"My kitchen floor was in deplorable condition; David and his team turned it into a floor that looks brand new. He did an amazing job! Not only that, they set up so that not a single speck of wood dust escaped the work area - amazing. Their clean-up, too, was great with nothing for me to do, but return the things removed from the area refinished. This was one of the rare instances of a perfect job."

The attention to detail to detail is phenomenal. Just can't say enough about the craftsmanship. We will highly recommend Chai to all of our friends and family. Thanks again Chai for installing our beautiful floor."

"Gil Ramirez Construction did a fantastic job on the wood floors in my house. They refinished old bedroom floors that were under carpet and matched the stain perfectly to the living room. They installed new wood flooring in an additional bedroom and family room and matched the grain and stain to the old floors. Gil was very good with his communication skills and stayed on the job daily to complete it as soon as possible. The work site was left very clean when the job was completed and the price was very fair. I am extremely pleased with the workmanship."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

The rule of three for flooring means that you should have a maximum of three flooring types throughout your home, such as hardwood in your bedroom and living room and tile in your kitchen and bathroom. The rule brings cohesion to your home and creates a seamless look. By using the same material, you also save money on future repairs.

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.

Vacuum regularly, clean spills promptly, and schedule professional deep cleaning annually.

Depending on carpet type and labor, costs range from $3 to $12 per square foot.

One reason that laminate flooring has grown in popularity is that it can be installed on top of some kinds of existing flooring, therefore saving money and time. However, don’t install laminate flooring over carpet since it may void the manufacturer’s warranty. Plus, carpet is often too plush and soft to properly support a laminate flooring system.
