"Dishonest, Unprofessional, Shoddy Work* I’ve read people’s horrible experiences with contractors in the past and always cringed and felt sorry for them but thought, “wow, glad that wasn’t me.” Well, my time came with JR’s Quality Tile & Hardwood. From the start, the owner, Fred, made the experience difficult and it only got worse from there. And yes, I should have listened to my gut at first hint of problem but after reading so many positive reviews online I pressed on. I hired the company to remodel my bathroom after a water leak. I selected all the materials, got the quote and then out of the blue, Fred started asking me to consider other materials but could never provide a clear reason. Living in an old house where there are no even floors, I worried that his questions were steering me to a product better suited for the unevenness in my bathroom but when I repeatedly asked why he only said ‘comfort’ and ‘warmer under foot’. Most of the remodel was done by Tommy, with whom I have no complaints. He did great work installing the tile. The problems I had were solely with Fred and his son. The wainscotting I selected was to be painted, however, once the tile was done the plumber reinstalled the sink and toilet on Fred’s direction meaning that proper painting could not be done behind those items. I asked Fred how the painting would be done and he replied in email, “we’ll do our best to paint around it.” For a $10k+ job I don’t expect half-assed work and I said so. At this time, Fred also told me that they were 25% over budget and wanted to ‘give me a heads up’ so I knew before I got the bill. Never mentioned any of this earlier in the project when the overruns started! He argued with me that the wainscotting really didn’t need painting though I had a line item in quote for painting, and I sent photos of the blemishes, pencil marks and writing (someone wrote ‘TOP’) on the waincotting; then he felt that he shouldn’t have to pay for the plumber’s time; then he finally agreed to the plumber and told me that this son would be doing the painting. After his son was onsite for a few hours and got one coat done on the baseboards, trim and wainscotting he was supposed to return the next day to finish, but oops he forgot that he had orientation for a new job he was starting and wouldn't be back as Fred told me the morning of so Fred came to finish the work. He was onsite for a few hours, painted a bit and reinstalled the toilet and sink. After a few days, I was able to fully see the shoddy work the son and Fred did. In addition to not fixing the over-sanded trim, the baseboards and wainscotting were never caulked before painting so there were large cracks in every seam, many of pencil marks on the wainscotting were still visible, Fred grouted around the pipes in the floor connecting the radiator which my heating company told me should never have been done as it constricted the expansion / contraction needs of the pipes and could have caused huge issues. I spent more than $1,000 to fix the problems Fred and his son created and to properly finish the work they should have done. I deducted this from the amount I agreed to pay, documenting all of the issues he left with photos. When he replied to my email he had the gall to mention that he never even tried to fix the over-sanded trim. Without a doubt THE worst ‘professional’ I’ve ever worked with."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on carpet quality, labor, underlayment, and furniture moving requirements.

The first step in budgeting for carpet is to determine the amount of carpet you need and the type of carpet you want. You might be tempted to opt for the least expensive option if you have a limited budget, but a low-quality carpet won’t last as long as a high-quality one. When accounting for future carpet repair costs, it makes sense to buy the best-quality carpet you can afford.

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.

If you want your carpet to last as long as possible, then yes, you need to install carpet padding. Carpet padding creates a layer of protection between the back of your carpet and the floor beneath it, which decreases friction and reduces wear and tear. Aside from that, carpet padding also helps absorb noise and makes your carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.

Even if you’re just replacing your carpet and not your baseboards, experts recommend removing existing baseboards before installing new carpet. This allows for a clean and seamless installation without the risk of damaging the baseboards or the carpet. Additionally, removing the baseboards gives you the opportunity to stain or repaint them as well as inspect and repair any underlying issues with the walls or flooring.
