Q: What is the best time of year to install carpet?

• <div><p>Spring and fall are the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-buy-carpet.htm">best seasons for installing carpet</a>. Both seasons benefit from moderate temperatures and low humidity levels, which can help the carpet acclimate to the room and settle properly once installed. However, installing carpet during the winter months could result in lower costs, as demand for this service is low. </p></div>

Q: Can you negotiate on carpet prices?

• <div><p>Yes, you can negotiate the purchase price of new carpet. You may also be able to negotiate installation costs or other fees in addition to the per-foot pricing of the carpet itself. You may have better luck negotiating with an independent retailer (as opposed to a big-box store), as they may have more discretion in pricing, but it&rsquo;s always worth asking. </p></div>

Q: What is carpet density?

• <div><p>Carpet density refers to how closely together the fibers of a carpet are stitched into the carpet backing, with values ranging from 1,000 to 7,000. A carpet density value of 3,000 or higher is considered best for most homes, especially in high-traffic areas, such as a living room or dining room. If you&rsquo;re comparing two carpets made of the same material, a higher carpet density can indicate better durability and longevity. However, carpet density is only one of many factors that can help you determine a carpet&rsquo;s quality.</p></div>

Q: Is it safer to have carpeted stairs compared to hard surfaces like wood?

• <div><p>Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction and friction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls. Additionally, if a fall does occur, carpet offers more cushioning, which can lessen the severity of an injury. While hard surfaces can look great, they are often more slippery. However, it's worth noting that some carpets, especially if they are new, dirty, or have a slick texture, can also pose a slipping hazard. To improve safety on any type of stair surface, you can add traction treads to increase grip.</p></div>

The system was shipped late and did not arrive until after I had left town. This is leaving my house unmonitored for two months until I return. I called Frontpoint and all they offered to do was extend my contract for two months and credit me for my first two months of bills, after I install...

"Sentri Homes provided the most professional flooring service I’ve ever had. The LVP installation turned out absolutely beautiful, and I was amazed at how quickly everything was completed without sacrificing quality. The crew was fast, accurate, and extremely detail-oriented from start to finish. Everything was installed cleanly, precisely, and with real craftsmanship. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and far beyond what I expected. I would absolutely recommend Sentri Homes to anyone needing flooring installed."

"We have a 15 year old tankless water heater which heats water for our shower, dishwasher etc. in addition it supplies hot water for our radiant floor heat for the entire home. It started making a whistling sound. We have never done any maintenance on it. He said it needed flushing and it had no way to be done. He went to work on it and added several additional plumbing lines and shutoffs until it was flushable. After flushing out the old fluid and adding new the whistling stopped and I can now have it checked annually with flushing as needed. Would highly recommend Alex"
