"Over the past decade we have been completely satisfied with Mike's work and he has been the only carpet cleaning technician we have used to clean our home twice a year every year. Mike has always given great results. Carpets, furniture and even blinds were cleaned expertly and professionally with outstanding results. He starts on time and completes the job in the estimated time frame. He communicates plainly the nature and extent of the work. He offers alternative options and makes suggestions for cleaning and protection solutions. If you are looking for a competent, courteous and reasonably priced professional with a knack for getting things clean, then Mike's your man. He also did us a solid when we needed our floor and carpet dried after we had a broken water line. We give Mike 5 stars."

"Tim Spencer and pardner installed 125 yards of carpet in our recently purchased home. He was sent by the company who sold us the carpet. He was very professional and easy to work with. He showed concern for our convenience and was very informative about carpets, I will call Tim with any future flooring projects."
"They did an excellent job on our carpets. The carpets came out clean and refreshed. They also cleaned a couple of chairs. These too came out great. I would highly recommend Kayle for and carpet and furniture cleaning project."

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.
You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.
It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.
The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.
If the installer is unwilling to fix the problems and you’re not interested in seeking remediation, you could hide a visually unpleasant floor. This will only work if the floor is structurally sound and the only issue you have is the way it looks. The easiest way to do this is to use large area rugs. You can also paint the floor, although that’s a labor-intensive job if you want to go the DIY route.
