"I called Kona Carpet after a disappointing experience with another cleaner who left my carpets so wet they started to smell like mildew. From the moment I called Kona, I knew they genuinely wanted to help fix the issue. The owner even tried to squeeze me in right away, but our schedules didn’t line up. I was moving out of state, and my kids would be staying there, so I wanted the carpets clean and fresh for them. On the day of the appointment, they arrived on time, used professional equipment, and offered an amazing price. My daughter even FaceTimed me from California to show how great the carpets looked! Kona Carpets truly turned things around for us."

"We couldn't be happier with Dominick's carpet stretching and cleaning. Our carpeting in our entire house needed stretching in every room. Angel was on time, worked hard all day stretching out carpeting. He came back the next day to clean our carpets, move furniture, very friendly, plus my carpet looks like NEW, stains gone, bumps gone and very professionally done. His prices are very fair and we highly recommend Dominick's Carpet Stretching and Cleaning."

"I'm very happy with how RugBotic cleaned my Persian rug and managed the whole affair. The rug is a 12x8 hand-knitted silk rug that, ahem, hadn't been cleaned in 40 years. Yes, it's somewhat worn but they treated it carefully and we're able to restore the lovely colours, I especially like the blues. I didn't bother restoring some of the tassels, I like a worn look. They provided an underlayment that will help protect it and actually help he felt of the carpet. Very happy with their work."

"Cloud 9 worked with me to have the carpeting cleaned after the home was sold and we moved out, They were patient with the timing of the move and having to gain access to the house through a lock box, The cleaning was thorough and the carpets were left fresh and clean, looking new when the new owners moved in."

"Excellent team! Came in and demo’d tile downstairs and removed carpet then installed wood vinyl all in five days. Completed the stairs with wood vinyl and then installed carpets upstairs. Entire job was complete in less than two weeks. Alfredo and team were fantastic and recommend to anyone looking for a flooring project! Hassan was super responsive — came to the house immediately and had the team start on the job in less than 48 hours of signing the contract. Great company and teams!"

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Installing carpet on stairs involves a lot more cutting, tucking, tack strips, and time. The shape of your staircase, along with the material and construction of the carpet you’re installing, will also increase the cost. Carpet installation on stairs will cost $400 to $800 in total, but it can go as high as $2,500 for difficult staircases, such as wrap-around, upholstered, or spiral staircases.

The average cost to install new flooring is around $3,162, with a typical price range between $1,530 and $4,860. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay an average of $3 to $22, including installation. Several factors influence the total price, including the flooring material, project size, geographic location, and any special features. Material choice is a significant cost driver; vinyl plank, linoleum, and carpet are on the lower end ($3 to $7 per square foot), while stone, tile, and hardwood are more expensive, with hardwood reaching up to $22 per square foot. Prices can also vary by region, and installing flooring on stairs will add to the cost, typically ranging from $11 to $160 per step.

Carpet is most often affixed to the floor by tacks in tack strips rather than nailed or glued directly to the subfloor. The tack strips are nailed to wood subfloors. Even if you want to install carpet over concrete, you’ll adhere the tack strips to the concrete with masonry nails or a liquid adhesive.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.
