Need recommendations on rectifying problem with Lowes
 

First off, I'm not bashing Lowes...I'm just honestly stating a problem and looking for recommendations to solve this situation. For my Dad's 90th b'day my Mom and I pooled our money and put new carpet in his "mancave". It was ordered through Lowes. They ordered the wrong size and the installer came up short. They found another piece at the store but it is now seemed very obviously when you walk into the room and the seam leads to the bathroom. I know carpets often need seems but this seem is in the worst place possible. The installer agreed it looks bad, Lowes agreed it wasn't right....everyone agrees it wasn't done right but that's all they'll do...just agree and pass the buck. Both my Mom and I have called everyone possible many times over, we've both gone down to the store many times. Customer service is absolutely useless. They promise everything and deliver nothing. The carpeting cost over 1,000.00 and looks bad. My Dad has mobility issues and spends most of his time sitting in this room and it's a constant reminder that Lowe's is not standing behind their work. If anyone has any ideas how we can get them to actually fix this please share. My 86 yr old Mom is so upset about this, she feels as if they are just dragging this out to wear her down in the hopes that she'll go away and they are doing a good job. This has been going on since January. Thank you.

Offer them a chance to rectify it, or take them to Small Claims court. Don't tolerate their shenanigans....

Contact Lowes corporate customer service

Consult with Seniors vs Crime for guidance. According to the website, their offices are still closed for in person visits, but you can submit an on line complaint.

This will work
 

This might take a little work but it will deliver results. Do a search and find out who the CEO is of Lowe's and their corporate headquarters phone number. You'll never talk to this person, but your complaint will be given to some regional vice president. And trust me, when you get an order to fix something from that high up, it'll get fixed.
Maybe this sounds like Overkill, and it is. But it's the only way I've found to get above that level of CYA management. Good luck.

Do what others have suggested.
Didnt they send someone out to measure before doing the installation?

Keep after them. They hope you will just drop it.

That's pretty sad of Lowes.
Another option is to call Channel 9 (or tell Lowes that's your next step), Television is pretty effective in getting businesses to respond (because they don't want to be on TV).

Did that, they promised to handle it and call back on a certain date and then of course never did.

My Mom did tell them she would be contacting the newspaper and they said, "no don't do that, we'll take care of you" and never followed through. Channel 9...good idea, I think we'll do that. Thank you.

For the people.

My Mom did manage to get through to corporate HQ in Mooresville, NC on April 2nd. She has a notebook full of everyone she has talked to. They promised her that they would take care of it and call her back on April 6th. It's now the 10th and nobody has called her back. She went to the store AGAIN yesterday and the answer now is that they can replace it with 2 SEAMs!! From one unsightly seem to two seams, what sense does that make??! And then they compliment her hair! I have never in my life seen such horrible customer service.

Yes, they came out to measure. Lowes ordered the wrong size...after ordering the wrong carpet. This whole thing has been one misstep after another.

Exactly right. Put your story in a letter, send it registered mail, and address it directly to the CEO. Your letter will get attention, and I'll bet they fix the problem post haste.

How did you pay them? If you paid by credit card just dispute the charge and get the charge reversed. Pretty much guarantee they will work with you to fix the problem to get their money back
