A to Z Construction Contractors and Service Providers: O: Off Price Carpet, San Jose CA

For your next remodeling/construction project, Off Price Carpet in San Jose CA

The Off-Price Carpet Outlet in San Jose is a relatively new find for us. About a year ago I was doing remodeling construction on one of my own personal properties. A contractor we were working with, Jason Saul, recommended Off-Price Carpet Outlet and strongly recommended talking to the owner Stan for some carpeting that we needed in a detached bonus room. While I was contemplating that project, I was concurrently working on helping one of our clients who was buying a townhome for sale in San Jose (a fixer) with their pre move-in remodel. The carpet there was in atrocious condition, but our client was going to be unable to afford new carpet. So Stan at Off Price Carpet recommended to us a contractor for carpet cleaning & repair, Sam Ford, who worked wonders on that carpet. By the time I went into the showroom on San Carlos in San Jose CA I had already been talking to Stan and one of the salespeople, Josh. The showroom is not fancy, but what I like about this place is the opportunity to buy very inexpensive carpet for even large spaces — they have remnants but in big quantities. The selection varies & changes but always includes many neutral options. They carry higher end product, too, but it’s a fantastic gem for getting jobs done inexpensively.

We were selling a house in Palo Alto CA and it needed a new bathroom floor put in. Off Price Carpet came out, measured, and installed inexpensive neutral lineoleum very, very cheaply and without a hitch. Having the neutral carpet installed in the bonus room also went off smoothly, and for a song. Try them out and see what you think for your next remodeling construction project.

A to Z Construction Contractors & Service Providers: I: Interiors & Textiles in Palo Alto CA

Listen up interior designers and anybody who is planning an upscale/high end remodeling construction project on the Peninsula or in Silicon Valley! This store in Palo Alto CA is not to be missed. I found them when looking for a very specific “green” flooring material, which is Marmoleum, a completely eco solution for flooring made of all natural & non-harmful materials. They are one of the valley’s only distributors for this product, and their showroom has many other green materials as well, including carpet. Our Silicon Valley realtor team likes their selection of high end materials, from carpet, to window treatments, to flooring of all types. They even have jute carpet. Their salespeople are actually trained as interior designers so they take great care to make sure you’re pleased with what you order & that it goes with your color palette & surrounding design elements (they will even coordinate with a contractor that you’re using if you want0. The salespeople often come to do the measuring (once, the owner of the shop Fred Wee came to measure!) and they’ll look at the house to make sure your choices will work. We’ve also been pleased with their attention to detail in the ordering process. It’s very much worth a look: Interiors & Textiles, 3960 Fabian Way, Palo Alto CA 650-493-1700
