"After receiving a totally outrageous quote from Stanley Steemer (which was double the amount they charged me last year), I decided to give New York Carpet Cleaning a try, and I'm so glad I did! My experience was excellent. I live in a second floor walk-up and have wall-to-wall light beige carpeting. From the very first contact, NY Carpet Cleaning was extremely responsive and professional. The pre-appointment confirmations, e-mail and text updates put me at ease. The cleaning professionals were extremely punctual, polite and friendly. They took the time to explain each step of the process to me as it was happening. They explained in detail how the machinery worked and even helped me to move my storage chest and coffee table. They paid great attention to every detail and were extremely thorough. They did not rush the job at all. It was obvious that they took great pride in their jobs. My carpet looks great!! I absolutely got my money's worth. NY Carpet Cleaning has just gained a customer for life. It's pretty nice when a company exceeds my expectations. I don't experience that a lot."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

Yes, installing laminate over carpet could negatively affect the resale value of your home. It’s no surprise that homebuyers prefer flooring that someone has installed according to industry standards. Laminate over carpet may raise concerns about the quality and stability of the flooring, impacting the overall perceived value of the property.

If you have a dark carpet and are going for a lighter look, you should replace it, rather than dyeing, since you can only go darker with dye. If your stains are too heavy to mask with carpet dye or the carpet is more than 10 years old, you should also consider replacing it.

The complexity of installation depends on the type of flooring you choose and the level of expertise required to install it. While some materials, like vinyl or laminate, offer relatively straightforward installation processes suitable for DIY enthusiasts, others, such as natural stone or hardwood, often require professional assistance from a flooring company to ensure proper fitting and longevity.
