"My experience with Grout Works was exceptional in regard to off site cleaning of 2 large oriental area rugs. The owner, David Gentry, is very knowledgeable of carpet fibers, weaves, dyes etc. I was immediately comfortable upon meeting him. I highly recommend Grout Works."

"I hired Harvey to do a unique carpet install that I had some trouble getting quotes for. I did get a few quotes eventually and Harvey was not the lowest but he was close and he really seemed to know what he was doing. He insisted on getting set up directly with the carpet manufacturer so he could control the entire process where the other bids required me to handle the logistics. I was extremely impressed with the quality and professionalism from Harvey and his crew. Harvey even had some extra rugs made from the remnants of my very expensive carpet for a very small amount of money. I will definitely work with them again."

"Wyatt did a fantastic job on my family’s new laminate floors. The job was well organized, clean and efficient. Wyatt was courteous to myself and my family’s needs during the project. He never left a mess at the end of the day and communication was easy. I would gladly use Watts Construction on future projects."

"Technician was friendly and professional, he was running slightly late however the office let me know and that part of it was well handled. I did knock off one star because the project was quoted between $150 and $170 based on my square footage over the phone and the bill was $100 more than that, payment options were also limited to check or cash. I was a bit disappointed with the quality of the clean which cost another star. The carpets were very wet and took 3 days to dry. When they did dry there was a stiff chemical feel to the carpet in particular in the closets and corners where not all of the cleaner was extracted."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Decent carpet will last 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’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.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

Smaller carpet installations may take less than a day, while full-home installations can take several days. However, your carpet installation timeline will ultimately depend on a few factors, including the number of rooms you’re renovating, the project’s total square footage, and the carpet type. Installation will take longer if your carpet company needs to repair your subfloor or remove old tile flooring.

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

A stair runner can be cheaper than a carpet and will definitely save money over the cost of refinishing hardwood floors and stairs. The price depends, however, on the fabric and quality of the runner. A wool stair runner can be more expensive than an inexpensive polyester carpet and vice versa. Keep an eye on your budget, knowing that the higher quality the carpet and the carpet pad, the better the carpet will wear over time.
