Relating to Mildura FlooringXtra (proprietors: [Name Removed] and [Name Removed]). Some parts of the flooring job were acceptable, but many aspects were very poor. The skirting boards are already peeling away from the walls weeks after installation. The final price more than doubled from the original quote ($19,000 quoted, approximately $42,000… Read more

charged). There was limited transparency regarding how these increases were calculated. The additional costs were introduced at a critical stage of construction, when changing providers was not a practical option, and declining the increase would likely have significantly delayed the project. As a result, I felt I had little realistic choice but to proceed, which felt intentional and calculated in order to manipulate a difficult situation.

Communication was inconsistent. When contact was made, staff were polite enough, but long periods of ignored correspondence were common. Emails and phone calls often went unanswered for weeks or months. I literally had to repeatedly beg, plead, and grovel to get any form of response. Most concerning is that the job remains unfinished. Despite assurances that the outstanding work would be completed, there has been no meaningful follow-through. The most recent weeks of attempts to arrange completion have gone unanswered for months on end, even when I tried to mediate through Flooring Xtra head office.

In my view, this does not meet the expectations of services being delivered with due care and skill under Australian Consumer Law.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this provider. Flooring head office had no success in remediating the situation, which gives the appearance that Mildura Flooring Xtra’s poor performance and behaviour are celebrated internally as a company value.

Would not use again, nor recommend. Had a few quotes for Vinyl Flooring for apartment, & chose [Name Removed] from Tatters Flooring Xtra, as he had v. good reviews; advised grinding, skim coats & acoustic underlay would bring the floor up to cover gaps under skirting & level the floor. The acoustic underlay he also advised as sound proofing for… Read more

apartments. We had the flooring sound tested, & it passed easily at half the cutoff level, so did not need that, plus the flooring did not come anywhere near reaching most of the skirting, so i had to redo most of the skirting. Biggest problem was the flooring was not level. I can see hills & valleys, & had to put padding under some of the furniture. He reluctantly, eventually came back to look at my concerns, & did not see a problem with the leveling. Mind, that would have meant redoing the whole thing, & we had all our furnishings in. He did admit he thought the flooring would come up higher with the skirting. He did agree to fix a couple of minor things & get some spare flooring, and i never saw or heard back. Been a few months now, but i was not surprised. Not happy with the fact that someone with his experience could get it so wrong, then brush it off. I now know i should have gone with one of the other quotes, who gave a different approach to the job. So i am now stuck with something that will always annoy me.

Avoid these people, worst experience I have ever had, disgusting & appalling job, 2 young contractors for what i was told was a 3 day job, ended in 2 weeks & on going after that for a time the floor was not done properly to start with it was not… Read more

leveled, before starting the job, of putting down vinal planks, when job started a plank was cut around a bubble in the skirting board, i was not happy with this & spoke a shop worker who came & looked at it & told her we would fix it, i was told not to hold them up, the pulled up the plank, the contractor came back to that piece to fix it later, some work was done the floor grinded down & some more floor pulled up again not right cement dust everywhere not cleaned up, gear left all through the house & mess, the workers turned up & when I left they skived off some where not here to do the job paid to do, the worker held everyone up while he entertained his un invited girlfriend into my house while laying 1 bedroom floor that took all day, then left leaving cement dust everywhere to be cleaned up & floor washed. I came to the house to find my house was left unlocked all night, my hose left running all night, my garage door left open all night. They had broken a vertical & the whole track had to be replaced, there was glue on the vertical 1 young worker was outside with the vinal planks in a heap turned over face down scraping the glue off on the cement, the was glue on cupboards, skirting boards, glue & dirty hand marks on my beige suede lounge, my polished dining table was scratched, had glue on it & covered in cement dust. The workers grinder & vaccume broke & he ran around trying to get another one most of the day,Their car dropped oil all over the lawn while here for 2 weeks The floor was not sealed the first week, the worker came back following week to seal it. This young worker had said that he wasn't going to make any money out of this job, so obviously he could not care less that my house was uninhabitable & he had inconvenienced me & where i was staying, because of a careless attitude, I was not happy with the floor it was not right so he had to pull up most of 2 bedrooms, all hallway, most of dining & lounge room floor again, more cement dust & floor grinded down in those places, was still very uneven & not right, every day they came & left after me to somewhere else not doing the job they were there for, the floor was left like this all 2nd week with nothing being done & 1 worker left in the house by himself on the last day with other worker nowhere to be seen, when the other worker turned up he said he was now ready to work they the used every piece of flooring, left mess & cement dust all through the house not cleaned up, When floor was finished, vinal planks over lapped, planks not joined together properly with gaps, planks looked old & filthy dirty like down for years, slippery, shiny, all marked, 4 people could not get off what ever was on the flooring including shop owner, worker, rep of company & my self, rep looked at the floor & took photos obviously faulty, entire house floor had to be pulled up again by shop owner & 2 other people took all day to do & regrind to get glue off the floor, more cement dust, pieces taken out of floor where patched to put flooring down. Those places had to be patched again by the next flooring people before work could be done, Everything from beding, cupboard shelfs, furniture & walls had to be cleaned & washed, 12 months on still flooring problems due to floor not being leveled in the first place, shonky work, workers suppose to be their best I had not been able to put my house back together because of the flooring being continuously pulled up & replaced, because of shonky work by previous contractors I had to engage another company to put down more flooring causing me continuing stress & anxiety.i feel like I was used & lied to for his own convenience. Would not recommend these people, shop staff said taking product off the shelf. The young contractor also contracts for himself. Never again, people beware

