"Avoid this dealer if you can find what you want else-where. We found them "pretending" to be professional but in reality they are so fly-by-night "make do" amateurs. They promise you quick service and take forever to get the job done. Once they have you on contract, you just have to bird dog them until completion. After several weelks of waiting for our interlocking strip flooring to be installed, a team showed up and after removing the old floor, immediately put down a thick layer of glue !! They began putting down cheap, thin floor strips. We stopped them and forced them to verify what they had brought was wrong. Then they had to spread dry-zit and scrape up the glue. Our whole house was a dust storm and we had to live with the bare dusted slab surface a few more weeks until the correct floor material came in. AVOID THIS COMPANY LIKE YOU WOULD AVOID POISON IVY. They are the worst."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can install carpet without padding. While skipping the padding can help you save on the project, it will make the carpet less comfortable and show uneven spots or imperfections in the subfloor. Because carpet padding protects the back of the carpet from wear, a carpet without padding can wear out faster than one with it. Carpet padding also cuts down on noise, so forgoing it can affect the acoustics in the room.

Yes, installing or replacing carpet yourself is a challenging DIY project. It involves multiple steps, including the removal of old flooring, underlayment and tack strip installation, careful measuring, and stretching the carpet to prevent it from wrinkling or puckering. Expect to spend at least four days installing carpet if you decide to do it yourself.

While it’s possible to install carpet yourself, it’s best to hire a local carpet installer to ensure it’s done correctly and safely. Before installing carpet yourself, check whether the manufacturer’s warranty will remain intact. Many manufacturer’s warranties won’t cover the cost of materials under the warranty if it wasn’t installed by a pro. In addition, you should only install carpet yourself if you’re familiar with the tools required and if the installation is straightforward, not involving things such as floor vents or stairs. 

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.

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.
