"Outstanding quality and workmanship! <br /> This surpassed our expectations on our new shower.  Work was completed in a timely manner as promised. <br /> Brad was excellent on helping and guiding us on how to go about getting our old built-in tub removed, and designing a custom handicap accessible walk-in shower.  Very ,very knowledgeable on all aspects of bath installs above and beyond just tile and flooring.  He answered all our questions and e-mails promptly, and always kept us up to date as to the progress in conjunction working with the contractor and plumber.  <br /> Highly recommended!  <br />"

"A couple days later the estimate arrived by email. I liked the promptness but the written estimate provided us indicated an installed price of approximately $1,200/window or approximately double what I was expecting based from my visit to the store. Also provided was a Jeld-Wen vinyl window price of approximately $600 installed should I want to go more "economical". No storm door estimate was provided. Overall, nice guys so I'll give them an overall fair grade, but I was naturally disappointed in the price guesstimating/estimating so I can't grade any higher. I will check with some other contractors before making a decision."

"Happy they were able to fit me into their schedule relatively quickly. They explained everything, were on time, cleaned-up afterward. I was not able to do comparison pricing. I was not sure how long my malfunctioning pump would continue to work. I selected them based on good reviews. I may have been able to save some money with someone else, but I do not feel like the price was too high. You get what you pay for. I’m very happy with what they did."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Balsam Lake, WI

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.
