"Bill (owner) responded immediately to our request for a quotation through the Angie's List site. It was easy to schedule an appointment with him and a delight to meet with him. He understood what we were looking for and provided several options. The fact that he will be the one installing the blinds is very important to us."

"I scheduled two estimates the week before. Alex was the only one who showed up. We were surprised at how low his estimate was, and perhaps he did underestimate the time it would take to clear out the house, basement, attic and garage. The next week he arrived on schedule with two workers, one who began hauling junk out of the basement (a lot, by the way, that had been there when my parents moved in) and the other who began dustin cobwebs from the ceilings and sorting out small trash. he opted to haul stuff with his trailer, rather than using a dumpster, which resulted in a longer tie frame. He had to return the next day to finish. And that he did, and was true to his estimate.

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

The difference between a 40-oz. and 60-oz. carpet is the carpet face weight, meaning the 60-oz. carpet weighs 20 ounces more per square yard. When looking at two similar carpets of the same material and type, the 60-oz. carpet face weight likely indicates higher quality and more durability due to heavier carpet fibers. 

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.

Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:

  • Stains that are impossible to remove.

  • A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.

  • An increase in allergy symptoms.

  • The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.

When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.
