"I highly recommend Valley. The service, communications, and personal care provided was outstanding throughout. Glenn provided exceptional care and made us feel like our satisfaction was the top priority. Our carpet arrived with a defect, at no fault of Valley, and he went to great lengths to make sure the situation was rectified quickly and effectively, and that in the end, we were very happy. If you are looking for old school customer service, I highly recommend Valley. We love our new carpet, and will undoubtly use Valley next time. A+"

"I was able to schedule cleaning the same week I called. They did the job in the expected amount of time. They were able to remove a number of unsightly spots on the rug. They did a very good cleaning job and the carpet dried in a reasonable time period for a maritime climate."

"They were great. Ed from Allied was able to come that day to provide an estimate, which I was very happy with. He was able to send the installer 2 days later (my requested date). The installer, Augie, called me to tell me when he would arrive, and came when expected. He was very friendly and professional. I am very pleased with the results. You can hardly see the line where I had to cut the carpet. Easy, affordable, reliable, and great work. The way things should be."

"I called Bob in to give me an estimate to replace the carpeting in 2 bedrooms of a condo. Since I live out of town and was there for the day Bob was very accommodating and worked his schedule to meet with me . With samples in hand, the entire process of selection and pricing was finished within a half hour. Since the carpet I chose was in stock, the job was finished within a few days and looks great! I'm very happy with the entire project and would recommend Bob's Carpet Service. Great pricing, Great service..Thanks Bob!!! <br />"

"I am so glad I went to Bayville Carpet - Karen and her husband Jim were great! They gave us a quality product at a good price and it only took 5 days from the time we ordered the carpet until it was installed in my home. We had no flooring in our home and needed to get it installed in order to get a Certificate of Occupancy. They were aware of our situation and made us a priority - what a great company and friendly people! I will definitely use their services again and highly recommend them. <br />"

"Walter and I discussed the job a few times on the phone and then arranged an appointment for Walter to do the job. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Walter arrived (with a helper) exactly as scheduled and completed the job in a about 2 hours. Walter did most of the work by himself and I was very pleased with his work. I no longer have to look at and walk on a lumpy carpet. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Cedar Knolls, NJ

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.
