What Our Customers Are Saying
Casey W
Couldn't ask for a better experience. Gloria was our salesperson and she did a great job helping us find what we needed. Her measurements and waste estimates were more accurate than any other quote. When we found the perfect flooring, but it was out of our price range, she helped us find a close second for way cheaper. Her communication was prompt and helpful. Pick up of the flooring was local and easy. Would recommend 10/10
Nerissa N
We needed a very specific size rug for our sun room. Heather and her team were able to cut carpet to our needed size and finish edges to perfection. Great customer service!
Jason N
We have used Carefree Carpets several times of the last 3-4 years. Every time we keep coming back because of their great pricing, fantastic service (shout out to Heather in the office! She is AMAZING!), and great customer experience. We will continue to use Carefree for our flooring needs for years to come!

Shane T
Choosing Carefree was the best decision for our needs. We went to several different companies and they by far had the most cost effective product and our rep, Gloria was amazing! She was able to answer all my questions and even brought samples to my home. She was a true joy to work with.
