"Sue made the process of buying carpet painless. She took time to help select the perfect carpet for the room. The installer, Tony, arrived on time and did a fantastic job both installing the carpet and restretching the carpet in the dining room. Professional from start to finish, will definitely hire again and won't even bother looking anywhere else."

"Just had my carpets cleaned by Classic Services, for the third time. All 3 times they have done a FABULOUS job. I would use no one else. they are prompt, courteous, efficient, and do an excellent job. I highly recommend them."
Hardware Store aisle after owner rearranged their aisles, before we stripped and refinished it
Here is the family room with the owner's favorite chair area before we cleaned the carpet
The client doesn't realize just how dirty her floor is, and becomes amazed at the outcome!
This is the client's den area where the floors were refinished. There is a long list of major errors. Here it starts with dreadful sanding resulting in drum marks & edger digs, incomplete sanding, completely botched staining, and a horrible 'finished' product!
Here you can see several etch marks, (drips, dribbles, spills and drink ring marks)

"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."

"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."

"Cynthia and her team did a deep clean of our new house before we moved in. Cynthia was responsive and flexible about scheduling based on our moving timeline. The team was very friendly, thorough, and efficient. When they finished, Cynthia walked through the house with us and made sure we were satisfied with all aspects of the service. The house looked great and we were very pleased. As an example, the sellers left the refrigerator a bit of a mess, but it looked like new when they were done. When we called we also inquired about carpet cleaning. Cynthia recommended a service that she works with and they were able to coordinate working together to make the process as quick and efficient as possible. Time is at a premium when moving and this was a nice time-saver. We will definitely work with them again and would consider hiring on a regular basis."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

The difference between a 40-oz. and 60-oz. carpet is the carpet face weight, meaning the 60-oz. carpet weighs 20 ounces more per square yard. When looking at two similar carpets of the same material and type, the 60-oz. carpet face weight likely indicates higher quality and more durability due to heavier carpet fibers. 

Spring and fall are the best seasons for installing carpet. Both seasons benefit from moderate temperatures and low humidity levels, which can help the carpet acclimate to the room and settle properly once installed. However, installing carpet during the winter months could result in lower costs, as demand for this service is low.

If you don’t put padding under your carpet, the carpet won’t be protected from wear on the underside. This could result in a shorter life span for your carpet and increased carpet repair costs over time. An unpadded carpet can also be less comfortable to walk on, depending on your subfloor and the type of carpet.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

Yes, there are plenty of ways to lay stair carpet without grippers, such as carpet adhesive, magnetic flooring, or staples. Adhesive may be your best bet if you don’t want grippers, as it will most likely stick the best and cause the least amount of damage. However, if you’re looking for an easy fix, grippers are one of the best solutions you can purchase.
