"

I called Drakes for an estimate on two small wool area rugs.  Scott gave me an estimate that was very competitive and he was most gracious in spite of the small size of the job.  As it turned out we decided to have a few more small area rugs cleaned at the same time.  Scott is very knowledgeable and most willing to explain the process and answer questions.

He picked up, cleaned and delivered the rugs promptly.  The rugs looked great.  There was a stubborn stain that couldn't be removed but was greatly improved.

Scott also provided information about rug pads, provided me with swatches and even gave me a leftover piece of padding.  He is patient and generous with his time in spite of a very busy schedule.  We are delighted to have a carpet cleaning professional we know we can count on for all future jobs.

"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"

"when I called GTS Future Cleaning Services to clean my carpets I was not sure how the results would turn out. My carpets were worn and needed to be replaced. I gave them a shot and could not be happier with the results! My cream carpets were sparkling when the technician left my home. One of the best parts of the service is how fast your carpets dry! Highly recommend GTS Future Cleaning Services!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.

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.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.

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.

If you want your carpet to last as long as possible, then yes, you need to install carpet padding. Carpet padding creates a layer of protection between the back of your carpet and the floor beneath it, which decreases friction and reduces wear and tear. Aside from that, carpet padding also helps absorb noise and makes your carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.
