Q: Is 65-oz carpet good?

• <div>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&rsquo;s quality. </div>

Q: Do you put anything under carpet tiles?

• <div>In most cases, you don&rsquo;t need to put anything under carpet tiles&mdash;unlike regular carpet, which often has a layer of carpet padding beneath it. Carpet tiles attach directly to the floor (as long as it&rsquo;s a firm surface like plywood, concrete, or tile) with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or carpet glue.</div>

Q: What flooring options are available for my home?

• <div>There are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-type-flooring-best-my-home.htm">types of flooring options</a> available for you to choose from. Each option has its durability factor to consider, as well as maintenance components. Some flooring options for you to choose from include:<ul><li>Hardwood </li><li>Tile</li><li>Laminate</li><li>Linoleum</li><li>Carpeting</li><li>Stone</li><li>Cork</li></ul></div>

Q: How much does it cost to put flooring in an attic?

• <div>The cost to put wooden flooring in an attic can run a wide range. Carpeting can cost as little as $1 per square foot, or even less if you opt for unfinished flooring types like rubber or painted plywood. On the high end, hardwood floors might cost as much as $45 dollars per square foot. For a previously unused space, you&rsquo;ll probably need to add a subfloor which usually costs about $5 per square foot.</div>
