"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Charles and the team at Floor Coverings International! From start to finish, they were absolutely amazing. Cheryl, their designer, made the entire process seamless—her expertise and keen eye for design helped me choose the perfect carpeting and vinyl plank flooring for my home. The installation team was not only incredibly skilled but also punctual, courteous, and super helpful throughout the entire process. They worked efficiently and paid attention to every detail, leaving no mess behind. Thanks to their outstanding work, my home looks completely transformed—almost like a brand-new house! If you’re looking for top-notch flooring, exceptional service, and a team that truly cares, I highly recommend Floor Coverings International. Thank you, Charles and team, for making this such a fantastic experience!"

"Excellent. They did an amazing job cleaning the carpeting in my sister's apt. I never thought it was possible to get the stains out of her carpeting. I would highly recommend that you hire Gary and his son Gary for your project."

"The salesman Luke was very professional. The contractors that were used to install the flooring tried to short cut the installation process towards the end but was caught. If I use Empire Carpet in the future I will be specific in telling the salesman what my expectations are of the installation contractors."

"It was a small job where carpeting needed to be installed in the hallway. I had the carpet and padding. Contacted Fausto Construction. Saul reached out to me within 24 hrs. Came by two days later, submitted quote and three days later the carpet was installed and looks amazing. Customer service was excellent both from Saul and his team. I will definitely reach out to Fausto Construction for future projects. Thank you Saul for making this project so easy for me."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.

Choosing the right carpet involves assessing room usage, desired comfort levels, durability requirements, and stylistic preferences. Carpet fiber types and density should also be considered during the decision-making process.

Installing carpet over carpet may negatively impact the resale value of your home. While it offers a quick fix, potential buyers may view it as a temporary solution rather than a long-term investment in quality flooring. Properly installed and maintained flooring adds value to a home, so removing the existing carpet and installing new flooring may be a better option to attract prospective buyers and maximize resale value.

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.
