"The price was completely out of our budget -- despite what we stated we were able to pay. Additionally, we received 3 other estimates that were 40% cheaper that what Empire could offer AND included materials to cover our problematic stairs -- which Empire suggested staining to match the laminate."

Small jobs welcome

Hey there! My name is Emily Jenniges and I am a small business owner doing cleaning, organizing, and interior decorating. I’ve been in business for over a year now and I’ve always wanted to especially work with airbnbs. I love setting up and refreshing homes for guests, that’s why I’d be perfect to help you! The reason I run a SMALL business is because I don’t believe in charging outrageous prices and having no personality when it comes to what I do for a career. I like to offer fair pricing that helps the both of us and also work great under pressure- so if it’s a last minute thing and I have to move around some clients, I’m totally okay with that! I love what I do and I offer so many things besides cleaning. If you’d like to redecorate your Airbnb, or you need ideas for how to make it a cool space, I’m absolutely your girl! For bigger cleans like this, my schedule usually operates on the weekends, but again, if you are in need of someone in a hurry, I make that work as well!

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

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. 

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

Carpet installers use furniture sliders or blankets to protect your furniture during the installation process. They handle each piece with care to minimize the risk of damage. Additionally, they may employ techniques such as lifting and shifting furniture rather than dragging it across the floor to prevent scratches or other marks. If you have particularly delicate or heavy items that need to be moved, discuss special handling with the installers beforehand.

If you want your carpet to last as long as possible, then yes, you need to install carpet padding. Carpet padding creates a layer of protection between the back of your carpet and the floor beneath it, which decreases friction and reduces wear and tear. Aside from that, carpet padding also helps absorb noise and makes your carpet feel more comfortable underfoot.

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.
