KAOUD Carpets & rugs

We have been Kaoud customers since the late 1960's when they were located in Milford, CT; and , then went to their new showroom in Wilton when it opened in the late 1980's. No words can adequately express the professionalism of this family owned company. They recently went "above and beyond" in helping us with an unusual situation with one of our Karastan rugs. We thank them so much for their assistance. Not only are the owners wonderful people to deal with; but also, their pick-up and delivery team is great, and the way they solved a carpet placement in my home recently was outstanding. Dealing with Kaoud is a genuine pleasure and we would highly recommend them. ***l and ******* *********** - 12/12/2017 

We needed solutions for our home after my wife fell on our dangerously beautiful hardwood floors resulting in a serious broken leg. Fred helped us select a number of beautiful area rugs and some custom designed solutions for stairs and walkways that now provide safe but beautiful floors that accent our hardwood. He brought several choices out to our home so we could see what they looked like in our home and was patient as we tried a couple times before settling on what worked best for us. The installation was professional as they consulted with us and advised us on several decisions that needed to be made to ensure a quality result that suited the limitations of some of the spaces.
This is the second time we have dealt with Kaoud in 3 years. The previous carpets we bought still look brand new ( compared to one very expensive dining room carpet we bought from another design store that is not holding up well)
For quality, selection, service and professional installation we would not use anyone else. - 7/25/2019 

We've been a returning customer of Kaoud Carpets & Rugs given the team's professionalism and variety of rug options. We've bought rugs, and recently had a runner installed on our staircase. The installment team were very professional and cordial, and the new runner looks amazing. We always enjoy working with Fred Kaoud -- he is very communicative about expectations and delivery timelines and knowledgeable about what rugs/carpets work best for our needs! Looking forward to continue working with him and his team. - 8/03/2023 

Kaoud Carpets & Rugs in Wilton is a gem of a store. Fred Kaoud and his staff are helpful without being overbearing. They are focused on customer satisfaction. Their pricing is competitive with any of the large retailers. I was able to get a high end product at a price I could afford. Besides stocking an impressive selection of oriental carpets, they offer an extensive variety of broadloom carpets as well as hardwoods, laminates and other flooring - something I did not realize until I got there. I am happy to have discovered Kaoud in Wilton because now I know it is the only place I need to go for carpeting or flooring. Luckily for me it’s located nearby my home, but it’s worth the trip from outside the immediate area. - 2/21/2019 

Fred was incredibly knowledgeable and really helped us narrow down the style we were looking for. I would recommend checking out Kauod’s for your area rug needs. - 7/31/2020 

We lived in Connecticut and appreciated the longevity of this local family business and the great customer service! Around since 1954, they are doing things right for the customer!
We built our retirement home in North Carolina, I made sure that I purchased my rugs from Kaoud Carpets & Rugs! Fred Kaoud Jr has an amazing eye for color selections and he can recommendation rugs based on your style. He has been spot on with our selections. Whether you are looking for a runner, carpet for stairs, or showcase pieces for your living areas their selections are amazing! We even got our outdoor rugs for our screened porch. Every year when we travel back up to CT, we make a point of stopping by the Wilton store to check out the inventory and to catch up with the Kaouds! I love when I can ship my rugs back to NC and they are wrapped professionally. Love their rug pads too! Time to change our colors! See you soon! - 9/23/2015 

Great selection, excellent service, and delivered promptly (on a holiday no less). We were very pleased with our Kaoud experience! - 9/08/2021 

I ordered several rugs from Kaoud Carpets & Rugs, and my experience was superb! Fred Kaoud, Jr. was very attentive to my specific needs, first in choosing and ordering beautiful natural rugs for my luxury rental property. Per my rental contract, I had to furnish the rugs by August 1st. However, the rugs which I ordered could only be delivered by the end of August. To resolve this problem, Fred Jr. actually created temporary loaner rugs according to the sizes of my ordered rugs, and delivered these loaner rugs to my property by August 1st, free of charge! When the rugs I ordered came in, he replaced the loaner rugs by these rugs, again free of charge! It is difficult to find such high level of personalized service anywhere! Also, Fred Jr. is a wonderful, warm and positive person, and is a pleasure to deal with! I highly recommend Fred Kaoud Carpets & Rugs! - 10/10/2020 

I have been working with Kaoud for over 15 years and they are true pros! Great customer service, great value and timely responses to questions. It’s nice to work with a local, family owned business. Thank you!! - 6/24/2020

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs did an absolutely phenomenal job cleaning and restoring a hand-knit wool rug that I had shipped from AZ. It was beyond dirty, full of dust. I am sure it hadn't been cleaned in years (if ever!). When they delivered it to my home, it looked like a brand-new rug. The colors were vivid, and it feels soft under foot. I am so thrilled they took such wonderful care of this rug that is precious to me because it was my parents'. I would not trust anyone else with my rugs. Whether you have modest rugs or expensive heirlooms, Kaoud Carpets will handle them with care and return them to you spotlessly clean. This is a local family business with the highest standards of customer service. I highly recommend using Kaoud Carpets and Rugs for all of your flooring/carpet/rug needs. - 12/21/2022 

Working with Fred was an absolute pleasure. Very professional, quality work and timely performance. We had six or seven rugs cleaned and packed for storage, we were in the process of moving, and they all came out beautiful. I highly recommend their services. - 9/04/2021

