Q: Should you paint baseboards before installing carpet?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can I install flooring myself?

• <div><p>While you certainly can install new flooring yourself, it may not always be the best idea. Since the condition of the floors is a significant component of your property&rsquo;s value, it&rsquo;s important that your project looks professionally done. If not, you run the risk of needing to have them replaced again before selling your home. If you&rsquo;re looking to save money on the cost of floor installation, consider removing the old flooring yourself to save on labor costs.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a transition between carpet stairs and wood flooring?

• <div><p>A transition piece between carpet stairs and wood flooring isn't always necessary. A transition piece separates two types of flooring in between rooms and areas, like carpet and vinyl. Because the carpet on the stairs tucks into the seam, you can&rsquo;t see the fringes, and there is no need to hide anything. However, you can use a stair cap if your stairs have a nose.</p></div>

Q: How do you install carpet without a stretcher?

• <div><p>The knee kicker tool that attaches carpet to tack strips offers some stretching capabilities, so you can use this and your own arm strength to stretch out thinner carpets across a room. But you should buy or rent a stretcher for the best possible carpet application. If you don&rsquo;t want to buy or rent a stretcher, it may be worth it to skip the DIY and leave this job to the pros or risk shortening the life of your new carpet by installing it without a stretcher.</p></div>

Q: How much does carpet padding cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-is-carpet-padding.htm">Carpet padding costs</a> an average of <b>$510</b> 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.</p></div>
