"He did a GREAT job matching up a patch area of carpeting that my dog decided to tear up. I did not have the money to replace the entire living room and had a remnant piece of carpeting that he was able to cut and patch in. GREAT work!!! Would definitely recommend his services!"

"I was truly impressed by the exceptional quality of service provided by RIVERVIEW CARPETING. I sincerely appreciated their efficient and responsive customer service, the level of detail and accountability they exhibited as my projects were completed, and the overall manner in which they conducted business as a whole. I used Angie’s List to select four companies who specialized in carpet installation. After meeting with Mr. Bob Bierly, my search was over. He listened to all my concerns with a great deal of patience and provided timely and helpful advice regarding brands, products, and recommended features. Mr. Bierly displayed a high level of professionalism, experience, dedication and commitment to quality that was compelling and sincere. During the installation process, the collective abilities of the skilled workers were complimentary to each other and were of great value to the meticulous installation process. I would definitely recommend Riverview Carpeting to others with no hesitation."

"Young Brothers Flooring did an amazing job on installation of our new carpet. We replaced carpet in the master bedroom, stairways, hallway, family room and finished basement. The installers were very professional and did a great job. They were courteous and thoughtful. The carpet looks wonderful and we are very happy with the results. The price was fair and they worked with our schedule to time the installation. Thank you Young Brothers!"

"The 2-man team arrived early in the 2 hour window, used teh wall-to-wall carpet stretcher tool, and completed the project with attention to detail, trimming off excess carpet.. It was revealed that the original carpet underlayment wasn't tacked down on one side of the rooms. We are satisfied with this service & would recommend the company."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Carpet is an effective natural insulator, so it will make a room slightly warmer than laminate. The material’s insulating properties also make carpeted rooms more efficient for temperature regulation.

Avoid placing carpet in the bathroom or the kitchen. After all, moisture is no friend to carpeting. Beyond that, it’s down to personal preference. Some people dislike when a garage or basement features carpet, but others enjoy it.

Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:

  • Stains that are impossible to remove.

  • A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.

  • An increase in allergy symptoms.

  • The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.

When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.

Installing carpet tile takes a pro a few hours per room, while experienced DIYers may take a little longer. However, that does not factor in the time needed to remove the old carpet. Also, if there are issues with the subfloor, fixing it will add to the overall time it takes to complete the installation.
