"We just had our basement finished and there was alot of drywall dust kicked up. We hired Joey's Carpet Care to come clean our ducts. Our first interaction with Joey's was quick with them texting me a quote that was very reasonable. The guys texted before they came and were super professional, friendly and courteous. They were both very respectful of our home and took the time to show us what the ducts looked like before and after the cleaning. The cost was lower than even quoted and it was enjoyable working with Joey's. I would highly recommend them and will use them again in the future should we need any services."

"Prior to calling Floor Coverings International, we had previously priced out carpet with 2 other local companies.  We did not receive written quotes from the other 2 companies, just verbal quotes.  Jonathan Wilk, the owner, called and set up an appointment to meet in our home at 4pm on a Thursday night.  He came on time.  We thought it was a good idea to come to our home with samples.
Well, Jonathan came and talked with us for a while to "get to know his customers".  Which is fine, but we want to talk about carpet!  We did a walk through of our house and discussed problem/high-traffice areas.  He took measurements and video for his installers.  Up to this point it was about 5:30 or 6pm.  He went to his car to work on the quote.  We ate dinner while he did that.
When he came back in, he had a very detailed layout of our home and then showed us the sales pitch on his computer. He showed us the samples he selected and we discussed the price on the quote.  It was really high and not competitive with the other 2 companies.  Then we talked about seeing a cheaper carpet.  The quote for that was $6,600.  We did get nicer padding for the family room as our house sits on a slab foundation. We selected the carpet and were asked to paid for 1/2 of it upfront so that the carpet could be ordered.  Since we were in the process of painting, he agreed that we could stall installation for a week or so until the painting was completed.  Finally, at 8pm, Mr Wilk left our home.  He is a nice enough guy but when you have just gotten home from work, squeezing in dinner and getting kids ready for bed, a 4 hour spiel is not what we wanted.  We could have done without the beginning getting to know you portion and the video presentation.  Also, when he first quoted us a carpet that was well out of our budget, we felt like we couldn't afford good quality carpet.  That made us feel like we were broke!  It may have been better for him to ask us what price range we were looking at.
 Installation went well.  It went over 2 days.  Jonathan told us what to do to prepare for installation.  Basically, we had to clear all the tops of furniture, remove electronics, etc.  Install was coordinated by another fellow, Stephen.  He had 2-3 installers come and they removed and hauled away all the old carpet and pad.  They moved the big furniture.  We did have a problem area in on the subfloor in our master bedroom that we discussed with Jonathan but apparently was not discussed with the insulation crew.  The installers both noticed the problem when they pulled up the carpet but since they were not told by Stephen to fix it, I guess they didn't think they had to.  I knew this area was a real problem for us so when they got to the master bedroom, I was watching to ensure it would be resolved.  It was an easy fix but one that required proper communication of the problem and time for the leveling compound to dry.  The installers did vacuum and removed all their debris.
Finally, I am happy to say that the carpet we choose is a beautiful color and seems to be a good quality carpet.  Our old carpeting was in terrible shape after 11 years but I feel this carpet will hold out much better.  Two doors are dragging on the carpet and I sent an email to Jonathan.  He said Floor Coverings international does not fix the doors but he did give me the names of two people that I can call for the repair.
We are pleased with the process but would recommend a short "sales-pitch" and better communication with the install crew.  Also, it would have been nice if Mr Wilk stopped by himself to see the final product.

"Excellent. A delight to work with Chad and his team. Very professional and thorough. The air in my house not only smelled better but even looked more transparent. Needed to have this done after mold remediation and I am very glad that I did. Chad was very helpful."

"Work was done well and professionally.  First visit was delayed due to another job, He called prior to schedule and reset at our convienence.  Work was very well done.  Only able to tell where the work was due to very minimal color difference in carpet piece, but seam is flat and not visible.  Very friendly during the work and explained what he was doing when I asked.

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.

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.

Spring and fall are the best seasons for installing carpet. Both seasons benefit from moderate temperatures and low humidity levels, which can help the carpet acclimate to the room and settle properly once installed. However, installing carpet during the winter months could result in lower costs, as demand for this service is low.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

If you have a dark carpet and are going for a lighter look, you should replace it, rather than dyeing, since you can only go darker with dye. If your stains are too heavy to mask with carpet dye or the carpet is more than 10 years old, you should also consider replacing it.
