Formely Fleming & Sheeley (purchased by former Fleming & Sheeley employees after previous owner's retirement), now First Class Incorporated, we're proud to provide the same quality, affordability, and timeliness that were Fleming & Sheeley's hallmark.

"Reese guided us through the many possible flooring solutions and helped us to select appropriate choices based on our specific needs for the three rooms involved. He lent us the large-size samples to bring home to do color matching. He then came over to measure exactly, specify, and propose the specs and costs. Upon acceptance he ordered the materials and scheduled the work. The two specialists came on time and did excellent, professional work (10/31/19 - 11/1/19). We've given it 7 weeks before writing the review, during which we are enjoying the new flooring more and more, and are glad we did this long-needed upgrade. No problems arose during this whole process and Reese and his workmen patiently and expertly answered our many questions throughout."

"I felt like I was really pressured to make a decision right there and then -- and I was clearly uncomfortable with making this decision. After sleeping on it, I decided this was not the right time to get luxury vinyl plank for so much $ and canceled the order. I have yet to receive the refund which was for 50% of the total price."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Essex, 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.
