He charged me a fair rate and provided quality workmanship. He arrived on time and cleaned up when the job was completed. Am at is a man of his word and a true skilled tradesman. I can't say enough. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing carpet installation."

"We were very happy with our experience with Royal Carpet. John scoped out the job (ripping up carpet and installing luxury vinyl flooring in our den), gave a very reasonable estimate, and stuck to it. John and Mike did a fantastic job installing the flooring and moldings. They were very professional, efficient, and careful when moving our heavy furniture around. We would highly recommend Royal Carpet and will absolutely use them again for future projects."

"What can I say about George and Carpet Pharmacy other than praise....not a single thing. George worked with me and my busy schedule and we were able to get my bedroom and hallway carpets stretched just in time to receive my new bedroom furniture. The carpets look almost brand new like they were when they were first laid. George is very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He even vacuumed up the carpet shavings when he was done. I highly recommend George and Carpet Pharmacy for all your carpet repair needs."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, there are plenty of ways to lay stair carpet without grippers, such as carpet adhesive, magnetic flooring, or staples. Adhesive may be your best bet if you don’t want grippers, as it will most likely stick the best and cause the least amount of damage. However, if you’re looking for an easy fix, grippers are one of the best solutions you can purchase.

DIY installation is challenging; professionals ensure proper fitting, adhesive application, and long-term durability.

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 have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

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.
