"When we decided to install new laminate floors, we contacted Angi for recommendations. The first company that came was Makki’s Carpet & Flooring. The owner, Ali Makki was friendly, knowledgeable and listened to what we wanted and what was within our budget. We were so confident after meeting him, we didn't speak to any other flooring companies. The installers were professional, punctual, and attentive to detail, ensuring a smooth process with minimal disruption to our home We are very satisfied with the overall quality of the work and would highly recommend Makki’s Carpet and Flooring to others."

"All natural carpet cleaning is simply the best. They are professional, kind, helpful, and go above and beyond. They have expertise is getting out any stain you can imagine a toddler can get on expensive furniture and have saved the day many times. My kids love when they come too because the owner is so kind and lets them “help!” I cannot recommend them more! They also sanitize, which is great to get rid of the endless school germs."

"We had Tony come in to give us an estimate earlier this year. The floor has been down at least 25 years and it was dried out. Since this is our entrance we postponed having the floor done as we decided to redo our bathrooms. After that was finished, I called him up and settled on a date and he was very accommodating. He called the night before, came on time the next morning. He is very professional and pleasant. He buffed the floor and polyurethaned it. We had to stay off it for a day but we were going away for two days. It was a pleasant surprise when we returned home and saw our beautiful floor. It looks like new. We couldn't be happier. We would highly recommend him. We got his name off Angie's list which is wonderful. We will be doing our carpeting soon and will definitely use him. I would recommend him to my friends.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

DIY is possible for small areas. Professional installation ensures proper stretching and a polished finish.

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.
