How can I save money on new carpet?

• <div><p>You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-buy-carpet.htm">buying carpet at certain times of year</a> when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.</p></div>

Should you replace or clean your carpet?

• <div><p>Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:</p><ul><li><p>Stains that are impossible to remove.</p></li><li><p>A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.</p></li><li><p>An increase in allergy symptoms.</p></li><li><p>The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.</p></li></ul><p>When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.</p></div>

Q: Can you make a crawl space liveable?

• <div><p>Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable. </p></div>

Q: When should I remove old carpet?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Carpeting lasts</a> between 10 and 15 years in most cases, but keep an eye out for common signs that it's time to replace it. Persistent smells despite deep cleaning, faded color, worn-down carpet padding, and general wear and tear are signs that it's time to tear it up. If you are experiencing allergy issues indoors, this could also be a sign that new flooring is the key to a fresher home.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a transition between carpet stairs and wood flooring?

• <div><p>A transition piece between carpet stairs and wood flooring isn't always necessary. A transition piece separates two types of flooring in between rooms and areas, like carpet and vinyl. Because the carpet on the stairs tucks into the seam, you can&rsquo;t see the fringes, and there is no need to hide anything. However, you can use a stair cap if your stairs have a nose.</p></div>

The installation team was very caring, polite, and professional. These guys went the extra mile by pulling vines off the old windows and pushing leaves off a small roof. That helped me at my age.
