    Lumber Liquidators LL Flooring Installation Review - Buyer Beware. On November 27th, 2022, we had Lumber Liquidators install new flooring in our home. Following their instructions, we brought the flooring inside to acclimate on October 16th, 2022, and removed all furniture from the rooms on October 28th, 2022, in preparation for the floating floor installation. Unfortunately, just one year later, we are experiencing significant problems with the flooring. The floor has separated in multiple areas, and in one spot, it has chipped and broken apart quite severely. We had a contractor assess the damage, and the repair cost for just one of the damaged areas is estimated to be thousands of dollars.

    I have absolutely no confidence in the installers Lumber Liquidators uses. Despite the clear issues, Lumber Liquidators has evaded responsibility, passing the blame onto others. I was told they are not liable for the problems. Based on this experience, I do not recommend using Lumber Liquidators for flooring installation. Furthermore, given their evasive behavior and unwillingness to take ownership of the poor installation, I would not even purchase flooring from them again. It's clear they do not adequately oversee the quality of work performed by their contracted installers. This experience is a prime example of "buyer beware." Everything may seem fine initially, but be prepared for potential problems down the road, especially after the one-year mark. Our floor looked great until it started falling apart. I strongly advise potential customers to consider other options.

    We opened an account through LL Flooring to have our floors done. They declared bankruptcy, never delivered the floors, and did not give us our money back. They then rebranded as a new company and continue to sell their floors. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! They cannot be trusted!

    We hired LL Flooring to do an install in our kitchen, living room, laundry room, and one of our bathrooms as part of our home renovation. We had thought since they had decent reviews that they would do a good job and stand behind their work. We were wrong. The first issue was the crew they hired to do this. We were called shortly before and notified that the crew would not be able to speak English but there would be at least one person on the crew who could communicate with us somewhat. This in itself wouldn't have been a huge deal but it meant that they just didn't communicate with us at all during the process so we ended up with things like large gaps in front of the baseboards rather than being asked if we wanted to remove the baseboards, a diagonal transition between the laundry room and kitchen, etc.

    The main issue however manifested after the install. We had paid quite a large sum to have this work done as when I had done it in the past myself I ended up with gaps. Gaps are what I ended up with this time too, but at least there was a reputable company who would handle this right? Wrong. The first warranty request was a nightmare, I had to argue with them that I would not be providing extra flooring for them to fix their mistake (turns out LL Flooring decided to send the same crew back). Finally they agreed to provide the extra flooring to correct the mistake but they didn't correct it. After failing to figure out a way to make the floor gap free, they just put putty in it and seemed confused as to why I did not consider this acceptable. I argued with someone on the phone for some time who tried to assure me it would look fine after awhile and that I should just sign that the work was completed to my satisfaction.

    I ended up refusing to sign that and they went on their way. Fast forward to several months back. I attempted to do another warranty claim and this time LL Flooring just stopped replying to me after I sent in the pictures of the issues. These weren't just minor issues, some of the flooring against the tub in the bathroom was at a forty-five degree angle now rather than flat against the floor! After reaching out a number of times to the people who had emailed me asking for more photos and getting no response we have given up. We will just have to live with these issues and warn others that while the products themselves may be ok (won't know for a couple of years about that) that they should find another company to do business with as the install and warranty process are abysmal.

    LL Flooring has the worst customer service. I was not contacted until I filed a second complaint. And three months later still no contact. The contractor they sent damaged my walls and did not order the right amount of flooring even though I repeatedly told them what to measure.

    This company does not stand behind flooring and labor covered under warranty. Now, since it has been about 3 months since filing our claim, we are now told the company has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, which is about a 10k lesson learned for us.

    The floor was installed in 2022. We immediately had problems. The planks warped, bowed, and came apart. The top of the planks separated from the base. The installer has returned twice, but the problems only got worse. LL Flooring continues to delay and is now saying the warranty period has passed. They lied about trying to reach us along with other lies about the warranty. Learn from our misfortune.

    Maybe a year ago we had LL Flooring to do a job for us on the kitchen floor. The results were horrible from the start. They said that the floor was not level but they could handle it with some of the products they use. Long story short, upon completion of installation gaps started to appear and when we complained they sent someone out to replace the boards. The gist of the conversation that I had with the installer was that this product would not hold up to wheelchairs. Evidently, this is true because the flooring did not hold up in high-traffic areas such as in front of the stove and sink which is where the photos in this review were taken.

    No warranty that will do anyone any good. Put the floors in during Covid shut downs in 2020 and tried a warranty about a year later when the flooring was coming apart and cracking and they claimed it was performing up to their standards. Now in 2024 the whole thing has to be replaced and the company has no solution. It appears we were sold the wrong underlayment and this caused the thin planks to give and Crack. Now we have a huge replacement and cost to figure out. These floors are sold as is. Buyer beware. They do not stand by their products.

