"I have hired TBS Maintenance for over 25 years. Originally, I used the company to clean the white carpets and rugs in our 4,000-square-foot home. Their work was so outstanding that in 2009, I began hiring them annually to clean my business office as well. Our 2,000-square-foot office saw constant foot traffic from general and skilled laborers—many of whom came straight from construction sites. Despite the heavy wear on the carpets, stairs, and upholstered chairs, TBS consistently made everything look brand new. TBS is incredibly proficient and knowledgeable about all things related to carpets and materials. They provide honest assessments up front. Carpets were never oversaturated, always dried in a reasonable time, and furniture that couldn’t be moved was handled with care. Stan Brown was present at every job, either working hands-on or supervising his team. He’s punctual, professional, and always honored his quotes. I wholeheartedly recommend TBS Maintenance."

Customers say: Quick response

"It was very easy to set up a day and time. They came home in 2 days after my call. They repair the space that I asked and for that, they need it some carpet that I had in a walking closet. They took that out, repaired it, and he offer me for free a piece that match good in the closet. They were fast, easy and very convenient in price. He told me that he wants to see the clients happy, so he offers me lifetime warranty."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.

Installing carpet over carpet may negatively impact the resale value of your home. While it offers a quick fix, potential buyers may view it as a temporary solution rather than a long-term investment in quality flooring. Properly installed and maintained flooring adds value to a home, so removing the existing carpet and installing new flooring may be a better option to attract prospective buyers and maximize resale value.

There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.

Decent carpet will last around 10 years on stairs. Some less durable carpets, like polyester, will only last five years on stairs. The ideal carpet, like wool or nylon, can last about 15 to 25 years. You’ll know when to replace it when it starts wearing down. You may have to replace it sooner if it's stained, whether due to water damage or pets.

Acclimating laminate flooring cannot be rushed. Laminate flooring needs at least 48 hours to acclimate properly to its new environment, and being patient during this time can make installation go smoother because you will not be dealing with boards that have expanded or contracted during the shipping process. You will also be less likely to damage the boards during installation.
