"I contacted TW King on Monday, December 15th, hoping to have this and the cleaning done to the carpet before the end of the year. They scheduled me for the following day, upon completion of another job in our area. They called to let me know they were running a little behind their original time estimate, but Tracy and Tom (owners) arrived promptly at the adjusted time they gave me. I showed them some large areas of carpet in the finished basement that were water damaged; one was as old as 10 years, where upon drying, the carpet no longer stretched to the tackstrip under the molding. Another was the result of a reoccurrance of an old pipe leak from the ceiling in the middle of a large room, as well as a hallway. We also had some areas around the basement stairs where the carpet was starting to come up. They recommended stretching all of the water affected areas before cleaning so the carpet would be tight when cleaned and not leave wrinkles upon drying. They drilled in all of the tackstrips and restretched the carpet in 4 areas (a 20X20 family room, a 12X15 bedroom, a 13X6 hall way and the area in front of the stairs). They moved all of the furniture in both rooms (including a sofa bed, treadmill and a piano) and then vacuumed and moved everything back carefully to its original position. I also asked them to take a piece of the remnant of a karistan runner for our main staircase on the first floor and replace the lower 4 steps, which were beginning to show a lot of wear. It was seamless-even though the new piece is slightly darker, it is hardly noticeable because of how well it was installed to fit the design!I couldn't be more pleased with the result and the price. They took carpet that still had a lot of wear and made it seem new again."

"Aaron showed us some carpet in the shop and gave good advice on various carpet types. We arranged for him to come to the house to measure up and quote us a price. Unlike the big home improvement stores the estimate was free. The two installers came on time and did an excellent job. We had already removed the old carpet ourselves so that I could remedy some squeeks in the floor before the new carpet was laid. Removing the carpet and disposing of it ourselves saved about $150. Altogether it took about 4 hours for the install. The price was good. We had a previous quote for a similar carpet for about $400 more."

"This company has a "stain specialist" by the name of Ron Butler. He's terrific! Very good a what he does. Great people skills and knows what he's doing. We've changed carpet cleaning companies to Smith-Mathis because of what this Tech brings to the table ... expertise!"

"I have hired him three times now. Once was for ceramic tile work in November and I hired him again last month for additional tile work. I previously hired him for carpet work as well.  He is excellent and is reasonably priced! I will hired him again in the future. He is very good. I had a squeeky floor and he was able to fix that for me. The work is great!"

"Ross is great and did a wonderful job for us.  We are amazed he was able to remove some of the stains from our dogs, but he did and the carpets look brand new.  We're thrilled with the results. <br>"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Lawrence, IN

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.
