"Closets by Design did a fantastic job designing and installing a custom walk-in closet for my bedroom. Amy Vanlacken performed the sales consultation and was pleasant, professional, and thoroughly knowledgeable. She did a great job answering my questions. She did a thorough job promoting the product while not pressuring me to purchase upgrades/options I did not want. Thank you Amy! As for the installation, Jim Burdon was my installer. Jim was polite, professional, talented, and took great pride in his work! I could not be happier with the installation. Thank you Jim! I now have a closet that exceeds expectations!"

"Bill came to the house the same day I called him. He measured and discussed installation. The next day he called with the estimate. I agreed to it, and gave him a deposit check the following day. The carpet came in when promised, and the installation dates were confirmed. Bill needed a second check before bringing the carpet. Installation took two days as planned. The installation quality is excellent. Bill and his son even helped me move large furniture I couldn't handle alone. When installation was complete I gave Bill the final check. Total cost met the estimate. You have to look past the long hair, because Bill does excellent work on time and at cost. <br />"

"Chad and Kyle called and could come earlier than scheduled, and that was great for us. They wore shoe protectors when coming in and out of the house, and protected our wall corners from the air duct exhaust hose. They were extremely professional and got right to work. We could hear all the 20+ years of debris going out through the air duct hose. Not sure if previous owners of our house ever ducts cleaned before, but we're sure glad it was done right for us. After the ducts were cleaned, they got right to work on the carpet. It looked so much brighter when they were done. They used their truck mounted extraction method, and it didn't take too long for the carpet to dry afterwards. Would highly recommend! They will be our go-to cleaners in the future!"

"I went to O'Connors and Joan waited on me. She helped me choose the floor covering that would be best for me. Joan was helpful, friendly and made things easy. Mike came out and measured the room (and was also very gracious.) Gene and his team replaced the carpeting swiftly and professionally. They cleaned up after themselves down to making sure all dust was off the molding. All around great experience."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Bay City, MI

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.
