Jamie RamsayBefore having our own kids, we’re used to having carpet floors all over our home. When we moved to our new place, we decided to put it on hold as we’re quite unsure if having a carpeted floor with a growing (and more active) household would still be a great idea.
Good thing, one of our friends told us that Vancouver has the best carpet flooring shops that offer durable carpet flooring that will not just provide us some happy feet, but will also work best with kids and furry friends at home.
So if you also have the same dilemma, or just want to spruce up your home with high-quality carpet flooring, continue reading this blog as we give you the best ones we found in the city!
How much does carpet flooring cost in Vancouver?
In Vancouver, the typical cost for carpeting would be around $2.61 per square foot. Meanwhile, installation may bring the price up to $6 per square foot.
How we chose:
- Style range: We checked for the stores that offer different styles, textures, and patterns of carpet flooring.
- Durability: Since Vancouver is known for its rainy and damp weather, it’s important for us to include carpets that work well in properties with higher humidity levels.
- Insulation: We checked if the carpets can add insulation, especially during the winter season in Vancouver.
- Noise reduction: We checked if the carpet absorbs sound very well, especially in properties where soundproofing matters the most.

Our cousin recently moved into the same condominium that we live in, and invited us over for a little housewarming party last month.
When we saw her unit, we were admiring how cozy her place was, which also kept us wondering what made her space extra inviting compared to ours.
She showed us a photo of her unit before the carpets got installed, and it dawned to us that it was indeed the carpet flooring from Global Carpets & Hardwood Ltd. that made a difference.
That same week, we made sure to drop by their showroom to check their product lineup on the spot. It’s great that we didn’t have to reserve a spot, they immediately accommodated us the moment we got there.
You’ll love how organized their showroom is—everything is even color-coordinated. So if you’re following a certain theme at home, you can easily see the selections based on their color.
When we were exploring their showroom, we never felt like we had to rush, or even limit ourselves from checking multiple samples. You can even step on their carpets, giving you a better feel of their carpet options.
We highly recommend their thick and extra plush carpet flooring, great if you get cold easily. It honestly helped us save on heater costs as we didn’t have to blast the heater the entire day.
Great selection of carpet and hardwood flooring
“We have been using Global carpets for years. Both for Residential and Multi-Family Homes. Our homes are Upscale and quality is key for any build we do. Global carpets hands down has amazing quality and excellent customer service. They go above and beyond. We love their selection of hardwood flooring and carpets. Our team recommends Global Carpets and we will continue to work with their team. Thank you Jimmy and team!”

Caters to a wide range of budgets
“Been using Global Carpets in our residential construction projects for over 15 years . Jimmy and his team stand out from other flooring companies because they actually stand behind their product and installation. Great selection of hardwood floors as well that fit any type of budget from low end to high end . Would highly recommend Global if your looking for a company that stands out from the rest.”

When our neighbors invited us for a Sunday brunch, we stayed most of our time in their living room. When we were talking about our recent home decor shopping, she raved about scoring their new carpet flooring that didn’t break the bank.
She recommended End Of The Roll to us—she even volunteered to take us there the following Saturday.
We weren’t really expecting to stay longer, but because of the several rows of carpets that welcomed us, we ended up browsing the lanes for hours.
As soon as we entered the shop, a sales person accompanied us as we went over each row. You can even show them your pegs so they can lead you to your best options, perfect if you don’t want to waste hours checking multiple carpets.
But don’t worry, their staff won’t breathe on your necks the entire time. They’re just ready to answer your questions, without giving you pressure.
Meanwhile, if you’re looking for moisture-resistant carpets, they have great selections specifically for basements and entryways. We made sure to get ours here, and we’ve been very happy with our purchase.
And the best part is that we didn’t even have to wait for weeks to have them delivered. So if you’re working on a tight timeline, or maybe just have a low emotional quotient like us, then End Of The Roll should be on your speed dial!
Fair pricing
“Absolutely outstanding work, very fair prices, work was done in a timely manner, plus Al and his crew who did the work were the absolute best. I’m extremely happy with my new floors and have nothing but good things to say about the End of the Roll team .
Mustafa is the best installer .”

Getting a quote is easy
“We got two bedrooms done with End of the Roll. Their carpet selection is great, and the process of selecting and getting a quote was very easy. The installation was extremely well done (much better than the original developer special we had), fitting well around the odd geometry in some corners and the two installers were very nice. The only hiccup we had was with the booking, I guess maybe a miscommunication or lack of follow-up left us waiting on the installation day, but fortunately after a couple of calls back and forth the installers were still able to come out that day and a big thanks again to Mustafa and Nasrat (I think?) – they really did a fantastic job.”

