"Carpet Fair has been installing quality carpet in my various apartments and home for the past 15 years. They have installed carpet in three different apartments per year over that period. I've branched out with the Home Depot and additional carpet businesses from time to time, but no beats these guys in terms of response and installation time, price, and especially customer service (which is almost non existent with the Depot). Mark usually has the installation completed within a day or two of the order. I highly recommend for you home office or business.  "

"HIGHLY recommend this carpet cleaning service. Went through Angie's List to get recommendations and Walter responded within just minutes of my quote request. We continued to chat back and forth and he responded immediately every time. By the end of that day we had an appointment set up for the following week. He showed up early, was efficient, extremely knowledgable about stain removal, etc. and his price just can't be beat. It was literally half of the price of the quotes that I received from several other local carpet cleaners (even with the little extra I paid to get out several VERY tough kid stains like juice, slime concoctions, etc.) The carpet looks practically brand new and it's been a very hard-lived-in kids playroom for over a decade."

"I take my carpets to the shop to have them cleaned. Everyone I've met on the Angelo's team is friendly and capable. With self-delivery and pickup I receive a considerable discount. Within a week or two, I get my cherished Turkish carpets back clean and in great shape. <br />"

"Where do I start!? From start to finish Sam and his associates were great. Professional from start to finish, offered me various styles of carpet within my price range, expedited the install on short notice and the price was definiteky right. I can tell he takes pride in his business and assures quality work. He definitely delivered! And we will absolutely be using his business for the rest of the floor work in my mother-in-law's home. If it wasn't for Angie's list I never would have found this place. I recommend Roman's. Trust me, I'm picky. Lol <br />"

"LLB Flooring was our first experience doing any sort of construction or dealing with any contractor. It's hard to find a contractor to trust but we are glad we went with LLB. We had carpet ripped out and hardwood installed - We also had some old hardwood ripped out and replaced with hardwood. LLB was excellent. Floors look great and have been holding up well so far. Bekar was always very responsive to any questions before hiring, and even during the job. The workers were extremely nice, respectful and were very neat."

"The guys at Carpet Warehouse were fantastic to work with. We were moving into a new home and had a week between settlement and our move-in date, and we wanted all work completed before the movers arrived. (Much easier to install new carpet in an empty home.) Mike at Carpet Warehouse understood our timeline, made recommendations for carpet he knew they had in stock or would be able to get quickly, and provided us with great options. The installers showed up on time, were professional, and did a great job. The cost was competitive. I would definitely use these guys again."

"First, the purchase experience was great!  This is the second purchase we have made from King Carpet Mart and have been satisfied both times.  We were most impressed by the guys who came and did the installation.  They moved the furniture, took up the old carpet, and laid the new.  They moved the furniture back in place, and even took a few minutes to vacuum the living room carpet.  Everything went smoothly, and we didn't have to worry about disposing of the old rugs. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Media, PA

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.
