"Dexter and his work partner did an amazing job in cleaning the carpets in the house where I was moving out from. When I initially moved in here, another company had cleaned the carpets and it really didnâ t look like it had been cleaned at all. The difference with All Natural Carpet Cleaning is amazing; these very old carpets look brand new! Donâ t look elsewhere, hire Dexter and his team and you wonâ t be disappointed! He was communicative, friendly and even threw in some extras for me!"

"When called set up time right away to come look at our carpet. Came the following week flexible to my schedule and stretched the carpet in 4 of my rooms and the hallway. Looks almost like new."

"It was fine. Worked very well. They got stains out of the carpet that I didn't think would come out. Good job. They did it expeditiously. Everything went as solid, I was very pleased. One thing they didn't tell me that I could choose stain removal, or deodorizer treatment. My family room needed the deodorizer treatment, and it smelled like a wet dog, but now I can't detect the smell. They were good.Good price."

"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."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.

Carpet installation typically starts with removing the old flooring, preparing the subfloor, laying underpadding for cushioning, and securing the new carpet with tack strips, making precise cuts to fit room dimensions.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet’s quality. 

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew
