"As is indicated in the stellar A rating in every category, I couldn't have been more pleased with all aspects of the products and services offered by Carpets to You. I have been patronizing this business for several years for tile and carpet throughout a number of renovations in our home. I have never been at a loss for options or assistance in making a decision and couldn't imagine using anyone else. Very highly recommended! <br />"

"The owner herself came out to measure and meet with me initially. I was very impressed with her professionalism! All the services we decided on cost as much as she had estimated, no surprises, and the carpets looked as good as they possibly could for 10-year-old white carpeting!"

"Chris provided the services of carpet cleaning and his contracted carpet stretching at our home. He doesn’t provide an estimate in person for the cleaning, but offers a rate per square footage. His final price matched our calculations based on the measurements of the rooms. The carpet stretcher did come prior to estimate the carpet stretching. The quality of work was excellent and professional, both for the carpet cleaning and his associated carpet stretchers. We thought the pricing was fair and reasonable compared to another estimate we received. We will plan to use this service again. We prefer to use owner operators and hiring Chris was a good decision for us."

"It is hard to know where to begin in describing our experience with Better Built Basements. From start to finish, I have never had a better experience with a company. There are three things that I believe set Better Built Basements apart from other businesses: the people, the quality of the work, and the value. Our project consisted of installing a family room, bedroom, and bathroom in our unfinished basement. During the five weeks it took to complete this project, I lost count of the number of people who were involved and I can only remember a few of their names. However, what I do remember is the polite, professional, and respectful manner of each and every BBB employee. The work crews arrived on time, left on time, and left the work area cleaned at the end of the day. Everyone from management to the skilled laborers made themselves available to answer my questions, explain things, and address any concerns. And this may sound like a small thing, but everyone looked me in the eye when speaking with me. I never felt rushed or dismissed or that my requests were unimportant. I felt respected and valued as a customer and as a human being. Regarding the quality of the work, I can only describe it as exceptional. BBB has specialized teams, including people who are responsible for framing, dry-walling, painting, flooring, finish work, electrical, and so on. These are skilled, competent people who take pride in their work. Only high quality products were used in our project, many of which are specifically designed for basement installations. As I am something of a perfectionist, I can almost always find something that needs improvement or correction. However, at the time of completion, there was not a single problem or issue that needed to be addressed. As far as value, BBB’s estimate was similar to others we received from other reputable contractors. We selected BBB because we felt that what they had to offer in terms of expertise, service, and experience made them the right fit for us. From our initial consultation with the designer (Robert), during which we spent hours coming up with the perfect design for our space, until the final walk through, our experience was virtually seamless. And thanks to the production manager (Jake) and the office manager (Kaitlyn), communication throughout the process was clear, timely, and uncomplicated. The project proceeded exactly on schedule and was completed within the projected time frame. This is a company that clearly knows exactly what they are doing. And although they have probably done hundreds of projects like ours, I never had the feeling that this was “just another basement” for them. From the moment we signed our contract until the day of completion, our experience with BBB was outstanding. I cannot recommend them more highly."

"I compared their price with Home Depot's and they beat them hands down. The thing that I liked most about Empire Today was the installation people. They were efficient, professional and they did a good job cleaning up when they were finished. There was nothing that I disliked about this company."

"After visiting many flooring places and being disappointed by the lack of interest shown by the salesperson in explaining, to me, carpet details, i.e., quality, density, price, etc., I googled flooring stores in my area hoping to come across one I might have missed. That's how I came across Willis & Co. From the moment I walked through the door and was greeted by Bryan, one of the owners, I knew I found the place I wanted to do business with and the more we talked the more certain I was that I made the right decision. I was comfortable and didn't hesitate to ask many questions, all of which Bryan patiently answered. He was professional, friendly, and extremely helpful in assisting me in my carpet selection and knew when to let me roam around on my own. I had no idea of what I wanted and ended up making several visits to the store. Each time I walked through the door I was greeted with a friendly smile by Bryan and/or Debbie, the other owner, who assisted me if Bryan wasn't available and took an interest in helping with my selection. They always insisted that I take carpet samples home to better determine which one would work. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Today (Friday) Bryan installed the carpet on the stairs. He was punctual and had the carpet installed in no time. He even vacuumed the area when he was finished.? I can't say enough about Bryan and Debbie, they are a great team to do business with. ? <br /> <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in East Haddam, CT

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.
