Flooring Superstore has been a significant player in the flooring industry since its establishment in 2012, and we think this longevity is a testament to its reliability. 

The large samples available in their showroom provide customers with a tangible way to explore their flooring options, making the decision-making process easier. They even offer a free sampling service, delivering up to six product samples to customers.

Unlike other vinyl flooring services, they offer a price match guarantee. If you find the same flooring that’s cheaper, they’ll match it and even knock a further 10% off, providing customers with additional savings.

Moreover, their ability to cut retail costs by up to 50% through bulk purchasing means you can beautify your home without breaking the bank. This is great for those planning large-scale renovations.

In terms of vinyl choices, they have a vast selection of over 5,000, all handpicked for quality and affordability. Meaning, there’s something for everyone. 

Flooring Superstore also shows a strong commitment to charitable endeavours, which we appreciate. They host regular fundraisers for the Prince’s Trust, demonstrating their dedication to giving back to the community.

While Flooring Superstore offers many benefits, it’s worth noting that some customers have reported delivery cancellations on short notice. 

Additionally, their pricing can be slightly higher, starting at £11.99/m² and up. However, we think the quality and variety of their flooring options make it a worthwhile investment for those looking to enhance their living spaces.

Linoland Ltd is another well-known vinyl flooring service in Glasgow. It boasts a spacious warehouse that allows customers to view a wide array of flooring options in person. 

Linoland also offers a free measurement service, which is a considerable time-saver. Accurate measurements are vital so that flooring installations proceed smoothly, without any wastage or additional costs due to incorrect measurements.

They even provide free quotations, giving customers upfront knowledge of the costs involved. 

We think the option to update the entire house simultaneously with Linoland’s full house deals is an attractive proposition. It not only streamlines the renovation process but can also lead to significant cost savings.

Apart from vinyl, Linoland Ltd offers laminate and carpet options. 

We appreciate their competitively priced vinyl, starting at just £8.99/m². This affordability makes it an accessible option for those seeking budget-friendly flooring solutions.

One notable drawback is Linoland’s comparatively limited range of vinyl flooring style options. Customers who desire a broader selection or novelty vinyl designs may find their choices restricted.

We’ve also heard about reports of shoddy workmanship, with flooring coming off within a year of installation. 

Glasgow Flooring & Furnishings is another vinyl flooring provider that’s worth considering. As a family-run business, it strives to provide personalised service and has a focus on building lasting customer relationships. 

We think providing free WiFi in their establishment is a thoughtful touch. It demonstrates an understanding of modern customers’ needs, making the shopping experience more convenient and enjoyable.

Offering free measuring and quotes is also a significant benefit. This service ensures that customers receive accurate assessments of their requirements and costs upfront, aiding in informed decision-making.

Additionally, providing online discounts for vinyl flooring allows customers to conveniently explore cost-effective options from the comfort of their homes.

Offering luxury vinyl flooring options adds a touch of elegance and durability to customers’ choices, catering to various preferences and needs.

In addition to vinyl flooring, Glasgow Flooring & Furnishings extends its offerings to carpets and laminate flooring. This one-stop-shop approach simplifies the home improvement process, providing a wide array of options under one roof.

The inclusion of beds and home appliances in their product range adds further convenience. This makes it easier for customers to furnish and renovate their homes comprehensively.

We appreciate their numerous positive customer testimonials, with one mentioning their great deals and swift delivery of only two days.

However, being closed on Sundays can be an inconvenience for customers who may prefer weekend shopping. 

Also, their narrow range of flooring types might limit the choices available to customers who are undergoing extensive renovations, which may prompt them to look elsewhere.

Another reliable vinyl flooring provider is Tapi Carpets & Floors. Being open all week provides customers with greater flexibility for visiting and shopping, accommodating various schedules.

We think their free home visit is also a valuable service. It allows customers to receive personalised recommendations and measurements without the hassle of visiting the store.

Tapi’s offer of up to 3 free samples from eligible products through their website is a great way to explore and test materials before making a commitment. 

They can even arrange the removal of old flooring and professional installation of the new one within a few days. This turnkey service simplifies the renovation process.

Tapi’s selection of cushioned vinyl flooring provides comfort underfoot and noise reduction, suitable for various rooms, including those with underfloor heating. Not all flooring providers offer this type of vinyl.

Tapi also offers a wide range of luxury vinyl choices, catering to diverse tastes, whether you prefer wood, tile, or Victorian patterns.

In addition to vinyl, Tapi offers carpet, laminate, and engineered wood flooring, ensuring a variety of options.

Do note that Tapi’s products may be priced higher compared to some competitors.

After speaking with their former customers, we heard reports of poor customer service experiences, including rudeness and unhelpfulness from staff. Such encounters can negatively impact the overall shopping experience and need improvement.

With over two decades of experience, First Floors has established itself as a reputable supplier and installer of vinyl flooring for homes, both in Glasgow and beyond. We think this longevity reflects their reliability.

Offering a free home consultation with professional experts is also a commendable service. It ensures customers receive tailored advice and accurate measurements.

Their 4,500 square-foot showroom features a wide collection of flooring from top UK brands, allowing customers to compare options in person. Some of the renowned brands include Abingdon Flooring, Alternative Flooring, Amtico, Boen, and Moduleo.

For those who prefer online shopping, the availability of a virtual showroom offers convenience and accessibility.

We think First Floors’ recognition as Scotland’s Best Flooring Company in 2017 and 2018 at the SIRA Awards underlines its commitment to excellence in the industry.

Being approved members of The Carpet Foundation also signifies their high-quality service. This is because independent surveys affirm customer satisfaction with their purchases from member retailers.

Additionally, their participation in the Giffnock Business Improvement District initiative means that they support local businesses and foster community engagement.

Unlike other vinyl flooring services, they have a price match guarantee against other retail stores. This means possible savings for customers.

Do note, however, that they’re closed on Sundays.

Some customers we’ve spoken to have reported expensive quotes, with one client noting a high quote of £8,500 for 33m². This may raise questions about pricing transparency and affordability.

Lastly, we heard reports of appointment no-shows, which indicate room for improvement in terms of punctuality and customer communication.
