Keeping a clean and tidy home has been a part of my life since I can remember; my sister and I grew up helping my mom “crazy” clean the house.\n\nI have taken that into my adulthood, and have been cleaning homes of friends and families since. I also briefly worked at a hotel as a housekeeper in 2023. \n\nI currently work a full time job as a controls analyst, but would like to supplement my income. I enjoy cleaning, and love the feeling of stepping back and basking in the ambiance of neatness. \n\nI am reliable, detail oriented, and above all, a hard worker. Let me be the next one to clean your home!

I have over 30 plus years of experience in the cleaning field I have done anything from deep queens move outs make ready strip and waxing of floors high and low speed buffing bonneting shampoo and extracting of carpets I've worked at the learning stay Hospital straight out of high school for about 4 years and then I've done hotels restaurants construction sites supervised and train for DNA services in Sedgwick County a couple times with equals out to approximately 10 years and they do commercial facilities and businesses. I've done deep & general cleaning such as dusting Windows trash sweep mop vacuum, things like that. I believe you should get what you're pay for and the quality should most definitely match the quantity. It may sound crazy but I actually enjoy it for one once you complete whatever cleaning task it may be you can always tell the difference and it's so nice to look at a job well done so not only is it making the client happy it makes me happy as well.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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

Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the area size and preparation needed.

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.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.