    The installation of our LL Flooring was good. But the installers didn't speak English well. He used the translator app on his phone, which was fine. They worked really fast. I was pleased with the way they worked and did their job. They were done within a few hours. However, the end cap, that's the transition from the plank to the carpet that's in the hallway. It came bent. But that was my only complaint and when they put it in, it still stayed bent a little bit. I ended up having to put books on top of it, which helped a little bit. But I can still notice. Probably somebody who didn't know it was bent wouldn't notice, but I noticed it. But I got the Shoreway and it's a great color. It's not too red. I didn't want it red or yellow. It's a good color and it looks like wood. Hopefully, it'll wear well.

    We used them for carpet and it's been a bad experience. The installation left us with a seam 4" into the hall instead of where the room meets the hall and the carpet is going in the wrong direction. I called and asked them to please come out and look at the carpet, I sent pictures. After several back-and-forths, they sent out the people who did the installation, a contracted group, and their answer was to stretch the seam.

    Now it's been a few months, and we never heard back from them, and the carpet is of the lowest quality. With normal use, it is already staining and needs to be professionally cleaned, and from day one, it had a musty old smell. When I asked the installer if they thought the carpet was going in the right direction, that person said that's what the direction said. It seems to me LL Flooring is subcontracting our business to the cheapest labor they can find. Also, we received a bankruptcy letter regarding LL Flooring so why is their rating still so good... The guys I spoke with on the phone were nice enough, but it was always someone else who made the decisions. All I can say is beware of where you find your ratings.

    I got vinyl flooring from LL and I did the installation myself. It was at a good price. It's just I didn't get the right stuff that I purchased. So, if I could have gotten the right stuff I purchased, it would have been a lot better. When I got to the store, they didn't even have the product I ordered and they didn't know where it went. So, I had to go back. Then they gave me something that was totally different than what I ordered. But because I had already loaded it up, I just kept it because I wasn't gonna reload up some odd boxes and take back in my minivan. They had already discounted it prior because it was on a clearance. So, it was already discounted, but they didn't offer me any further discount than what it was already on clearance.

    I'd tell others to go to Carpet One or somewhere else. The people at LL were extremely nice, and the guy that was helping me the initial time was very nice. It was just the quality. I was gonna return the product and they're going out of business up here, so I didn't return it. I offered to take it back, but I didn't really want to because I don't wanna deal with it in my cost. They said that they didn't have anybody in the town to deliver. So, they didn't offer me delivery. So, I loaded it up in my minivan and my husband's Kia and we took it home. So, I did ask if they wanted to return it that way and they could figure out how to get it back. I would have done that. But past that, they didn't want to and I wasn't going to load it back up in my car. So, I just kept it.

    I originally talked to the LL Flooring location in Riverhead about a flooring that I wanted and they took a long time to get back to me. Then, when said they had it for me, they said that it was sold out. They're perfectly nice people, but they weren't able to get my order done. So, I called the Astoria location. They found it for me in another state and arranged shipping. They went above and beyond. They did everything so quickly, beautifully, and efficiently. They also followed up every step of the way and there was really great communication. And any obstacles, they solved. I love the Astoria location and I would work with them any time I need new flooring. They were really easy to work with and Shaf, the rep who answers the phone, was so helpful. I got vinyl flooring and I like it. But it seems a tiny bit soft and I wish it was a little harder. Other than that, the installation team was excellent.

    Do not touch this company, they have a very bad overall reputation. We bought $13,000 worth of flooring from the Brighton store. Within 2 weeks it started warping and creaking, The installers tried to repair it by firing tons of unsightly nails into it. It got worse. The installers eventually concluded that the flooring material was defective and would report this to LL Flooring. Then there was a journey of stalling, passing between departments, sending videos, snapshots of my nest showing that I never went over 50% humidity for a whole year. Etc. Etc. No real review of the data I sent occurred, just a standard answer "it must be the humidity". I proved it wasn't.

    I am about sure the company when they went chapter 11 in August 2024. This allows the company to downsize 94 out of 300 stores but continue it's dishonorable business practices. Also, not pay their creditors and screw all customers out of warranty. The company will still be the same after chapter 11, my advice, stay well clear of this company. Research them, they have a history of not honoring their warranties.

    I was looking for a particular flooring. I bought a new house and the flooring that's already here is an LL floor and I wanted to complete it. But when I bought the floor and had it picked up, it wasn't the right one I thought it was. I sent it back, and LL Flooring took it back without a problem. I had to find out from the previous homeowners what flooring it was but LL said they no longer carried that flooring. The young lady told me that she would check to find out where it was and she did. She called me back in a day or two and found out that the flooring was in another store and that they had enough flooring for me, which was perfect because I thought I was gonna have to change the whole floor. She went out of her way to find that so I was very pleased with the whole process.

    The quality of the flooring is excellent. I originally thought I would switch to wood flooring because that's what I had in my previous home and part of it was a Lumber Liquidators floor. I had Brazilian cherry and really loved it. But this floor is such a nice high-quality vinyl and it's easy maintenance. I love the coloring. It's unusual so I was so happy to find it.
