KAOUD Carpets & rugs

Fred Kaoud has cleaned our carpets for many years. The results are always great. Highly recommended. - 1/13/2021 

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 

I would like to thank Fred and the entire team at Kaoud for the incredible job they did on cleaning and restoring our family antique rugs.
We brought in our rugs in need of a lot of work and cleaning, all of the staff was professional, knowledgeable, skilled, and, helpful. I rarely write these postings notes , but in this case I am absolutely thrilled with the results and highly recommend Kaoud and their services. Bravo ! - 2/18/2022

My husband and I just moved to the area and needed to clean our lovely Persian rug that I inherited from my Armenian grandmother.
Fred Kaoud Jr. was very responsive to my inquiries and extremely knowledgeable. The Kaoud team carefully removed many years of dust and hand washed our precious heirloom. In addition, the installation team helped with sound recommendations on where to position the rug in our new home once it was cleaned. It looks stunning! What a wonderful way to feel at home in our new home! - 8/30/2021 

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

A precious resource for carpet lovers! Deep knowledge, superb service. I learn every time I go to Kaoud’s, and my home is more beautful thanks to them. - 4/28/2019 

Excellent selection. Thoughtful consultation. Flexible scheduling. Expert and respectful installation. The entire experience was seamless and excellent customer service throughout. No need to go anywhere else. - 4/20/2021 

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 

We went to Kaoud to purchase carpeting based on reviews we saw here in Google. We were not disappointed. Service in the store and in our home was excellent. Fred was extremely responsive and thorough in addressing all of our questions, keeping us up-to-date on delivery times, and ensuring installation as quickly as possible. Candido’s installation was highly professional, on time as promised, and expertly performed. We were extremely pleased with the service we received from start to finish, and would highly recommend Kaoud to anyone interested in purchasing floor covering. - 10/20/2021 

We had a large vintage kilim that had holes in it. We couldn't decide whether to spend the money to get it fixed or to buy a new rug. We ended up having our rug repaired and cleaned by Kaoud and we're thrilled with the results! They custom dyed the yarns for a perfect match to reweave the deteriorated areas (there were many). We just got the rug back yesterday and they really delivered everything they promised; it is now something we'll keep forever. Nice, knowledgable people, and they didn't pressure us at all. Highly recommend! - 9/24/2020 

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

We had a wonderful experience with Kaoud Carpet when we downsized to a new house. Fred and his team were ultimate professionals, and Fred was especially adept at communicating regularly and clearly via email. They cleaned and repaired at least 8 Oriental carpets and all look wonderful. One was a multi-generational much used carpet that was worn and tired looking, and now looks beautiful. The work took some time, but Fred was very upfront about this at the beginning. The cost of delivery was built into the total cost which was paid upfront, and that plan served us well. We always knew the status of each carpet, thanks to Fred's emails. All in all, not only was their cleaning and repair excellent, but the combination of utter professionalism, yet informal, friendly, and communicative style informed our five star review. - 5/17/2021 

Prior to moving into our new home we had Kaoud clean and repair our rugs, fantastic service, extremely fast turn-around, and impeccable workmanship - wouldn’t trust any one else with our rugs. - 1/11/2023 

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

We were very pleased with the selection of carpets available at Kaoud, the effort put forth by the staff to review them all, and their taking the time to deliver and stage the three carpets we liked. That made all the difference as the third choice quickly became our first! Good quality and great value - thanks guys! - 9/08/2021 

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 

We went to Kaoud Carpets for a runner on our staircase. When we entered, Fred immediately greeted us and guided us through the plethora of options. Fred helped us narrow down to a few choices and sent us samples. Our runner was installed perfectly and we couldn’t be happier! We will absolutely be returning to Fred for future carpets. - 3/21/2023

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

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 

Kaoud Carpets are an outstanding supplier of quality carpets for the discerning customer. As a local interior designer, I've worked with Fred Kaoud to fulfill my client's needs. Their selection, installation, attention to detail and customer service are superb! I would recommend them without hesitation! Phyllis Zappala - 9/23/2015 

Kaoud did an amazing job on our rugs. The rugs were very soiled but Kaoud washed them repeatedly over several weeks and when they were returned they looked, and felt like they have never been used. There were no odors of any sort either. Just fresh clean rugs. Excellent service. - 8/29/2020 

We found Fred and crew an excellent choice! They were knowledgeable, professional, and caring. The cleaned our Persian rugs, had them back when promised, and did a terrific job. The new rugs we purchased were also wonderful choices. We would highly recommend them to potential customers who wish services or products! - 4/27/2021