Our overall experience with Kaoud Carpets & Rugs was absolutely first-class. From the very beginning of our project -- exploring lots of different materials and options, through to setup and installation, Fred and team were keenly focused on understanding our needs every step of the way and ensuring that our selections would exceed our expectations. Ventura's hard work and dedication to perfection during the installation was exceptional. Communication throughout our project was excellent as well. What a tremendous difference compared to other local carpet and rug providers we've worked with that make you feel insignificant (i.e., just another buyer)! We highly recommend Kaoud Carpets & Rugs for any flooring projects you may have. - 6/22/2024 

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs has a huge variety of rugs and carpets to choose from and the brother and sister who run the family business provide a very welcoming environment. Their delivery people are highly professional who make sure the installation is done perfectly. - 5/13/2023 

Very professional and clearly and slowly explained the work done. I am coming back again. Nice people. Great job. - 11/04/2021 

A leaking water pipe caused considerable damage to carpeting in our basement family room. Total replacement of carpeting and padding was needed. We shopped several carpeting stores then found desirable products at Kaoud Rugs in West Hartford. The sales person, Christina L********, came to our home , measured all open areas, closets and stairs. The price was acceptable. When installation occurred, I was impressed at the concern for detail and precision performed by the crew. I cannot find a flaw at the stairs, around lolly columns, at doorways or closet entries. They did a very good installation. Maurice Kaoud helped finalize communication with our insurance. We are pleased with all interactions with Kaoud Rugs of West Hartford. - 12/10/2021 

The 2 rugs we had cleaned by Kaoud, one an oriental, came out beautifully. The pick-up and delivery service was seamless. I highly recommend Kaoud Carpets. - 3/11/2021 

Kaoud Carpets and Rugs provided exceptional service regarding the cleaning and moth proofing of 16 of my heirloom Persian rugs--starting with the phone call I had with Fred Kaoud, Jr. Mr. Kaoud arrived at our home the very next day to personally inspect the carpets. He patiently explained the problems with each one, the process by which his firm cleans and moths proofs. He also provided a detailed account of each rug, its age and origin. Six weeks later the rugs returned home----now silky, exquisitely clean, the colors vibrant. They have never looked this good. His professional team brought the rugs in and expertly placed them around the house, explaining why some rugs should be placed in the same room with another rug, due to the common origin and related designs. Fred and his team were a delight to work with. We can't say enough about Kaoud Carpets and Rugs-For anyone who treasures their rugs as heirloom quality art, Kaoud is the only place to go. - 5/05/2019 

Absolutely the Best! Highly recommend the all services for cleaning and especially restoration. Bravo - 2/18/2022 

Excellent experience. Received assistance with matching colors/designs and installation was no problem. - 10/05/2020 

Friendly and reliable service...cleaned and repaired our two rugs expertly and also gave advice on each carpet’s value. - 3/08/2021 

Great and high quality selection, impeccable customer service, installation crew was very knowledgeable and professional. Will use again and highly recommend! - 8/12/2019 

Our family just used Kaoud Carpets to install a stair runner and for an area rug. After visiting a few different carpet stores, we chose to go with Kaoud and could not be happier with our decision. Fred and his team are beyond friendly and helpful and they had a great selection to choose from. Removal and installation was top notch as well! We will without a doubt be using Kaoud again for our carpeting/flooring needs. - 1/30/2022 

My husband and I were completely happy with the service we received at Kaoud Carpets and Rugs. Joanne was very knowledgeable and understanding of our situation, guiding us the perfect carpet for our needs. It makes us happy whenever we see it. - 5/05/2023 

Absolutely the Best! Highly recommend the all services for cleaning and especially restoration. Bravo - 2/18/2022 

We were very happy with our recent purchase of a carpet from Fred at Kaoud. The service was excellent form start to finish and the carpet will give us lots of pleasure for years to come. - 9/05/2021

It's rare now-a-days to get the quality of service and product that you receive from the Kaouds. As soon as you walk into the store, you receive quality service with a smile and most importantly, patience. They are very calm and quite professional. No pressure to buy either.
I just purchased wall-to-wall carpet for our family room. I assumed that they only sold orientals, but I was wrong. My friend had told me to go see what they had. She was also looking for broadloam for a staging job she was doing in Weston and was quite happy with what she found. I had purchased an oriental rug from them years ago and was quite happy then. So I decided to go there to see their selection. I was pleasantly surprised with their vast selection of sisals and jutes! I wanted a modern contemporary look and they had it all. Joanne Kaoud even offered to come to my home with a variety of samples. She came with an arm full of choices, with a big smile on her face, so I could see them in the room. We even had coffee together. Those little things mean a lot! I'm from Minneapolis and out East you don't always get the quality service that I received from the Kaouds. The carpet looks fabulous! Better that I ever expected! Plus with the scrap, Fred Kaoud suggested that they bind the edges and now I have an extra rug in the parlor!
You'll be happy that you used Kaouds! We are! - 6/28/2015 

We purchased several oriental rugs 15 years ago from Kaoud and continue to be completely happy with their quality. When it was necessary to replace old carpeting in other areas, we visited several dealers but found there was nothing superior to Kaoud in both quality and service. Everything was done on time and in a thoroughly professional manner. Fred gave us a variety of options and suggestions that helped us make a decision without any pressure. The installers, George and Gus, were professional in their own right and did an excellent job, especially on hard to match corners. We could not be more satisfied. - 8/12/2019
