anyone in charge of the group. We asked them at one point about removing a unit that was in a closet as we hadn’t gotten around to doing it ourselves beforehand. They said they would take care of it. Well later on we looked and found carpet fibers near it and removed the unit ourselves, which we would have done if they hadn’t said they would do it, and found that they didn’t install the flooring under it but left the carpeting. They had to redo a good half of the closet to make it right. We didn’t find out that the vents hadn’t even been ordered for over a week later. Sales rep said she needed to measure for them. Personally, I would have thought that vents would have been on their punch list to quote for immediately and then the customer could decide if they wanted the added expense or not. Anyway, she never asked about the vents to start with and then blames us claiming they were inaccessible. Which was a lie, had she ever asked I would have pointed them out if she didn’t see them herself. Anyway it took yet another week or so before she gets here to measure. Then she tells us we can’t have flush mounted vents since the flooring was down. We were about to tell her to rip it up at their expense because she was told what we wanted and if she knew this was a problem then the vents should have been ordered and the installation delayed until they came in. But no. A manager stepped in at this point and said they could be done BUT it would be harder to do and she would have to find the right person to do it. Vents were to take up to 10 BUSINESS days to be made and then shipped to the store (roughly 3 weeks). Took another week before they made an appointment to install them – person never showed up. Wasted my day when I had to wait on someone else to come later in the day. They told us that the vents didn’t fit. Based on what we heard of their conversation in Spanish, it sounded like they didn’t have a clue how to install them. They apparently thought they were drop in vents. We looked at the color and it didn’t match at all. So it took another couple of weeks for them to fix the vents in house to match the flooring and then send someone to install them. The person sent was very rude to us and scratched up freshly painted walls. When we told GW they blew it off. For what we were spending on the flooring I would have expected a better service and response from them. We still have three bedrooms and a hallway to be done and guess what, it won’t be Great Western getting the business. this all started in May and finally got finished in either late Aug or early Sept. Its going to take a year to get things back to normal.

As the installers of Great Western Flooring were installing over $5,000 of new carpeting in my home, they damaged my 2-week old newly refinished wood floor with a deep 4-foot scratch and also dented a wooden door. GWF accepted the responsibility; but the damage was severe as the repair did not remove the scratch. GWF was aware the scratch was deep and a repair may not be sufficient. They ignored any further assistance stating they did their best.Here is their verbatim: “At the end of the day, we always do our best to make the remodeling process as seamless and enjoyable as we can for our customers. However, in virtually all cases, they experience inconvenience that is sometimes preventable, but often times not. Either way, inconvenience is part of any remodeling job.”So do you want them in your home to do damage and walk away stating it’s just an inconvenience to be expected during remodeling?

Review №95

This is for the Oswego GWF location: Had laminate floor installed. Poor sales support: (1) salesperson forgot to include extra molding for new floor area so installers did not have it when they showed up, so...they had to schedule another installer to come back approximately 2 weeks later and I had to miss work again. (2) salesperson did not explain or give us options for door thresholds - they were going to install quarter round which looked ugly; I wanted threshold similar to floor-carpet interface. So...they had to order that for the other installer. (3) salesperson did not mention when we ordered flooring that we were to supply stain and finish for the molding - it was on one of the notes in the invoice as CS - customer supplied. So...I had to run to Menards for some stain and finish while the installer was there waiting. Now: GWF knows what color I have and should know what matches and what does not and they could finish it beforehand and have it ready to install, but noooo...they want me to match it and have only myself to blame if it doesnt. Plus the installer has to wait for it to dry before installing! I think this is very poor service on their part. On the plus side, the flooring is nice and all of the installers were very nice and professional.
