"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!"

"I have 3 massive dogs and up until a few months ago as soon as you opened the back door to the yard, it was nothing but mud from the door to the fence in all directions. And because the dogs need to go out 100 times a day, that mud did not stay outside. It was brought into my master bedroom and stomped into my carpet time and time again. I thought I had gotten it all cleaned up with my carpet cleaner but Kevin proved I have no idea how to clean carpet. He is seriously a pro and his meticulous attention detail is unmatched. Not only did he spend hours working on that one room, he came back the next day to do it again because he just wasn't satisfied with the initial result. I cannot recommend him enough. He is absolutely fantastic and I am actually a little sad to be moving out of state and out of his service zone. If you need your carpets cleaned, call Kevin. You won't find anyone better and you won't be disappointed."

"Awesome. Anthony responded immediately to our inquiry and scheduled an estimate for cleaning the basement carpet. He came out and did a thorough assessment of the work to be done, explained his process, and provided a fair estimate. The work was scheduled within just a few days. Excellent communication, regular updates. Anthony takes pride in his work and with good reason - our carpet looks new! He even freshened up our living room carpet at no extra charge. We are so happy and will contact Anthony from now on whenever we need carpet cleaning."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Experts advise that replacing carpeting can bring a 50% to 80% return on investment. However, new carpeting doesn’t necessarily add value to your overall home value. Because flooring value heavily depends on taste, it can be tricky to determine whether new carpet will increase your home sale price. Carpeting tends to be a renovation that increases overall comfort and aesthetics for your home, but it’s not a big factor in value.

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.

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.

A 65-oz. carpet is good, and in many cases, it indicates a premium carpet. Most carpets for homes should fall in the range of 40 to 60 ounces for face weight. If a carpet has a 65-oz. face weight, it is likely more durable and long-lasting than a similar carpet with a lower face weight. Carpet face weight is just one factor in determining a carpet’s quality. 

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.
