"I hired Dustin to install tile in a room after my dog destroyed the carpet. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I will be hiring him again when I replace the rest of my carpet with vinyl."
"Tobias and Don restretched my fairly new carpet. Three years previous install by Empire, carpet rolled in every room. It was a $10,000. Flooring job but Empire would not stand behind install. They said no install warranty after 1 yr. Tobias and Don came and gave me a bid the job. They stayed in communication with us. They were on time and friendly. Job looks good. I would hire them again."

"They were great to work with. Really helped with picking out the best carpet for our home. The installers were professional and easy to work with as well! I would highly recommend TCB carpets! Will definitely will use them again in the future!"
"The first carpet install had problems......carpet tight weave and pad was ultra thick. I took photos...they booked a day. I got a plush carpet with the plush pad. Amazing...."
"Great. We went through the Costco program and that is how we found Haight Carpet. We had several companies provide bids for us and theirs was very competitive. We also loved working with their sales person Mark. he was so helpful and guided us through the process and acknowledging our needs to give us the best product that would work for our family and lifestyle. The installer Alexi was fast and really good at what he does. Would highly recommend them over and over. They are now installing the backsplash in our kitchen next week. They are great and easy to work with."
Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts
In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.
In order to avoid long-lasting waves, indents, or sticking, it’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after fresh carpet is laid to put weighty furniture on top of it. However, you can begin walking on your new carpet right after it’s installed, and doing so can actually help it adhere to the floor better.
DIY is possible for small areas. Professional installation ensures proper stretching and a polished finish.
Choosing the right carpet involves assessing room usage, desired comfort levels, durability requirements, and stylistic preferences. Carpet fiber types and density should also be considered during the decision-making process.
Carpet is an effective natural insulator, so it will make a room slightly warmer than laminate. The material’s insulating properties also make carpeted rooms more efficient for temperature regulation.
