"I enjoyed meeting Teddy and the quality of his services. I needed carpet cleaning quickly and he was willing to fit me in within 24 hours. He will definitely be my carpet cleaner in future!"
"Kevin did a great job! He was very helpful, punctual etc. My carpet looks very nice and without bad odors! He likes to have his customers happy like I am!?"
"Excellent. They returned the rooms to their condition prior to installation. The cleaned up so well after themselves that we wondered whether they had actually been in our house, then we looked at the new carpet. Excellent family business, multi generational, courteous, helpful, good problem solvers. Would definitely use them again, and would recommend them without reservation. They were not the least expensive, but were the best."
"We had just bought a house and had tried cleaning the existing carpet. There was some left over smell of smoke and per urine on carpet that just wouldn’t go away. We received a couple of estimates for carpet replacement. You just couldn’t beat the pricing that Empire had. The deal they gave us was ridiculous. My wife and i love the new carpet."
Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts
Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.
However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.
No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area.
For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.
Carpet installation typically starts with removing the old flooring, preparing the subfloor, laying underpadding for cushioning, and securing the new carpet with tack strips, making precise cuts to fit room dimensions.
In most cases, carpeting isn’t kind to the wood that it’s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.
The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.
