Capital Carpet & Flooring Specialists

Capital Carpet & Flooring Specialists is a Wilmington, MA contractor built around commercial and institutional flooring — carpet, resilient flooring, ceramic and porcelain tile, epoxy, polished concrete and wood flooring — for schools, healthcare facilities and municipal buildings across New England, work the company says it's done for more than 30 years. Industry recognition backs up that institutional focus: trade press credited it with a Gold award for its Concord Middle School installation and the Rob Starr People's Choice Award through the Starnet commercial flooring network, of which it's a member. The homeowner-facing reviews on Google are uniformly positive — five stars across all four ratings on file. Two of the three written reviews describe repeat institutional work, naming the same project manager, Mike, and office contact, Michelle, as consistently on top of scheduling and quality on facility jobs, including a pool tile project delivered on time and on budget. Procore's contractor network separately confirms the Wilmington address and tracks 115 commercial projects for the company. Worth asking about before hiring: the U.S. Department of Labor recorded a $7,876 penalty against the company in November 2019 for a wage-and-hour violation tied to Davis-Bacon Act prevailing-wage rules on a federal or federally funded project. Its Better Business Bureau file also lists the company at a Woburn, MA address and dates its founding to 1990, which doesn't match the Wilmington address and roughly 30-year tenure its own site and Procore both give. This isn't a residential remodeler picking up small jobs — it's the call for a large commercial or institutional flooring project, where Starnet-network buying power and decades of school and healthcare installs matter more than a handful of star ratings. Before signing, ask about the 2019 labor finding and confirm which address and history are current.
