"The installers showed up on time and worked throughout to get the job done in one day. The installation was professional and timely. They cleaned up afterwards. I was very happy with the outcome and would recommend them highly to anyone who needs carpet installation. I chose high quality carpeting and did get some other estimates and thought the price quoted was fair."

"My initial call to Greg of Ashley Ryan Flooring resulted in an immediate appointment to begin work on the day I requested: the day after Thanksgiving. Greg and his helper (I'm sorry: I don't remember his name) arrived at exactly the time they promised the Friday after Thanksgiving. After they examined the tile, thinset,and grout materials I'd already purchased for the job, they told me the tile company had sold me far too much tile, and the thinset was expired. They feared the grout material was also unusable, but they promised to let me know if I needed to purchase more. I wrote them a check to purchase more materials; they returned and gave me the receipt. Then they got to work with the destruction of the hideous, old white tile and stained, dirty, ancient carpet--all of which I've hated for 12 years. Seven hours later (with no apparent break in between), and they had completely removed the tile and carpet from the entire area. 
They returned the next day (Saturday) at about 9 a.m.--after a text message informed me they were on their way--and they spent the entire day (about 8 hours) laying the most perfect tile I've ever seen. They lined up the new dining room/living room grout lines with the kitchen tile I layed 7 years ago. The match was perfect. You can't even tell the tile was newly laid--except for dirty grout lines in the old tile (which I have since scrubbed like crazy so they'll match the beautiful Ashley Ryan tiles).
They returned on Monday to grout it all--and they even removed the toilet to tile the bathroom floor, and they tiled the closets--all of which I had told them "wasn't necessary." Greg confessed he wanted to do this because he was a "perfectionist about these things." And I informed him, "That's all I ask, Greg: perfection." He agreed. And perfection is exactly what Ashley Ryan Flooring delivered. I now have an enviably perfect tiling job for the lowest bid of any I received. I couldn't ask for more. While he was here, Greg offered to give me an estimate for tiling my bedroom and bathroom. He suggested structural improvements to the bathroom shower pan--and offered to include that work with the tile job. Now I'm saving my money so Greg and Ashley Ryan can come tile my bedroom and master bath with all the tile I have left.

Carpet Stretching 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.

The best solvent for removing carpet glue depends on its chemical composition. Most carpet glue reacts well to a solvent made from orange oil. Use mineral spirits to remove tar-based glue, which has a darker, brownish tint. Methylene chloride paint stripper and lacquer thinner should also work, but beware of the nasty and dangerous fumes.

It’s best to have a pro stretch your carpet before having it cleaned. A loose carpet is more difficult to clean, but a stretched carpet will be fixed firmly in place once the job is done. Cleaning a carpet can loosen it depending on the technique used. 

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

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 removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

The best way to fix carpet matting is to start by vacuuming thoroughly in multiple directions to lift the flattened fibers. For more stubborn spots, apply moisture with an ice cube or steam, then fluff the carpet using a spoon, comb, or carpet brush. A blow dryer or warm iron over a damp towel can also help restore the carpet’s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory.
