"Mr. Carpet installed wall to wall carpet over an entire floor of my house, and at a speed that is breath-taking, really.  
My Mother-in-law was coming to visit and I wanted carpet before she got there, and they made it happen!  They were super nice about it too!  The carpet is gorgeous, the padding is nice and thick.  They moved furniture to get the job done without complaining.
Not cheap, but well worth every penny spent!  It's like gaining the use of a huge chunk of the house that was too cold and unpleasant to use before.   I have not yet found one imperfection in their work.  I will never buy carpet from anyone else.  And, thanks to this experience I am thinking of carpeting a whole another floor of my house!  I'm not even big on carpet kind of person, or I wasn't.  Definitely, the right place to buy carpet.

"I had an excellent experience working with M Craft. He is highly professional, responsible, and diligent throughout the entire project. I needed a full flooring replacement in my newly purchased condo, which involved removing old carpet, installing multiple sublayers, and laying down the final hardwood surface. The quality of his work exceeded my expectations, and I’m extremely happy with the results. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for top-notch flooring work."

We have used Exposition Carpet for several carpet installations over many years in our finished basement, and have consistently found the best pricing, ease of schedule and quality installation thru them. I especially like that it's a family business and you are dealing directly with owners and not with a salesman that doesn't even know who his/her boss is. The installers have worked their for years and that says a lot.

After going through a back porch remodel enclosing to a mudroom, we wanted a pet friendly, water resistant and durable floor so we went with vinyl plank. The store had many options, and time frame to get material was within a week. We checked out a 'sale' prior at a trendy well known Lincoln Avenue store, only to be met with double the cost and attitude. So we ended up back at Exposition and it was a done deal within 2 weeks.

I thought I had reviewed them on AL, but realized I hadn't when the list asked if members had any feedback.

We wouldn't hesitate to use them for any flooring needs.

Flooring Installation FAQs, answered by experts

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

The best flooring materials for a mudroom are porcelain and ceramic tiles. Both are easy to clean and maintain, and they're also water-resistant and highly durable. If you're not a fan of those types, you can also choose another nonporous flooring for your mudroom, such as stone or sealed concrete. Stay away from linoleum, cork, hardwood, and engineered wood, as water and moisture in your mudroom will damage these quickly.

Vacuum regularly, clean spills promptly, and schedule professional deep cleaning annually.

Because concrete is porous, installing flooring directly onto the surface is not a good idea. Any moisture within the concrete due to atmospheric conditions or seasonal humidity can seep into your flooring, causing warping or damage. In most cases, you’ll need to install at least a moisture barrier between the concrete and the flooring you choose.

Steam mops can be a better option than traditional mops because the steam can lift stubborn dirt from floors without using chemicals, and it also kills bacteria and dust mites. However, steam mops have drawbacks: they are more expensive, require an electrical outlet, and are not suitable for all flooring types, such as laminate or hardwood, which can be damaged by the steam.

Regular mopping can also sanitize floors effectively when done with the right cleaning products and techniques, though it may require more effort. The main advantage of a traditional mop is its versatility, as it can be used on any type of flooring. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your floor type, budget, and cleaning preferences.
