"I called a week prior to schedule the appointment and they were very responsive. We set the appointment for the following week at 10 am. On cleaning day, they arrived at 9:25, which was fine because I was home. Although the two men were professional, I would not describe them as friendly. The first thing he asked me was how much he had quoted me. He later honored the original price that I showed him from my text message. Once they got started, I noticed that they did things differently than the previous company that I had used. They didn't pre-vacuum and their equipment seemed older. They also didn't take my sectional apart or move it to clean the fabric in between. He showed me some of the stains that they couldn't get out but I later noticed that they never even cleaned the back part of the sectional at all nor did they clean all sides of the cushions -- I cleaned them myself. Because they didn't take the sectional apart and move it, they didn't clean the carpet in those areas either. The rest of the carpet appeared clean and they removed one small stain that I was concerned about but the carpet was completely soaked. Also, they didn't rake the carpet so that it looked new. I would not use them again and I would not recommend them to any of my friends."

"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."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

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.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

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.

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