I’m young and I have a very strong desire to work and provide for others. My dream job is to be a wedding/event designer and I’m very efficient at cleaning . I’ve been in the job industry since I was 13 (now 20) I’ve done everything from babysitting to housecleaning to being a manager at a movie theater where my main qualities were cleanliness and customer satisfaction. You should hire me because I am very hard working and flexible with schedules and jobs as well as healthy and capable to do whatever needed. I also know a lot about how to design a home and make it look good as my dad is a realtor so I’ve been around the housing and hospitality marketing since I was a kid. I would love to have this job!

"This guy actually helped with every phase of my tiny house. He helped with the compressed foundation, and once my building was set, he did all the floor installation, some initial rough in plumbing, framing and tongue and groove wall installation, as well as nterior trim work. Very reasonable prices on his work and sure to get my input and do things my way. I have found him to be very honest and a hard worker. Will definitely call on him for future projects."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

If the installer is unwilling to fix the problems and you’re not interested in seeking remediation, you could hide a visually unpleasant floor. This will only work if the floor is structurally sound and the only issue you have is the way it looks. The easiest way to do this is to use large area rugs. You can also paint the floor, although that’s a labor-intensive job if you want to go the DIY route.

It's best to wait until the newly installed carpet has fully settled and dried before moving furniture back into the room. Your carpet installation professionals can provide guidance on the recommended wait time based on factors such as the type of carpet and adhesive used. Moving furniture back in too soon could damage the carpet or affect its adherence to the floor.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.
