Here are carpet and rug and flooring stores that we have visited and
recommend for their best buys and deals and bargains, and of course excellent service. Some of these stores sell closeouts
and liquidations and generally discounted brand new carpet and rugs. You'll find a lot of lower prices because of the
slow economy, so do shop around.

A-1 CARPET MARKET
GIVES FULL SERVICE, MORE VALUE
I
was very impressed when I met the owner of the chain of A-1 Carpet Market flooring stores because he told me some of the "dirty
secrets" of the carpet business. The main dirty secret is that some carpet stores will sell you more carpeting
than you really need to get the job done. The second dirty secret is that the installers don't do the job right leaving
you with seams in the wrong places. And the third dirty secret is that you can buy superior carpet for what many stores
price carpets with lower quality.
The
A-1 Carpet Market stores also discount hardwood flooring and laminate flooring, ceramic and porcelain and granite tiling,
granite for countertops and all of the installations are handled by their own crews and not by outside contractors.
There are other companies with look-alike names, but the true A-1 Carpet Market stores have been in business since 1983.
You can call for a free estimate. The Cerritos store is at (562) 402-8017; the Thousand Oaks store is at (805) 497-8575;
and the San Dimas store is at (909) 394-9051. Watch the video report below.
LOOKING FOR REMNANTS
AND OVERSTOCK OF INDUSTRIAL CARPET?
Eco
Trader in Van Nuys sells carpet remnants and overstock of industrial carpet. More information about Eco Trader including
contact info can be found on our "Home Improvement / Building Supplies" page. And watch our reports below
specifically about their high quality carpet remnants which came from distributors who provided carpet to businesses including
hotels and casino, and housing developers.
CARPET MANUFACTURERS WAREHOUSE IN COMMERCE
I've been recommending Carpet Manufacturers Warehouse for several years and first reported about their best buys
when I was reporting Best Deals for KCAL-TV a few years ago. This is a true outlet and liquidator. It gets over
production from carpet factories and wholesalers and also gets carpet with slight flaws, what are called "seconds."
But many times the "flaws" are hard to spot and these discounted, bargain carpets can be perfect for your home.
The seconds might have been caused by a change in the design, or a change in the color -- but if you don't mind these changes
from the original factory designs, then these can be perfect deals for you. Be sure you go to their web site for other
deals on padding and discount coupons and a free gas card offer. Carpet Manufacturers Warehouse is at 6111 East Randolph
Street, Commerce. Call them at (323) 888-2424 or go to their web site for the extra deals and more information at www.carpetmfgwhse.net . Click to start the video below.
