Nothing feels better than a dream come true. At Old Ironsides Construction, that's what we do! From project management, to kitchen and bath remodels, fence work, concrete, room additions and more. Let us help you bring possible through to reality. We are a team of like minded guys who love helping transform dreams into reality. A disabled veteran business, we know intimately what it means to serve. Repeat business is our specialty, and referrals is our sales pipeline.

"From the start the company was very punctual. I was extremely impressed with Steve the painter. The precision in his brush strokes was amazing. I've watched a lot of professional painters in my life and he was by far the best I've seen. He was also very knowledgeable. The other painter David was extremely polite. He was also very skilled. They did an absolutely amazing job. The countertop installation was also very interesting to watch and the men who cut and installed our quartzite countertops were very quick and professional and did an amazing job. Dan, our tile guy, was also very quick and professional. He was very polite and made sure to check with me about decisions on how the tile was placed. I was very appreciative of that. Overall, I was very pleased with every crew that came to our house to work. To have an honest and fair review, I will also list the negatives. They are miniscule but still notable. Communication with management was lacking. I often had to ask when someone was coming. I had my kitchen completely demoed and no more work scheduled for 5 days. Seems like demo could've waited. I had to negotiate the price more than once which seemed inappropriate. Once should've been plenty. Twice I had men show up to work completely unannounced. When the work was completed, there was an absolute cut off of communication. No gratitude for my business of any sort. They sent a worker to ask for the final payment. Overall, the work is extremely quality work, so the company still gets 5/5 stars and I would recommend them. The positives far outweigh the negatives."

McGeorge Brothers Chem-Dry provides quality carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, and upholstery cleaning for homes and businesses in Kern County. When it comes to carpet cleaning, Chem-Dry is the world's leader, by cleaning an estimated 1 billion square feet of carpet each year! Chem-Dry provides a welcome alternative to ordinary steam cleaning, which soaks the carpet and leaves dirty water below the surface, which 'wicks' back up as the carpet dries over the next couple days. Carpets cleaned the Chem-Dry way are left sparkling clean and dry in 1 to 2 hours. Our secret is that we use the power of effervescent, carbonating cleaning solutions that are so effective that we only need to use a small amount of moisture to achieve miraculously clean carpets. Chem-Dry uses The Natural, a proprietary carpet cleaning solution that is non-toxic and safe for kids and pets. Professional cleanings from Chem-Dry will protect your carpet and help it last longer. We offer many other services: area rug cleaning, carpet stain removal, pet urine removal, odor removal, dust mite anti-allergen treatment, grout and stone cleaning, and granite countertop renewal. We can even do carpet repair and house cleaning. (Independently owned and operated. All work done on the premises. Licensed, Bonded, and Insured.)

"I purchased carpeting and linoleum from Carpet Outlet in Bakersfield on July 11, 2019. Mistake #1: On the day my carpet was to be installed, Carpet Outlet arrived at my house without enough carpet. They were 8 feet short. Mistake #2: On the day my linoleum was to be installed, July 22, Carpet Outlet arrived without enough linoleum. Three men were scheduled to be at my house, and one of them was to repair damage to my floors before the linoleum was installed. That man did not show up, and, after a couple of hours, the other two handled the problem by simply leaving. They left my toilet in my bathtub, my refrigerator and stove on my (new) front porch, which they scuffed, and my washer and dryer on the back porch. They also left a twelve inch scratch on my office door. Carpet Outlet attempted to bill my credit card in full for a job half done, and acknowledges no wrongdoing on their part. Owner Mark's way of dealing with wronged customers is to subject them to verbal abuse, both on the phone and in emails. When I asked him to send me an invoice, he refused. Here is an example of Mark's email correspondence: "If that's not who I'm talking to the." Stay away from these people. They are friendly until they make a mistake. Then you become a "problem customer", and they abuse you mercilessly. They are a madhouse."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Bakersfield, CA

While it’s possible to install carpet yourself, it’s best to hire a local carpet installer to ensure it’s done correctly and safely. Before installing carpet yourself, check whether the manufacturer’s warranty will remain intact. Many manufacturer’s warranties won’t cover the cost of materials under the warranty if it wasn’t installed by a pro. In addition, you should only install carpet yourself if you’re familiar with the tools required and if the installation is straightforward, not involving things such as floor vents or stairs. 

Keeping your new carpet clean is vital to extending its longevity. Vacuuming regularly—at least once a week—can help remove dirt, debris, and pet hair. Instead of waiting, treating stains as they appear helps keep your carpet fibers looking fresh. Remember to blot rather than rub, rubbing will only make the stain larger. 

It’s ideal to hire a professional carpet cleaning service to conduct a deep cleaning of your carpets a few times per year. The cost of professional carpet cleaning is $180 on average, which can help remove tough stains, draw out hidden dust and allergens, and eliminate odors. 

There are many different types of carpets for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:

  • Fiber: Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic. 

  • Pile type: Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.

  • Pile height: Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.

  • Density: Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other. 

Carpets can last between five and 15 years. The longevity of your carpet is dependent on a few factors, including its type, cushion, fibers, and amount of foot traffic. The type of carpet you have paired with the material impacts its life span tremendously and the foot traffic it endures.

If your carpet is 20 years or older, replace it soon to avoid potential odors and overly-worn spots. You should consider replacing it sooner if it has stains, water damage, smelly odor, matting, or color loss.

The cost to install carpet is $1,780 on average for 330 square feet, the size of an average living room. This cost could range from $200 to $5,000, depending on the amount of carpet, material, and type of carpet. 

If you need 500 square feet of carpet, it’ll cost $1,500 to $5,500, while 1,000 square feet of carpet costs $3,000 to $11,000. Polyester is one of the more affordable options, ranging from $1 to $3 per square foot. Wool is a more luxurious option, ranging from $4 to $20 per square foot.