We’ve all experienced people-watching—but eavesdropping is another level, and we love it when we hear (and learn) something valuable. When we were out to grab coffee at our usual spot, the next table was raving about their new carpet flooring installation.
We kept on hearing the name Floors Depot, and it honestly sounded familiar. Then we realized, it was where our parents got their carpet flooring two years ago too.
That same week, we decided to visit their showroom again, just to check if they have something new. Their showroom was quite small, but we were surprised that they had the available variants that we needed.
One of their dedicated staff was leading the way, allowing us to check the samples based on our pegs. But if you need help in selecting the best textures or colors for your place, you can still ask for their best recommendations.
We were actually looking for a carpet flooring that is perfect for our dining area—one with occasional coffee and sauce spills, and we were glad to see more than five options here at Floors Depot.
They were also giving us rough cost estimates while we were going around, and we’re glad that it was a close match to the final quotation that was given to us before leaving the shop.
So if you’re also looking for a premium-looking carpet flooring without the splurge, we highly recommend this store.
Detail-oriented staff
“Highly recommended! The team at Floors Depot did an amazing job installing hardwood floors. They were extremely professional, detail oriented and the quality of their work exceeded our expectations! Alex was a pleasure to work with! Very responsive and professional. We were able to match our existing floors and finish the project on a tough schedule! Timur (installer) did an amazing job! He’s really meticulous and went above and beyond to finish the project on schedule !”
Vova Ushenko, Google Review
Made sure to leave the place spotless after installation
“Floors Depot nailed it! Got their waterproof vinyl planks and some beautiful porcelain tiles for my foyer. The way they blended them together looks amazing – super clean transition. The team was quick, knew what they were doing, and didn’t leave any mess. Such an upgrade from my old floors!”

If you’re looking for a carpet flooring provider that works best with a household that has kids and pets running around all day, then we highly recommend Burritt Bros. Carpet & Floors.
A month before we got our giant poodle, we made sure to check out their selection in their showroom. We were immediately welcomed by their staff, and asked us if we’re specifically looking for a type of carpet.
When we told them our specifications, they immediately pointed us to a specific section. They also showed us another alternative, one that also works best with our city’s damp weather, which lets us maximize our budget.
After selecting the type of carpet, they took the time to explain to us the installation process, including the next available installation schedule. We appreciated that they check if you’re comfortable first, before asking you to settle the payment.
Six years later, we’re glad that our carpet flooring looks like they’ve just been installed a few months ago. This company would really give you high-quality carpet flooring options, perfect if you also have a growing family (and that includes pets too!) like us.
However, we had to wait a bit for a callback. So if you urgently need a response from them, we highly suggest visiting their showroom instead as we find them more accommodating in-person.
Easy coordination with the installers
“Super professional and attentive service from Adam, great product at a good price, and the installers were very friendly, competent and easy to have in our home.”
Rick Lewis, Google Review
Constantly sends updates during installation
“Burritt Brothers just completed a replacement of over 2,000 sqft of flooring in our home. Our installer, Florin Constantin, did an impeccable job, ranging from the critical tasks of levelling and securing the previously squeaky underlay to giving us a staircase that will wow our visitors. Florin went “above and beyond” for us on a couple of occasions, which we will always remember and be grateful for. And a big shout-out to Jenn Chatelaine who regularly checked in on progress and kept us apprised throughout. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.”

Just a few months ago, we decided to replace the old carpet flooring in the master bedroom. One of our closest friends raved about Discount Carpet & Flooring, so we thought of trusting their advice.
Unlike the other carpet flooring showrooms, it was easier to browse their samples. Even better, we didn’t feel overwhelmed with options that we didn’t need.
You can also ask the staff to help you pin down the options based on your style and budget—that would be much faster based on our experience.
We also highly recommend coming in with your room dimensions, and maybe include a sketch or an image, when you can! We got a more accurate quotation when we did this during our last visit.
This carpet flooring showroom is also a great option if you’re working on a budget. But don’t worry, if you prefer a more luxurious lineup, they also have them here too!
Meanwhile, for those of you who are looking for comfortable carpet flooring, they’ve got better selection here as well. We got one for our master bedroom, which is beneficial since our kids end up falling asleep with us on the floor during weekends.
Even with just a blanket, the carpet still felt soft, and more importantly—not itchy at all!
Installation was done on time
“We recently worked with Discount Carpet & Flooring, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. Mr. Hakan, the owner, runs a very professional operation, and it clearly shows in the quality of their products and service. We had the pleasure of working directly with Mr. Matt, who was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand our needs and made sure everything was handled smoothly and efficiently. The installation was done on time and with great attention to detail. We’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend Discount Carpet & Flooring to anyone looking for quality flooring and excellent customer service. Thank you again to Mr. Hakan and Mr. Matt!”
