"William a true professional. Compassionate knowledgeable and a fantastic job. I have already given his name to another. Very refreshing to know that there is still a company that still does things the old fashioned way.(the right way) If you’re reading this review, don’t look any further. This is the guy Thank you once again William. Ken"

"Dan was awesome ð working on our carpet install. I am a bit surprise that he was a one man show since moving carpet and furniture is hard for one person. We did make it a team effort helping him with moving furniture. Floorcoverings NW was a great in getting our carpet installed in a timely manner. Thank you."

"Jeff and his crew always do a great job ! They have installed all our floor coverings (carpet, hardwood, and linoleum) and we are always super happy. We’ve worked with this company on many different projects over the last 15 years and we won’t go anywhere else ! Highly recommend !"

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

When choosing whether to install carpet in your home, consider the pros and cons of this change:

Pros

  • More affordable than laminate flooring

  • Gives the room a warmer feel

  • Softer on feet

  • Wide variety of textures and colors

  • Hides dirt easily

  • Faster and easier to install

Cons

  • Shows wear and tear more quickly than laminate flooring

  • Shows stains

  • Soaks up liquids

  • May not work well in some areas, such as a bathroom

  • Less durable than laminate flooring

  • Susceptible to water damage, mold, and mildew

Carpet installation typically starts with removing the old flooring, preparing the subfloor, laying underpadding for cushioning, and securing the new carpet with tack strips, making precise cuts to fit room dimensions.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.

Carpeting has a few benefits on stairs in addition to being a cost-effective floor covering. It absorbs sound, dampening footsteps. It also provides additional traction, which is especially important if you install linoleum floors, epoxy flooring, or any other floor covering that can become slippery if you’re wearing socks. Therefore, carpets can help prevent slips. 

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.
