Can I install carpet myself?

<div>While it’s possible to install carpet yourself, it’s best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/carpet-installation/">local carpet installer</a> to ensure it’s done correctly and safely. Before installing carpet yourself, check whether the manufacturer’s warranty will remain intact. Many manufacturer’s warranties won’t cover the cost of materials under the warranty if it wasn’t installed by a pro. In addition, you should only install carpet yourself if you’re familiar with the tools required and if the installation is straightforward, not involving things such as floor vents or stairs. </div>

How do I keep my new carpet clean?

<div>Keeping your new carpet clean is vital to extending its longevity. Vacuuming regularly—at least once a week—can help remove dirt, debris, and pet hair. Instead of waiting, treating stains as they appear helps keep your carpet fibers looking fresh. Remember to blot rather than rub, rubbing will only make the stain larger. It’s ideal to hire a professional carpet cleaning service to conduct a deep cleaning of your carpets a few times per year. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-carpet-cleaning-cost.htm">cost of professional carpet cleaning</a> is $180 on average, which can help remove tough stains, draw out hidden dust and allergens, and eliminate odors. </div>

What are the different types of carpets?

<div>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-types-carpet-fibers.htm">different types of carpets</a> for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:<ul><li>Fiber: Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic. </li><li>Pile type: Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.</li><li>Pile height: Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.</li><li>Density: Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other. </li></ul></div>

How much does carpet installation cost?

<div>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">cost to install carpet</a> 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. </div>

Professional. Communicated during the whole process. Installed toilets and faucets and replaced valves. Wore booties without asking, kept debris and material off floors and carpeting. Would use them again.

Counters were ok, but the installed sink has issues. However, the carpet was horrible. Terrible quality despite promises of strong durability, and bucking in every room. After just over a year, we are replacing the carpet once more...though with someone reputable this time!
