"Greg McFarland did an excellent job of stretching just about all the carpet in our home, which included 4 bedrooms upstairs, 3 walk-in closets, the hallway, loft, along with all the stairs and large livingroom. He was very professional, pleasant to work with and I would and did recommend him to someone else. Our carpets look great and I no longer trip over the huge bumps."

"We had an urgent need for a professional who could pull up our carpet and inspect it for mice damage and pet damage to the pad. Nick cane out to our house within a couple hours and was able to take care of not only the carpet and carpet pad inspection but also cleaning and sanitizing our carpeting. Would highly recommend and will likely be using all brands for their other services in the future."

"Stepan of Stride Construction and his associate Russell did a fantastic job very nicely finished. They replaced a thousand sq feet of 20 year old carpet with wood laminate. From carpet removal and disposal, to prep, and install and finish work these 2 young men did a wonderful job. We love our new floors. All on schedule and with in estimate which was the lowest bid of three. We highly recommend Stride Construction to anyone needing flooring"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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

New carpet installation offers warmth, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. It can improve indoor air quality by trapping dust particles and provides a sound-dampening effect, which is beneficial for creating quiet environments.

In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it’s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.

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 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
