"From the beginning to the end, Michael's was very helpful and professional. They helped us pick out the carpet in the showroom (which was not the most expensive brand they had). I pulled up my own carpet and discarded it, so they were more than happy to give a discount since they didn't have to do it. They installed the carpet (approximately 25' x 25') in less than three hours. Very courteous and professional. If you go with these guys, you will not be disappointed! <br />"

"Robert Hicks came in to repair the damage that had been done when we foolishly hired Wood I Do Flooring in Lynchburg, VA to install and stain hardwood floors and ceramic tile in our house (check out my review of them...do not EVER hire them to do any work for you unless you like to throw money away and have your house trashed in the process). Robert did an excellent job repairing the damage that had been done and finishing the installation that had been left undone. His quality and craftsmanship are excellent. He is a little on the pricey side, but after going cheap (regrettably so) the first time, the results were totally worth it. <br />"

"Our purple carpet had about 100 urine stains from previous dogs and our own. The specialist, Robert, matched to color and treated every spot. If we didn't know where they were, we'd never know they spots had been there. Perfect job!"

"The installer of the wood flooring did a phenominal job. Even though the project became more complicated than originally expected due to more extensive leveling of the concrete slab floor being required, the job was completed to exceed my expectations. The floors look great and everyone at the business (including the owner Charles) kept abreast of my projects progress. The kitchen tile, on the other hand, was not as pleasant of an experience. Much like my previous experience with Piedmont about 6 months earlier on the upper level of my home, the tile installation team was not good with detail and once again left without finishing up the detail work (despite my being very specific about wanting this done based on an earlier experience with them). They also damaged the door of my refrigerator during the installation. All that being said, Charles and my salesman (Wayne) were very responsive and did everything possible to ensure that I was satisfied with the work and that everything was completed without too much frustration. I would absolutely use them again for wood or carpet. It would have to be a <em>really </em>good deal to put up with the hassle of the people that they use to do tile work. The job ultimately turned out great, but the tile guys t**** the overall experience."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Lynchburg, VA

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.
