Q: Should I be worried if my floor creaks?

• <div><p>Squeaking floors don&rsquo;t usually pose an immediate safety risk. It can be the result of normal settlement, changes in humidity, or natural wear. Uneven or warped floors do pose a trip risk, so you should call a pro for a repair. This is especially true if you notice visible signs of rot or deterioration. Rarely, a creaking floor can signal structural issues, but there are usually other signs.</p></div>

Q: Do you start carpeting stairs at the top or bottom?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.</p></div>

Q: What is the best color carpet for high-traffic areas?

• <div><p>There are a couple of color options to consider when installing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-choose-carpet-high-traffic-areas.htm">carpet in high-traffic areas</a> (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it&rsquo;s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.</p></div>

Q: Can furniture sliders be used on carpet?

• <div><p>Yes, in most cases, you can use furniture sliders on carpeting. However, it&rsquo;s best to seek out furniture sliders that are specifically meant for carpeting, or a larger size of slider that the furniture won&rsquo;t slip off of as easily. Many varieties of furniture sliders are versatile enough to use on carpeting, hardwood, or tile floors. </p></div>
