CUSTOMER STORIES
Imagine stepping into a beautifully designed home. The colors on the walls are perfectly chosen, the furniture is exquisite, and the decor is tasteful. But as you take your first step inside, it's not the striking artwork or the elegant furnishings that capture your attention—it's the flooring beneath your feet. The right flooring can set the tone for an entire living space, creating an ambiance that welcomes, comforts, and enchants. It's more than just a practical surface; it's a canvas for your home's aesthetic and a foundation for its feel.
In the world of interior design, flooring is often considered the unsung hero—the silent contributor that ties a room together, making it more than just four walls and a ceiling. It plays a pivotal role in defining the character and personality of a home, whether it's the warmth of hardwood underfoot, the cozy embrace of plush carpet, or the sleek elegance of polished tiles. The flooring you choose isn't just about practicality; it's a statement of style, a reflection of your tastes, and a key player in the visual and tactile experience of your living space.
Matterhaul had previously assisted a client in procuring new plumbing fixtures for their bathroom remodel, and they turned to us again for guidance on selecting the right flooring. With plans for a major remodel that included replacing all of the interior flooring on the main level and in the bedrooms, they had a rough idea from social media but were uncertain about the material type (hardwood, engineered wood, laminate, vinyl) and how to assess material quality and suppliers.
Leveraging Matterhaul's consulting service, which they had been using as long-time customers to seek expert answers, we assisted them in evaluating the best flooring options for their needs. The client's preference for wide plank flooring (6 inches or more) to match their aesthetic led us to recommend an engineered hardwood solution. They didn't have to worry about quality because Matterhaul had a pre-vetted supplier known for top-quality engineered hardwood.
The supplier presented various wood options to the clients, even offering a full-custom flooring solution if desired. After reviewing the options and testing samples in their home, the clients chose their dream flooring. Matterhaul ensured they ordered the right amount of material (typically 10% overage is recommended) and provided them with a quote.
Upon receiving the quote, the clients visited a few other local stores to explore alternative solutions and compare prices. They found a similar style floor with the same quality characteristics as Matterhaul's supplier but at a staggering 45% higher cost. This significant savings was a game-changer, especially when replacing flooring throughout an entire house.
The client placed the order and coordinated with Matterhaul and the supplier to ensure on-time delivery of the flooring. By leveraging Matterhaul's consulting and brokerage solutions, they not only got the best material for their needs but also secured it at a highly competitive price. Ultimately, working with Matterhaul's team saved them a substantial amount of both time and money, exceeding 45%.
