Hi! My name is Bailey, and I am a full-time graduate school college student looking for other opportunities to pay for my education. While no 'proper' housekeeping experience, I enjoy making homes, including my own, a clean and relaxing environment. Cleaning can take up a majority of one's day, especially on the weekends; however, I'd be more than happy to take that load off your shoulders! From laundry, vacuuming up dog hair in unsuspecting places, or dusting off blinds, whatever it is, just let me know and I'll be there! I'm also happy to learn, so if there's anything that you want done a certain way, please communicate it to me!

Hi! My name is Diana. Cleaning ( and skincare/ make up 🙂 ) has always been a passion of mine. I used to be a restaurant manager prior to this for 7 years and my favorite part of the week was having my set day off for a cleaning day to deep clean my house. Nothing feels better than walking into a fresh clean home and would love to see others experience the same feeling, along with the fact you now have one less thing to worry about!

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.

In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it’s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.

Berber is a loop pile carpet known for its strength, durability, and distinct looped look. It can be made from a number of different carpet materials, including nylon and wool. However, Berber isn’t as soft as cut pile carpet, so it isn’t the best carpet for a bedroom (although it’s a good style of carpet for living rooms).

With that said, if you really like the look of Berber, you can still install it in your bedroom—it just might not be as comfortable on your feet as cut pile carpeting.

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.

Carpet tiles come with a preexisting adhesive backing, which means installing them is as simple as peeling off the paper and sticking them down where they need to go. In other words, no. You won’t need to purchase any separate glue to get your carpet squares situated. It’s already built into the carpet tile itself.
