"The cleaning results we got using the PowerPro team really blew my mind, WAY exceeded my expectations. Not only did they manage to restore my carpets and area rug to their former glory, but the difference in the air quality in our home is night and day. When Rich showed us what came out of the air ducts...what we were INHALING on a daily basis, we were APPALLED. The air in the house actually SMELLS clean, no more musty, dank dust and pollutants living in the air ducts, what a difference when walking into our own home. Next month we're having them back to clean the stained grout in the kitchen and bathroom tiles. Dealing with Rich and the team was an absolute pleasure, super courteous and accommodating. Will never use anyone else! Now if they only did WINDOWS....?"

"Premier Carpet is a great source for flooring. I purchased a high quality hardwood floor product from Premier Carpet at a terrific price and I couldn’t be happier with the result. I’ll be installing upstairs flooring in the near future and I know that I will go with Premier Carpet for great service and pricing."

"We were extremely happy with the overall experience with Empire. The sale rep was very easy to work with and very informative. The installers were neat, professional and knowledgeable on completing the project on time and without any complications. The flooring looks beautiful and we are very satisfied and will call them again when we need carpeting in the house."

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Depending on carpet type and labor, costs range from $3 to $12 per square foot.

In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it’s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.

Carpet installers use furniture sliders or blankets to protect your furniture during the installation process. They handle each piece with care to minimize the risk of damage. Additionally, they may employ techniques such as lifting and shifting furniture rather than dragging it across the floor to prevent scratches or other marks. If you have particularly delicate or heavy items that need to be moved, discuss special handling with the installers beforehand.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is five to 15 years. For the best results, you should always use the right type of carpet glue for the area you're using it in. There are carpet glues for high-traffic areas, which are more high-quality and durable than others.
