"Great initial meeting with large selection of materials and clear explanation of the process. Detailed quote with breakdown of the costs arrived quickly. After ordering the vinyl flooring, I think the office could have been a little more proactive about notifying me when the vinyl came in and when it would be installed. I only had a day's notice of when they were coming. Installation was great, very professional and neat. They moved the furniture and put everything back when they were done. I would definitely use this company again."

"I was disappointed. It seemed like a switched deal. You advertised $49.99 as the price for air ducts and everything and when he came out here, he quoted me the price of over $200. He said that it was just vents and he wanted to do everything so I was just disappointed with him. I bargained with him and said that I did not want all the returns so I ended up paying $150 on top of the $50 that I had already paid. If I wanted both the returns it was going to be $100 above that.He knew that it was an Angie's List big deal purchase and he still charged me more than what the big deal was for. I know that he did pull dust out of the air duct and they were cleaned. He arrived on time, he was a young kid, obviously he wasn't the owner of the business or anything like that.I think that if that fee that is advertised on the Angie's List website isn't the correct fee, that needs to be disclosed upfront. The price wasn't unreasonable. It was regular if I had just called somebody out of the blue, but when you gave me that big deal price, I assumed that was it. I would not use this provider again in the future."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

No, it isn’t less expensive to install carpet compared to vinyl floors. The cost of installing carpet can range between $3 and $11 per square foot, so it falls just over the cost of installing vinyl flooring, at an average of $3 to $7 per square foot. High-quality carpeting can also range much higher, even up to $20 per square foot.

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.

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.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

Depending on carpet type and labor, costs range from $3 to $12 per square foot.
