"Kelly's Carpet did a great job on our flooring.  They had a wide selection to choose from, the measurement process was smooth and the day we placed our order went well.  We were incredibly impressed with our installer, Justin.  He was punctual and professional.  We appreciated how clean he kept the work area and was very respectful of our home.   <br /> We noticed a few pieces of wood in our entrance that had spots we didn't care for.  They were natural to the wood, but we didn't like them being in the main walkway.  Since he had not permanently set the wood, he was happy to move them to a different spot. <br /> The tile in the master bath looks great.  The grout is a perfect color too.  We are very happy with the results. <br />"

"The company called me in the morning to let me know the workers were on their way to my house. The two workers arrived on time and after I showed them the rooms, they began work immediately. They carefully moved the furniture out of the rooms prior to installation, and even moved some additional furniture (that I requested) back into the completed rooms. I was very impressed with their work - it was fast and efficient. Their skill and professionalism were obvious. They took approximately 4.5 hours to complete the job. <br /> <br /> We went with Kelly's because their prices were lower than the large furniture store in town. We purchased Mohawk smartstrand carpet because of the excellent durability (long warranty) and soft feel. The price was about $3/sq foot for the carpet (including pad) and this price also included the furniture moving, tear-up and haul away of old carpet and pad, and installation. <br /> The only thing we would change is get a thicker pad. The standard 8 lb. pad comes with a water barrier (which is nice), but wasn't as thick as we thought it would be once we started walking around on the new carpet. <br /> <br /> Overall, the rooms look great and we're very happy with the product and service Kelly provided! <br /> <br /> We would definitely use them again."

"We had a carpet cleaning done prior to moving into our house. Previous owners had pets. He was up front about which stains had a good chance of coming out and which stains were likely to remain but tried hard to get rid of them all. The price was fair and the service was on time and efficient. Plan to use again."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Elkhorn, NE

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.
