Jim and Colleen Woodcock found Carlisle Wide Plank Floors through our Washington D.C. showroom and sales consultant Janel Conforti there. The Woodcocks were set to install a new floor in a game room they were creating out of what was once unused space in their home. These customers turned out to be very happy with their new floor and they made a special trip back to the Washington D.C. showroom to drop off some samples so that our staff there could show them to potential customers.
The Woodcocks had ordered 525 square feet of Carlisle’s prefinished Hickory, in 5- to 10-inch widths. At first, when the floor was delivered to their home, they were quite concerned that not enough boards had been delivered. Turned out, it was fine! The installers who did the job know just what they’re doing to fit the floor with very little waste.
Jim reports, “One guy put down the glue, one guy sawed, selected and set the pieces, and the third hammered them tight and then stapled them. It must be nice for them to work with such quality product. They swiped your big catalog so with luck they may give you some future customers.”
After four months, from conception of the project to its completion with the addition of the two “retro” chairs you see in the photos, the floor is ready and being used.
Jim wrote, “And of course it looks breathtakingly FANTASTIC. The trim has not been purchased yet but the vents are so cool. We are in hog heaven walking around with big smiles.”
