"Jackie was very pleasent on the phone and we made arrangements for a Free Estimate. I agreed Ron was giving me a fair price and he did a Great Job right then streching and tacking down the edges of my carpet. He was very knowledgeable and gave me some good advice about carpets. He was very professional and nice to chat with while he worked."

"Our business hired Perfect Choice to install VCT for us. A week prior to move in, we discovered the current carpet could not be cleaned and we would need new carpet for the whole suite. Marcia and Jim were both very accommodating and made it happen for us on short notice. Their crew came after hours to get the job done. Every interaction we had with every employee was both pleasant and professional. We will definitely be using perfect choice for all of our flooring needs in the future and recommend them to everyone!"

"I read alot of bad reviews, about Empire. However, my project was completed efficiently from start to finish in a very professional and satisfactory manner. For myself, Empire turned out to be the right choice for my project. I am very pleased with the experience and the results. Mark was an excellent, experienced salesman. He knew is product and how to direct me on my request. Pepe installed the carpet I purchased, ALONE, in 4 bedrooms. He worked nonstop, and did a great job. The carpet is still tight, no nail tacks, and looks beautiful."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.

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.

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

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.

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew
