Get matched with top carpet installers in Bellevue, NE

"<p>The installation crew arrived on time and did an outstanding job. They carefully moved our heaviest furniture, took up the old carpet and pad, installed the new carpet, moved the heavy furniture back, and cleaned and vacuumed. They did it all in 4.5 hours one morning with no breaks. They were a very friendly and efficient crew. And the new SmartStrand carpeting is absolutely beautiful to look at and to walk on.</p> <p>After the crew left we got out our 9 year old Oreck to verify its ability to vacuum and discovered that we had a serious problem – our Oreck would hardly move across the carpet. Since the problem seemed to be related to the silk fibers in this new type of carpet, and since our Oreck was 9 years old, we decided to go shopping for a new vacuum cleaner designed to operate on SmartStrand carpeting. We took a large piece of the carpeting to Sears and the vacuum cleaner salesperson tried several different brands and models including Hoover, Dyson, Samsung, Sharp, and Kenmore, as well as upright and canister models. All of them did the same thing – they were impossible to very difficult to push across the carpet. The salesperson concluded that none of his cleaners were compatible with this carpet, and that the carpet would actually be damaged by some of them.</p> <p>So we went back to Kellys Carpet and talked to Rick and asked to see what kind of vacuum cleaners they used to clean their carpets. It turns out that they use an Oreck as he had originally told us, but it was an Oreck Magnesium. He showed it to us and demonstrated it on SmartStrand carpet. It worked just fine. It is a much newer Oreck model than our old one, and was specifically designed for these newer carpet fibers.</p> <p>We then went to the local Oreck store and found the same Oreck Magnesium model that Rick demonstrated for us. We brought our carpet sample into the store, and the store salesman demonstrated the Oreck’s ability to vacuum our sample. He told us the Magnesium was specifically designed to handle the silk fibers in these newer carpets. So we bought the Magnesium, brought it home and fired it up, and it does the job very nicely and gently. It works best on low speed.</p> <p>The moral of this story is that you should not assume your current household vacuum cleaner will operate properly on whatever carpet you are considering buying unless the carpet you are buying is the same type of carpet that you will be replacing. If you are not sure, then since the carpet salesperson can’t be expected to know which vacuum cleaners work with which carpeting types, before you buy:</p> <ol> <li> <p>(1), Always ask the carpet salesperson what kind of vacuum cleaner the store uses on the carpet you are considering and have him/her demonstrate it, and/or</p> </li> <li> <p>(2) Always take a good sized sample of the target carpet home and test your vacuum cleaner on it, and/or</p> </li> <li> <p>(3) If you feel a need to replace your vacuum cleaner, always take a large sample of the carpet to the vacuum cleaner store and test it there. </p> </li> </ol> <p>Regarding Karastan SmartStrand, there may be other vacuum cleaners in the marketplace in addition to the Oreck Magnesium that handle this carpeting nicely, but you need to test them before you buy the carpeting. , </p> <br />"

"Curtis was easy to schedule. He arrived promptly and did a fantastic job with the carpets. He has follow-up call back for his clients, and we will definitely have him do the carpets again."

"We had a carpet cleaning done prior to moving into our house. Previous owners had pets. He was up front about which stains had a good chance of coming out and which stains were likely to remain but tried hard to get rid of them all. The price was fair and the service was on time and efficient. Plan to use again."

"Stuart, the installer, is the best you will ever have. He is thorough, conscientious, customer-focused and all quality. He makes the experience even better than it already is with Lowe's and their selection and service. <br />"

"Big Red was very reasonable on their prices compared to other businesses. They did an exceptional job and I have had no problems since. One of things I liked best was they weren't pushy about cleaning the carpet. I went ahead and had them clean 3 rooms and was very happy that I did. The price was really reasonable as well."

"They sent some really good guys out to do the floor for us. They left most of the old flooring in place because there was only one layer there. They tore the covering around the edges out real nice and did a great job with the installation, so we were really pleased with them."
