"Gary is awesome!  Very pleasantly businesslike.  Not a lot of extra chitchat and ~ sometimes ~ that's just what a busy homeowner needs that day (I did).  Though certainly he is friendly and readily answered any questions I had.  
He took measurements on his initial visit for the free estimate.  I was impressed that while he did the measurements with the tape, he muttered aloud to himself the numbers as he went - without writing them down.  Maybe he recorded measurements later?  He is so experienced he just knows exactly what he's doing.  Told me the yardage to order and was spot on (as it later turned out).  
I had planned to order carpet from a typical big box store, but Gary mentioned another place I'd never heard of:  Contract Furnishing Mart in Tigard.  It was in the direction of the hardware store I was going to anyway, so I stopped in.  Turns out CFM is a wholesale flooring place (have cabinetry too).  They work with the installers who have accounts there.   I shopped & compared & decided I liked the quality of their carpet better - - so I appreciated his suggestion.
Even though we had a delay between lifting the old carpet & Gary installing the new, he was patient & accommodating enough to readily reschedule.  Ditto for the CFM warehouse holding our carpet roll an extra couple weeks, no charge, no problem.
Gary installed our carpet in a large room with awkward angles, and it looks terrific.  He encountered a minor problem en route and educated me about carpet weave patterns sometimes lining up 'just so' to create a thin dark or light line at the seam.  However, he is experienced enough to recognize and correct it.  We really appreciated his perfectionism and attention to small details.
We would be pleased to hire him again if we re-carpet another room, and highly recommend him!

"I bought countertops and window treatments for my business and I am thrilled. Arvids uses the highest quality products, Hunter Douglas shades and Silestone countertops in my case, and all of the guidance from Arvids to pick out the products couldn’t have gone smoother."

"Ed does an excellent job cleaning our house. We had things we didn't even realize were dirty until we saw them after Ed's initial cleaning. He now cleans our house every other week. It's a great feeling to come home after work to a clean house. He does a great job and we would highly recommend him to anyone for a project large or small. He is very conscientious, especially about our pets (two of our cats can't mix and one has a tendency to run outside, and he handles all of that). A few years ago, he did a move-out cleaning for our apartment that passed our landlord's inspection with no issues."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

Several types of flooring can be installed over existing tile, provided the current tiles are in good condition. Options include vinyl, vinyl plank, laminate, engineered wood, hardwood, carpet, and cork. Among these, various types of vinyl and engineered wood are the most common choices due to their versatility. Alternatively, you can install new tiles on top of your current ones if you like tile floors but want to update the look. Before proceeding with any new flooring, it's crucial to ensure your existing tiles are not damaged; otherwise, they will need to be removed first.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.
