"My wall to wall carpets were a disaster. Hews Carpet Care LLC saved them. Now I don't have to buy replacement carpeting. The price was reasonable for the amount of carpet I have."

"Due to all the rain we had last few weeks, we had the water coming into our basement and damaging our carpet. So for the second time we turn to District Floor Depot. They offer the excellent selection of products, stress-free installation and very good price. I would highly recommend District Floor Depot to anybody in a need of new floors."

"I didnt like the fact that the tech did not have on shoe covers and he walked all over the rooms that were being treated. I did not appreciate that at all. And when I asked why he wasnt wearing them, he said he was going to back out of the living room to the outside so he couldnt walk on the carpet when he was done. Not acceptable. It appeared as if my concern was of little importance to him. Because he didnt have on shoe covers, i had to unplug the machine for him when he was done. Also, the carpet smelled sour after cleaning instead of fresh. perhaps the machine where the water was being held needed to be cleaned. As for the furniture, he did remove some light stains from the seat cushions, but the back pillows were not nearly cleaned to my satisfaction. I wont be using them again. All I saw was plain water coming out of the house to clean the carpet and chairs."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

The average cost to install new flooring is around $3,162, with a typical price range between $1,530 and $4,860. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay an average of $3 to $22, including installation. Several factors influence the total price, including the flooring material, project size, geographic location, and any special features. Material choice is a significant cost driver; vinyl plank, linoleum, and carpet are on the lower end ($3 to $7 per square foot), while stone, tile, and hardwood are more expensive, with hardwood reaching up to $22 per square foot. Prices can also vary by region, and installing flooring on stairs will add to the cost, typically ranging from $11 to $160 per step.

Carpeting has a few benefits on stairs in addition to being a cost-effective floor covering. It absorbs sound, dampening footsteps. It also provides additional traction, which is especially important if you install linoleum floors, epoxy flooring, or any other floor covering that can become slippery if you’re wearing socks. Therefore, carpets can help prevent slips. 

Taking carpet off stairs is an easy but multi-step process you can usually do yourself. If you have the right tools, time, and oomph to finish the job, removing carpet from stairs can be an easy-to-medium difficulty task, depending on your stairs, the type of carpet installed, and how willing you are to get your hands dirty. It’s important to review the process, gather the right tools before you begin, and follow a tutorial or directions while you work.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.
