"The owner called immediately, answered my questions satisfactorily about dry, organic carpet cleaning process, quoted me an excellent price for cleaning about 600 sq ft of bedroom carpet. He scheduled my job for the end of the week as requested. Tommy arrived on time (in fact a few minutes early) and worked nonstop until all three rooms had been cleaned. Although he had to move furniture around, he charged me his original quote (that did not include furniture moving). For that reason I increased the amt I paid him. He was courteous and professional. I will definitely use his service again."

"David did a fantastic job with our carpet. He was extremely professional and worked with us when we found ourselves slightly short on the carpet we ordered. We came to a quick resolution and everything turned out to exceed our expectations. He was extremely communicative throughout the process and his pricing was more than reasonable. Couldn’t recommend someone more! You won’t be dissatisfied!"

"From selecting carpet samples with Jerry to the install with the crew - everything went so smoothly. Jerry helped explain the difference in carpet options when I was deciding between two different ones, which was so helpful. The crew was polite, timely, and professional, and they did a fantastic job. The price was also the lowest we had been quoted by a few thousand. Could not be happier and would recommend to everyone!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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

Carpets in earthy, neutral shades should go with everything. Specifically, colors like beige, cream, and gray pair well with other neutrals and more vibrant colors. If you’re concerned about your carpet clashing with your walls or furniture, stay away from loud colors and complicated patterns, which could distract from the rest of your decor.

Yes. When installed properly, the strong adhesive on carpet tiles keeps them in place while also allowing homeowners the flexibility to peel up an individual tile and replace it if they need to. It’s important to keep in mind that the adhesive on your carpet tiles may take some time to cure, so it’s best to leave them alone for a couple of days after you first install them.

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.

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.
