"We had a lot of overspray on a rather large area of industrial carpet. Tony sent his crew the next day and they got all of the overspray out of the carpet. The carpet looks brand new!! The 2 gentlemen got right down to work and did a phenomenal job! I, most definitely, will not hesitate to recommend or use them again"

"I had an excellent experience with this carpet cleaning service. The work was done professionally, on time, and with great attention to detail. My carpets had stains and heavy traffic areas from family & kids, that I honestly didn?t think would come out, but they now look almost brand new. The technician Anthony was respectful of my home, explained the process clearly, and made sure everything was done right before leaving. The results were impressive and the whole place smelled fresh and clean afterward. If you?re looking for someone reliable who takes pride in their work and delivers real results, I highly recommend this company for carpet cleaning."

"Needed carpet removed and hardwood put down in all my bedrooms. The work was done in a timely manner and price was negotiable. However, you need to use the company’s hardwood, which is of lower quality than what I initially wanted. Also, the workers spilled some stuff on my furniture, which landed me with random spots of dissolved stain on my tables and end tables. Financing 0% for 1yr was a plus though, so overall the choice worked well for me."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Carpet installers use furniture sliders or blankets to protect your furniture during the installation process. They handle each piece with care to minimize the risk of damage. Additionally, they may employ techniques such as lifting and shifting furniture rather than dragging it across the floor to prevent scratches or other marks. If you have particularly delicate or heavy items that need to be moved, discuss special handling with the installers beforehand.

Several types of flooring can be installed over existing tile, provided the current tiles are in good condition. Options include vinyl, vinyl plank, laminate, engineered wood, hardwood, carpet, and cork. Among these, various types of vinyl and engineered wood are the most common choices due to their versatility. Alternatively, you can install new tiles on top of your current ones if you like tile floors but want to update the look. Before proceeding with any new flooring, it's crucial to ensure your existing tiles are not damaged; otherwise, they will need to be removed first.

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.

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.

Yes, there are plenty of ways to lay stair carpet without grippers, such as carpet adhesive, magnetic flooring, or staples. Adhesive may be your best bet if you don’t want grippers, as it will most likely stick the best and cause the least amount of damage. However, if you’re looking for an easy fix, grippers are one of the best solutions you can purchase.
