Provided by YP.comInterior Specialists, Inc, or, "ISI," is the contracted flooring company through my builder, California West Communities in Del Sur. We purchased our home and as closing approached, I was directed to ISI to select and purchase the flooring. After being shown "promotional" items that were supposed to be on special or discounted (obviously the salesperson was getting a kickback on these items because all of my neighbors who did purchase through ISI have the same Provenza African Plains flooring!) my dream flooring came out to $40,000.00 for a 3300sf home. Hardwood, carpet, tile, travertine and a specialized mosaic in my guest bathroom. They did not want to give me a per square foot price, actual square footage, etc, but, when the sales rep finally gave me a breakdown, the Provenza African Plain's Congo hardwood came out to over $18.00 per sf installed. Within minutes I had pulled the floor up on my IPhone and could have purchased it myself and had it delivered to my garage for $4.99/sf. I did my homework, bid the EXACT PRODUCTS out to multiple local San Diego flooring companies and got an amazing job done with the EXACT SAME PRODUCTS for $25,000.00.
Of course, using 2nd grade Sales 101 ISI attempted to cast doubt on the other flooring company, which was terribly insulting given that I've been a salesperson for 15 years myself. And, I'm so sick of sales peopole using OH so tired, "make sure you are comparing apples to apples" argument. Well, I got my apples and saved myself $15,000.00 and I encourage anyone who is being directed to make your purchases through ISI to do your homework too.
The company I DID go through was Abbey Carpet and Flooring on Miramar Road
