I was told once when I first started selling "Seams are an imperfection and only an act of God will make them disappear". Sounds like your expectations might have been a little high if you were expecting invisibility. As to the person who posted that there's a seam in the walkway because the job wasn't properly calculated...that is the responsibility of whoever did the calculations. Too bad floor covering companies down here don't certify their installers through CFI. If they did, they could advertise that they have master installers available. I'd be willing to pay a premium price for a master installer. BTW...home inspectors have their place but they are not floorcovering inspectors nor will their opinions have any weight in case this issue should go farther.

Further information might be found here..Installation Standards - CRI. You might also be able to contact CRI for a list of independent inspectors in the area fees for which you will be responsible.
I dont think the comment was despicable at all!
She's got a monster problem and the rep is not helping...I'd be ****ed too! Maybe he is the company's pocket...unless its you, of course.
