"You can't beat local family-owned businesses. Jason came out when he said he would and quoted a carpet stretching job for me. Often people won't waste their time on small jobs like this because it's a lot of work and not a lot of money for the effort invested. That or they just knock it out quickly and do a sub-par job to get to their next job. This was not Nei Brothers Carpets. He was on time, did the job perfectly and did it in the time frame/cost he stated. You cannot ask more from a business."

"My wife and i were extremely pleased with the timelines and professionalism of Yancys carpey. We searched and priced different companies and after reading a few reviews we decided to try this company. We went to their local store and was greeted by a friendly knowledgeable staff and was given the time to look at different samples without feeling rushed for a decision. They allowed us to take their sample slates home for a week and decide what we wanted. We were quoted a good price and given times for delivery and installation. Although we expexted some of our bathroom sub floor to need replacing, it turned out worse than we thought once wepulled up the old floor. Instead of wasting time and trying to redo a contract the installer Tom did the extra work and went well beyond what was asked of him and did a marvelous job repairing the floor and laying a new one. He barely charged us anything for the extra labor and was a true professional throughout the entire process. The carpet installers came on time and did a great job and in a timely manner. I highly recommend anyone looking for new flooring to check Yancys out. You will not be disappointed <br />"

"Lance is wonderful. He reached out right away after I submitted my project on Angie’s List. We set up a good time for him to inspect the job. Lance stretched 7 Year old carpet so it looks new again! The installer we used before said nothing could be done and walked away. Thanks again Lance!"

"Marcus and his crew were prompt, polite and willing to go the extra mile to provide excellent service. They were pleasant in their manner and patiently answered any questions and addressed all concerns efficiently. The Carpet was installed in the time promised with superior workmanship by himself and his crew. In addition, their manner in getting the rooms prepared for the Carpet installation and moving furniture was professional and they replaced every item in the room as well after the Carpeting was installed and the whole job went quite smoothly. We are very pleased with the Carpeting and it looks beautiful.  Whomever hires Marcus and his crew will be very satisfied and the entire process from start to finish will be executed in a professional  manner with all the details completed as well by Maxwell Carpet Sales and Installation with reasonable and competitive pricing. <br />"

"I was amazed an how swiftly our first meeting with Brian at Creative Carpet went. We knew what we wanted, and Brian was attentive to our input, swift with helpful suggestions, and not pushy with upselling to things we didn't need or want. The installers were prompt on arrival, wasted no time in work, and did an excellent job on the stairwell and the hallway. I am a very happy customer."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Joliet, 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.
