Customers say: True professional

"Ed was able to schedule us in very quickly. He was right on time, performed the work we asked for, (carpet stretching), and showed us a different area just starting to show signs that the same issue was happening. He stayed and repaired that area for us, as well. Great results, very friendly and professional, and the price was very reasonable! Weâ ll definitely recommend him to our friends and neighbors!"

"I am really pleased with how my carpet turned out, the installation was fast and it looks great. It felt a little expensive, even after negotiating the price down a bit, but I am a firm believer you get what you pay for and my carpet looks great so I have no regrets."

"We feel so fortunate to have found William Solis. He did a fantastic job with our carpets which I felt were hopeless and we had unexpected guests coming to stay a while. Several months ago I came home with two dogs rescued from a shelter to add to one very imperious mini dachshund. Shortly afterward in a tangle with the three of them and a gate I fell, tearing a tendon in one leg and breaking 2 wrists. Needless to say dog training fell into neglect. Along with the last in line housework. On short notice William came to help, he came to view the scene the same day he answered my advertisement and did the job the next day. He was precisely on time. He worked very, very hard and steadily for all the time he was here. He had excellent, new, top of the line equipment. My husband, Peter, was a golf course superintendent for many years and appreciates hard work and well tended equipment. Peter recently retired of necessity because of a serious neck injury and we really needed Williams help. I want to add that we both liked William so very much. He is a kind and gracious gentleman and any one would be happy to have him as a friend. He is clearly honest, dependable and generous and his fee reflected these characteristics"

"Patrick showed up on time and did a thorough job. Carpet smelled of string urine from our old Great Dane. He cleaned the stains and removed the smell at a very reasonable price. We will have him back to do the rest of our house soon. Great job and a good guy. I’d certainly recommend him to anyone!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

New carpet installation offers warmth, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. It can improve indoor air quality by trapping dust particles and provides a sound-dampening effect, which is beneficial for creating quiet environments.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.
