"This company did an amazing job on our kitchen!! The walls were in pretty rough shape & had paneling over sheetrock & several layers of wallpaper over that! We removed some of it before we hired this company but they did alot of prep work to prepare the walls for painting. It all turned out wonderful!! They were very personable, listened to what we wanted, made suggestions, and helped us decide what would look best! We set an appointment for them to start after finishing another job which they were working on. The date to start had to be delayed one week but they were very prompt & courteous about working that out with us! They got it all done in 2 days which was wonderful!!! They also did a great job cleaning everything up when they were done, didn't leave any mess for us to have to clean up!! That meant alot to me!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company to anyone needing work done!! & when I have a need for something else to be done they are definitely the ones I will hire!!!"

"I hired Blu Biohazard & Clean up before I was able to re-open my offices for my employees to return to work. They handle deep sanitization. They were professional, efficient & took all safety pre-cautions seriously. They walked me through each step of the process & showed me how all they do will assist in keeping myself & employees more healthy. I was very impressed & will highly recommend them."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

To prevent your dining room carpet from slipping, consider using rug pads or grippers underneath to provide traction and stability. Additionally, ensure the carpet is properly sized and secured to the floor to minimize movement. Regularly check and readjust the rug to maintain its position and safety under your dining room table.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet’s quality. 

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.

Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on space size and complexity.
