"We’ve used this company multiple times for both laminate flooring and carpet removal/installation, and they have been consistently outstanding. Their attention to detail is impressive, the quality of their work is top-tier, and they always stay on schedule—which is hard to find these days. Everything is done efficiently without ever feeling rushed, and the final results always exceed our expectations. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our flooring projects. Highly recommend!"

"The entire process was very easy yet professional, with good pricing, great craftsmanship, quality materials and on time delivery. We had hardwood floors installed in our dining room and front room. We then had the master bedroom hallway and steps carpeted. IM retired and it was amazing how well the crews worked together with minimal disruption. We have two more bedrooms and our pool room to be re-carpeted and won't think of using anyone else. Thank you Joel and the Team at Diamond Carpet Services LLC for superior service."

"We highly recommend Bernardo! He saved our favorite family rug! It had unknowingly fallen out of the back of our vehicle and was thrown into the bottom of a grocery store dumpster. Parts of it sat in black oil/ grease that proved impossible to get out. So Bernardo rethreaded the stained areas and did an incredible job! Better than I thought possible, I can barely tell where the repaired areas are. He's truly a master of his craft and was so wonderful to work with! He was helpful in arranging shipping, gave me updates throughout the process, gave it a good cleaning, and was fairly priced. We couldn't be happier with how our rug turned out! Thankful to have found his business!"

"This was an emergency service call as I was in-between guest coming to our short term rental property. They were able to remove the stains and orders from the carpet and there were no complaints from other guest staying in that room (30 days later)."

Customers say: True professional

"Very smooth install. Ed was nice, personable, and timely. He installed the solar lights efficiently and correctly. And they function perfectly. Fee was very reasonable as well. He’s agreed to install similar lights next weekend at our daughter’s home located about 10 minutes away. We’re in the market for a new handyman, so would not hesitate to contact Ed again. Thank you."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

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 removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

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.
