Can I install carpet myself?

• <div><p>While it’s possible to install carpet yourself, it’s best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/carpet-installation/">local carpet installer</a> to ensure it’s done correctly and safely. Before installing carpet yourself, check whether the manufacturer’s warranty will remain intact. Many manufacturer’s warranties won’t cover the cost of materials under the warranty if it wasn’t installed by a pro. In addition, you should only install carpet yourself if you’re familiar with the tools required and if the installation is straightforward, not involving things such as floor vents or stairs. </p></div>

Q: How long does a subfloor last?

• <div><p>A subfloor will often last for the life of the house&mdash;somewhere between 50 and 100 years&mdash;if it avoids water damage, mold, termites, and other things that can cause it to age faster. If a subfloor sees continued exposure to moisture, it can warp, grow mold, or rot and last a much shorter time.</p></div>

Q: Which type of flooring is best for the kitchen?

• <div><p>Impervious or vitreous tile and vinyl flooring work best for the kitchen. These surfaces are non-porous (or have a very low porosity) that can stand up against spills, splashes, and plumbing leaks. Some natural stones are also a good fit, but keep porosity in mind. You may need to seal them to avoid stains and water damage to the subfloor.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to stretch a carpet?

• <div><p>Carpet stretching increases the lifespan of the carpet and eliminates unsightly wrinkles, ridges, and ripples. It is certainly worth it if you seek to extend the life of wall-to-wall carpeting, though it depends on the individual and the carpet itself. If the carpet looks fine, it likely is fine. Restretch the carpet when you notice looseness and a high number of related issues.</p></div>

Q: When remodeling a kitchen, do you do floors or cabinets first?

• <div><p>Contractors commonly <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cabinets-or-flooring-first.htm">install floors before cabinets</a> during a kitchen remodel. It&rsquo;s the standard option when installing hardwood, vinyl, and tile flooring. Installing flooring first helps prevent height misalignment, ensures a seamless appearance, and saves extra flooring work and costs if you plan to replace or remove any cabinets later.</p></div>
