Is it cheaper to lay carpet or carpet tiles?

• <div><p>Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">cost of carpet installation</a> is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too. </p></div>

Q: How can you tell if carpet padding is bad?

• <div><p>Most people realize it is time to replace the padding when the carpet loses springiness or feels thin and unsupportive. Other telltale signs are lumps or dips in the carpet that could look unattractive or cause tripping hazards. Similarly, if your carpet is making a crinkly sound or starting to wear out prematurely, you might need to replace your padding.</p></div>

Q: How do you fix carpet that is matted down?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fix-carpet-matting.htm">best way to fix carpet matting</a> is to start by vacuuming thoroughly in multiple directions to lift the flattened fibers. For more stubborn spots, apply moisture with an ice cube or steam, then fluff the carpet using a spoon, comb, or carpet brush. A blow dryer or warm iron over a damp towel can also help restore the carpet&rsquo;s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory. </p></div>

Q: What's the difference between standard and moisture barrier padding?

• <div><p>Standard padding works like a sponge. It absorbs liquid, soaking up every drop of moisture that hits it. Moisture barrier padding does the opposite because it has a waterproof coating made of plastic film, rubber, or treated foam. It doesn&rsquo;t absorb spills and keeps them on the surface instead, so you can clean them up before they damage your subfloor. </p></div>

Q: What is the best solvent for removing carpet glue?

• <div><p>The best solvent for removing carpet glue depends on its chemical composition. Most carpet glue reacts well to a solvent made from orange oil. Use mineral spirits to remove tar-based glue, which has a darker, brownish tint. Methylene chloride paint stripper and lacquer thinner should also work, but beware of the nasty and dangerous fumes.</p></div>

It went well and quickly. The day before we emptied the rooms. That took us serious time and effort! He came in and did the cleaning work in roughly an hour. The cleaning really improved the look of the carpets.

Paul was prompt. He was very careful to not soil our beige carpet in taking out the old tank and putting in the new. He had to go under our house to add the drainage line.
