"I called Eric at King Carpet. Eric called me back and came out looked at the carpet sent me a estimate which i approved online. Eric called to set up a day to come out and clean carpet. I came into work the next day and couldn't believe it was the same carpet. All the stains were gone the carpet was clean and looked new again. Eric called me when he was leaving left me a message locked up. Very proffesional and very pleasant. Price for the work he did was very resonable. I would tell anyone that needs there carpets cleaned to call Eric you won't be sorry. I will recommend him to anyone looking to get there carpets cleaned."

"Impressive Air Duct Cleaning Service - Improved Air Quality! I recently had the pleasure of using VenWorx for their Air Duct Cleaning and Dryer/Bathroom Vent Cleaning services, and I must say, the results were outstanding. From the moment they completed the job, I noticed a remarkable difference in the air quality within my home. VenWorx's team of professionals opened my eyes to the importance of this service for maintaining a healthy living environment. It's incredible how something as simple as air duct cleaning could make such a significant impact on my daily life. I highly recommend VenWorx to anyone looking to improve their home's air quality. Don't make the same assumption I did; your furnace filter alone might not be enough to tackle all the hidden dust and debris in your ducts and vents. VenWorx's efficient and friendly team is equipped to handle the job, leaving you with a fresher, healthier living space."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

A stair runner can be cheaper than a carpet and will definitely save money over the cost of refinishing hardwood floors and stairs. The price depends, however, on the fabric and quality of the runner. A wool stair runner can be more expensive than an inexpensive polyester carpet and vice versa. Keep an eye on your budget, knowing that the higher quality the carpet and the carpet pad, the better the carpet will wear over time.

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.

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew
