Does a room have to be empty to restretch the carpet?

• <div><p>Your room doesn’t need to be completely empty to restretch a carpet, but you’ll need enough space that you can move around furniture to access the wrinkled areas and the wall where you’re reattaching the carpet. A contractor will move your furniture out of the way before they start the job, but you can save money by moving your furniture before they arrive.</p></div>

Q: Is Pergo flooring waterproof?

• <div><p>Pergo flooring is waterproof, right down to the bevels. The company claims that the material has a 100% watertight surface. Of course, this depends on how expertly the flooring was installed, so make sure to do some research before choosing an installation pro.</p></div>

Q: Is it more cost effective to lay carpet or carpet tiles?

• <div><p>Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.</p></div>

Q: Do I have to convert feet to inches when I calculate square feet?

• <div><p>For rooms with an even number of feet (10 x 12, for example), you can technically just multiply them together to get the number of square feet in the room (10 feet x 12 feet = 120 sq. ft.). For irregularly shaped rooms or areas that aren&rsquo;t even square feet, converting to inches will be your best bet for an accurate measurement.</p></div>

Q: When should I replace my carpet instead?

• <div><p>If you have a dark carpet and are going for a lighter look, you should replace it, rather than dyeing, since you can only go darker with dye. If your stains are too heavy to mask with carpet dye or the carpet is more than 10 years old, you should also consider replacing it.</p></div>

Do not work with LESA. I am the first to write a positive review and try my best to avoid negative, but LESA's negligence has cost my family $26,000 in unexpected repairs after our home purchase. Choose a different inspector. First, our entire basement ceiling/floor system was contaminated...

RUN the other way! Mitch was originally hired for various home repairs and quoted me $1625. Every time he came it turned into something different and a bigger job that needed more money up front. When he put in an outside spigot, he said I needed a new hot water heater and I should pay up front,...
