"David was very responsive and cooperative. I had to reschedule the appointment once, and David was quite understanding about it. The rate quoted to me for the service was the most competitive that I had found. In addition to that, he had a 5% discount promotion going on for Angies List members. On the scheduled day, the professional who arrived (unfortunately I cannot recall his name) was very nice and helpful. We were still in the process of moving some of the furniture around and he did not mind that. There was a decently big sized rug that he cleaned for us for free. And when I told him that I had allergies, he went to extent of moving a few things to hit areas under large furniture such as beds etc. At the end of it all, I was quite pleased with the results. Great service, quality results and at a very nice price."

"We contacted Zavala to replace the carpet in our small hallway with hardwood. We had trouble finding someone to do it due to the small area (around 40 square feet). Zavala came out to take a look and did the job in about 2 hours the same day. Highly recommend."

"I already had the carpet and needed someone to install it on my stairs. I got four bids and Live Oak Flooring was the lowest. I hesitated going with them since I could not find many reviews. But they did come recommended by a competitor that only did larger jobs. The two guys did an excellent job. I am so glad I went with Live Oak Flooring."

"My carpet installation was scheduled for Friday, April 2nd, 2021. When the installers showed up to lay the carpet, they didn't have enough to carpet all of the areas that I'd wanted re-carpeted. So, I decided to just have vinyl plank flooring put in in the bathroom instead. This was then scheduled for Friday, April 9th, 2021. When they showed up to do this work, they once again didn't have enough plank flooring, so the work had to be postponed until Wednesday, April 14th."

"Gus and his crew of painters, Arturo, Marisol and Gabriel, are second to none. Not only did they do an outstanding job with the painting and cabinetry, but they moved everything room by room and put everything back EXACTLY how it was placed originally. They made the experience very livable. We are having carpeting installed soon and will have GG Remodeling handle that job as well."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Carpet installation typically starts with removing the old flooring, preparing the subfloor, laying underpadding for cushioning, and securing the new carpet with tack strips, making precise cuts to fit room dimensions.

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your carpet, consider its age, the extent of the damage, and its location. It's often best to replace the entire carpet if the damage is extensive, such as large sections needing replacement, or if it's caused by water, which can lead to mold problems. Similarly, if your carpet is nearing a decade old, replacement is likely the more logical choice. On the other hand, consider repairing your carpet if the damage is localized to one spot, like minor rips or snags, the carpet is still relatively new, or the damage is in a low-traffic area of your home.

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

Many DIYers and pros start installing flooring in the middle of a room to ensure a balanced, symmetrical layout, especially when using tiles or planks. This process is particularly helpful in odd-shaped rooms because it allows you to create a centerline from which to work. Beginning in the center will enable you to work toward the edges so the final layout feels intentional and centered, even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.
