"Andre sanded and refinished Brazilian hardwood floors upstairs and changed the carpeted steps to match the floors. Everything done properly in a detailed manner with all areas taped off to avoid mess. Very dependable, personable and better than a large company that sends out a random crew."
"It was done in a timely manner.They were very professional.My floor looks awesome.I will definitely use them again! I highly recommend for your flooring needs!"
"Ken was very knowledgeable about our problems. We asked him about several issues; some needed fixing and some did not. I respect his opinions. Our major issue was a two story wall that was sagging because it was built between floor joists. We had an extra joist and supports installed. The workmen were courtious and effecient. Our floor feels very stable now. "
"Al was very kind and straightforward. He did initially tried to charge me a little more than the average for the area but after I explained that I had done research for the labor costs and already have materials he got the cost significantly also mention that you found him on Angie's List. I am very pleased with how the floor looks they did a very quick job some very weird layouts because my house is strange though I love its eccentricity. Though it takes a long time to book him because he is usually busy he works very fast, but not sloppily, and the work was completed in approximately 4 days with a small crew of three one of whom was his son. we are almost done with most of our work but I'm a call him back for some minor repairs thing that needs to be completed the only complaint I have is that at least one of the workers is a smoker and I found a few cigarette butts in my yard or in the bushes next to where they were sawing which was not very pleasant. That is a minor complaint though because as contractors go they show up on time and they get the work done and they get the work done well; which, I don't know if you use very many contractors, is unusual and a good thing. Overall I would use them again in a heartbeat and I would suggest them to other people. "
"I did not have a very good experience with Jones home improvements. Ryan was never on time, he did not keep in contact with me to let me know when he was coming back to finish the job he started, he did a small plumbing job for me that was good but, he came back to repair the floor and replace it and it took more hours that he quoted it would take. He had to return to finish the job because he forgot to pick up finish molding. I had to call him to get a date locked in for him to complete the job. He is a nice enough guy, but really is not a professional carpenter and does not possess finish carpentry skills. I do feel I was overcharged because of his lack of knowledge and his inability to complete the job in a timely manner. I would not recommend him to anyone."
"I recently had luxury vinyl flooring installed by Jam Gulf Exquisite Services, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. They took the time to ensure everything was done to perfection, and the quality of their work truly exceeded my expectations. The flooring looks absolutely stunning, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch flooring installation. Thank you for your excellent service!"
It depends on the kind you choose, but some types of carpet padding can last for decades. For instance, flat rubber—which is dense, durable, and higher-priced than other padding materials—has a life span of up to 20 years. On the other hand, prime foam—a lower-priced material that often comes free with a carpet installation—lasts less than five years on average.
Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.
While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.
Before starting, consider these factors:
Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.
Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.
Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.
Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.
Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.
Bumps, wrinkles, or detachment often require stretching for smoothness.
Ultimately, it’s a matter of personal preference. However, as a rule of thumb, lighter-colored carpets and walls will open up a room and often make it feel larger than it really is. On the other hand, darker shades tend to shrink a space, making it feel cozier. By mixing and matching light and dark colors, you can add dimension to the room.
