Larry Menz worked tirelessly with me for the past seven months searching for just the right carpet quality and color for three bedrooms in my home. Larry was always positive and provided me with samples, suggestions and new products as they arrived. I'm thrilled with the final product, price and quality. Larry heard and delivered my concerns to the instillation team regarding newly painted rooms and the moving of furniture. The instillation went smoothly. Larry's continued support and success of the project warrants five sta... read more

I had a great experience with the purchase and installation of my flooring. When I was at the showroom there wasn't any pressure to make a purchase which was lovely! Cary went over our flooring needs and honestly helped us make the best choice. Jake did our installation and I've gotten tons of compliments on his work!

We chose Universal for the flooring in our new finished basement. We had ceramic tile in the bathroom and bar area, vinyl in the workout room and carpet in the remaining area. We are extremely pleased with the quality and workmanship for all of it. Cary helped with with the carpet and tile decisions. We highly recommend Universal Capet.

I contacted Larry Mentz with an unusual request - that a very large (11X24) area rug be cut and bound for me. I wanted a very thick, "cushiony" rug because of my foot and leg problems, and Larry took a great deal of time both in my home, and in the store, in picking out the right kind of carpet for me, the best kind of pad, and just the right color. He let me take home large samples from the store, and ordered additional samples, which was a huge help in matching colors and judging the thickness on my floors. I'm a pretty hi... read more

I met Cary from Universal Carpet as a result of a basement renovation project. I laughed when he told me he was referred to as the "Vinyl King." I ended up ordering a Karndean vinyl product that looks just like wood plank flooring. It was installed by Joe who did an amazing job--I am 100% pleased with Universal Carpet. Thank you Cary & Joe!

We are very happy with our laminate flooring and our new carpet. Quality is great and the price beat all competitors. Installation went smoothly with expert installers. Couldn't be more pleased. Thank you!

Universal did both a tile and a carpet install for us. Both look fantastic. The installers were very professional and friendly, and Cary was great to work with. I will definitely use them for any future jobs. I highly recommend Universal!

When we decided to get new carpet for our dining room, living room, stairs and hall way we looked at several different places. We had an idea what we were looking for and Larry, from UNIVERSAL CARPETS, went out of his way to help us find the color, style, texture and price range we were looking at. He was extremely patient and courteous, while still being very professional. He worked at getting us the best price possible. The installers came yesterday and laid our carpet. I was a bit skeptical when they showed up as they wer... read more

I have used Universal Carpet and worked with owner Cary Saar on two different occasions.The workmanship and service is impeccable. I bought carpeting both times about 3 years apart, and I noticed it was the same 2 guys doing the install. They did a fantastic job each time and even touched up an area that wasn't their product. They moved furniture and even took away the old carpet. I had an estimate from Empire Carpet but was not happy with their sales techniques of starting high and seeing what price they can gouge me with. ... read more
