"This company knows what it’s doing. I called Mighty Clean and Linda provided estimate, arranged date. Kevin arrived on time, measured, provided actual cost (close to estimate), completed work in 2 hours (again as estimated), and left me with a “like-new” carpeted rec room and a sparkling modular sofa. I definitely recommend this company and will use them again."

"They were wonderful! Arrived on time, worked efficiently, and were very friendly. This company was cheaper than another company I looked at, but you wouldn’t know it from the quality of the work. My carpet and rugs look new again!"

"Clawes Carpet replaced the flooring on both my entry way, main level, basement and the stairs which connect these levels in my townhouse. I cannot say enough positive thoughts about this company, its administrative staff, installers and the whole process from start to finish has been smooth and well organized (even when I requested to change the install date :)). They are accommodating and the final result is outstanding! I love the final results, and receive lots of compliments. This has been the best and most pleasant experience! I would and have recommended this company over and over."

"I am very satisfied with all aspects of the work and services provided by Woodbridge Carpet Supply and would highly recommend the company. Walter took time to meet with my husband and me to disucss and understand our needs. He arranged every detail of our install. The process was seamless. Scheduling was easy and we arranged to have the install on 9/25. The price was very reasonable. We had carpet installed in our entire 3 level townhouse, including all the stairs. The carpet installers (Santos, Trinny, Kelvin) were very professional and arrived on time. Our appointment started at 9am and they were completely finished by 2:30pm on the same day! The carpet looks and feels wonderful! My family and I are very pleased with the quality of the work and the quality of the carpet. The installers were respectful and cleaned up after themselves when the work was done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and I would use them again in the future."

"I’m so glad I found this service to install my carpet in my new home. My technician was super responsive and had my carpet installed within one day! The color I picked was exactly what I wanted and the quality lived up to my expectations. This carpet has really transformed the entire space. The installation was neat and clean cut. I will definitely be returning for my basement! Affordable, durable and quality carpet. I would most definitely recommend!"

"What a GREAT experience from start to finish. We had the Carpet Man install out living room and two stairways. The two brothers arrived on time and ready to work. They were polite, efficient and new their job completely. Vacuumed and cleaned up when finished, they even offered to move all our furniture back in place. Imad and his father at the store were very helpful. If you need carpet they are fair, have a large selection and very professional. "

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Dale City, VA

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.
