My family has used Tri-City Carpet for carpet and VLP installs at our house. They are very professional, polite, amd helpfull in the office and have really nice install guys that do great, clean work!

Brittany5/5

Had a fantastic experience with Lauren! She was knowledgeable, friendly and listened to my needs. The prices were competitive, and they go my carpet installed in the quick time line that I needed.

Bill5/5

We recently had new carpet installed in all four bedrooms of our home. After visiting several local carpet stores, we chose Tri-City Carpet, and we're so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by Greg Schlaifer, who was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Greg took the time to explain the different carpet options and asked thoughtful questions about our home and lifestyle before making his recommendation. He then arranged for carpet samples to be delivered to our home, making it easy to compare color choices in our own lighting and space.
Once we made our selection, Greg personally came out to take measurements. His estimate was very fair, and the installation was scheduled promptly.
We chose to have Tri-City Carpet move our furniture, and on installation day, Abel and his crew arrived right on time. They carefully disassembled and moved our furniture where necessary and, once the job was complete, reassembled everything and returned it to its exact original location. The crew removed all of the old carpet and padding and installed the new padding and carpet flawlessly. Carrying heavy rolls of carpet up and down the stairs is no easy task, yet they completed the entire installation without leaving a single mark or scratch on our walls. Their workmanship and attention to detail were truly impressive.
The entire process was smooth, stress-free, and professionally handled from start to finish. Greg, Abel, and everyone at Tri-City Carpet exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Tri-City Carpet to anyone looking for outstanding customer service, fair pricing, and exceptional installation quality.

Tyler5/5

Super helpful place. I gave them an opportunity to upsell us on flooring but after hearing our needs they actually talked us down into a more affordable option.

Honest business.

I'll go back to them in the future.

Julie5/5

I've worked on two projects with Lauren Maus and the crew at Tri-City Carpet. Lauren's professionalism is top-tier, and I especially appreciate that she is patient and knowledgeable. The installation went smoothly, and the crew made the process easier.

Vince2/5

Tri City carpet does not supply carpet for Apartment complex's. I asked for an estimate for our complex. I was then asked how many units where here. I said 44 units. He said we do not do estimates for apartment complex's. We only do residential homes.

Reply from the business · Apr 10, 2026

Hi Vince,

Our company does not service multi-family apartment complexes. We do however, service privately owned rentals (such as duplexes, triplexes, etc.). Our staff member was merely clarifying the quantity of units to assess whether we could assist you with your project. I'm not sure why this warranted a negative review. To narrow your search for a company, I would suggest adding "multi-family" to your search. That should whittle down the results and save you some time.

Please feel free to contact me with any other questions.

We've lost count of the number of years we have used Tri City for flooring in our home as well as rental properties! Lauren Maus has been our rep on a number of projects and she's a top professional in her knowledge of flooring, customer service and follow-through. We know we can always depend on her to give us her honest opinion of what may or may not work and why. That's huge when you're trying to make a decision on how to get the best bang for your buck in flooring. The whole Tri-City team is exceptional, including the installers!! We can't recommend them enough!

Lauren5/5

I recently worked with TriCity Carpet in Vista, and I can’t say enough great things about the experience. I’ve purchased flooring from them in the past and have always been impressed. Looking back, I’m SO disappointed that we didn’t use them for the installation as well. After this experience, we will never hesitate to use them for any flooring needs.

Matt helped me with the whole plan to redo the flooring in my mother’s mobile home, which ended up having several unexpected issues. He went above and beyond to help us navigate every obstacle, staying incredibly responsive, proactive, and reassuring throughout the entire process.

He kept our budget in mind and did everything he could to make the project work for us without sacrificing quality. The installation crew was equally impressive, skilled, thorough, and genuinely helpful. They worked efficiently and got the job done much faster than we expected.

The new flooring looks amazing and has made a huge difference in the home. We are extremely pleased with the results and truly grateful for the exceptional service. I highly recommend TriCity Carpet to anyone looking for honest, high-quality flooring work!

Jeff5/5

5-Stars! I highly recommend tricity for all of your carpeting needs!!

The installers arrived promptly and were highly professional. They did an amazing job with my installation, delivering a flawless result. A smooth, stress-free experience from start to finish. I highly recommend TriCity Carpets for their excellent service and quality of work !
