Hi, I'm Ruben. I lead every job myself.
Third Coast Carpet is a family-operated, installer-direct company. I handle every sales call and every estimate myself, and I lead every installation with my own crew of skilled installers.
My story
Raised in the carpet trade
Carpet has been my family's work for as long as I can remember. I was helping on jobs at 7, and by 12 I was installing for real: stretching, seaming and learning why the details matter.
Retail flooring stores still hire me as their installer. In 2022 I started Third Coast Carpet so homeowners could hire me directly and skip the showroom markup.
Today I run every estimate and lead every install alongside a crew of experienced installers I trust. My wife helps answer calls and schedule estimates.
I was born and raised right here in Houston, and I still enjoy every part of this trade, from the first measurement to the final stretch.
