"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....?"

"As stated above we have two pets and two kids First off Classic Services came out at the time they specified. They cleaned the carpet and the couches. Its like we have new furniture and a new carpet. They do phenomenal work. The vase of roses is a nice touch as a thank you."
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."

"Pros: The gentleman were punctual and professional. The price is good at $195 for a 950 sq ft apartment. Cons: The carpets don't look that clean. There are still some food stains that were not removed. They attacked these spots with stiff brushes and it looks like the carpet is damaged there. Summary: Not bad at this price point, but next time I will opt for steam cleaning. This chemical process doesn't seem very effective."

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Taking carpet off stairs is an easy but multi-step process you can usually do yourself. If you have the right tools, time, and oomph to finish the job, removing carpet from stairs can be an easy-to-medium difficulty task, depending on your stairs, the type of carpet installed, and how willing you are to get your hands dirty. It’s important to review the process, gather the right tools before you begin, and follow a tutorial or directions while you work.

Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on space size and complexity.

Carpet padding costs an average of $510 to purchase and install in a 225-square-foot room. The price can range from as low as $170 to as much as $850, depending on the brand, the thickness, and the labor cost. Although carpet padding will increase the overall cost of carpet installation, it also helps the carpet hold up longer, reduces noise in the room, and provides more insulation.

Carpet is an effective natural insulator, so it will make a room slightly warmer than laminate. The material’s insulating properties also make carpeted rooms more efficient for temperature regulation.

In most cases, carpeting isn’t kind to the wood that it’s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.
