"Carpet King did a great job cleaning my carpets and my large living room couch. They came on time, cleaned everything extremely well and finished their work promptly. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again."

"I called Scott because of all the wonderful reviews that he received on Angie's list.  I must say, he did not disappoint.  He called 10 minutes before his arrival time to inform me that he was running 15 minutes behind schedule and asked me if that was still ok.  I always appreciate a phone call when people can't be on time so that was his first brownie point.  He was extremely pleasant and I could tell that he aimed to please.  He did not push me to get certain carpets cleaned that he felt didn't need it and was very helpful in giving me tips on how to wash my white slipcovers. He did a great job and promised that if for any reason I wasn't happy with the cleaning that he would come back free of charge.  He also gave us some spot cleaner and some shoe covers if we needed to walk over the still wet carpets.  I would highly recommend Scott and PacPro Clean and will definitely plan to use him again in the future.

"George is the man. He consistently gets me great carpets at a great price, is friendly, punctual, professional, and does a fantastic job. You don't need anyone else to do your carpet. I've used several outfits in the past, and I've had the best, most reliable experience with Carpet Time. Highly, highly recommend.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

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.

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the area size and preparation needed.

Many DIYers and pros start installing flooring in the middle of a room to ensure a balanced, symmetrical layout, especially when using tiles or planks. This process is particularly helpful in odd-shaped rooms because it allows you to create a centerline from which to work. Beginning in the center will enable you to work toward the edges so the final layout feels intentional and centered, even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.

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.
