"I cannot say enough great things about Chris and the A Step Ahead Flooring team! From start to finish, the communication was outstanding. Chris kept me updated every step of the way and made the entire process seamless. Not only did they finish the project a full day ahead of schedule, but they went above and beyond to deliver exceptional service. The floors look absolutely stunning—better than I could have imagined. It’s clear that Chris and his team take immense pride in their work, and it shows in the incredible results. One detail that really stood out was how thoughtful Chris was when it snowed during the project, he shoveled some of my driveway! This level of care and consideration is rare to find. If you’re looking for a flooring team that delivers top-notch quality, unparalleled professionalism, and a personal touch, look no further than A Step Ahead Flooring. I highly recommend them!"

Plan on spending $1,500 to $5,500 to carpet three average-size bedrooms, which average 500 square feet. Material, pad quality, and labor set the final price. Premium fibers and thicker underlayment push the job toward the high end, while a durable budget line keeps it affordable. Collect at least three quotes from licensed installers to see where your project will land.
Most carpet lasts five to 20 years with the right care and maintenance. Higher-quality fibers and light traffic keep it closer to the 20-year mark, while heavy foot traffic, pets, or kids shorten its life. Regular vacuuming and periodic deep cleaning help the pile spring back and delay replacement. Work with your carpet installation pro to select a carpet type that best suits your needs to maximize its lifespan.
On average, professional carpet cleaning costs $120 to $240. Routine vacuuming, steam or dry cleaning, and quick spot treatment keep fibers fresh and allergens low. If holes, burns, or tears appear, repair costs increase. Staying on top of maintenance extends your carpet’s life and helps you avoid premature replacement or repairs.
