Q: How long does a subfloor last?

• <div><p>A subfloor's lifespan can range from 30 years to the entire life of the house, which is often between 50 and 100 years. The actual longevity depends on the material and its protection from damage. For example, while OSB may last longer than plywood, it is not the best choice for heavy flooring like ceramic tile. The most critical factor is moisture; a subfloor that avoids water damage, mold, and termites can last for decades. However, prolonged exposure to moisture will cause it to warp, rot, or grow mold, significantly shortening its life.</p></div>

Q: What is the best time of year to install carpet?

• <div><p>Spring and fall are the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-buy-carpet.htm">best seasons for installing carpet</a>. Both seasons benefit from moderate temperatures and low humidity levels, which can help the carpet acclimate to the room and settle properly once installed. However, installing carpet during the winter months could result in lower costs, as demand for this service is low. </p></div>

Q: Is stain-resistant carpet worth it?

• <div><p>Stain-resistant carpet might be worth it for your household if you have children or pets and expect spills to happen. While it may cost more than you expected upfront, you may save money in the long run if you have to replace your carpet less frequently (thanks to stains not absorbing down into the fibers). </p><p> </p></div>

Q: What is the best material for carpet?

• <div><p>It depends on what&rsquo;s important to you. For instance, if you&rsquo;re looking for the lowest-priced carpet material, consider polyester. Alternatively, you could go with olefin (also known as polypropylene), another synthetic carpet material that costs about the same as polyester. Otherwise, if durability is the priority, nylon or wool would be a better choice. </p><p>Not sure what you need? A <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/carpet-installation/">local carpet installer</a> can explain the difference between various carpet types and help you decide what&rsquo;s best for your home.</p></div>

Q: When should I repair versus replace my carpet?

• <div><p>When deciding whether to repair or replace your carpet, consider its age, the extent of the damage, and its location. It's often best to replace the entire carpet if the damage is extensive, such as large sections needing replacement, or if it's caused by water, which can lead to mold problems. Similarly, if your carpet is nearing a decade old, replacement is likely the more logical choice. On the other hand, consider repairing your carpet if the damage is localized to one spot, like minor rips or snags, the carpet is still relatively new, or the damage is in a low-traffic area of your home.</p></div>
