"Joe, from Keuka sweeps, came on time with all the supplies he would need. He vacuumed up lots of dust and dirt....and mopped the floors after that. He cleaned the bathroom and kitchen beautifully. He was delightful to work with. Now our house looks so clean and smells great too."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

A transition piece between carpet stairs and wood flooring isn't always necessary. A transition piece separates two types of flooring in between rooms and areas, like carpet and vinyl. Because the carpet on the stairs tucks into the seam, you can’t see the fringes, and there is no need to hide anything. However, you can use a stair cap if your stairs have a nose.

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

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

Professional installation ensures seamless fitting, extended carpet life, and compliance with workplace standards.
