I have had a lot of carpet done and I have to say this was the best experience. Rob was very knowledgable and helpful. The installers were professional and neat and clean I am very picky about seams and theirs were perfect. Also had new baseboards. They also were done beautifully. Will never go anywhere else. Great prices as well. Bob's was $1000. less for the same carpet elsewhere. Thanks to this wonderful family owned company.

I want everyone to know that Bob's Affordable Carpet is the best. Price, Service, and quality. The Bond family is truly happy. Not to mention the tile work at each door entrance in our condo was layed to the T and blended in with the carpet. When I walk in our home it looks like a show room plus. Thank You Mr. Bob and your crew. I Hope this review is helpful to those that needs service.

Wonderful service and prices! Had carpets in 4 bedrooms, hallway, stairs and family room replaced. Bob's had great prices on a very good carpet and their installers did a wonderful job. For only $100 extra they moved all of the furniture. Will go back again if need to replace any more carpet and will recommend to others.

We had a great experience with this company. The installers were fabulous, they put the carpet in and power stretched it so it will stay tight forever. The installers know exactly what they were doing, and did the job the right way. I shopped 8 different carpet companies in these were by far the best price and value.
