Q: Do you have to install underlayment for laminate flooring?

• <div><p>Yes, installing underlayment underneath the laminate flooring is necessary. The underlayment has many benefits like preventing water damage to your subfloors, insulating the floor for sound, and providing an even surface for the planks to sit on.</p><p>When you skip the underlayment, you can end up with serious issues, including water damage to your subfloors, noisy planks, and an uneven floor.</p></div>

Q: What kind of carpet wears the best?

• <div><p>There are many<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-types-carpet-fibers.htm"> types of carpet,</a> but nylon carpet with short loops tends to be the most durable type as it resists stains and holds up against wear and fading. In terms of longevity, frieze or Berber carpet are also excellent choices that can last up to 20 to 25 years, which is longer than most other types of carpet.</p></div>

Q: What are the dangers of using budget garage flooring products?

• <div><p>As with anything you buy, be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. Some low-cost flooring products can contain chemicals that release harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the form of fumes that can be inhaled or dust that can cause skin conditions.</p><p>Even good-quality products can be dangerous for DIY-ers who don&rsquo;t take proper precautions. Always carefully read manufacturer instructions and wear the recommended protective gear when working with paints and other chemicals. You can also hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/garage-floor-coatings/">local garage flooring pro</a> with the experience and equipment needed to perform the installation safely with no lingering fumes or debris.</p></div>

Q: Is it more cost effective to lay carpet or carpet tiles?

• <div><p>Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.</p></div>

Q: How often do you need to replace the carpet on stairs?

• <div><p>Decent <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">carpet will last</a> around 10 years on stairs. Some less durable carpets, like polyester, will only last five years on stairs. The ideal carpet, like wool or nylon, can last about 15 to 25 years. You&rsquo;ll know when to replace it when it starts wearing down. You may have to replace it sooner if it's stained, whether due to water damage or pets.</p></div>
