"Everything seemed fine until the crew arrived. They were late, but the scheduler did call about 45 minutes after the arrival time to let me know. The minute the leader stepped into my house, he began complaining that the job was not as he was told, and then began quizzing me all about the communication I had with the scheduler. I had to tell him the details given to me about the estimate. He then told me that he would have to charge extra to move some of the furniture (not what the scheduler had said). He then demanded that I show him the emails exchanged with the scheduler, as if I had been lying to them. The complaining made me so uncomfortable, that I told him to leave if he didn't feel he could do the job. He said no, that he would do it, but then went outside to call the scheduler himself. We proceeded to move most of the furniture ourselves, just to expedite the process. I then received a call from the scheduler, who hinted that I had mislead her as to how big the rooms were, although I had given her actual square footage specifications. She finally said ok, they would do the job as agreed, but that they had to do some extra space in a hallway, and had to charge an additional fee. At this point, I was stuck, as the crew had already begun working. The bottom line is that the work quality itself was good, but the level of professionalism was poor. Customers should never be pulled into internal disputes, and inadequate job scoping is not the fault of the customer."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

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 could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

What a buyer prefers usually depends on the home’s layout and which material fits the current aesthetic. The local real estate market can also dictate these desires to some extent, as do the buyer’s personal preferences. With that said, laminate can increase the resale value of a home by a tiny bit, whereas carpet does not. Hardwood increases the resale value by the highest amount.

Yes. When installed properly, the strong adhesive on carpet tiles keeps them in place while also allowing homeowners the flexibility to peel up an individual tile and replace it if they need to. It’s important to keep in mind that the adhesive on your carpet tiles may take some time to cure, so it’s best to leave them alone for a couple of days after you first install them.
