Small jobs welcome

"I can’t say enough good things about Miranda and Marla! These ladies did a phenomenal job deep cleaning my home. When I say they didn’t leave anything untouched, I mean NOTHING! 😂 They were very professional, thorough, and paid close attention to every little detail. You can definitely tell they take pride in their work. When I woke up this morning, it honestly felt like I was waking up in a new house again. Everything looked, smelled, and felt so fresh and clean. That feeling alone was worth it! I’ve already recommended Miranda and Marla to several of my friends and coworkers, and I will continue to recommend them. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, professional, and actually takes the time to do the job right, these are your ladies! 10/10 BOOK THEM! You will not be disappointed. I will definitely be adding them to the rotation. Thanks ladies, see you soon❣️"

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

If you want your carpet to last as long as possible, then yes, you need to install carpet padding. Carpet padding creates a layer of protection between the back of your carpet and the floor beneath it, which decreases friction and reduces wear and tear. Aside from that, carpet padding also helps absorb noise and makes your carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.

You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.

Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on space size and complexity.

Carpet is most often affixed to the floor by tacks in tack strips rather than nailed or glued directly to the subfloor. The tack strips are nailed to wood subfloors. Even if you want to install carpet over concrete, you’ll adhere the tack strips to the concrete with masonry nails or a liquid adhesive.
