"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!"

"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."

"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."

"This is an update to my initial review I posted in August 2018. Despite the initial bumps in the road, I can honestly say that the craftsmanship of Dan's guys is truly top notch. Martin and his brother handled the demo of our existing parquet floor and laid our new pre-finished hardwood floorboards and the finished product looks great. They also handled the installation of the new baseboards as well. There were a few boards that were damaged during install and not noticed until the work was completed but Martin expertly removed the boards in question and replaced them with new ones and you can't even tell the difference between the original install and the replaced pieces. Honestly, I still have concerns about their sometimes slow communications and returned phone calls but ultimately, the craftsmanship is what's most important to me and I would certainly recommend Dan and his crew to friends looking for new carpeting or flooring."

"I would highly recommend Optimum Carpet Care. We had two rooms and 4 leather furniture pieces cleaned. Mike was VERY thorough in working on our furniture while Joe & Steve did the carpets. They were on time, did great work, and the price was reasonable. They explained what they would do, had a set price, and got the job done in a reasonable amount of time. Would certainly use them again."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Lincolnshire, 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.
