"We met with Sue tonight for a free estimate to improve our lower level office area and sitting area. We had carpeting previously and are now going with vinyl plank flooring as we plan to do some dog sitting in the future. We are a nonprofit organization and value, durability and aesthetics are important to us. We were impressed with the product selection but even more so by Sue's knowledge, pleasant professionalism and superb customer service skills. The estimate was very fair and we left a deposit tonight. I have no doubt that Sue's installers will be just as good doing the job as she did with us tonight to explain and go over everything. We have gotten estimates in the past for flooring and Sue's was by far the best and there was never a moment where there was any sales pressure. While Sue was here we were so happy with her services that we even had her measure and provide estimates for carpeting in three rooms that we were planning to renovate sometime down the road. We have already recommended Sue's company to a friend and will continue to do so. I am excited to see what the job will look like upon completion and will write another review soon."

"I recently used national rug cleaner's for carpet cleaning, and I couldnâ t be more satisfied with their service. From start to finish, their team was professional, friendly, and thorough. They arrived on time, assessed the condition of my carpets, and explained the process clearly. The results were outstandingâ stubborn stains that I thought would never come out disappeared completely, and my carpets now look and feel brand new. I also appreciated their use of eco-friendly products, which left my home smelling fresh without harsh chemical odors. I highly recommend national rug cleanersto anyone looking for reliable, top-quality carpet cleaning services.â"

"Either sales rep or installers should have identified the right padding or carpet height to replace existing materials. Instead I had to go through the house and paint almost every baseboard for the 1/2inch of void where past carpet hid old paint color."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

The first step in budgeting for carpet is to determine the amount of carpet you need and the type of carpet you want. You might be tempted to opt for the least expensive option if you have a limited budget, but a low-quality carpet won’t last as long as a high-quality one. When accounting for future carpet repair costs, it makes sense to buy the best-quality carpet you can afford.

If the stairs are already covered in carpet, you will need to remove the old carpet and possibly the carpet pad. Any damage to the stairs like cracks, loose boards, or creaky treads may also need to be repaired. You may also want to sand and refinish or paint wood stairs before installing a carpet runner.

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.
