Editorial Review
Our Take on Bay Carpet
Bay Carpet is the most complete one-stop shop on this list, with more than four decades of family ownership and a near-perfect review record at high volume. Its strength is carpet, stairs and mixed floors, not specialty hardwood refinishing.
Best forCarpet, stair runners and mixed-floor homes
What We Like
- Family-owned in Glendale, Queens since 1983
- BBB accredited since 1996 with an A+ rating
- Carpet, hardwood, laminate, tile and vinyl under one roof
- Free shop-at-home visits with samples brought to the house
- Financing application, commercial work and marine carpet offered
Things to Consider
- Its site says the showroom opens Sundays while Google lists Sunday closed, so call before visiting.
- Hardwood sanding and refinishing is not its stated focus, so a refinishing specialist may suit that job better.
- The listing shows one showroom in Queens with no named owner or team page, so ask who will run your job.

Company Background
About Bay Carpet
Bay Carpet has sold flooring out of Glendale, Queens since 1983, and the same family still owns it. The showroom sits at 65-04 Myrtle Avenue, close to the Queens and Brooklyn border, which puts Ridgewood, Middle Village, Maspeth, Forest Hills and Bushwick within an easy drive. That reach matters in a city where most flooring jobs happen in apartments, rowhouses and co-ops with tight stairwells and strict delivery rules.
The company covers the full range a homeowner is likely to ask about: carpet, hardwood, laminate, tile and vinyl planks, plus commercial flooring and a marine division that supplies carpet and woven vinyl for boats. Its site lists installation guides for each material, a gallery of finished rooms and a financing application. The free shop-at-home service brings samples to the house, so a buyer can see color against real light before ordering.
Reviews read in the Google listing describe a consistent routine. Phil visits to measure and write the estimate, an installation crew arrives a few days later, and a staff member follows up afterward. Reviewers praise installer Gustavo for luxury vinyl planks and mention a crew of four that replaced bedroom carpet and a staircase in one visit, then tightened a stair rail and repaired a closet door without being asked. One commercial customer had laminate laid in a lab space and called the cleanup excellent.
Bay Carpet reports a BBB accreditation since August 30, 1996 and an A+ rating, and a Queens Chronicle feature is linked from its about page. Google shows 5.0 from 960 reviews, read November 1, 2026.
It suits homeowners and landlords who want carpet, stair runners or a mix of floor types handled by one company, and anyone who prefers a showroom to a pure installer. It suits less well a buyer who wants only sanding and refinishing of existing hardwood, since that is not the company's stated focus. Before booking, ask for a written quote that names the product, underlayment and removal of old flooring, ask who will install it, confirm the warranty terms, and ask whether the price includes moving furniture. New York does not license flooring installers at the state level, so check that the company carries insurance and, for larger projects, ask for a certificate.

Bay Carpet FAQs
Is Bay Carpet licensed and accredited?
Bay Carpet reports a Better Business Bureau accreditation dating to August 30, 1996 and an A+ rating. New York State does not license flooring installers, so ask the company for its insurance certificate and a written quote before work starts. For projects that involve structural or plumbing changes, New York City requires a licensed contractor.
What are Bay Carpet's hours and can it come to my home?
Google lists Bay Carpet open Monday to Saturday from 8 AM to 6 PM and closed Sunday, although its website says the showroom is open on Sundays, so call (718) 366-5001 first. The company offers a free shop-at-home service where samples are brought to your house, and it schedules installation by appointment.
Does Bay Carpet offer financing and what flooring does it install?
Yes, the company has a financing application on its website. It installs carpet, hardwood, laminate, tile and vinyl for homes, and it also handles commercial flooring and marine carpet for boats. Ask for the warranty terms in writing, since the site does not publish them.
