"They did a great job from start to finish. We just moved into a home that needed a good amount of work and to finish the job, the stairs and upstairs bedrooms needed carpet. I had received a card from a friend who said Nei Brothers were very good. I called them and Dennis came over to measure the job and had 50 different samples with textures. We decided on a style that had a small design and they did a great job with install and clean up! Besides the carpet being installed, I didnt know they were there. Very price competitive, knowledgeable, and friendly. I would recommend them!"

"We highly recommend Carpet Outlet. Bill guided us to the right carpet for our needs – finished basement, family room and guest room – after we lost our carpet to water issues earlier this year. Bill was careful to guide us to the best carpet choice – not too cheap, but also, not too expensive. The carpet we chose is outstanding, could not be happier with it. Additionally, the installation crew was excellent – on time, professional, did not damage to walls, and put the carpet down tight. If you need carpet – strongly consider checking out the Carpet Outlet."

"Excellent experience overall. Larry in sales was very helpful, Dawn in the office is great at communicating and scheduling. Our installers did an excellent job, you absolutely cannot see any seams or any flaws at all. I would definitely use them again in the future."

"My recent experience with The Carpet Guys was a very positive one. The need for new carpeting arose from water seeping through a lower level bedroom wall. Chris Higgins, my sales representative, was courteous and informative regarding my carpeting options. His close attention also proved invaluable as he identified an additional area where water was entering the room. Had he not noticed this, the new carpet installation would have been ruined. I was equally pleased with the installation completed by Jose Gutierez. Even though I had misunderstood the arrival time, he was so accommodating, and he changed his schedule to ensure my carpet was installed on time. He did an excellent job placing the carpet under newly installed closet doors. I am grateful for such great customer service! (Order # MH064760)"

"I needed a new binding for one side of a sisal rug. Minasian found a near-perfect color match, so that it wasn't necessary to replace the binding on the other three sides, thus saving me a bundle of money. They also cleaned the rug and treated it with a stain guard. The whole project took almost 8 weeks---longer than I thought it should. But Minasian kept me informed through the process, and "comped" the materials charge (for the binding) for the delay. The pick-up and delivery occurred exactly at the appointed times."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Lake Zurich, 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.
