"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

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:

  • Stains that are impossible to remove.

  • A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.

  • An increase in allergy symptoms.

  • The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.

When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.

The life span of carpet in a home with children and animals depends on factors like the carpet material’s quality, how frequently you clean and maintain it, and the level of foot traffic. On average, carpets need to be replaced every five to 15 years. Signs of wear, matting, or persistent odors may indicate that it's time to contact a local flooring company to replace your carpet.

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.

Decent carpet will last around 10 years on stairs. Some less durable carpets, like polyester, will only last five years on stairs. The ideal carpet, like wool or nylon, can last about 15 to 25 years. You’ll know when to replace it when it starts wearing down. You may have to replace it sooner if it's stained, whether due to water damage or pets.
