Q: Can you negotiate on carpet prices?

• <div><p>Yes, you can negotiate the purchase price of new carpet. You may also be able to negotiate installation costs or other fees in addition to the per-foot pricing of the carpet itself. You may have better luck negotiating with an independent retailer (as opposed to a big-box store), as they may have more discretion in pricing, but it&rsquo;s always worth asking. </p></div>

Q: When should I repair versus clean versus remove and replace my carpeting?

• <div><p>There are a few things to think about if you&rsquo;re deciding whether to repair or replace your carpeting. For starters, consider the extent of the damage and the age of your carpet. If there are minor rips and snags and your carpet is still relatively new, it might make more sense to just replace the affected section. Otherwise, if your carpet is nearing that decade mark or has widespread damage, it&rsquo;s more logical to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">replace your carpet</a> entirely.</p></div>

Q: Is 65-oz carpet good?

• <div><p>A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet&rsquo;s quality. </p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to install carpet or vinyl flooring?

• <div><p>No, it isn&rsquo;t less expensive to install carpet compared to vinyl floors. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">cost of installing carpet</a> can range between $3 and $11 per square foot, so it falls just over the cost of installing vinyl flooring, at an average of $3 to $7 per square foot. High-quality carpeting can also range much higher, even up to $20 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: How do carpet installers protect my furniture during the installation process?

• <div><p>Carpet installers use furniture sliders or blankets to protect your furniture during the installation process. They handle each piece with care to minimize the risk of damage. Additionally, they may employ techniques such as lifting and shifting furniture rather than dragging it across the floor to prevent scratches or other marks. If you have particularly delicate or heavy items that need to be moved, discuss special handling with the installers beforehand.</p></div>

The gentleman that came out was really excellent and very nice, but the price was extremely high for the hour they spent installing it. The person who took the intake call was also very nice and professional.

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.
