"After checking for flooring experts in my area with a good reputation, we contacted Hobbs Flooring in Richlands NC. Ricky Hobbs the owner came to our home the next day. After talking with us to determine our needs, he measured our our rooms then gave us some options on different types of material. The next day we went to his shop and picked out the floor and they gave us prices that were fair and reasonable. We schelduled an installation date and each and every morning the guys were on time and working. Extremely hard working and professional people, they did a fantastic job. We highly recommend Hobbs Flooring for your flooring needs. That is if you want it done by professional flooring people."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Carpet padding costs an average of $510 to purchase and install in a 225-square-foot room. The price can range from as low as $170 to as much as $850, depending on the brand, the thickness, and the labor cost. Although carpet padding will increase the overall cost of carpet installation, it also helps the carpet hold up longer, reduces noise in the room, and provides more insulation.

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.

Taking carpet off stairs is an easy but multi-step process you can usually do yourself. If you have the right tools, time, and oomph to finish the job, removing carpet from stairs can be an easy-to-medium difficulty task, depending on your stairs, the type of carpet installed, and how willing you are to get your hands dirty. It’s important to review the process, gather the right tools before you begin, and follow a tutorial or directions while you work.

If the installer is unwilling to fix the problems and you’re not interested in seeking remediation, you could hide a visually unpleasant floor. This will only work if the floor is structurally sound and the only issue you have is the way it looks. The easiest way to do this is to use large area rugs. You can also paint the floor, although that’s a labor-intensive job if you want to go the DIY route.

Depending on carpet type and labor, costs range from $3 to $12 per square foot.
