"I contacted Danny on Tuesday, November 12, 2019 about installing carpet that I would supply. He and an associate came out the same day to provide an estimate and determine if I had enough carpet to install in a 10x11 bedroom. I had several rolls of carpet/padding in my van that Danny and his associate carried into my home. The installation date was 2 days later. They arrived on time. Before the work began I asked whether my cables would be removed from the wall and Danny said he would do his best not to disturb the wiring. The old carpet /padding was removed and hauled away, new carpet/padding was installed/vacuumed, and the furniture was moved back into the room all in about one and one half hours. I appreciate that he texted me prior to each appointment to let me know he was on his way. The finished product looks amazing at a reasonable price (with my cable wiring intact). I highly recommend Danny and his company which provided 5 star customer service. I will contact him again on my next carpet replacement."

"LSJC Carpet Cleaning Services exceeded all expectations! When I first inquired about a clean, Luis, the business owner, was very attentive and responsive. I was thoroughly impressed with the results. Stains I worried were permanent are completely gone, and the team was very cautious with all of my furniture. You can tell they truly care about quality and customer satisfaction. I highly recommend LSJC to anyone looking for reliable, top-notch carpet cleaning. I'm going to try to keep my carpets clean, but if not, I know I can rely on LSJC and their services again!"

"They were team players, each one knew how to do all of the jobs. They were honest (I had hidden some money that I had forgotten about they found it and gave it to me) they are also well mannered and very polite. They did an excellent job installing carpet in 4 units. They had to move a lot of furniture in the units and nothing was broken. I would recommend them to anyone and would hire them again."

"After another contractor cancelled my appointment at a late hour, I decided to find an immediate replacement. I moved furniture, cleaned the carpets and waited 4 hours for the previous contractor to cancel last minute... Which turned out to be good for me! Gerald of Carpet Magic was not only immediately responsive, he was courteous, professional and got the job done. My carpets were beyond dirty... Now they look and smell great. I took before and after pictures, they are like night and day. Carpet Magic is the only professionals I will use to clean my carpets!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it’s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.

Yes. When installed properly, the strong adhesive on carpet tiles keeps them in place while also allowing homeowners the flexibility to peel up an individual tile and replace it if they need to. It’s important to keep in mind that the adhesive on your carpet tiles may take some time to cure, so it’s best to leave them alone for a couple of days after you first install them.

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.

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.

Installing carpet over carpet may negatively impact the resale value of your home. While it offers a quick fix, potential buyers may view it as a temporary solution rather than a long-term investment in quality flooring. Properly installed and maintained flooring adds value to a home, so removing the existing carpet and installing new flooring may be a better option to attract prospective buyers and maximize resale value.