 Follow-up  · I tried to manage the stress as best way I could as I had a lot of other issues happening at the same time which did not help anything. The most annoying thing was that the contractors did not seem to care that they were inconveniencing me by not doing the job as they were suppose to.The biggest inconvenience was that I had to stay at another… Read more

Terrible customer service – The flooring guys did an ok job on the floor, or so I thought. I paid extra to have the floor levelled in the worst dips (concrete slab, but had some high and low spots). They levelled one corner but didn't bother to level any other spots and now the floor has started to sink in places. I phoned Brett to request they come back to fix it, and he… Read more

refused. He blamed me for not paying for the whole floor to be levelled and said he would charge minimum $400 to come out to fix the spot, but more than likely it would be more than that. He also has a really poor, patronising way of talking to customers. Comes across as a bully. Disgraceful customer service. Never again. I don't normally write reviews, but don't want anyone else to have this happen to them.

Floor Vinyl Product – We have a Quote and signed up for Armstrong Accolade Plus for our floor to match up the rest of house. They then change the vinyl product for shower floor application - foothold. This product is like sandpaper. You can't mop and clean the floor because your mop can't move on this type of vinyl floor. It is Absolutely Devastating after you pay… Read more

Abysmal installation and disgusting treatment by manager/ now owner – Reading these reviews makes me realise that my bad experience with Flooring Xtra stores is not a one off and not just Gladstone. Initial sales service great -girls all lovely and helpful which sold me on them. It all fell apart leading up to, during and after install. Damage to walls and skirtings, no communication, not laid properly, glue… Read more

everywhere, lots of gaps, and then caulked everything to cover there mistakes without permission and I hate the caulking! ( And it is a very dodgy job) Looks horrible and tacky Manager (now new owner) rude, didn’t listen and didn’t rectify as he promised . No offer of compensation for having to live with the horrible look or for all the wasted time waiting and trying to get floors rectified - they had 3 goes at laying the vinyl near bathroom door !! Has been stalling me for months -while ownership changed and now won’t provide details so I can claim compensation from previous owners as he’s claiming he’s not liable - hasn’t bothered to tell me though - QFAT advised so that explains why he has been withholding details . If you buy any of their products do not let them install it. 7 months on and whilst I love the product I still hate the look from the poor install and the whole experience has been dreadful and extremely stressful!

Flooring Xtra were the ultimate professionals in every way! Couldn't be happier and definitely recommend them – My brother and I had the flooring done in our parents kitchen and hallways and right we all couldn't be happier with the service from start to finish. The company was very fabulous, suggesting the best product for us and were extremely knowledgeable and friendly without being pushy. The came to the house and gave us a free measure and quote and… Read more ·  1

then the laying of the floor was very professional and looks fabulous. Our parents are beyond happy with the whole process. Sebachtian who laid the flooring was friendly, professional and very helpful to my parents and did a wonderful job. Everyone we dealt with was extremely helpful and I would highly recommend them.

Flooring Xtra - Rosebud – Having dealt in the past with Rosebud Carpets I went all these years later for a floor upgrade in our rental home in Rosebud. Finding the business under the name Flooring Xtra - Rosebud it was a pleasure to do business with James and his team. In difficult times they fitted in with our schedules and completed the job to our satisfaction and on time. Show details ·  1

Exceptional Service, Quality of flooring and Layed so Professionally – The first time we entered the store we were greeted by Nathan and he’s the reason we bought from the Bundall store. Not pushy at all and listened and laughed. Samples were given to us to take home which Carpet Call wouldn’t do at all. The laying expert that we were provide with was so much of a perfectionist that it took a little longer but the finished product is exceptional

Phillip island cowes store - Either sell at all costs or insufficent training to staff – I specifically asked the sales person if i could lay over particle board and was told it is fine "we do it all the time". After getting the delivery it specifically says do not lay on particle board. I think staff may need to be retrained on product ranges.

Great job with friendly service – Reliable friendly service at Willetton High Road store right from the first visit, to the quick quote and the professional,friendly installation guy. Slight miscommunication in colour but Dave was very understanding and it was an easy fix. We have no hesitation in recommending this store, the lovely service and this wonderful product. Show reply
