"It took several emails before any contact was made as they were not used to email contacts.   I had to change the date originally selected and it caused a lot of confusion on the correct date.  So several phone calls were had.  Finally a date was scheduled and confirmed.
But on the confirmed date they did not show up as schedule at the scheduled time.  After several emails and phone calls found out that the crew had  not been notified of this scheduled cleaning as the scheduler had been in the hospital.  They then planned to do the next day on a Saturday.
They called at 7:30 am on Saturday to confirm the 10 am time and to get the correct address as they were given the wrong one.  They did show up ahead of schedule. 
I was quite concerned though because I am a single woman and a red unmarked pick-up truck showed up with two black men getting old equipment out of the back of the truck that had duck tape on the hose of one of the pieces of equipment.
They identified themselves once at the door and started bringing in their equipment.  They needed to know where there was a water outlet and where they could empty their dirty water.  I have never had this asked of me by other clean companies I have used in the past.  They reported that they do not use steam cleaning equipment as do other cleaning companies and use older cleaning equipment as they do a better job.
They also do not move any furniture as other cleaning companies have.  Luckily I am only 65 and quite agle yet and moved all the chairs out of the way so they could at least clean around the two eating tables and then I moved everything backed myself as they suggested that at least 24 hours take place before any movement was made on the freshly cleaned carpet..
So other than the concerns listed above, they SURPRISING did quite a nice cleaning job.  Some of the spots that other cleaning companies were not able to get out were gone and are still gone.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

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.

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

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.
