"We needed to repair our bathroom floors and we where very happy that we went with 360 Exact Marki was a pleasure to work with he answered my questions and didn’t give me the run around like most companies will and he shows when he said that he would. Jeremy who worked on our bathroom was very professional and polite and he asked me a question about the way that i wanted to have the floor tiles and I was very impressed with the fact that he took the time to ask me about the way that I wanted them to look, and the time that he spent on it and the quality of the work he did was amazing.I will definitely hire them again and look forward to working with them again in future. Thank you so very much for the amazing job!! Casey Dalcin"

I am someone who is trying to start a business. I’ve been in and around the construction industry for 20+ years, mainly doing commercial residential construction. I want to build something of my own where I feel my work can be noticed. I travel anywhere within the greater Rochester region. I look forward to meeting with you. Thank you

"It was great!!! Jon was a great person to work with. Extremely professional, friendly and considerate. Everything was explained and calculated, nothing omitted or forgotten. Took about 2 weeks from quote/house call to install date. Thank you so much to Jon, Tom and Bobby for coming out on a Saturday and spending the whole day getting the floor done. Really appreciate your professionalism and your effort to ge the job done right. I can't wait for the carpets to get here! If my ideas pan out, I will definitely be calling back. Thanks again!"

"Service performed for a family member.
Paid $50 (no change): $40 for love seat; $8 for taxes on cost of Angie's List carpet cleaning deal ($100/ 3 rooms).
Didn't know I had to pay taxes; never paid on other services.
Please confirm Angie's list policy of taxes.
Went to loo at work after paying; should have waited to pay but person was already outside ready to go.
Carpet was OK but the love seat never had been vacuumed underneath cushions (dirty) and never cleaned underneath.
Love seat had cushions all back in place while wet from cleaning.
I had to remove all the cushions and lean them up on floor to dry.
Very disappointed in service.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

DIY is possible for small areas. Professional installation ensures proper stretching and a polished finish.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

Yes, professional installation services often include the removal and disposal of old flooring, which can include materials like carpet. This process may also involve preparing the subfloor for the new installation. It is recommended to confirm the full scope of the service with your provider.

Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.
