"It went great. Matt arrived promptly at the appointment time. He was friendly and professional. He explained everything and then began working. I would definitely use this company again. I had two stains in the carpet that came out. It looks great and smelled nice too. I have absolutely no complaints."

"Hired Elie Carpet to paint the interior of my home. It was a big job. They bid the job competitively, but more importantly followed up repeatedly. The quality of their work was excellent and the employees were courteous and professional. They were helpful throughout the process, easy to work with, and always available to answer questions. I would hire them again, and highly recommend the company."

"Saad and the guys at Allied were great. They were very helpful in the store helping up pick out a carpet and gave us the space to think it over without being overbearing. I was very happy with the install as well. The guys that came to my house were very respectful and helpful. The finished product is absolutely beautiful. Everyone that comes to my house loves this room now. We will be going back to Allied for the rest of our carpet needs! Thank you everyone at Allied."

"The only complaint I have about them is that, the guys didn't reprogram my TV as far as the TV in my kitchen. It has to be reprogrammed. My daughter did it for me and I had to call the Comcast guy and he had to give me a new signal because they messed everything up. But the rugs they did a good job on. The padding and the carpeting you pay for. Then in the kitchen, you have to pick the wood under the carpeting, they don't put padding under there. The padding is real nice in the living room because it's soft. Every three years I have to get a carpet person to clean it. You have to pay for the padding, the installation and the carpet. <br /> They have to be trained. If they take a TV apart, like the living room, the TV programs itself. But, in the kitchen it's a little TV and it's not as big as the other one, and it had to be reprogrammed and the guy didn't know how to do it. I told the boss, you got to train them right so that when they leave they left it the way that they found it. Because they said they couldn't work around it because they had to put the wood under the rug."

"I called Bob in to give me an estimate to replace the carpeting in 2 bedrooms of a condo. Since I live out of town and was there for the day Bob was very accommodating and worked his schedule to meet with me . With samples in hand, the entire process of selection and pricing was finished within a half hour. Since the carpet I chose was in stock, the job was finished within a few days and looks great! I'm very happy with the entire project and would recommend Bob's Carpet Service. Great pricing, Great service..Thanks Bob!!! <br />"

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.
