"HIghly recommend Daniel. He arrived on time. He gave us an estimate (time/dollars) and got to work right away. Daniel is not only excellent at his work, he is polite and considerate. The results are amazing--the carpets look new. We've been in our house ten years and this is the first professional carpet cleaning we' had done. In the past we used our in-home carpet cleaning machine. No comparison. From now on Daniel is our go-to carpet cleaning person. And when we need it, Daniel will be our go-to upholstery cleaning person too."

"Very well. Prompt, professional & courteous. Carpets looked great - kitchen tile and grout looked better than I could have hoped for 30+ years old tiles!! Would highly recommend and would use them again!"

"National Rug Cleaners truly exceeded my expectations when I needed my carpets and area rugs serviced in Cherry Hill,, NJ. In t very first interaction, they offered competitive pricing that stood out among other quotes I received, making it clear they value affordability without compromising on quality. Their team arrived promptly and demonstrated an impressive level of professionalism, working with efficiency and precision throughout the entire cleaning process. What really set them apart, though, was their unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality craftsmanship?every fiber, fringe, and deep-set stain treatment reflected their attention to detail and dedication to excellence. ?I was particularly struck by how attuned they were to my needs as a homeowner. They took the time to explain their cleaning methods, answer my questions about delicate fabrics, and ensure I felt confident in the care being provided. Their focus on customer satisfaction wasn?t just a promise, i was evident"

"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."

"Residential Rug Care came to our place in Alexandria, Virginia with their Free Pick Up and Delivery offer. Their price was unbeatable from the two other quotes I received. Brown and Davka arrived on time, their tall van was clean, they were very professional and carefully removed our wool carpets from living and dining room. Both were returned with the stains removed, without fringe or stitching damages and the extreme cleanliness showed noticeable improvements in look and feel to the touch. Our first time using them and will refer to our friends also."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Nylon carpet is widely considered one of the most durable and longest-lasting options, typically lasting 12 to 15 years. Its durability comes from its high resistance to wear, tear, stains, fading, and abrasions. It also resists liquid spills, insects, mold, and mildew, making it ideal for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways. For even greater longevity, frieze or Berber carpets are excellent choices that can last up to 20 to 25 years.

Beyond the material, a carpet's construction is key to its durability. Low-pile carpets with short, tight loops hold up better against wear than high-pile options. As a synthetic material, nylon is available in a vast range of colors and styles and often feels remarkably soft.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

Several types of flooring can be installed over existing tile, provided the current tiles are in good condition. Options include vinyl, vinyl plank, laminate, engineered wood, hardwood, carpet, and cork. Among these, various types of vinyl and engineered wood are the most common choices due to their versatility. Alternatively, you can install new tiles on top of your current ones if you like tile floors but want to update the look. Before proceeding with any new flooring, it's crucial to ensure your existing tiles are not damaged; otherwise, they will need to be removed first.

The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.

The average cost to install new flooring is around $3,162, with a typical price range between $1,530 and $4,860. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay an average of $3 to $22, including installation. Several factors influence the total price, including the flooring material, project size, geographic location, and any special features. Material choice is a significant cost driver; vinyl plank, linoleum, and carpet are on the lower end ($3 to $7 per square foot), while stone, tile, and hardwood are more expensive, with hardwood reaching up to $22 per square foot. Prices can also vary by region, and installing flooring on stairs will add to the cost, typically ranging from $11 to $160 per step.
