"It was very easy to get a hold of Steve to schedule our carpets to be cleaned.  Steve and his son arrived on time, looked professional, and communicated how they were going to do things.  They made sure to protect our house with extra materials where the large hoses drag across the walls.  They helped us move furniture and were very organized starting with the upstairs and then downstairs.  They helped us find where the smells were coming from (many doggies), and we had them treated and cleaned.  We have hired a lot of carpet cleaners, but I have to say that hiring Steve and Tony from ABL Carpet Cleaning was a fantastic decision, and we couldn't be more happy with the job."

David called before he arrived and was on time.  He spent a good deal of time carefully working on the many spots on the sofa and dining chairs.  He explained the difference between cleaning cotton upholstery (which my sofa is) and synthetic fabrics, and how cotton really absorbs/holds the stains/spots and is more challenging to get clean.  Also because it is off-white, it shows everything!   I was given a 5% discount for being an Angie's List member.

When the items dried the next day, I noticed some remaining spots, called him, and no questions asked, he said he'd come back and redo those areas that needed it.  He came back and tackled the remaining spots and all items turned out beautifully.  There was no charge for the second visit.

David is very knowledgeable and shared some tip on how I can better take care of spots on my furniture and carpet when they happen (I've used Resolve for years on pet stains on the carpet, and apparently that's not the best choice).  Also, he is kind and has an old-school gentlemanly way about him. 

All in all, just first-rate service and results.  I thank David, and will definitely use Bell for my future carpet and upholstery cleaning needs!

"My carpet install project was just one 10'x12' room, and I sourced the carpet padding and carpet from Home Depot. After researching online how difficult it is to install carpet well, I decided to source a professional. I submit a request for quote online at around 7PM on a Saturday evening, and Jody reached out to me within minutes to schedule an appointment next-day on Sunday at 10am. The install crew was incredibly punctual - I received a knock at my door at exactly the 10am start time. They had the carpet padding installed in less than 30 minutes. We discovered during carpet installation that the carpet I received from Home Depot was not cut to proper length (turned out to be a mixture of a factory defect roll and bad consulting) so I discussed options with Potteiger. They were able to source a higher quality carpet for a comparable price. Incredibly, they were out the next day on Monday morning with the new better carpet and finished the install promptly. I highly recommend"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on carpet type, labor rates, and additional services like padding or transitions.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

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.

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.

Carpet installation costs include carpet type (material, weave), room size, subfloor preparation, and labor costs. Getting multiple quotes provides a clearer picture of expected expenses.
