"I hired this company for a second project -to paint wrought iron shutters on a home. J Carpenter was great to work with - he went to the home the next day after initial contact and provided me with an estimate. He finished the job within 2 days. He did an excellent job with this project. I would highly recommend this company."

"AMAZING Job, the entire process couldn’t have been easier!!! I requested a quote from the owner Kelsey and was asking for a lot, 900 square feet of lvp and 600 square feet of carpet including a flight of steps. I was a little worried at first that she wouldn’t be able to handle a task this tall on her own which I expressed, she quickly squashed all worries when she told me that she has multiple employees that she hired from a Veterans job expo. I saw her attention to detail when giving the quote I knew regardless of the price she came up with I was going to hire her company for the job. It was an added bonus when she beat the other 2 quotes I previously received. She treats her clients and her employees like family, the work was impeccable and I couldn’t have been happier choosing her company.. highly recommend McCoy Flooring to anyone looking to update the look of the homes. Thanks Kelsey!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

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.

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.

Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is five to 15 years. For the best results, you should always use the right type of carpet glue for the area you're using it in. There are carpet glues for high-traffic areas, which are more high-quality and durable than others.

If you don’t put padding under your carpet, the carpet won’t be protected from wear on the underside. This could result in a shorter life span for your carpet and increased carpet repair costs over time. An unpadded carpet can also be less comfortable to walk on, depending on your subfloor and the type of carpet.
