"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."

Carpet Installation FAQs, answered by experts

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

Costs depend on carpet type, labor rates, and additional services like padding or transitions.

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.

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.
