Is Berber carpet a good choice for bedrooms?

• <div><p>Berber is a loop pile carpet known for its strength, durability, and distinct looped look. It can be made from a number of different carpet materials, including nylon and wool. However, Berber isn’t as soft as cut pile carpet, so it isn’t the best carpet for a bedroom (although it’s a good style of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-choose-carpet-living-room.htm">carpet for living rooms</a>).</p><p>With that said, if you really like the look of Berber, you can still install it in your bedroom—it just might not be as comfortable on your feet as cut pile carpeting.</p></div>

Q: Can you negotiate on carpet prices?

• <div><p>Yes, you can negotiate the purchase price of new carpet. You may also be able to negotiate installation costs or other fees in addition to the per-foot pricing of the carpet itself. You may have better luck negotiating with an independent retailer (as opposed to a big-box store), as they may have more discretion in pricing, but it&rsquo;s always worth asking. </p></div>

Q: Is 65-oz carpet good?

• <div><p>A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet&rsquo;s quality. </p></div>

Q: Should I remove existing baseboards before installing new carpet?

• <div><p>Even if you&rsquo;re just replacing your carpet and not your baseboards, experts recommend removing existing baseboards before installing new carpet. This allows for a clean and seamless installation without the risk of damaging the baseboards or the carpet. Additionally, removing the baseboards gives you the opportunity to stain or repaint them as well as inspect and repair any underlying issues with the walls or flooring.</p></div>

Q: Can you make a crawl space liveable?

• <div><p>Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable. </p></div>

I had 10 year old carpets that had never been cleaned ? , plus they were buckling. Bob came in and he must have used a magic wand, because they look BRAND NEW! On top of that, he has a great attitude, and worked quickly and quietly.
