"We went in not knowing what we wanted. Steve was very helpful with product choices. He came out to measure and made recommendations. He gave us an estimate and when we weren't quite ready to fund the project he said he would keep our information. Sure enough 1 year later we contacted him and he still had our original estimate with all of the products we wanted. Once the project was started, Dimitri and his son were amazing and put in very long days until the job was done. They were very meticulous and did an outstanding job. We will definitely go back for our next flooring project."

"The estimator took about twenty minutes to decide the cost.  He used a laser measure, so it didn't take long.  He was professional.  He told me where to go on the internet to select the linoleum that I wanted.  My kitchen is a "L" shape.  I don't like that I have to pay for the extra linoleum that gets cut off for the "L"."

"Phi did a great job installing the laminate flooring on our rental property.  He is very professional and responsive.  He gave us a great deal.  He not only included the flooring, but also baseboards and hauled away the old carpet.  He also repaired holes in the drywall.  Phil is very punctual and goes right to work.  The floors look amazing!  I will use him again for any flooring project I have including my own house. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Randy and his sons showed up on the first day and got straight to work. They were all extremely courteous and informative throughout the whole process. Randy was able to remove all carpet and install the laminate in ~1200 sqft in 2 days and left the house clean and mopped after the laminate installation was complete. I am not familiar with the laminate installation process and options but Randy was able to recommend some options and it was extremely helpful. Randy was very attentive to detail which can be clearly seen in the work towards the end of the baseboards. You can tell that he has extensive experience with laminate. We love the way the laminate looks and feels. I will definitely recommend Randy to my family."

"Second time I've used Ralph Opfer Floors and I highly recommend them. The selection is extensive without being overwhelming and the customer service saved me a lot of time by listening to what my job entailed and helping me narrow my options. The installation went without a hitch and I couldn't have been more pleased overall. I recommend them to my clients who are looking for a flooring contractor. Mary Nesel/Lyon Real Estate"

"We have used this company several times in the past. Six months ago or so, I scheduled another cleaning. Well, the carpet cleaning itself was great. The carpet cleaned up beautifully. The rep was polite and explained the process. However, it was the closing that went a little south. The rep took my personal check in payment, came back a few minutes later stated that he had lost it. Something about a clipboard flying off the truck while turning a corner. He asked that I write another check. My husband asked about bank fees to put a stop payment on the lost check. The reply was that the company would probably take that amount off the next cleaning. (was he authorized to say that?!) So, I write another check. A few minutes later he comes back with both of my checks stating that he had found the original check and came back to return the second one. Sorry, CleanMax, but this was too much."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Auburn, CA

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.
