"I?m very happy with the work Stan from Maryland Carpet Cleaning Services did for me! Our carpets were long overdue for a deep cleaning. After he cleaned five rooms, a staircase and an extra long hallway, the carpets look like new!!! Next year (or sooner) I will definitely ask him to come again!"

"Over the years I have used many carpet cleaning companies. DiamondShine stands head and shoulders above them all and now I will never use anyone else! Other companies gave me a quote but said it was just an estimate and they would not be able to give me a definitive price until they arrived the day of the cleaning. DiamondShine stood behind their price and I knew exactly what I was getting. Although they were not the lowest, they were very reasonable and I could rest assured that I would not be scammed like I have been with other companies. The tech confirmed he would be there the day before, called 15 minutes beforehand and arrived precisely on time. It was obvious he was a professional by the way he walked through the home to get a scope of the work and then set right to work, finishing much before I thought he would. He also wore a mask. The work quality was superior. I had thought that I would have to replace the carpets but after DiamondShine they look amazing. I really can't believe it! When I hired a carpet cleaner a couple of years ago I also went through home advisor and had an absolutely terrible experience - but decided to give them one more try. It is companies like DiamondShine that make this site of value to customers. Do yourself a favor - don't use anyone else!!!"

"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, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction and friction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls. Additionally, if a fall does occur, carpet offers more cushioning, which can lessen the severity of an injury. While hard surfaces can look great, they are often more slippery. However, it's worth noting that some carpets, especially if they are new, dirty, or have a slick texture, can also pose a slipping hazard. To improve safety on any type of stair surface, you can add traction treads to increase grip.

On average, installing carpet costs between $3 and $11 per square foot, depending on factors like the carpet material, style, and labor rates in your area. Sometimes, installers will include carpet removal in these costs, so if you don’t have any carpet to remove, you can save time and spend less money on labor.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.

DIY installation is challenging; professionals ensure proper fitting, adhesive application, and long-term durability.

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.
