"A team of three woman spent 4 hours in the house, but as they charge by the job, this was fine.  But after 12 person hours, I expected a very clean house.  They did a lot of work, and one always notices what's not done, but there were what I considered basics that were missed.  There's a corner where I keep a litter box for the cat, and I pointed out in advance that there would be dust on the woodwork and shelves in the area and that it would need special attention.  But before they left, I called them in and showed them that they had left litter behind on the floor (a lot of litter against the walls and in the corners) as well as the dust.  Evidently, they had steamed the area without sweeping up the litter and created something of a mess which they did not see. They did then reclean the area. I also pointed out that the tubs would come smooth with soap scum remover, but though they had certainly cleaned the tubs, there was still a residue left that I had to scrub off.
I don't think they did much in the utility room, which is actually part of the kitchen.  I asked them to go back and clean the sink, which they had neglected.  This is not a paint-spattered old sink, but a very nice white porcelain sink, which I would have thought they would have cleaned automatically.
In two of the upstairs bedrooms we have rugs which go partly under the beds on wood floors.  When I checked under the beds, I saw that they had not vacuumed or dust mopped in these areas.
They did, however. do a nice job in my daughter's room and bath, which is a challenge. They did clean the window ledges and sills, which many people miss.  
I had to ask them to turn off their loud music at one point. Even when I've had workmen in, they were considerate enough not to play music, given that I was home.
They did not have a receipt on hand to give me.
I hope I am not being unfair. I don't really like writing the reviews. I'm hard to please, but I've had services do a better job in much less time, and I'm surprised that all the reviews have been A's for this service. I cancelled the service after the first cleaning and forfeited the $40 charge for supplies.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

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 costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.

Costs depend on carpet type, labor rates, and additional services like padding or transitions.

On average, installing carpet costs between $3 and $11 per square foot, depending on factors like the carpet material, style, and labor rates in your area. Sometimes, installers will include carpet removal in these costs, so if you don’t have any carpet to remove, you can save time and spend less money on labor.
