Do buyers prefer carpet or laminate?

• <div><p>What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.</p></div>

How can I save money on new carpet?

• <div><p>You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-buy-carpet.htm">buying carpet at certain times of year</a> when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.</p></div>

Q: Do buyers prefer carpet or laminate?

• <div><p>What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home&rsquo;s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer&rsquo;s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.</p></div>

Q: Does replacing carpet add value?

• <div><p>Experts advise that replacing carpeting can bring a 50% to 80% return on investment. However, new carpeting doesn&rsquo;t necessarily add value to your overall home value. Because flooring value heavily depends on taste, it can be tricky to determine whether new carpet will increase your home sale price. Carpeting tends to be a renovation that increases overall comfort and aesthetics for your home, but it&rsquo;s not a big factor in value.</p></div>

Q: Can I install commercial carpet myself?

• <div><p>DIY installation is challenging; professionals ensure proper fitting, adhesive application, and long-term durability.</p></div>

Q: When should I remove old carpet?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Carpeting lasts</a> between 10 and 15 years in most cases, but keep an eye out for common signs that it's time to replace it. Persistent smells despite deep cleaning, faded color, worn-down carpet padding, and general wear and tear are signs that it's time to tear it up. If you are experiencing allergy issues indoors, this could also be a sign that new flooring is the key to a fresher home.</p></div>
