"We contracted Nei Brothers to give us an estimate of replacing the carpet in our entire house. Dennis was extremely knowledgable about his products. The level of service on our first visit convinced us that this was the company for us. <br /> The work was done in 2 phases to lessen the disruption to our special needs child. They made sure to have his bedroom completed and ready for him before he came home from school. The quality of the workmanship cannot be beat. The quality of the materials used far exceed our expectations. Because we had this done on two different days, the clean up between each phase was outstanding. Overall this company is one of the best service companies I have ever dealt with. <br /> I would and do recommend NEI BROTHERS to anyone in need of carpet! <br />"

"The entire process was seamless! Clark was a great sales associate and helped us navigate what type of flooring we wanted for our kitchen, dining and powder room. He was knowledgeable and non-pressured. Dave & Dan did a great job on the hard surfaces. Omar & team were beyond exceptional with the carpet install! We’d definitely recommend The Carpet Guys!"

"Lance is wonderful. He reached out right away after I submitted my project on Angie’s List. We set up a good time for him to inspect the job. Lance stretched 7 Year old carpet so it looks new again! The installer we used before said nothing could be done and walked away. Thanks again Lance!"

"We needed new flooring in the future nursery. The issue was getting it installed quickly, as I was due in about 6 weeks. Mike, the owner, came out right away to give a quote. He was polite and thorough in answering all my questions. I was very pleased with the quoted price as well, which included pulling up the carpet and providing the underfloor. He promised to schedule us right away once our wood was delivered, (We were providing our own flooring), and he followed through on that promise. The installation took one day and was completed 2 weeks before our little one arrived. It looks beautiful. Also, they adhered to the estimate perfectly. The only thing not yet done is the finishing piece at the top of the stairs, which I still have to order and then schedule with Nex to install."

"Marcus and his crew were prompt, polite and willing to go the extra mile to provide excellent service. They were pleasant in their manner and patiently answered any questions and addressed all concerns efficiently. The Carpet was installed in the time promised with superior workmanship by himself and his crew. In addition, their manner in getting the rooms prepared for the Carpet installation and moving furniture was professional and they replaced every item in the room as well after the Carpeting was installed and the whole job went quite smoothly. We are very pleased with the Carpeting and it looks beautiful.  Whomever hires Marcus and his crew will be very satisfied and the entire process from start to finish will be executed in a professional  manner with all the details completed as well by Maxwell Carpet Sales and Installation with reasonable and competitive pricing. <br />"

"Incredibly well! Very happy with everything: from selecting the actual flooring; to placing a special order; to the final installation. Selecting Creative Carpet was the best choice we could've made, and second only to the floor we had installed. It's beautiful!!! :)"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Cragin, IL

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.
