Should flooring installers be certified or licensed?

• <div><p>When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to review the local general contractor guidelines. </p><p>Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. </p><p>As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge.

How do you budget for carpet?

• <div><p>The first step in budgeting for carpet is to determine the amount of carpet you need and the type of carpet you want. You might be tempted to opt for the least expensive option if you have a limited budget, but a low-quality carpet won’t last as long as a high-quality one. When accounting for future <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-repair-cost.htm">carpet repair costs</a>, it makes sense to buy the best-quality carpet you can afford.</p></div>

Q: What is the life expectancy of carpet tiles?

• <div><p>With proper care, carpet tile can last 10 to 20 years. These tiles are used in office settings and are designed to handle heavy foot traffic. However, tiles can start to look a little less fresh over time in super busy homes with pets and kids. Keeping extra tiles on hand to swap out will ensure your carpet looks its best.</p></div>

Q: Is 65-oz carpet good?

• <div><p>A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet&rsquo;s quality. </p></div>

Q: How often do you need to replace the carpet on stairs?

• <div><p>Decent <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">carpet will last</a> 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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Trent and Matt installed an irrigation sprinkler system and 5 tree installation. I am continuing with them for landscape maintenance. From start to finish I received a professional job. The quote was reasonable and I believe was well worth what I paid. Nice people to work with.

"please beware of this company. I hired them to lay LVP flooring in my kitchen and laundry room and stain and polyurethane about 850 ft.² of wood flooring in my rental property in Macon Ga. We agreed on a price for both projects and they began work the following weekend. The kitchen and laundry room flooring had been completed And they began to stain the wood flooring. The following weekend I came to inspect the work and to pay them for the completed portion. the kitchen and laundry room look decent, but the stain on the wood floors look like crap. There were several areas where the stain had dried before they wiped it off. I pointed these areas out to Matt and stated that those areas needed to be addressed before they laid the polyurethane. Matt stated that he would take care of it. A week later, I text Matt to ask if the troubled area had been addressed he stated that they had been over there, trying to lighten them up and still working on them. I went to look at the flooring the next day and they used paint thinner to try to lighten the spot on the floor, but they still look like crap. a week after that I text Matt to ask him about the progress on the flooring and he never responded. That was about two weeks ago and I still have not heard back from him and he did not complete job. I had to resand all of the areas that had excessive stain so I could restain them. This company has very Poor Business practices, so please do yourself a favor and not hire them to do any work in your home."

When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines.

Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
