"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

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.

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.

Yes, you can put carpet directly on concrete. However, you need to take certain precautions to ensure the success of the carpet installation. For example, you’ll need to choose a synthetic carpet pad to provide insulation and cushioning and a vapor barrier to prevent moisture from seeping into the carpet.

The costs range from $3 to $10 per square foot, depending on the carpet type, labor, and subfloor preparation.

When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines. 

Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
