We are family owned and operated and have been serving Charleston for 60 years. We have our own installers who average 31 years experience. We sell and install carpet, hardwood, ceramic, porcelain, vinyl tile and more.

"I ordered $7,000 worth of hardwood floors for a rehab that my company was doing. When the wood came in, it was defective (holes, rough spots and cracks). I immediately notified Andrews and the owners were VERY difficult. They came to the house to view the wood, they agreed to take it back. At first she wanted to charge me a 20% restocking fee and then stated that she did not have the money to refund me. I agreed to wait until 1/15 (3 weeks) for my money in exchange of the delivery fee being waived. On 1/11 I received a receipt where they had refunded the amount owed -$600. She added a credit card swipe fee ($460) and a deliver fee ($139 which we agreed would be waived since she didn't have the money to pay me immediately). In all, they refused to refund $600 of my money. I guess I was supposed to pay them for selling me defective wood. I am having to sue them to get the remainder of my money."

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can install carpet without padding. While skipping the padding can help you save on the project, it will make the carpet less comfortable and show uneven spots or imperfections in the subfloor. Because carpet padding protects the back of the carpet from wear, a carpet without padding can wear out faster than one with it. Carpet padding also cuts down on noise, so forgoing it can affect the acoustics in the room.

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.

You may get better coverage painting your baseboards if you do so before carpet is installed. The best course of action may be to attempt to paint them between having the old floor removed and the new floor laid, though this will render the room unusable for a period of time and may make the entire project a bit slower overall.

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.

To prevent your dining room carpet from slipping, consider using rug pads or grippers underneath to provide traction and stability. Additionally, ensure the carpet is properly sized and secured to the floor to minimize movement. Regularly check and readjust the rug to maintain its position and safety under your dining room table.
