"All the 5 star reviews you see are very well-deserved but Hammer Head really earns 6 stars! They go above and beyond expectations with professionalism, careful, detail-oriented work. In addition, the Hammer Head team was careful in moving existing furniture around so they could do their work. In addition to his great communication and high standards, James C. has a sense of design that is hard to find with a remodeling company. Hammer Head made my home feel like a new again!"

"Jader Costa and his assistant came to remove carpeting from my living room and dining room which was over 30 years old. They very efficiently removed the carpet wrapped it up brought it to the curb and removed all hardware dust dirt and remnants of the carpet. It was beautifully done. They were very neat and clean and professional, and I will definitely hire them going forward for my future floor needs!"

"Incredible service! My rugs had years of wear and pet stains, and I was honestly skeptical they could be restored. But this team worked wonders! The rugs came back looking brighter, softer, and completely odor-free. Everyone I interacted with was professional, respectful, and helpful. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for dependable, high-quality rug cleaning."

"I found them by their good reviews here and they did an amazing job! They did the flooring in my kitchen and one bathroom. It looks great! I'm so happy I did it! They showed up when they said they would and did an awesome job. What more can you ask for? They were also very nice people. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to get a floor done. And they have a beautiful showroom full of samples to view if you want to."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Hillsborough, NJ

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.
