Customers say: Quality work

"The service was prompt- they showed up on time and did excellent work. I was very pleased with the new hardwood hallway. They also installed indoor-outdoor carpet on my porch and did a neat job. They disposed of the old carpeting and cleaned up all the debris. I was very happy with both the work and the price."

"Contacted Matt based on high marks on Home Advisor. He scheduled an appointment to meet with me at home, brought samples and I contracted for him to do a craft room in vinyl plank and recarpet our bedroom. His quote was fair and reasonable. The day of the job his crew arrived on time, went to work and demonstrated total professionalism. The work was completed in about eight hours. They carefully moved the furniture, removed the existing floor covering and laid quality vinyl plank and Stainmaster carpet beautifully. The plank was the same as the adjacent great room and hall, and it was laid so the boards looked like they were part of the original job. The carpet installation was flawless. They cleaned up very well and removed all of the old materials. Matt's is a first class operation, professional staff who know what they are doing. I have had some bad experiences with service companies in Delmarva and I am a critical customer. Matt met or exceeded all of my expectations. I would recommend him to anyone."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

No, it isn’t less expensive to install carpet compared to vinyl floors. The cost of installing carpet can range between $3 and $11 per square foot, so it falls just over the cost of installing vinyl flooring, at an average of $3 to $7 per square foot. High-quality carpeting can also range much higher, even up to $20 per square foot.

Yes, professional installation services often include the removal and disposal of old flooring, which can include materials like carpet. This process may also involve preparing the subfloor for the new installation. It is recommended to confirm the full scope of the service with your provider.

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.

Installing carpet over carpet may negatively impact the resale value of your home. While it offers a quick fix, potential buyers may view it as a temporary solution rather than a long-term investment in quality flooring. Properly installed and maintained flooring adds value to a home, so removing the existing carpet and installing new flooring may be a better option to attract prospective buyers and maximize resale value.
