Floor Envy was a pleasure to work with. My floors were in horrible condition, Shawn and his crew did an amazing job on my floors. I can't stop looking at them. To be very transparent. I had two other estimates that were a bit cheaper, but I didn't feel assured in hiring them to do the job. After meeting with Shawn there was no doubt with trusting him with my floors, and coming into my home. If you want quality work paying a little extra is worth every penny. If I could give 10 ☆s would!

I could not be happier with the professionalism that I received from Shawn with Floor Envy LLC. He took the time to show me samples, we tried to match the existing carpet and what we picked ended up being discontinued. Shawn took the time to come back out with his samples so we could find another color and it rnded up turning out great. I also had them in stall ceramic tile in the front door entrance. When I explained what I was looking for, he said he had just the thing in his warehouse and he was right. It looks great, especially paired with the new carpet. His installers were professional as well and they did a fantastic job. I would not hesitate to use Floor Envy again or recommend them to friends and family. Sorry I don’t have any of the finished carpet except the big set of stairs. Trust me it looks great! Thanks Shawn.

Floor Envy did an amazing job on our carpetinstallation. Shawn was very responsive and helpful in deciding the best carpet to choose. The price was very reasonable as well. The carpet replacement/installation for our 4 rooms with furniture took only 4-5 hours and looked great. It was wonderful working with them and I would definitely recommend them.

Things could not have gone better or more smoothly. From start to finish, things went perfect. Shawn is very committed to ensure not only did we get a great deal, we had a great team installing our carpet. I would highly reclined Floor Envy to anyone needing carpet. Will definitely use again if the need ever arises. Thank you for a great experience.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I don't believe flooring fits into a "standard" pricing mold. There are so many variables which need to be explored on every project, that one who issues a "standard" price, is not checking all the variables which will affect you during your project. I will offer you the best price, for the best service, fairly and fully disclosing every issue which could affect your flooring investment.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We begin the communication by asking a few questions to determine what types of materials you are looking for. Then we schedule an appointment to show you the samples and measure. We can then provide you with an all inclusive, itemized quote. No hidden fees or charges.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I started in a flooring warehouse as a teen, where I learned the fundamentals of practical flooring applications. I then became a salesman in my 20's, a project manager in my early 30's, and a vice president of a major northern VA flooring company in my late 30's and early 40's. At each step of the way I have learned skills which add up to the experience and longevity needed in flooring to assure you of the best possible result and guidance through your flooring / renovation project. The logical current step is to branch out on my own, and bring my own experience into helping you with your flooring choices. I live local, and I am a family man with roots who will be there before, during, and after your project is completed. I believe in great service, and great products, priced fairly.
