Hi I’m Mariusz the owner and operator of Redesign Floors & Home LLC . We offer a high quality of workmanship. Our services are hardwood, laminate, vinyl planks ,LVT tile, refinishing and staining hardwood floors,stairs and custom flooring and Wall design Check us out on Instagram and Facebook for more videos and pictures
"This company did a wonderful job! The owner, Mariusz, was very helpful and responsive during the process. His pricing was very reasonable. His installation team worked very hard and did a wonderful job. When I bought my condo, the prior owners installed a horribly cheap floor that was also quite ugly. Thanks to ReDesign, my place was transformed and looks brighter and incredibly homey. I smile every time I look at my new floor. And his pricing was incredibly fair. One of my other quotes was twice as expensive as the one Mariusz gave me, and that company said it would take 4 workers 3 days to complete the project (my condo is on the smaller size side, and there is no way four people could have even fit in here while working at the same time). I would definitely hire ReDesign again if/when I need additional floors replaced."

Carpet padding is essential for extending your carpet’s lifespan. It acts as a protective barrier between your carpet and the subfloor, reducing friction and preventing premature wear. It also enhances underfoot comfort by absorbing impact and noise while protecting floorboards from damage. If you’re installing new carpets, investing in a quality pad improves comfort, durability, and performance.
How much carpet padding you need depends on the size of the room you're carpeting. Measure the length and width of the room and multiply those figures to get the square footage. Then, use the square footage to determine how much carpet pad you need to cover the room. It's a good idea to budget for 10% more overage than your calculations in case of mishaps during the installation.
The lifespan of carpet padding depends on the material used and the level of foot traffic it endures. Flat rubber padding can last for up to 20 years, while prime foam often needs to be replaced in less than five years. Worn padding affects your carpet’s comfort and support, so regular inspections help determine when it’s time for an upgrade.
You should replace your carpet padding when it no longer provides adequate support. Signs that it's time for a replacement include loss of springiness, visible lumps or dips, and a crinkly sound underfoot. Replacing the padding promptly preserves both comfort and the appearance of your carpet, helping to extend its lifespan and prevent premature wear.
