"Replaced old linoleum flooring with Pergo wood laminate flooring in kitchen. Friendly, professional gentleman with attention to detail who got the flooring done concisely and in a timely manner. Excellent work ethic, which is a rare find these days. Highly recommended!"

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"Our WS Flooring experience was fantastic! Wayne Settle paid close attention to all the details for a quality installation. He also took the time necessary trying to locate materials that matched our existing wood flooring. Exact color matched flooring materials were not available, so he took raw wood samples, hand stained the samples with different stains, showed us the results, then we selected the perfect color match. The end result was excellent, and we were extremely satisfied. Outstanding performance Wayne... Thank you!"

"Wayne was wonderful from start to finish. Exceptionally careful with our things already in the house; working around our things and schedule; and exceptional work installing our floor. We rebuilt a house and installed 1200 sq ft of reclaimed oak of various lengths and widths. The wood we provided was far from perfect with uneven ends and a lot of holes. Wayne was an absolute professional putting it all together and keeping us up to date on the progress. The job came out better than we could have hoped. Great price, great service, strongest recommendation we can give."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Decent carpet will last around 10 years on stairs. Some less durable carpets, like polyester, will only last five years on stairs. The ideal carpet, like wool or nylon, can last about 15 to 25 years. You’ll know when to replace it when it starts wearing down. You may have to replace it sooner if it's stained, whether due to water damage or pets.

To prevent your dining room carpet from slipping, consider using rug pads or grippers underneath to provide traction and stability. Additionally, ensure the carpet is properly sized and secured to the floor to minimize movement. Regularly check and readjust the rug to maintain its position and safety under your dining room table.

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.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.
