"Wonderful experience! Hugo is kind and professional. My carpet ( large area rug) had not been clean for 18 years. Hugo brought that carpet back to life! The colors are now vibrant and looks new. I would definitely recommend Hugo."

"Richard was very accommodating working me in to meet my move-in deadline. The technician called me with the 1.5 hour advance notice I requested within the window of time they provide. The technicians were very friendly and took the time to answer my questions regarding the cleaning method they offered. My carpets were not visibly soiled so I was surprised when the technician showed me how dirty the water was. The carpeted areas smell wonderful after the cleaning."

"Jay did a very good job and was reasonably priced. He removed all the wall to wall carpeting in our home and replaced it with oak flooring. He did 3 bedrooms, a living room, loft, hallway and a set of stairs. He was very puctual, professional and polite. The flooring was completed on the date promised. As with most big jobs, we had a couple issues. He came over and reviewed them with us and addressed them right away. We would use him again and highly recommend him. Thanks, Jay!"

"The salesman set the wrong expectations. He said they would move everything but our laser cutter and they would keep in constant communication. The day of the appointment, I called to make sure they were coming because I had no idea what time they were coming and they did not confirm that day or the previous to make sure we would still be able to have it done. They got here and said we were supposed to move everything out of the room before they got there. We said that's not what the sales guy said. They move the stuff with not too much fuss. They however didn't move much back, as once again, the sales guy said they would. There were some edges that weren't completely tight and had a loose string, but nothing that I thought was worth calling them back for. The sales guy said to make sure we kept a piece of the carpet and padding in case we need to ever claim the warranty. They left no extra pieces for us. They took everything back."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Acclimating laminate flooring cannot be rushed. Laminate flooring needs at least 48 hours to acclimate properly to its new environment, and being patient during this time can make installation go smoother because you will not be dealing with boards that have expanded or contracted during the shipping process. You will also be less likely to damage the boards during installation.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

If you’re using a carpet runner instead of a traditional carpet, pay attention to your width measurements. Instead of measuring the total width of your staircase with 2 added inches for foldover, simply measure the width you’d like the runner to cover. Runners generally come in standard sizes, so you may need to approximate what would look best in your space.

Some flooring companies recycle old carpet after replacing it. The broader flooring industry has been moving toward recycling more carpet material. However, whether an individual carpet gets recycled is up to the flooring company that removes it. When gathering quotes for new flooring in your area, ask each company about removal options and what they do with the material.

A stair runner can be cheaper than a carpet and will definitely save money over the cost of refinishing hardwood floors and stairs. The price depends, however, on the fabric and quality of the runner. A wool stair runner can be more expensive than an inexpensive polyester carpet and vice versa. Keep an eye on your budget, knowing that the higher quality the carpet and the carpet pad, the better the carpet will wear over time.
