"The install went very smoothly. I cleaned out one bedroom myself including pulling up the carpet and pad. This saved me a little money. The other bedroom and closet had a lot more heavy stuff. So, I let Pferrman do it for me. Using very round numbers, it was about $100 per room to have them move the furniture, remove the carpet and pad and dispose of it. The price for the berber was great. I'm sure there is higher quality berber, but not at this price. The workers were very professional and hard working. I didn't ask much of anything of them that was out of the ordinary. They did a great job working around an odd piece of baseboard. -- That's a long story -- But the relevant point to take is that they installed carpet around it and it now blends in with the room perfectly.

"Excel provided excellent service from promptly contacting me to schedule an estimate after a message from Angie's so list was sent, to being on time to do the job to the job itself.  Greg explained why the carpet had stretched the way it did so soon after it was installed.  I waited almost four years to have the carpet stretched after it began to buckle.  After the service was provided you can't tell there was ever a problem.  I would definitely recommend Excel Carpet Services.

"I was trying to cram a carpet cleaning session in before hosting a Christmas party. I reached out on a Monday for service that week. They apologized but were not able to get me on the calendar. They were very responsive and I did not have to wait long to hear back which was great considering I was on a time crunch. I will reach out to them in the future. Thanks!"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Covington, KY

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.
