Why Buying from Perry Floors Beats Online Sellers and Unlicensed Contractors and handyman
In today’s digital world, it’s tempting to buy flooring online or work with a handyman who offers a cheap deal. But when it comes to quality, warranty protection, and long-term reliability, nothing beats working with an established, local business like Perry Floors—a company with over 30 years of experience and direct partnerships with top flooring manufacturers.
The Risks of Buying Flooring Online or Using Unlicensed Contractors
1. No Manufacturer Warranty
Many online sellers and unlicensed contractors source flooring from unauthorized distributors. That means if something goes wrong—like warping, delamination, or faulty locking systems—the manufacturer won’t honor the warranty. When you buy through Perry Floors, your purchase is backed by legitimate manufacturer warranties, ensuring your investment is protected.
2. No Local Support When Issues Arise
Online retailers and fly-by-night contractors disappear once they’ve made the sale. If your flooring arrives damaged, doesn’t match the description, or starts failing after installation, who do you call? Perry Floors stands by its products and will work with manufacturers to resolve any issues.
3. Flooring Installation Matters
Flooring isn’t just about the product—it’s also about the installation. Unlicensed contractors may lack the expertise to properly level subfloors check for moisture, leading to costly problems down the road.
At Perry Floors, we use licensed contractors who have worked with us for years, ensuring your installation is done correctly and according to manufacturer guidelines.
4. Labor Warranty for Peace of Mind
Unlike handymen or unlicensed contractors who disappear after the job, Perry Floors provides a labor warranty on installations. Our experienced installers take pride in their work, and if any issues arise due to installation, we stand behind it.
5. Hidden Costs with Online Flooring
That “cheap” flooring price you see online often doesn’t include:
- Shipping fees (which can be high due to weight)
- Damage during transit (good luck getting a refund)
- Extra materials needed for proper installation (underlayment, adhesives, trims, etc.)
At Perry Floors, you get transparent pricing, expert advice, and the right materials for your specific needs.
