Q: Do you install flooring before cabinets?

• <div><p>Whether you install flooring before or after kitchen cabinets depends primarily on the type of flooring you are using. For materials like hardwood, tile, and sheet flooring, the best practice is to install the flooring first. This ensures the cabinets are installed at the correct height and on a stable surface. However, you should not install cabinets on top of floating floors, such as laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP). These types of flooring need room to expand and contract with temperature and humidity changes. Placing heavy cabinets on top can restrict this movement, potentially causing the floor to buckle and making the cabinets unstable. For floating floors, install the cabinets first and then lay the flooring up to them. Other reasons to consider installing cabinets before the flooring include saving money on materials (since you won't need flooring under the cabinets) and avoiding potential damage to your new floor during cabinet installation. Additionally, installing cabinets directly on the subfloor might prevent voiding your flooring's warranty.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to put flooring in an attic?

• <div><p>The cost to put wooden flooring in an attic can run a wide range. Carpeting can cost as little as $1 per square foot, or even less if you opt for unfinished flooring types like rubber or painted plywood. On the high end, hardwood floors might cost as much as $45 dollars per square foot. For a previously unused space, you&rsquo;ll probably need to add a subfloor which usually costs about $5 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: How do I install carpet padding?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">carpet installation costs</a> by doing it yourself. Before installing the carpet padding, you should install the tack strips around the room&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How much does commercial carpet installation cost?

• <div><p>The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.</p></div>

Q: Why does padding stick to the floors?

• <div><p>There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:</p><ul><li><p>There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.</p></li><li><p>The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.</p></li><li><p>Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.</p></li></ul><p>If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-get-smell-pet-urine-out-carpet.htm">removing pet urine odors</a> to prevent future problems.</p></div>
