Why are stairs so expensive to carpet?

• <div><p>Installing carpet on stairs involves a lot more cutting, tucking, tack strips, and time. The shape of your staircase, along with the material and construction of the carpet you’re installing, will also increase the cost. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-carpet-stairs.htm">Carpet installation on stairs will cost</a> $400 to $800 in total, but it can go as high as $2,500 for difficult staircases, such as wrap-around, upholstered, or spiral staircases.</p></div>

How do you budget for carpet?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-repair-cost.htm">carpet repair costs</a>, it makes sense to buy the best-quality carpet you can afford.</p></div>

Q: How hard is it to remove old laminate flooring?

• <div><p>Removing laminate flooring is fairly straightforward compared to removing other types of flooring. The planks click and lock into place, so you can pry them loose without much fuss. If you plan to reuse your flooring, you must be careful not to damage the plank or the locking mechanism that keeps it in place. If it&rsquo;s in good condition, you can reuse it in another room.</p></div>

Q: How to fix squeaky floorboards without removing carpet?

• <div><p>While it may not always be ideal, you can fix a squeaky floorboard without removing the carpet. Pros use specialized carpet screws and drive them through the carpet into the subfloor, securing floorboards. They may also use nails instead of screws if they suspect the pile will get caught in the screw. While some types of carpet will hide the screws and nails, a low-pile carpet may not. </p></div>

Q: Is it normal to glue carpet down?

• <div><p>It is normal to glue carpet down, though it&rsquo;s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY&rsquo;d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation. </p></div>
