"I cannot say enough good  things about this company or the team that we worked with to completely re-carpet our entire home.  We have a large one level house on the water and the carpet was horrible by the time we finally got around to getting new flooring.  Sarah came out to the house with a ton of samples and walked through the benefits of each.  Knowing the type of wear and tear that the floors take, and that we were not ready to invest in hardwoods, we decided on carpeting throughout.  She was able to schedule the crew at a time that worked well for us and they were absolutely fantastic!  The crew was always on time, bright and early, and tore out the old flooring and installed the new faster than I thought possible - all with lots of smiles on their faces.  Honestly loved the experience, love the end result - and I don't think I've EVER said that about another contractor!

"Called FloorTech of SC after carpet installer I initially hired, backed out. Initial installer (names withheld) came to look at the job with 3 helpers and told me he couldn't do the job, because it was going to take more that 1 day. This left me desperate! I found FloorTech of SC on Angie's List, called them and the owner showed up within 2 hours to look at the job. I needed the job done quickly, so FloorTech of SC came out on a Sunday (owner and 1 helper) and finished the job in about 3.5 hours. Very reasonable price, too! I will hire them for all my flooring needs! Thank you John for bailing me out and getting the job done!"

"Can't say enough great things about our cleaning experience. He was very responsive in setting up the appointment, arrived ontime, was courteous in moving around the furniture, was reasonably priced and did a very thorough job cleaning every corner. We were very close to disposing a white/beige rug that we mistakenly placed in a heavily trafficed area and that our old dog had a few accidents on but after the cleaning, it looks brand new and all pet odors were removed! The rugs also dried in less than 2 hours and there were no heavy cleaning fumes. Thank you again and would definitely recommend!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.
