Why does padding stick to the floors?

• <div><p>There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:</p><ul><li><p>There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.</p></li><li><p>The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.</p></li><li><p>Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.</p></li></ul><p>If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-get-smell-pet-urine-out-carpet.htm">removing pet urine odors</a> to prevent future problems.</p></div>

Q: How do you install carpet without a stretcher?

• <div><p>The knee kicker tool that attaches carpet to tack strips offers some stretching capabilities, so you can use this and your own arm strength to stretch out thinner carpets across a room. But you should buy or rent a stretcher for the best possible carpet application. If you don&rsquo;t want to buy or rent a stretcher, it may be worth it to skip the DIY and leave this job to the pros or risk shortening the life of your new carpet by installing it without a stretcher.</p></div>

Q: How much does commercial carpet installation cost?

• <div><p>The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.</p></div>

Q: Will installing carpet over carpet affect the resale value of my home?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to install carpet or laminate floor?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s less expensive to install carpeting versus laminate floors, with an average cost of $1,760. However, up-front material and labor costs aren&rsquo;t the only considerations here. Laminate flooring boasts twice the lifespan of carpeting and is considered to be the wiser investment from an ROI standpoint. After all, you can lay down a rug or carpeting over the flooring, but the reverse isn&rsquo;t true.</p></div>

I made an appointment for the next day with Jack, who arrived within 5 minutes of the time. He called a little ahead of time to let us know he was on the way. Jack examined the carpet and, backed by decades of experience as an installer, knew just what to do. Nylon carpets, he explained, can...

Started out good. I expressed all my concerns about the installation of this product. I was assured that the installers knew what they were doing and that Carpet One stood behind their service. Half way through the job my confidence in the installers was eroded. The floor was left filthy and...
