"Very well, but the store was tardy to deliver the pad. Installers were timely, but had to wait for the pad. Very good price on the carpet which was low end (for a rental unit)."

"Donna was a pleasure to speak with to set up my appointment. Bobby arrived on time and asked us about any specific things we mY have wanted done. He was very professional, while being very friendly. He was able to get all the stains out of our rugs and went above and beyond . Bobbyâ s a very hard worker and my 10 year old rug looks brand new! Thank you Bobby for your hard work and attention to detail. We will be recommending you to our friends and neighbors! We will definitely be using Horry Carpet Cleaning again! You all get a perfect score in my book!"

"
Bob from Creative Flooring was both courteous, punctual, and fair in his pricing. We were thrilled with the service and timeliness of our
installation. Creative Flooring also does tile work, which we will be using them for in the near future. I highly recommend this company, and any of the providers they may recommend, as I am sure they are as good as Creative Flooring, or they would not recommend them."

"Called FloorTech of SC after carpet installer I initially hired, backed out. Initial installer (names withheld) came to look at the job with 3 helpers and told me he couldn't do the job, because it was going to take more that 1 day. This left me desperate! I found FloorTech of SC on Angie's List, called them and the owner showed up within 2 hours to look at the job. I needed the job done quickly, so FloorTech of SC came out on a Sunday (owner and 1 helper) and finished the job in about 3.5 hours. Very reasonable price, too! I will hire them for all my flooring needs! Thank you John for bailing me out and getting the job done!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.

If the stairs are already covered in carpet, you will need to remove the old carpet and possibly the carpet pad. Any damage to the stairs like cracks, loose boards, or creaky treads may also need to be repaired. You may also want to sand and refinish or paint wood stairs before installing a carpet runner.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.

The cost to install carpet is $1,780 on average for 330 square feet, the size of an average living room. This cost could range from $200 to $5,000, depending on the amount of carpet, material, and type of carpet. 

If you need 500 square feet of carpet, it’ll cost $1,500 to $5,500, while 1,000 square feet of carpet costs $3,000 to $11,000. Polyester is one of the more affordable options, ranging from $1 to $3 per square foot. Wool is a more luxurious option, ranging from $4 to $20 per square foot
