"We had a floor leveling issue in which a room was part tile over cement and part carpet over hardwood, with the tiled part being higher than the carpeted part. We wanted to remove the tile, level the entire floor, and have hard wood flooring throughout the room. This was a challenge for the other contractors and flooring people who came out to give estimates. However, Mike of Mike’s flooring came out and immediately knew how to implement a plan of action. Mike’s team responded quickly and finished the job in a timely manner. They were pleasant and respectful, took care to limit the dust, and cleaned up after themselves. Mike also gave us great remodeling advice and provided us with great referrals for other trade experts. Most importantly, Mike charged a fair price, and he and his team did a WONDERFUL job. The new hard wood flooring looks GORGEOUS! Mike is a true expert in flooring, and I highly recommend him and his team."

"The job was done to its perfection. My cherry wood flooring is more difficult than normal to refinish but Mike and his buddy made it look brand new and the whole project was communicated clearly and Mike also provide followup calls to make sure things are good after the project is done. Definitely recommend for any kind of flooring projects!"

"Floor Tailor is a small company with incredible expertise, service and commitment to complete customer satisfaction. We had them do a relatively small job (basement stairs) and they treated us like we were their biggest customer. Now, we are getting ready to carpet the rest of the house and put down hardwood floors in other areas. We will not talk to anyone else but CHUCK at Floor Tailor!"

"I contact Mr. Carpet to get a quote for hardwood floors to replace the existing carpet on the first floor and new carpeting for the second floor. The phone call was very pleasant and they were able to make an appointment for me on Saturday afternoon. When Mike came out he had plenty of floor and carpet samples to show me. He took his time and explained the differences between each level of product. After describing what I wanted he was able to help develop a plan of action. Our budget only allowed us to go with the carpeting, but Mike was very helpful in developing solutions and options. After Mike left I had a good idea of how long it would take to get the carpet delivered and installed. Mary was in constant contact with me to let me know what the status of my carpet was and I was pleasantly surprised when she called me and told me it came in early and was able to install it the next day. When the installers arrived they were very nice and courteous. They explained exactly what they were going to do, and how long it should take. They went to work immediately and worked non-stop until the job was done. They pulled out the existing (old) carpet from the first and second floor, then installed new carpeting on the second floor, including the closets, and stairway. They cleaned up as they went, and packaged the old carpeting within the guidelines of my waste removal company. Once they were finished they walked through the house showing me what they did and giving me plenty of time to inspect the work they did. I had a question about the seems and without them showing me them I don't think I would have been able to find them. I was very pleased with the outcome of the job."

"ASAP Hardwood Floors sanded/made repairs to certain boards and applied a new stain/finish. They were extremely professional throughout and performed an excellent job, especially given how competitive the pricing was. My job included repair following the removal of a gas fireplace just prior to the floors refinishing. The wood underneath the fireplace was not in great condition, but Jose and his team repaired the floor to the point you would never know anything was there before."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Many services include the removal and disposal of old carpet. Confirm with your provider.

Carpet installation costs include carpet type (material, weave), room size, subfloor preparation, and labor costs. Getting multiple quotes provides a clearer picture of expected expenses.

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.

Nylon carpet is widely considered one of the most durable and longest-lasting options, typically lasting 12 to 15 years. Its durability comes from its high resistance to wear, tear, stains, fading, and abrasions. It also resists liquid spills, insects, mold, and mildew, making it ideal for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways. For even greater longevity, frieze or Berber carpets are excellent choices that can last up to 20 to 25 years.

Beyond the material, a carpet's construction is key to its durability. Low-pile carpets with short, tight loops hold up better against wear than high-pile options. As a synthetic material, nylon is available in a vast range of colors and styles and often feels remarkably soft.

Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.
