"We recently had wood flooring installed by Marvel Makers, and the experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish. The team was professional, punctual, and paid close attention to detail throughout the entire process. The craftsmanship is outstanding — the floors are beautifully installed, seamless, and completely transformed the look and feel of our home. What stood out most was their communication and care. They took the time to answer questions, kept the workspace clean, and made sure everything was completed to a high standard. It’s clear they take pride in their work, and it shows in the final result. If you’re looking for quality flooring installation with excellent customer service, I highly recommend Marvel Makers. We’re extremely happy with our new floors and would absolutely use them again for future projects."

"Hired Carolina Concrete to install a concrete driveway. They did such a fantastic job we also hired them to install a flood wall as well - they do great work! Even with dodging the weather and balancing other jobs, the work was done in a timely fashion. Recommended Carolina Concrete to 2 other driveways - and they look great too!!!"

"Great experience with this company. Michael was able to come out to my house for an estimate within a day of making contact with him. He was then able to get the quote to me within a day or two and start the project the very next week. The project (power washing and staining/painting 2 separate floors worth of deck) was completed in a timely fashion. His crew was professional and friendly. We overall had a great experience and would hire this company again."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

To clean a subfloor after removing carpet, start by removing any leftover debris, such as stuck-on underlay, nails, or staples. Next, thoroughly vacuum the subfloor to eliminate dust, dirt, and loose particles. If adhesive residue remains, you can use an adhesive remover, a scraper, or a sander to gently lift it off. Finally, clean the surface by mopping or wiping it down with a damp rag and allow it to dry completely. This preparation is essential for ensuring new flooring adheres properly and to prevent bumps or wrinkles from forming.

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew

Carpet density refers to how closely together the fibers of a carpet are stitched into the carpet backing, with values ranging from 1,000 to 7,000. A carpet density value of 3,000 or higher is considered best for most homes, especially in high-traffic areas, such as a living room or dining room. If you’re comparing two carpets made of the same material, a higher carpet density can indicate better durability and longevity. However, carpet density is only one of many factors that can help you determine a carpet’s quality.
