"The rep showed up on time and was very personable. The appointment was around 8pm which was kind of annoying but that wasn't his fault. He asked what my objective was as he could see that the home was an active construction site. I told him I was a professional investor and this was either going to be a rental or flip, depending on budget. He explained he could get me a wholesale account rate since the home was owned by a business., but he had to call someone in management to get this pricing. The guy didn't answer, almost certainly because by now the clock was pushing 9pm. While we were waiting he punched some numbers in his computer and told me that if he hadn't had this great idea my price for 2 small bedrooms, a small landing and 12 stairs would have been almost $2500. Lucky me. Then after waiting awhile I told him we could both leave since I had a family I would like to see before 11pm and he could call or text me when he got pricing. He said that was not advisable because he had to get everything done in person if I wanted to hit my job deadline. OK. Finally the guy calls back, and the rep relayed what my special pricing was going to be. I told him it was too high and I needed it to be a couple hundred less to hit my budget, and I was going to make a couple more calls, but if his deal was the best I would call him back. He responded by saying he knew I would because that was basically the best carpet price ever quoted for my size job. Then he said I might be able to find cheaper but you can also buy a car for really cheap if it has no wheels. Luckily I was able to locate some carpet elsewhere that I would compare to a car that has wheels, looks and feels really nice, and met my budget. Like I said, nice guy but if I'm being honest I could have done without the whole experience."

"Very easy to work with and super professional. We had a flood at our office, the owner of Floors Done Right was quick to give a fair bid on the project. Once accepted they were in and out quickly with excellent workmanship. Very clean and they were accommodating to not disrupt business yet get it done quickly and it looks great!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

Yes, you can put carpet directly on concrete. However, you need to take certain precautions to ensure the success of the carpet installation. For example, you’ll need to choose a synthetic carpet pad to provide insulation and cushioning and a vapor barrier to prevent moisture from seeping into the carpet.

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

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.
