"Based on Angie's List ratings and visiting Bockrath's, it was obvious that this was the company to install my vinyl flooring. Doug Bockrath, the owner, was very helpful in determining what flooring would be best for this project. The installers, Matt and Mike Youngerman, were professional, timely, neat, and exceeded my expectations. They actually needed to spend an additional day on the install to correct an old issue and went out of their way to make sure everything was going to be a top notch installation. I could not be any happier with the expertise, knowledge, and professionalism shown by everyone associated with Bockrath. I highly recommend them for your flooring needs!"

"This was caused by a leaking condensate line form our overhead air conditioner. This company is a prefered contractor with Angler Construction. It was much simpler to have theri sale rep bring samples to our home rather than have to run out to 2 or 3 carpet stores and get sample and make a decision on style, color, etc. This took a lot of the work out of it for us. This was a pleasant experience for us. <br /> <br />"

"We have been Dayton Carpet Liquidator customers for over 20 years. The owner, staff and installers are focused on providing a quality product and excellent customer service at a reasonable price. We were not pressured in any way to purchase flooring and even encouraged to take samples home on more than one occasion. The installers are consummate professionals and the end product was noting short of excellent."

"They did my carpeting in my house about three years ago. I usually have it done right before Thanksgiving. What stands out most to me is their honesty.I had a chair, and I wanted them to clean the upholstery and he told me that honestly, the stains in there would not really come out all the way. I thought that was really remarkable because he wasn't going to charge me money to clean it when and he knew ahead of time that the stains in there were not going to come out because they had been in there so long. So that was something that stood out to me."

"They are excellent. They are pricier than like when you see the stuff in the coupon they are like five rooms for $799, but at the end of the day it was cost effective because they have honestly saved carpets that I thought I was going to have to replace. If you know your carpet cleaning it is worth it because they really do clean carpet these other places that you think are cheaper they just make your carpet wet so I don't how to do it. They are not the cheapest in town, but the value what they do is so much higher. I can't explain it. He is much better than anybody else. There are phenomenally cleaner. I have recommended them to people."

"<strong>I have the tile, and needed someone to install it.  After driving some distance to visit their store was told they ONLY install tile that's purchased from them.   I asked if he could refer me to someone who laid tile, he said  'no.'   RIDICULOUS!   Folks in the trades know lots of people who do this work.  'While the salesman was courteous, I left  most discouraged.<br /> My understanding when joining Angie's List is that my service request would be reviewed and responded to by qualified vendors.  That did not happen for me.</strong> <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Kettering, OH

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.
