Is carpet nailed or glued?

• <div><p>Carpet is most often affixed to the floor by tacks in tack strips rather than nailed or glued directly to the subfloor. The tack strips are nailed to wood subfloors. Even if you want to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-install-carpet-on-concrete.htm">install carpet over concrete</a>, you’ll adhere the tack strips to the concrete with masonry nails or a liquid adhesive. </p></div>

How long does carpet protection last?

• <div><p>You can expect your carpet protection to last about six months to two years. It will last longer in low-traffic areas (compared to busy areas, where your carpet experiences more wear and tear). Once the protector wears off, you’ll need to call your carpet contractor to reapply the stain protection treatment and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-tips-clean-and-revive-carpet-pile.htm">revive your carpet</a>. </p></div>

Q: Do you need a special floor in a wet room?

• <div><p>In a wet room, you need a floor that won&rsquo;t sustain damage with constant exposure to water, but your options are normally the same as with a bathroom. Ceramic and porcelain tile are suitable options, as are natural stone like granite and marble, much like in a standard bathroom. Since a wet room&rsquo;s floor is more likely to be wet, you should choose a flooring option with some texture to reduce how slippery the material gets.</p></div>

Q: Does damaged subfloor need to be replaced?

• <div><p>Dry rot or severe water damage may warrant a replacement, but you don&rsquo;t always need to replace damaged subflooring. If your subfloor has warped because it was installed incorrectly, you can sometimes shim the panels (in other words, add a thin, wedge-shaped piece of wood to level the surface). If your subfloor bows upward, you may be able to sand it down at the joist so it&rsquo;s level, depending on the extent of the damage. </p></div>

Q: What flooring isn’t good for underfloor heating?

• <div><p>You can use underfloor heating with most kinds of flooring. However, particularly thick carpet will create problems, since it will absorb a lot of the heat and make it difficult to feel. Also, there are some concerns that underfloor heating can dry out natural wood over time, so if you have wood flooring, get an expert opinion on whether radiant heating is appropriate. </p></div>

Herb was very easy to deal with. He came out when he said he would . He communicated with us very well and did a great job on our wood floor. I highly recommend him if you need floors repaired or refinished.

He sends his son who is most inept. I also think he helped himself to my premium cascade pellets as they were in the floor close to where he was looking at the leak and I noticed a pretty full carton was down to half. He had a pretty stuffed bag while walking out.
