"Stretched our carpeting in both the front room and dining room (large rooms). The carpet was damp in the dining room so they brought over a big fan to dry it out. They also had to apply latex to part of the backing to assure it would be strong enough to stretch in one section. The individual they sent was extremely knowledgeable and did everything to save the carpeting for the time being. He did a wonderful job.

"Two workers arrived during the planned window, introduced themselves, covered their shoes and got right to work after being shown the carpets. They worked steadily for 1-1/2 hours. The carpets all looked and smelled much better when done. One of the guys told me not to leave the two moveable rugs on our wood floors as tjey were still damp and could warp the floors, and they moved them to the driveway outside to dry. I found this intelligent and very considerate. They were careful to put small foal blocks under furniture legs on the wall to wall carpet, too. I was very pleased."

"Oscar Sr. and Oscar Jr. are an incredible team. Both are very personable and knowledgeable in their trade. They did a great job removing our old carpet, and installing the new carpet. They rolled up all the old carpet and taped each roll to keep it together, and helped me put it all on a cart so I could take it to the street on garbage day. They helped us move big furniture out of the room and then back in after the carpet was installed. Awesome guys and we highly recommend them."

"They did a great job. The estimate was very reasonable and they had a very good selection of carpets to choose from that they brought out with them at the estimate. From estimate through the install they were very responsive. The installers moved a good portion of our furniture during the installation and they stayed late to get the job done in one day. The owner came back after the install to make sure that everything was to our expectations. I would definitely recommend them to others."

"We were looking to replace carpet and how a few quotes from other providers and Rick was able to provide us with the highest quality carpet at a rate that was over 20% cheaper vs. the competition. The installation team did a great job moving our furniture and replaced 2,300 sq ft of carpet in 8hrs. I highly recommend."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Carpet is an effective natural insulator, so it will make a room slightly warmer than laminate. The material’s insulating properties also make carpeted rooms more efficient for temperature regulation.

The cost to install carpet is $1,780 on average for 330 square feet, the size of an average living room. This cost could range from $200 to $5,000, depending on the amount of carpet, material, and type of carpet. 

If you need 500 square feet of carpet, it’ll cost $1,500 to $5,500, while 1,000 square feet of carpet costs $3,000 to $11,000. Polyester is one of the more affordable options, ranging from $1 to $3 per square foot. Wool is a more luxurious option, ranging from $4 to $20 per square foot

Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

Yes, there are plenty of ways to lay stair carpet without grippers, such as carpet adhesive, magnetic flooring, or staples. Adhesive may be your best bet if you don’t want grippers, as it will most likely stick the best and cause the least amount of damage. However, if you’re looking for an easy fix, grippers are one of the best solutions you can purchase.
