Just had my coach recarpeted with stain and fade resistant carpet (5 year warrantee). They came to my home, took 8 hours (3 men), and took everything out. New thicker padding, slides work great, best $1800. I ever spent. I live in central Fl. My coach looks and smells new again. Fabulous workmanship, and you pay when your satisfied, no upfront money. Yeop, I'm happy.

Who did the work? Was this a regular flooring and carpet company or someone who specializes in RV work?

This will be good for future references.

Thanks..

I'm also in mid-Florida and would really be interested in pics or a name of your installers. I too am wanting new flooring in my coach. Would appreciate a response.

FYI - We just replaced our crummy tile with Allure (central part of the MH). A great improvement and cost about $800 parts and labor. I supervised and had "Doug ??", a handyman at Woodsmoke (highly recommended park) in Ft. Myers, do the actual work.
He's quite handy for most RV chores (including washing) and his prices are very reasonable (currently $15/hr.)

Just had ours re-carpeted by Eric.
Good job, shows up on time and I'm sure you'll be pleased with the quality. Does exactly what he says he'll do.

I also ended up reflooring our previous RV front to back. New carpet in front, replaced carpet in middle bath area with tile, and replaced carpet in back bedroom with laminate wood floor. It took years off the interior! I did it myself except the carpet and the guy who replaced the carpet said it kicked his butt. It's a small area but there's a bit of a technique to working the carpet. Especially the doghouse! I think that took him most of his time. I will say he stuck with it though and finished the job completely. If you're in TN or North GA and need a name let me know and I'll see if I've got the guys name. I'd recommend him for sure.
