Q: Should I be worried if my floor creaks?

• <div><p>Squeaking floors don&rsquo;t usually pose an immediate safety risk. It can be the result of normal settlement, changes in humidity, or natural wear. Uneven or warped floors do pose a trip risk, so you should call a pro for a repair. This is especially true if you notice visible signs of rot or deterioration. Rarely, a creaking floor can signal structural issues, but there are usually other signs.</p></div>

Q: Do flooring companies recycle old carpet when it's replaced?

• <div><p>Some flooring companies recycle old carpet after replacing it. The broader flooring industry has been moving toward recycling more carpet material. However, whether an individual carpet gets recycled is up to the flooring company that removes it. When gathering quotes for new flooring in your area, ask each company about removal options and what they do with the material.</p></div>

Q: Do you put flooring under kitchen cabinets?

• <div><p>Whether or not you put flooring under kitchen cabinets depends on the type of flooring you&rsquo;re installing. Tile and hardwood flooring can throw off the height measurement for cabinets, so the best practice is to install it first then add the cabinets on top. Laminate flooring, or any floating floor, should not be installed underneath cabinets because it expands and contracts, making the cabinets unstable. </p></div>

Q: Is steam mopping better than regular mopping?

• <div><p>Steam mopping might be better than regular mopping if you don&rsquo;t use the right cleaning products or properly rinse or wring out the mop head. However, if you use the right techniques, regular mopping also sanitizes effectively&mdash;even if it takes more effort. Plus, you know you can use a regular mop on any flooring&mdash;including to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-laminate-floors.htm">clean laminate floors</a> or hardwood, which don&rsquo;t do well with steam cleaning.</p></div>

Q: Can carpet and carpet padding be recycled together?

• <div><p>Sometimes carpet and carpet padding can be recycled together. Many companies and organizations that recycle used carpeting also accept old carpet padding. However, the two require separate processes to recycle. For this reason, some recycling facilities aren't able to accept both carpet and carpet padding.</p></div>
