"The whole process went extremely well. It was a pleasure working with Madi and selecting the right color, and Michael and his crew did an excellent job installing the carpet and placing all the furniture back perfectly. Would highly recommend Key Carpet!"

"From start to finish, the process was very smooth and professional. Everyone we had contact with was amazing: Diane, Greg, Chris, and Doug. Diane was the salesperson and she was amazing - VERY prompt, professional and responsive. She was able to get us the detailed specs on the carpet we were looking for and also answered my many questions without hesitation. The installation crew was also amazing. Greg, the installation manager, was willing to work with me and answer any questions I had. The installers, Chris and Doug, were top notch. Very nice and professional. They took their time and paid great attention to detail - making sure things were done right. The job turned out gorgeous! Thanks, Classic Carpet!"

"This company did an excellent job. They were especially careful as they tore out the old kitchen floor and installed a new ceramic tile floor. They were very attentive to detail throughout the entire job. My wife and I were extremely pleased with the installers and the final ceramic tile floor. I would recommend them to anyone."

"I highly recommend locally-owned business, Flooring galaxy. The owner, Michael is knowledgeable about his products, came out personally to measure for flooring and delivered the wood himself. He is always available to answer questions and lend a hand. When we struggled to match the wood floor vents to the wood floor color, he recommended a professional (Austin) who did a marvelous job. He offers superior customer service that you won’t get at most places."

"We had them come to our house and measure the areas that we wanted to install new carpet. I thought I would hear back from them in a couple of days but did not. When I called to follow up she said she had been leaving messages at a wrong phone number. So, it didn't get off to a great start. We decided to go ahead and purchase the carpet and picked our installation date. The installer arrived on time and did a good job. We plan on using them again in the Spring when we have additional carpet installed."

"Kristin showed up right on time. After carefully looking at our flooring & explaining options to my wife & I it was apparent how friendly, knowledgeable & professional she is. She said she would love to sell us a new floor but that if we could tolerate the few tiny cracks we had, we might be better off waiting until they were more noticeable & then replace the floor. To do it right would require tearing up the existing floor, getting a good foundation, and then placing tile. Previous tile only 7 years old but not installed well at all. So great to experience a company with honesty & integrity. Definitely will call them when we need any flooring work. I can see why they are rated so highly on Angie's List."

"As with our carpet cleaning, Amants did a great job cleaning our floors. Always prompt and professional, and more than happy to answer any questions about cleaning process or how to maintain floors in between major cleanings like this. Excellent locally owned company that treats their employees well. All seem to have been with company for many years, and everyone is very friendly. <br />"

"Clark floor came in and refinished our hardwood floors in the dining room, living room, hallway and 2 bedrooms, and put a carpet runner on the stairs.  They also recommended someone who replaces banisters.  They did a fantastic job on the floors and carpet.  The banister was amazing also.  The job took 5 days to complete.  The office staff was amazing and knowledgeable.  I will definitely use them again and recommend them. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Hamel, IL

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.
