"recently had a great experience with Makki Carpet Company. They handled the removal of my old bedroom carpet quickly and professionally, making the whole process stress-free. The installation of the new carpet was done with excellent attention to detail, and the final result looks fantastic. What stood out the most was their reasonable pricing. It’s not always easy to find a company that balances quality work with fair costs, but Makki Carpet Company definitely delivered on both. The team was punctual, courteous, and clearly experienced in what they do. I would highly recommend Makki Carpet Company to anyone looking for reliable carpet removal and installation services at a fair price."

"Jorge Rios repaired a big hole we have in the wool carpet in our office. Since the carpet was installed in the late 90's, we did not have any extra carpeting or know where the carpet came from to get samples. Repairing a carpet without extra carpeting or samples can be quite challenging, but Jorge went above an beyond to find a piece of carpet very similar to the one we have. And he got it. He did an amazing job patching the area where the damage was and we couldn't be more please. We will use him again!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Experts advise that replacing carpeting can bring a 50% to 80% return on investment. However, new carpeting doesn’t necessarily add value to your overall home value. Because flooring value heavily depends on taste, it can be tricky to determine whether new carpet will increase your home sale price. Carpeting tends to be a renovation that increases overall comfort and aesthetics for your home, but it’s not a big factor in value.

Installing carpet padding is mostly a matter of measuring the room and cutting the carpet pad to size with a utility knife. You can save some money on carpet installation costs by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room’s perimeter and prepare the subfloor by cleaning and making any necessary repairs. Then, unroll the carpet pad and cut sections as needed. Staple the carpet pad to the subfloor along the edges, leaving the tack strips exposed.

In most cases, carpeting isn’t kind to the wood that it’s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.

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.

Yes, carpet tiles are easy to install—even if you don’t have much DIY experience. In fact, the simple installation process is one of the main reasons that people choose carpet tiles over traditional carpet. Since carpet tiles come in individual squares, they aren’t as heavy or awkward to install as regular carpet. Plus, you don’t need specialized equipment (like knee kickers or carpet stretchers) when installing carpet tiles.
