WESTEN'S CARPET

Serving Alto, MI and surrounding areas

"My son and a couple of his friends did the work, but we bought the flooring and some wonderful stuff from Westen's Carpet. Mr. Jeff Westen is the owner of Westen's Carpet. He's done other flooring replacement for us like carpeting and other things and he's very accommodating and does a wonderful job. He was here a couple of times to give us advice and help us out. We've dealt with him before. He is very honest and he would lead us in the right direction. We were originally looking at a different brand of laminates and explained to us that by spending a little bit more we could really up the quality of the product that we were getting. If he can't help us out, he would direct us to somebody who can. We had several estimates and he was quite a bit below in the price that we were getting. He is very reasonable. The quality of the flooring is beautiful and when he delivered the stuff one of the guy thought it was hardwood. He is very responsive. He gives his cell phone number and calls us back immediately. He is extremely professional. The only thing is that he is not electronic and doesn't do e-mail or websites and any other stuff. It's strictly personal. We call him, go there and talk to him and he gets back to us which we really like, but some people who depend so much on their computers may find it difficult to deal with him."

"Carpet looked great right after cleaning, however, several spots re-appeared a few days later.  They came back and bleached the spots which did remove most of them, but a couple remained.  They also cleaned our tile floor and that came out just great! <br />"

"We looked at Vinyl sheet flooring, but it was too expensive. We settled on carpet again. Sales was fine, went smooth. They had a great selection. Access to their large selection of remnants made for a good experience selecting the carpet. <br /> Installation scheduling went well. Our calendars are a bit tight, so finding times went OK. We had to schedule a couple of weeks out. <br /> Installation went well, they were on time and professional. <br /> The carpet looks nice, I really can't fully rate the install at an A. Nothing is bad enough that I would have the installers back out, but I'm not as blown away as I hoped to be. The edges of the carpet at the baseboards are not as smooth as I would like, it looks a bit ragged. Also I can see the seams faintly in some sections of the carpet. Not glaringly, but just enough that I know they are there. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Our salesperson, Kristie was a delight to work with. She is a professionally trained interior designer, which proved to be a tremendous asset when making our choices--taking our tastes into account, while keeping the big picture in mind. The installers, Dave (carpet) and Drew (hardwood) were top notch, and very neat--taking time to clean up after the job was done. We were especially impressed with Drew--He was very personable, yet efficient--with attention to detail."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Alto, MI

Carpet rolls come in standard widths of 12 and 15 feet. Less commonly, you might find a roll 13.5 feet wide. There are no standard roll lengths, but they’ll have enough to cover almost any home.

You’ll need equal amounts of carpet padding and carpet. Carpet padding costs $200 to $500 for the average room. However, the padding is trimmed a couple of inches away from the wall on all sides to make room for tack strips. Most residential installs have padding, and professionals include this in their bids.

Often, the best carpet for basements doesn’t include a pad. You’ll find this mainly in humid areas or places with a high-water table.

One linear foot of carpet or other material is simply one foot measured in a straight line. You typically aren’t going to measure carpet this way. It’s quoted in square feet or square yards.

There are nine square feet in one square yard of carpet.

The amount of carpet you need to cover two rooms varies depending on the room size and configuration. Measure the floor space. Multiply width times length. Do this for both rooms and add the numbers together.

You’ll need between 80 and 110 square feet for 13 stairs. For unique stairwells, you might need more.

Measure indoor/outdoor carpet like you would any other area, taking the width times the length. For patios, make sure to add a couple extra inches to wrap around the edges. Indoor-outdoor carpets cost an average of $3.50 per square foot.

You’ll need enough carpet to cover the entire area of damage to avoid seams. For example, if you have a 4-inch tear in the middle of a hallway, you’ll want enough carpet to stretch from door to door or the next available seam. Depending on the type of carpet you have, you might be able to get a professional to do an invisible seam repair.

One square foot of carpet is one foot long by one foot wide.
