But our GC made the mistake of assuming that he was going to use Home Depot for the carpet installation. After going to different stores, he decided that he didn't want to deal with the Home Depot guys for carpet. Therefore, he proceeded to call around for carpet installers to come to our site. Out of the four he reached, only one was willing to come out. The rest were on or going on holiday or something.
My Nghe Carpet & Flooring in San Jose on Tully Road -- Chinese guy who does not shy away from work during the holidays.
We had a meeting with the carpet guy today. Turns out that carpet comes from Georgia so we would need to wait 7-10 business days for the carpet to come out. As a result, we moved back our original move-in date by almost 2 weeks. After measuring the rooms, he took our carpet sample (from Home Depot) to his warehouse to see if there was anything similar. If he had carpet in his warehouse, then he could install immediately.
While he went to his warehouse, I picked up DH and headed down to the carpet guy's office. Peak traffic hours = long car ride. He found two carpet samples that were similar in color and pile to our sample but they just were not plush enough to DH's liking. Therefore, we selected new carpeting: Shaw Silken Dreams II in the color 100 Pearl.
