"Max and his team did an amazing job remodeling our master bath, hall bath, and carpet installation. The old shower and tub were removed. Porcelain bath floors were placed and look perfect!! The porcelain shower Max and his team designed was beautiful! Bath counter tops were also replaced. The carpet is perfect!! Max and his team were so knowledgeable and had a great eye with helping us find what we were looking for. Max and his team are so kind, experienced, and very professional!! I highly recommend Max and his team and will always seek their help with any projects we may need. Thank you Max, Omar, and all the guys for everything you did for us!!!

"Jim is the absolute best flooring professional I have ever hired. I have hired him for various flooring jobs over the past 10 years. He has installed carpet and vinyl in my rental property numerous times. I have also hired Jim to install carpet in my tri-level home which was a huge project. He also replaced my bathroom flooring. And he laid wood flooring in my entry way. Jim will always provide a great consultation on the latest trends while still providing you with the most cost efficient way to get what you will love. Jim is timely. He will do what he says he will do. I am always extremely satisfied with his work, professionalism, timely completion of the job, and reasonable prices. I highly recommend Jim for any of your flooring needs!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.

Nylon carpet is widely considered one of the most durable and longest-lasting options, typically lasting 12 to 15 years. Its durability comes from its high resistance to wear, tear, stains, fading, and abrasions. It also resists liquid spills, insects, mold, and mildew, making it ideal for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways. For even greater longevity, frieze or Berber carpets are excellent choices that can last up to 20 to 25 years.

Beyond the material, a carpet's construction is key to its durability. Low-pile carpets with short, tight loops hold up better against wear than high-pile options. As a synthetic material, nylon is available in a vast range of colors and styles and often feels remarkably soft.

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

The first step in budgeting for carpet is to determine the amount of carpet you need and the type of carpet you want. You might be tempted to opt for the least expensive option if you have a limited budget, but a low-quality carpet won’t last as long as a high-quality one. When accounting for future carpet repair costs, it makes sense to buy the best-quality carpet you can afford.
