"It was very easy to work with District Floor Depot. I had called 5 other companies to compare; the process was very cumbersome and complicated at the others and their products didn't seem that great. From start to finish, it was super easy with DFD - they were responsive, friendly, knowledgeable and explained the entire process. They came the very next day to take measurements and bring samples (very nice options to choose from) to my location and give me a quote. They were flexible in working with my building management on delivering and installing the wood floors, and in hauling away the old carpet. Their crew did a thorough job and the place looks incredible. Great product and great service!"

"Sam came and gave me an estimate which was very reasonable for installing wood flooring in a bedroom. His crew dropped the materials off as scheduled and came exactly on time to install the flooring two days later. They too arrived precisely on time, removed the old carpeting and installed the new floor in two hours. When they were done, they swept the room, the upstairs hall, the stairs and the downstairs hall. The crew was very professional and the floor looks wonderful. I am delighted."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

The type of flooring you choose for your bedroom comes down to personal preference. Many people prefer carpet over hard-surface flooring types (such as hardwood, tile, or stone) in their bedrooms because it’s warmer and cozier. Carpeting also helps muffle sound, which may benefit those who have trouble sleeping.

On the other hand, some folks prefer the look of hardwood over carpet. People with allergies might also opt for non-carpeted flooring since carpet fibers can attract dust, dander, and other allergens.

Carpet padding costs an average of $510 to purchase and install in a 225-square-foot room. The price can range from as low as $170 to as much as $850, depending on the brand, the thickness, and the labor cost. Although carpet padding will increase the overall cost of carpet installation, it also helps the carpet hold up longer, reduces noise in the room, and provides more insulation.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

If you don’t put padding under your carpet, the carpet won’t be protected from wear on the underside. This could result in a shorter life span for your carpet and increased carpet repair costs over time. An unpadded carpet can also be less comfortable to walk on, depending on your subfloor and the type of carpet.
