"Due to all the rain we had last few weeks, we had the water coming into our basement and damaging our carpet. So for the second time we turn to District Floor Depot. They offer the excellent selection of products, stress-free installation and very good price. I would highly recommend District Floor Depot to anybody in a need of new floors."

"Our barely 4 year old carpet was quickly developing wrinkles and rolled sections so we looked at several companies on Homeadvisor and decided on Kashan. They were the best price and seemed ready to get this done quickly for us. Because our basement isn't very wide or large (although it's not small either) one guy used the knee kicker and went around the entire perimeter stretching section by section. I did supply them our in-house vacuum so they could clean as they went which was fine. I wouldn't have allowed that if it was going to be A LOT of cut carpet as I didn't want my cleaner clogged or canister overfilled. But it was fine. I actually cleared out the entire basement and put the single large sectional on carpet pads for easy sliding which they appreciated. But I had to do that when the carpet was installed too and it saves you a lot of cash doing some of any job yourself. Friendly, courteous and professional and I would definitely hire them again for other things like carpet cleaning or installs of non carpet flooring too."

"Rich was a true professional from the walk through and estimate to performing the carpet cleaning. He explained the process and is very reasonably priced. He cleaned the carpet of a 3 story townhome. The carpet had not been cleaned for many years. The carpet looks like new after the cleaning. It took approximately 4 hours to complete the job. I would highly recommend Rich for all your carpet needs. He also referred me to a contractor that was able to fix a roll in the carpet prior to cleaning."

Carpet 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.

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew

It's best to wait until the newly installed carpet has fully settled and dried before moving furniture back into the room. Your carpet installation professionals can provide guidance on the recommended wait time based on factors such as the type of carpet and adhesive used. Moving furniture back in too soon could damage the carpet or affect its adherence to the floor.

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.

If you have a dark carpet and are going for a lighter look, you should replace it, rather than dyeing, since you can only go darker with dye. If your stains are too heavy to mask with carpet dye or the carpet is more than 10 years old, you should also consider replacing it.
