Wholesale Flooring and Custom Installations, All Major Brands Represented. Measuring Service / Free Estimates. Carpet / Linoleum / Hardwood / Laminate Floors i.e. Pergo / Ceramic Tile / Vinyl Floors / Concrete Sealing / Moisture Control / Floor Leveling Certified and Insured. Able to Pass Drug Screen and Criminal Background Check

"Lack of communication and completion. John installed about 950 sq ft of luxury vinyl plan floors for us. He works shorter hours 3-6 hrs a day) so it took a quite a few days for him to install the floors. He was not able to salvage the older floor base quarter round, so he suggested vinyl cove. Then said - after ordering it - that it would be an additional install fee. We agreed on a price, and when floors were finished, we then agreed that maybe the original quarter round would be best to install given some of the “features” of existing walls making the vinyl cove difficult. He also needed to do something about my crawl space trap door. He began June 11 and left June 22. He said he could return some time after July 10 to complete the job. He was paid in full for all but the vinyl cove molding. Since then, I have procured the base molding and vinyl cove (just for kitchen and bath), but we have not heard from him. We are here only seasonally, and it has disrupted the summer to have furniture, etc out of the way for flooring and molding install for so long. I would give him a 5 for just the floors, but lack of completion and communication is the influencer of this rating."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

Many DIYers and pros start installing flooring in the middle of a room to ensure a balanced, symmetrical layout, especially when using tiles or planks. This process is particularly helpful in odd-shaped rooms because it allows you to create a centerline from which to work. Beginning in the center will enable you to work toward the edges so the final layout feels intentional and centered, even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.

Flooring installation usually takes about one to three days, so it’s a project you can do over a long weekend if you plan to DIY. Keep in mind that for some types of flooring, like hardwood or laminate, you’ll need to let the floor panels sit out of the packaging to acclimate them to their future home. This step will add at least a day to the project time, but it will help minimize the risk of warping due to changes in temperature and humidity.

Installing carpet over carpet may affect the warranty of the new carpet. Check with the manufacturer or retailer regarding their warranty policies. Many warranties stipulate specific installation guidelines, and installing carpet over carpet may not comply with these requirements. Voiding the warranty due to improper installation methods can leave you without help in case of issues or defects with the new carpet.

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.
