"This is my 2nd time using Danny's Floors. The first time they did an excellent job with my luxerary laminate floors on my main level. This time they recarpeted my entire upstairs. The job was done to perfection. They were here early, installed, cleaned up after, and done quickly. The installers were respectful to me and of my items. The quality of the carpet is top notch, and the price did not break the bank. I would use them again, and again."

"I requested flooring services through Angi and KoAm/JMF, LLC responded within minutes. I was able to schedule an appointment with their estimator for the next day and they were able to install my luxury vinyl plank flooring the following day. Their price was reasonable, their installer was very professional, and he did a great job. I would definitely use them again."

"First let me take a moment to thank Hews Carpet Care, and the owner for taking such great care with our carpet and stairs and leaving our floors and stairs looking like they were new once again! We needed to have all of the carpet upstairs in the bedrooms & hall way stretched as well as all of the carpet on stairs stretched and retacked and we had 3 flights. Not only did he do an exceptional job but Hugh the owner was professional, and and truly an expert in his craft! He also had a wonderful personality and his only goal was to make sure you were happy above and beyond. He also provides a warranty, so working with a craftsman with over 40 yrs of experience in his trade, he went above & beyond what we expected and we couldn't help but provide him with a nice tip to show our gratitude!. So thanks again Hugh for all of your help! We'll end saying anyone who needs carpet care, visit his website & don't hesitate to call Hews Carpet Care. Sincerely, Jay & Mel"

"Justin came to my house and cleaned my tile floors and grout. He made a dirty white tile floor with dark grout look like new. The floor sparkled and the dirty grout was no longer dark, it was back to its original linen color. Justin knows a lot about floors. He told me what product to get for my wood floors and how to use the product. His advice was followed and now the floors are clean and shine. Justin I just referred you to my neighbor who came by to see your work. You are on my list for top pros."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

If you want your carpet to last as long as possible, then yes, you need to install carpet padding. Carpet padding creates a layer of protection between the back of your carpet and the floor beneath it, which decreases friction and reduces wear and tear. Aside from that, carpet padding also helps absorb noise and makes your carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.

DIY is possible for small areas. Professional installation ensures proper stretching and a polished finish.

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

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.

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.
