Be sure to have your attorney present…
Be sure to have your attorney present when you sign the 50 page agreement. I specifically asked if an employee would do the carpet installation. The salesman said yes. The installer was a good person but he was a 1099. in Florida, businesses with 4 or less employees don’t carry workman’s comp insurance. Therefore I was liable if the installer got hurt. I was told by the salesman that it would be a two person job and the job would be completed in 3-4 hours. The installer arrived alone at 11:30 am. He was not finished until after 6pm. I knew it would be an all day job so I assumed it would be done by 5pm. I was told by the salesman that the installer would move the furniture. The installer said he expected compensation for moving the furniture. The salesman told me that the installer would take the old carpet . The installer said he would have to be compensated for taking the stained carpet. When I complained to management they kept pointing to the 50 page agreement That I had signed. If I knew about the 50 page agreement I would have had an attorney review the contract. In hindsight I should’ve have not signed anything! If you are planning to get new flooring, keep looking!
