How long does it take to install carpet?

• <div><p>Smaller carpet installations may take less than a day, while full-home installations can take several days. However, your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-it-take-to-install-carpet.htm">carpet installation timeline</a> will ultimately depend on a few factors, including the number of rooms you’re renovating, the project’s total square footage, and the carpet type. Installation will take longer if your carpet company needs to repair your subfloor or remove old tile flooring. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to install carpet over tile?

• <div><p>On average, installing carpet costs between $3 and $11 per square foot, depending on factors like the carpet material, style, and labor rates in your area. Sometimes, installers will include carpet removal in these costs, so if you don&rsquo;t have any carpet to remove, you can save time and spend less money on labor.</p></div>

Q: Should you paint baseboards before installing carpet?

• <div><p>You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.</p></div>

Q: Do you put anything under carpet tiles?

• <div><p>In most cases, you don&rsquo;t need to put anything under carpet tiles&mdash;unlike regular carpet, which often has a layer of carpet padding beneath it. Carpet tiles attach directly to the floor (as long as it&rsquo;s a firm surface like plywood, concrete, or tile) with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or carpet glue.</p></div>

Q: Are stairs safer with or without carpet?

• <div><p>In some cases, stairs without carpet are actually slipperier than carpeted stairs, but if the carpet is brand new, dirty, or just slick, it may seem like your stairs are the most slippery ones in existence. Fortunately, traction treads can be added over most stair surface materials, increasing the traction you&rsquo;re able to get and reducing the risk of slipping. </p></div>

The 3 men showed up to perform the carpet cleaning. They worked fast and got out many stains that I thought would be there forever. They also used a carpet stretcher on some minor places to tighten up the carpet. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome and with the company.
