"I had already picked out carpeting and needed an installer to tell me how much I needed to order. I had one installer give me a quote and I questioned the amount of carpet he said to order. That was when I went on Angi and thankfully, Josh came to my rescue. He came to my house, measured the job I wanted to have done and the amount of carpet he said to order was much less than the first recommendation. I needed someone to make area rugs out of rolled carpet and a runner installed on stairs. Josh was extremely helpful and efficient in planning and scheduling my job. The installers were excellent, friendly and polite and went above and beyond to ensure I was very happy with the job. They were very meticulous in laying the area rugs and cleaning up any fibers and debris left behind when they were done. I will definitely be using and recommending Advanced Flooring N.Y., LLC in the future."

"One of the owners came to the house and provided an accurate estimate. He helped me to select a carpet of good quality that was reasonably priced. He didn't try to steer me to the most expensive carpet. The installer left the house very clean and the work is flawless. The carpet looks even better than I had hoped. A few days after the installation was complete, the owner called to make sure that I was satisfied. I would recommend them and use them again. <br />"

"Bob and James arrived on time and worked diligently until finished. Our stairs are old and due to some variations in construction each step had to be measured separately and the vertical vinyl trim individually cut to size. Bob installed the steps and James measured every single vertical section to exactly fit the stair trim. Both the sizing and color match came out perfectly and the installation exceeded expectations. Bob and James are highly skilled at their craft and we have used them many times in the past as well, with excellent results. Thanks Bob and James!"

"It is important to work with Morris Losice. Our first attempt, with another member of the staff, was a bit unpleasant. We placed an order and never heard from him again. When we complained, Morris Losice took over, and everything was handled promptly and professionally. He came to our house at an arranged tome, measured the area, and took time to discuss our concerns. He agreed with the choice of our earlier order and immediately ordered it from the factory. We were asked to remove small items before installation, but the installer removed all the big pieces. His work was meticulous. Both Morris and the installer were friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable."

"Vic explained how the installation would happen, answering any questions I had to my satisfaction. The install occurred over a two day period, when I was still out of town. When I arrived to move in, I was very happy to see how great everything looked! This company does top quality work at a very fair price. I would definitely use them again!"

"The only problem that I have with Home Depot is that they subcontract the work out. I do not like that, because I do not know about the quality of the workmanship beforehand. The man who came out and measured for the insulation did not measure very well, because they were short for the installation. They were very straight forward when they discovered the issue. Other than the mis-measurement everything went fine. It did end up costing me about six hundred dollars more than the original estimate. I felt that the price was fair. They were not however straightforward with me about the President recalling the rebate for doing insulation work, which I think would have been nice to know."

"It went extremely well. The timely and professional job of installing vinyl planking in my basement. We are very pleased with the results. The team of two removed the old carpet and disposed of it. They moved the furniture in order to install the flooring. They did exactly what the said they would do. This is a family owned and operated business. I would not hesitate to recommend their service to anyone. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Guilderland-center, NY

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.
