"They did a great job. It was excellent. The two-man crew was very responsive and punctual. And their price was awesome. They also cleaned a fabric-covered chair for a good fee, while they were there."

"Faisal has been and is outstanding! Repair and cleaning were top shelf all the way! We’ve had three antique rugs cleaned, repaired and appraised with a total value of more than $30k and I trust no one else for this type of work! Oriental Rug Weavers are the absolute best!!"

"Dealing with Steve was wonderful. Very responsive, told me what and when to expect what. The installation went fine but there was a broken clip on my bed frame from when they moved it. Some seams are also a little more noticeable than I thought they would be after just a few months. They did give me the best price for the same carpet as their competitors."

"Terrible! I could have done a better job myself. Frankly, they have done such a sloppy useless job that is nit worth a penny. To add insult to injury, one of the technicians had a bad attitude. Stay away. You have been warned."

"This company did $6500 worth of damage to our floors. They initially agreed to pay for the repairs but when I sent them the bill they suddenly claimed that they didn't do any damage and wouldn't pay. Beware!"

"After extensive research, I contracted with Absolute Carpet Care for my upholstery cleaning. They were spectacular! Everything from their scheduler to the gentlemen that came to the house: very personable, professional, and efficient. The pieces that they cleaned were 16+ years old and now they literally look brand new. Their pricing was competitive and reasonable. I wish I would have contacted them years ago, I will definitely use them again. Highly Recommend!"

"I have been a customer of Hedayat for well over 9 years, from the time his ad appeared in Angies List. He is an expert on all things carpets which means as an appraiser, in addition to the cleaning and repair services provided, the quality of the work is the best it gets. My carpets thanks to the care given, all continue to look as they did when I brought them back to the US from the Middle East 14 years ago. I highly recommend Art Connection to those members who are seeking expert evaluation of and care for their prized Oriental carpets."

"PHENOMENAL! And I don’t bestow superlatives to just anyone. Our home's main floor and finished rec room were flooded in November 2017 just before Thanksgiving by a brand new Speedqueen washer that overflowed, and Clawes Carpets staff were our right arm throughout the nearly year-long insurance negotiation and restoration process! Adam in sales went head-to-head with our insurance company (Erie) for months, helping us ensure the extensive carpeting damage was covered, despite Erie’s claims to the contrary. Company co-owner Roy Clawes even went to the mat for us when Erie's insurance supervisor questioned Clawes' carpet measurements and tried to renegotiate the extent of the restoration. Thanks to Adam and Roy, we prevailed, but it took 6 months of persistence! This week Roy even offered to box up our office stuff when we were pretty exhausted – we’re very grateful, Roy, but in the end we managed to get everything packed up before your installation crew arrived :-) We were doubly thankful when Clawes assigned the da Vinci's of carpet installation -- Edgar Velasquez and Anibal Orosco -- to install our new carpet and pad on both floors. With 30 years in the business under his belt, Edgar is the epitome of AMAZING -- incredibly customer-service oriented, quick and hardworking PLUS a keen eye for detail in laying out carpet so it's as seamless as possible, all the while suggesting options we would not have thought of ourselves. It took a full 3 days to re-carpet both floors – with Edgar and his very capable wing-man Anibal working morning til evening -- moving EXTREMELY HEAVY furniture while ensuring our home remained as clean and orderly as possible each day – even vacuuming every square inch of newly installed flooring. Clawes scheduling staff knew we had just painted and re-wallpapered our 2 floors, and Edgar and Anibal went the extra mile to ensure our walls remained pristine, hand-carrying back-breaking 12-foot rolls of carpet and pad without touching our walls. The end result: perfection! There's a very good reason why both Edgar and Anibal are in extremely high demand by Washington-area designers who wait months for their special touch as carpet installers. We're indebted to everyone at Clawes for their partnership, and we wouldn’t hesitate to give them our business when it comes time to redo the flooring in our rest of our home. We’re indebted to all of you, and convey our grateful thanks for a job exceeding well done!"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in District Heights, MD

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.
