"I will never use another service. They are so friendly and got the carpet much cleaner than I thought possible. Incredible personal service, and just a great job. To top it off it cost less than than any other quotes I got and was, I believe, much better service. Paying less for better service- what a deal!!!"

"I was extremely impressed with this company. From the very beginning, with the booking and the response time. They arrived on time, and answered my concerns regarding the use of chemicals. I was informed they use plant base chemicals. Which was high in my book. They exude professionalism with their upbeat personality and attitude. I truly appreciated their attention to detail and the care that went into my Deep Cleaning. They truly went above and beyond my expectations, and it was very affordable. I highly recommend this company for all cleaning projects.. Definitely 5 stars!!!!!James, Shiyla and Juanita, you guys ROCK!!!!"

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet’s quality. 

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

You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.
