"This is the second time I have had Kieth to clean my carpets, as before, he was prompt and very professional and very effective! Had some horrid stains for him to contend with. He is also, I think, very reasonably priced. I have recommended him to several people already and will definitely use him again."

"Black Bear Maintenance built my deck with composite decking, a composite railing, and pressure-treated posts and balusters. It all blends together nicely. Kyle and his helper Kevin worked well together. They took the job seriously and worked steady, taking pride in their work. I also had them renovate an old porch. They framed up two new walls and installed three large sliding windows and beautiful French doors opening onto the deck. Kyle not only takes his work seriously, he also enjoys it. He has a likable personality and gladly answered my questions with detailed explanations. And if something isn't just right, he is absolutely willing to correct it. Overall, I am pleased with the project."

"I was in need of a last minute cleaning before when we came home from vacation. Alicia answered my text right away and scheduled a cleaning for the next day, before we got home. Upon getting home our house was bright, tidy and cleaner than I've ever seen it before, and her price was very fair. Will reach out to Alicia again for her exceptional service!"

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.

A stair runner can be cheaper than a carpet and will definitely save money over the cost of refinishing hardwood floors and stairs. The price depends, however, on the fabric and quality of the runner. A wool stair runner can be more expensive than an inexpensive polyester carpet and vice versa. Keep an eye on your budget, knowing that the higher quality the carpet and the carpet pad, the better the carpet will wear over time.

The complexity of installation depends on the type of flooring you choose and the level of expertise required to install it. While some materials, like vinyl or laminate, offer relatively straightforward installation processes suitable for DIY enthusiasts, others, such as natural stone or hardwood, often require professional assistance from a flooring company to ensure proper fitting and longevity.
