"When we finished building our home and hired The Clean Standard for the post construction cleaning before moving in. Megan did an amazing job. There was construction dust everywhere, along with residue on the floors, cabinets, windows, trim, and fixtures, and she was incredibly thorough. By the time she finished, the house finally felt like a home instead of a construction site. Everything looked fresh, polished, and move-in ready. She paid attention to details we honestly would have missed ourselves. If you?ve just built or remodeled a home and need someone who knows how to handle a true post construction clean, I highly recommend The Clean Standard."

"Searching the internet for local cleaners to complete a deep clean prior to the holiday was a stressful and tedious process. I found NuClean through Angi ,requested a quote and they responded promptly. After patiently answering all of my questions (I ask a lot of questions..) regarding their services, I booked a deep cleaning (3 bed/3 bath). Taria and Josh arrived to our home as scheduled and greeted us as if we were friends who hadn’t seen each other in awhile. We have two dogs, so I took Taria & Josh on a quick tour of the home with a game plan to transfer the dogs. Dear reader.. When I tell you that upon completion of the bottom floor, I requested them to come back, I AM NOT KIDDING. As we simultaneously worked on laundry and other things in the house, it felt like we assembled a team of friends to help us get the house ready for a party. We absolutely loved having them in our home and they did an amazing job. (Amazing doesn’t even really cut it.. if you are thinking about it, do it. Just do it) We are so thankful that NuClean was able to see us, provide the type of clean that immediately makes you feel like a weight has lifted off of you, and have the opportunity to work with them again. Some say, when you want it done right, you have to do it yourself.. We are here to say you don’t, HIRE NuClean NOW, but don’t’ book them out so far they cant’t come back to our house!!"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.

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.

Carpet density refers to how closely together the fibers of a carpet are stitched into the carpet backing, with values ranging from 1,000 to 7,000. A carpet density value of 3,000 or higher is considered best for most homes, especially in high-traffic areas, such as a living room or dining room. If you’re comparing two carpets made of the same material, a higher carpet density can indicate better durability and longevity. However, carpet density is only one of many factors that can help you determine a carpet’s quality.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

Many DIYers and pros start installing flooring in the middle of a room to ensure a balanced, symmetrical layout, especially when using tiles or planks. This process is particularly helpful in odd-shaped rooms because it allows you to create a centerline from which to work. Beginning in the center will enable you to work toward the edges so the final layout feels intentional and centered, even if the walls aren’t perfectly square.
