Boston Carpet is a family-run carpet installation and workroom shop in Canton, founded by Ken Cokely in 1986. The company says it has stayed family-owned for the 40 years since, specializing in custom carpet installation, stair runners, and rug work for homeowners, designers, and property managers across New England. The clearest account of the work comes from a customer who says they've used Boston Carpet for more than 20 years, praising its installation quality, value, and responsiveness in an October 2023 review. The company also holds an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, whose profile lists it as established in 1986, and shows a 5-star average on Google from two ratings. BuildZoom lists a Rhode Island Flooring Contractor license under the company's name — anyone hiring them should confirm its current status directly with the state registry rather than relying on the directory listing. This is a strong call for custom carpet, stair-runner, or rug work rather than a broad remodel; confirm current licensing and get a written scope before the job starts.
“And Ken Cokely, Boston Carpet, Canton, Mass., cited NRF’s reliability.”
Boston Carpet is an exceptional carpet installation company! We have worked with them for 20+ years and their work quality, value, professionalism, and responsiveness are unparalleled.
