"My wife and I visited several showrooms in deciding how to remodel the floors in our home.  Mr Halfon was most helpful and professional in assisting us.  He was able to answer our questions about carpet and wood flooring, and gave us excellent recommendations concerning what to do about certain problem areas.  His prices were competitive and he usesonly his own employees to do his installations.  He came out to our homeand brought the samples of flooring we liked so we could see it in our own home.  His crew did a great job of installation.  They had to work in a home  with lots of exisiting furniture.  Mr Halfon  checked on the job and kept us informed.  He warned us of potential problems, which we did encounter, ( tile under the carpet, uneven slab etc.), and which changed the original estimate slightly.  Overall we are very pleased with the floors he installed in our home.  We replaced the carpet in our hall and bedrooms and installed hardwood in our den, living room and dining room.  My wife loves the floors.

"We decided to replace our entire downstairs area of Engineered Wood that had been down a while. I looked at a lot of flooring companies and just wasn't seeing what I wanted. Then I passed Carpet Connection on FM1960, stopped in, and met Darryl Wisenbaker. Darryl took a lot of time showing me everything and I decided on Luxury Vinyl Plank-Karndean-Santina Cherry. He sent me home with 4 good size samples to choose from. We picked out the color and Darryl scheduled the installers. They were very hard working, very knowledgeable, and respectful of our home. We were so pleased, we decided to replace our carped in the Master bedroom, and again, completely thrilled with Carpet Connection. I would highly recommend Carpet Connection on FM1960. You will not be disappointed."

"2 men showed up right on time. very professional. Told me up front cost and what they would do and how long it would take. They also had to move large furniture. I'm very happy with results. Carpet was original and never cleaned before...24 years old. I would hire them again."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Several types of flooring can be installed over existing tile, provided the current tiles are in good condition. Options include vinyl, vinyl plank, laminate, engineered wood, hardwood, carpet, and cork. Among these, various types of vinyl and engineered wood are the most common choices due to their versatility. Alternatively, you can install new tiles on top of your current ones if you like tile floors but want to update the look. Before proceeding with any new flooring, it's crucial to ensure your existing tiles are not damaged; otherwise, they will need to be removed first.

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.

On average, installing carpet costs between $3 and $11 per square foot, depending on factors like the carpet material, style, and labor rates in your area. Sometimes, installers will include carpet removal in these costs, so if you don’t have any carpet to remove, you can save time and spend less money on labor.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

Yes, nylon carpets are suitable for homes with allergies due to their hypoallergenic properties. Nylon fibers are resistant to mold and mildew growth, minimizing allergen accumulation in the carpet. Additionally, nylon carpets are often treated to repel moisture and stains, further reducing the risk of allergens and promoting a healthier indoor environment for allergy sufferers.
