"My floors in my kitchen and laundry room were completed yesterday. They look amazing and just what I wanted. I was only very specific about one part of the tile to be laid and they made it happen and it looks exactly the way I wanted. They made sure the cuts were correct before they did them, didn’t waste any of the tile. I had porcelain tile and a glass tile accent strip placed. Not a common accent strip in a floor but I wanted a bright and unique accent strip and they made it happen perfectly. They didn’t waste time, but did take their time so it would look amazing. I’m very glad they were available to do the work. Any more tile work and I will not hesitate to hire them as they did what I asked, for a very affordable price, and stayed true to the quoted price. And they also clean up after themselves so don’t worry about a mess as they don’t leave one. I had to schedule my appointment 3 weeks out from the day of the quote but it was worth the wait."

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.

Many DIYers and pros start installing flooring in the middle of a room to ensure a balanced, symmetrical layout, especially when using tiles or planks. This process is particularly helpful in odd-shaped rooms because it allows you to create a centerline from which to work. Beginning in the center will enable you to work toward the edges so the final layout feels intentional and centered, even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.

Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on space size and complexity.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

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.
