"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!"

"Gary from The Real McCoy Carpet Cleaning did a fabulous job cleaning my 30 year old cream colored carpet. A previous carpet cleaner couldn't get it clean and said that I would have to get a new carpet. But Gary did a superb job and it looks great!"

"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

Installing carpet over carpet may affect the warranty of the new carpet. Check with the manufacturer or retailer regarding their warranty policies. Many warranties stipulate specific installation guidelines, and installing carpet over carpet may not comply with these requirements. Voiding the warranty due to improper installation methods can leave you without help in case of issues or defects with the new carpet.

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.

If the installer is unwilling to fix the problems and you’re not interested in seeking remediation, you could hide a visually unpleasant floor. This will only work if the floor is structurally sound and the only issue you have is the way it looks. The easiest way to do this is to use large area rugs. You can also paint the floor, although that’s a labor-intensive job if you want to go the DIY route.

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.
