"Empire came out on 10/18/24 to give me a quote to replace the ceramic tile in my master bath. The salesman's name was Mason. While he was there, he quoted $2,700 but applied a 5% discount because I'm a veteran. Today is 10/31/24 and I have yet to have the quote emailed to me. I tried calling Mason several times but he never answered the call. I texted Mason several times and he still hasn't emailed me the quote. I'd been on the phone several times with their corporate customer service and they said they submitted a ticket to the local store asking them to call me. They also told me after dialing the national phone number, and you selected option 0, the phone would be routed to the local store. I tried this several times and never could anyone to answer the phone. So here it is 10/31/24 and still no quote. I give up!"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Cookeville, TN

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.
