"Jeff came out and did a fabulous job of cleaning our carpets. We have pets and kids with a 10 year old carpet (middle to the road quality wise) and he was able to make it look fresh again. Next time we need our carpet cleaned, we will certainly call Jeff/Carpet Care NW again. <br />"

"Carpet To Go handled our carpet selection and installation, through the Costco program. We were extremely pleased with the entire process, from selecting the carpet, to the fast scheduling, and excellent installation which was completed in less than 2 days. The price was very competitive, and the installers were professional, clean and courteous. We would not hesitate to recommend Carpet To Go."

"We were prepping our condo for resale. Macias had a number of well priced carpet options.They had the best price by far. We were able to schedule with just a few days notice. Christian was the installer. He arrived on time, and completed the work, removing and replacing the carpet and pad in the living room, dining room, two bedrooms, and hallway, in 5 hours. We have used them in the past, and will recommend them in the future. <br />"

"They did a beautiful job. They were very willing to work with me because it is easier to carpet a house when it is empty. They ended up coming 3 times to do the carpeting, because we did one bedroom, emptied it, did the other room,and emptied the living room. The quality was excellent. I didn't look around as far as price is concerned because it was okay for me. They had what I wanted, and I stuck with them. The punctuality was really good."

"From the first time we met with Jon Engles, the owner of MaxCare hardwood floors, we felt comfortable with Jon and felt we could trust him. He also was recommended by our insurance company. We felt if our insurance company trusted him, we could too. Jon Engles was very friendly, helpful and had good advice for us in assisting us picking out new flooring. We had been over whelmed with the thought of getting new floors in most of our home. He and his wonderful team made it painless for us. The crew arrived promptly on the day and time scheduled. Mark and John worked hard, fast and had no problems answering any questions or concerns we had. They were so very careful with our furniture and rest of our home. The owner Jon Engles even came by to make sure we were happy with his guys and the installation of the new flooring. His workers spoke highly of MaxCare hardwood floors and had worked for them for many years. It took them only 3 1/2 days to replace all the floors. They left our home clean, put furniture back and even vacuumed. We will not hesitate to recommend MaxCare Hardwood Floors for any type of flooring needed. I know we will be calling them again for new carpet in the future. Stop by their shop, the employees at the shop are so friendly and helpful. Thank you to the whole team for making this so stress free for us."

"Pauls Carpet Cleaning was professional from my first call requesting a quote to the final signing of paperwork after the job was done. The lady on the phone gave me the best quote of five different service providers. They had no problem meeting my schedule to come out and clean the carpets. When Doug the technician showed up, he was professional and went throughout the house to get accurate measurements. He explained everything that he was going to do before actually doing it. The actual price ended up being less than what I was originally quoted due to his measurements equalling a smaller area. He was thoural and did a great job on the carpets, and cleaned up everything before he left."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Gig Harbor, WA

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.
