Primary Decision Making Factor - Cost, friendliness of representative
Construction Quality - The work team made the difference. Quality of work was the excellent.
Repeat Business - Provided I have the same work team that installed my slider.
Recognized Excellence - The installers/carpenters.
The owner is really nice. They work pretty fast.
Lead Source - I heard about them through a representative at the Columbia Mall. I don't remember the lady's name, but she was very nice.
Additional Comments - Once they are done, they should tell the customer where the order numbers are located in order to get the warranty. I didn't know that, and it was two different dates and you have 30 days to get the warranty submitted. They were all different numbers and I didn't know exactly where to find them. When they removed the wrapper around the window, the order number is on there and I was lucky enough to see that. I took a picture of the windows and got the numbers put in separately. It should be an easier job to put in the numbers together all at once and submit, rather than separates one. Everything is good. The windows are nice and I am enjoying them. It is a very good product.
Primary Decision Making Factor - I chose Red Carpet because they seemed to be low-pressure.
Recognized Excellence - I'd like to recognize the installation team.
Primary Decision Making Factor - I was impressed that the owner did the initial visit. Price/value ratio was also quite good.
The initial estimate was pleasant as Ken was very responsive to my requests and needs. He worked along with me. The time it took from the initial estimate to work being done was not 100% satisfactory, but it was wintertime. Nevertheless, the work was done to my satisfaction and my wife's as well. We had a large order of 34 windows of varying size, some of them were huge because we have a passive solar home with southern exposure. Surprisingly they completed it in two days' time. The crew that came was professional and they knew what they were doing and were responsive to my requests. I felt like they were on a strict time schedule and they rushed it and as a result, certain things were neglected, such as proper cleaning afterward, which they came at my request a few days later to clean the windows inside and out. They could have been a little more careful in cleaning up the site after the day was done. There was debris left. In general, I am very satisfied with their performance, responsiveness, and quality of the work that was completed. My wife and I love the windows and they look beautiful.
Schedule - There were several factors that prevented the schedule from being on time such as weather and personal scheduling conflicts.
Communication - 4.3 Towards the end, they fixed our communication issues.
Primary Decision Making Factor - Price was the first priority. Secondly, Ken himself. He wanted to genuinely help me with my project of 34 windows to be replaced.
Recognized Excellence - Ken and the installation crew. They were very professional and very responsive to our requests. The lady in Virginia that called me several times was also very responsive to my requests.
Additional Comments - I would say negotiate, come to an agreement ahead of times if you want it done on the weekends, and go for it because they are really a great investment.

Sales and installation was very professional.

This was especially frustrating because the process took longer than we had anticipated.

Absolutely top shelf professionals start to finish! I met the folks at Red Carpet Remodeling at the Olney Farmers Market. We chatted several times and we finally scheduled an estimate. Travis came and spent a good amount of time talking about the process, going up into the attic on a rainy day, and providing samples and several options for shingles. Communication was outstanding start to finish. We had a slight weather delay and some particular requirements within our community, but Jay worked with us to make it work. And it worked. Materials were delivered as scheduled and the crew showed up on a cold January morning to get the job done. It was all really well done and very efficient. Excellent clean up, too. The roof looks great and we are very happy with all aspects of the transaction. Can't say enough good things. Highly recommended!

From beginning through installation and after, everyone I dealt with was exceptional.

I have already recommended Red Carpet to a few friends and clients and will continue to do so. Their services from the first estimate to completion was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had with anyone in the residential construction/remodeling industry. Not only was customer service top notch but the ease at access and completion of final work was quick and high quality!

Primary Decision Making Factor - Local business
Recognized Excellence - Ken
Yes, we had a very positive experience working with Red Carpet Remodeling.
Sales Knowledge - The salesman brought full scale samples, answered all my questions patiently, was knowledgeable about the products and did not try to upsell.
Communication - I was reminded of appointments via telephone calls as well as emails and kept updated throughout.
Problem Resolution - Sebastian who came out to measure for our front door and multiple windows gave sound advice and he customized the installation of an unusual old bay window so the end result is more attractive and superior to the original. One window sash was cracked during shipping and another had a defective energy coating which the installers pointed out to us. I would probably not have noticed the defect. Those two windows were reordered and installed immediately upon delivery.
Other Estimates Received - Red Carpet was well below the most expensive quote we received and not too far above the least expensive. I wanted trained and experienced installers and quality products that would last for many years without problems.
Primary Decision Making Factor - Aside from confirming they had the appropriate licenses and certifications, I was impressed by the salesman. I was provided pictures of finished jobs that were local and multiple references of actual Red Carpet clients that live in my area who had doors and windows recently installed. The three referrals I spoke with were honest and gave me far more detail than I needed. After those rather lengthy conversations I was confident all would be well.
Recognized Excellence - Kudos to the person who has been doing the hiring for Red Carpet. All the Red Carpet employees I dealt with were professional, knowledgeable and personable. Honestly, I got the impression that everyone really likes working for your company and what a difference that makes!
