Q: How long does commercial carpet installation take?

• <div><p>Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on space size and complexity.</p></div>

Q: How do carpet installers protect my furniture during the installation process?

• <div><p>Carpet installers use furniture sliders or blankets to protect your furniture during the installation process. They handle each piece with care to minimize the risk of damage. Additionally, they may employ techniques such as lifting and shifting furniture rather than dragging it across the floor to prevent scratches or other marks. If you have particularly delicate or heavy items that need to be moved, discuss special handling with the installers beforehand.</p></div>

Q: How long after carpet is laid can you put furniture on it?

• <div><p>In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it&rsquo;s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it&rsquo;s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.</p></div>

Q: Is it suitable for every carpet type?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
