Some of my issues with the insatll are; there are visable seams, the installers did not have a working vacuum to clean up the dust and debris so they tried to sweep it with a broom, the taping of the seams in padding.
I made my selections of padding and carpet based on the fact that this house is a rental house. I selected a moisture resistant pad so the padding might not be soaked with moisture from steam cleaning and or pets. I discovered the old padding was also moisture resistand and the seams were carefully taped with duct tape and seemed very moisture proof and were of a high quality. The carpet wholesaler installers used a paper masking type of tape which did not seem moisture proof and did not seem to stick to the padding very well. It was pretty obvious because I kept the old moisture proof padding in two of the rooms so the quality of the new install was easy to compare as the old and new were side by side. I mainly purchased the more expensive padding based on Christinia's information about moisture resistance. I don't think that was a good choice based on the type of tape used as I believe any moisture will quickly find its way into the padding through the seams.
The company promises to remove and haul away the old carpet and padding. The reality is if the carpet is pet stained and smelly they won't haul it away. They will haul it to the road with some very firm prodding. I understand this policy the carpet installers don't want a smelly van when they haul the new carpet to the house. I just wish I had know that before hand. They left the stained carpet and padding in the garage and when they were leaving they didn't want to take it to the curb. I had to insist that they haul it to the curb. In the end I said I would help them and the three of us carried carpet to the curb.
I believe the quality of the install would have been worse if I was not present watching what was done. Of course it does look better than what was there. The installers did there best. It seems like a grueling job and I understand they didn't want to haul anymore carpet than they had to on a hot 90 degree day. There may be a reason why they don't use the standard silver duct for padding seems but they should as it seemed to be effective based on looking at he existing padding from ten years ago.
It was excellent. They recommended the carpet and the carpet quality was excellent. It was what I wanted and what I asked for. They were very informative. They knew about the product that was in the carpet. They also told me about the warranty on the carpet, which was excellent and that is through the carpet manufacturer. If need be, I would use their services in the future too.
