• Shanon Sterrett

Carlisle Wide Plank Specialists work with clients everyday to design beautiful floors but we realize that the end result will only be as good as the professional who installs it.  We recently had customer experience the drama and disappointment of working with an inexperienced installer.  Carlisle prides itself on having great relationships with all our customers so when The Fehrs in New Foundland needed help they called us right away and we called in our team of experienced Carlisle Preferred Installers. 

Find out how a Carlisle Preferred Installer helped out tThe Feht Family and how a preferred installer can help your project.

He claims it was one of his greatest achievements for his home!

Customer “wowed” by her new floor

Karen and Bill from Massachusetts sent an email to their Wide Plank Specialist, Lynne Rafuse, recently to follow up on the recent delivery of their new 6-10" Wide Hickory flooring for their home. 

EMAIL EXCERPT FROM CUSTOMER ~ 

HI Lynne,
We received our flooring, and there is no other word for it but, "WOW", I feel part of New Hampshire has come to Massachusetts, and I could not be happier, thank you so much!  I feel like the flooring is a work of art in itself, I don't think I even want furniture!   I think the floors are enough, but we do have to sit somewhere.

We could not fit it all in our house so we had to have some of it put in the garage, I hope that will not effect it, we have it covered and are monitoring the humiditiy, which has been very low!  I am so excited I cannot wait to see it put down and finished.

There are no words left to say other than thank you Carlisle and thank you Lynne and everyone who helped us and delivered it to us!  Will be in touch with questions when we go to install I am sure!

Karen G and Bill A
