"Clawes Carpet replaced the flooring on both my entry way, main level, basement and the stairs which connect these levels in my townhouse. I cannot say enough positive thoughts about this company, its administrative staff, installers and the whole process from start to finish has been smooth and well organized (even when I requested to change the install date :)). They are accommodating and the final result is outstanding! I love the final results, and receive lots of compliments. This has been the best and most pleasant experience! I would and have recommended this company over and over."

"The carpets look great! When they returned them they included the pad I asked for a quote on. A simple misunderstanding. I called and they arranged to come pick it up and gave me a full refund including state tax. Pleasant to speak with and a job well done."

"The selection of carpets (at the store location in Fairfax) was excellent. No hard sell just plenty of knowledgeable answers to questions posed. The measuring and installation were done in a very reasonable amount of time. Workmanship excellent. Don't go anywhere else."

"The rugs were returned in like new condition looking the way they appeared when we bought them. all strains were gone or unnoticeable. they were returned within a reasonable amount of time despite an intervening flood that virtually destroyed downtown Ellicott City, damaged their store, and still prevents them opening it even today. They arranged an alternative pick up location. They were friendly, informative, courteous and helpful throughout the transaction despite extremely difficult circumstances. We will definitely be returning customers. Some additional notes: Deep cleaning was definitely worth the relatively small added cost. Bringing and picking up the carpets ourselves (they told us how to fold them so both fit in the back seat of our car was significantly cheaper than having the rugs picked up and delivered. Once before they replaced worn tassels on the oriental rug; they were indistinguishable from the original ones at the time we bought the rug.)"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Annandale, VA

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.
