"We contacted Carpet Pros to help us with stretching carpet to repair a bunched up area in our hallway and to clean the carpets. They quickly responded, and I met with one of the owners, Darrell, at my home. Darrell provided us with a quote for the work and we scheduled the work without any issues. The work was completed without any issues and now our carpet looks great and there are no more signs of any bunched up carpet! Overall this was a great experience: they quickly solved our problem and delivered on what they promised."

"The crew did an excellent job. They were very careful of walls, furniture, etc. They cleaned up very well and put everything back in its place. (I removed all lamps, small items, and knick-knacks and emptied out closets along the floor.) They worked all day non-stop to complete. Also Reuben Phagen, the sales person in the Charlotte store, was very personable and worked with me to choose the right carpeting and pad, as well as to schedule on a convenient date. He came to the house with sample boards and got me any samples that I requested. Also they had interest free financing available. This vendor was easy to work with and I would highly recommend. I did some price comparison with other vendors, and they were the best for what I wanted. I love the carpeting color and soft texture. I chose Shaw Dreamweaver with 8 lb. pad with pet protection."

"Don't look anywhere else. Your carpet install search is over. If he's booked, he's worth the wait. Mike, the owner, and Brandon did such a great install, I'm hiring him to install our hardwoods. Mike is very responsive, answered all my many questions, fair pricing, prompt and was very professional. He did such a great job, we're having them do our hardwood flooring. A+++"

"You can buy nice flooring lots of places. At A-1 CARPET & TILE you get outstanding service along with beautiful flooring. I had large plank wood-look tile installed throughout the house (both the downstairs and upstairs) and carpet on the stairs and landing. Mohammad listened to what I wanted and made excellent recommendations. He stayed in touch with me on when the installation would begin/end, working around my schedule. His installers were on-time, professional, and hard-working (arriving by 8am and not leaving until 7pm). Mohammad followed up throughout the installation, making sure I was happy with both the selection and the crew working (I was!). My flooring is absolutely gorgeous...just what I wanted! I highly recommend A-1 Carpet & Tile!"

"<p>This company did a wonderful job finding a nice carpet in our budget, moved all the furniture in record time, even breaking down all the beds and putting them all back together, installed the new carpets and completed the job in one day. It was very impressive and couldn't have gone better. We even saved a little money unexpectedly when the installer recommended we keep our good pads instead of replacing them thus reducing his hourly pay. I will never call anyone else to replace carpets in our home. Thank You team- we love our new carpeting. </p> <br />"

"We choose Carefree Carpets to redo several areas of carpet in our home. Several team members helped us out. Robert came to our house and discussed our carpet needs and options, he measured our entire upstairs for installation of wall-to-wall carpeting. We then met with Spencer at the store to finalize our carpet choices. He helped us determine the appropriate type of carpeting for a runner as this was our first time installing one. Additionally we purchased two area rugs from Carefree. Mike installed our runner and did an amazing job. We are happy with all of the carpets in our house and the installation. We would work with Carefree Carpets for carpet needs in the future."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Lowell, NC

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.
