"Very professional from the word "hello" when I called for an estimate. <br /> He set an appointment for the very next business day. <br /> He was punctual, courteous and respectful! <br /> We were very satisfied with the price he set, and with the quality of his work. <br /> Ken Richburg is the only person I'll ever have back to clean our carpet. <br />"

"Arrived at the time that was scheduled and came in to look at the areas to be carpeted. Got to work right away. Removed old carpet and installed the new carpet. Except for the noise (very little) of the actual installation they hardly said anything, worked very quietly. Both were very friendly. They are very good at what they do. <br />"

"First, the shopping experience was great.  Steve did a fine job of providing information & prices.  I gave an A for the price, but I haven't done any comparison shopping.  I chose a higher end Karastan carpet.  My carpet came in within a week.  <br /> The installer, Bret, and his helper were top notch.  They arrived on time and were very professional.  The install took only 4 hours, including furniture removal and replacement.  They even helped me put the bedskirts back on! <br /> The install itself is perfect.  I have several closet organizers that were installed over the old carpet.  I thought it was going to be a problem, but it wasn't for these guys.  Good experience. <br />"

"Back in July, an entire glass of orange gatorade was spilled on our 10 x 14, light gray, wool rug.  We attempted to blot and quickly remove the stain using vinegar and club soda, but we had no luck.  We had our rug professional cleaned, and the nasty orange stain persisted.  At this point, I began looking into alternatives to having the rug repaired rather than just live with this 1.5' x 1.5' stain on the rug (i.e., hiding it under furniture).  This is when I stumbled across Color Your Carpet.  Being that there wasn't a branch located near where we lived, I contacted the national number.  I completed the request form and sent pictures, but after this, I didn't hear anything back. <br /> <br /> After a few months, I got desperate and started dialing actual Color Your Carpet branches to see what was going on.  This is when I called Rich (FL office), and he explained that since we were out of area that typically a traveling technician would take care of us; however, he was willing to help us with our rug debacle.  We first had contact w/ Rich the beginning of December.  We e-mailed him photos, and he told us a good time to ship him our rug (availability).  We were a bit hesitant to ship our 10 x 14 wool rug, but he assured us that many customers do this, and he even gave us instructions on how to fold the rug.  He also asked us to include a color sample of what color we'd like the rug dyed.  He even gave us advice on how to secure the best pricing when shipping the rug (You pay for shipping there and back.). <br /> <br /> We shipped our rug the week after Christmas.  Rich promptly notified us when he received the rug.  He also sent us pictures when he completed the rug for our approval.  He had a bit of trouble with the stained part of the rug, and he even called to tell us that he had a setback and would need to dye the rug a bit darker to deal w/ that pesky orange gatorade stain.  About a week later (Jan 20th), our rug was delivered.  Rich did an excellent job removing any traces of the orange gatorade incident.  Gatorade is no longer allowed in the living room, so we hope to not use Rich's services on this rug anymore.  However, if we ever had any future stains with our rugs that cannot be cleaned, we wouldn't hesitate to contact Rich to take care of us."

"I bought a dishwasher, an installation agreement, and a 5-year warranty. The whole process was easy. Everything was on sale. The dishwasher, the 5-year warranty, and the installation were on sale. I dealt with a very young man and he was very well informed, and very, very helpful. I had all the time with him that I needed. He answered all  my questions about several other appliances, and showed me some options for other appliances because I was considering replacing more than one. It was a pleasant experience. I have no complaints. I got my whole package. I had the thing delivered, installed, and the old one hauled away. I got my warranty and everything included for the price I would have paid for the dishwasher alone had I bought it at any other time. Lowe's had the product that I was looking for whereas Home Depot did not, that was why I switched stores."

"Our purple carpet had about 100 urine stains from previous dogs and our own. The specialist, Robert, matched to color and treated every spot. If we didn't know where they were, we'd never know they spots had been there. Perfect job!"

"'We selected the carpet from Lowe's and agreed upon the price for the carpet installation. They ordered the carpet and upon arrival it was installed beautifully by the Lowe's people. Unfortunately there was a problem with the carpet. Lowes worked diligently with us and the manufacturer to replace the carpet. The charges we incurred for the replacement were for the installation only which we considered to be reasonable. Lowes couldn't have worked with us any better than they did. We would have no hesitation to purchase carpeting from Lowe's again."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Axis, AL

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.
