"We ordered a new roof from Phoenix Exteriors in late September. We had a signed agreement for a new roof with Corey Cross & our roof still sits unrepaired. I gave Corey a deposit of $5,496.61 Oct. 3rd & still do not have a new roof. Phoenix Exteriors refused to honor the contract & refused to refund. This is a breach of contract for nonperformance. My wife tried to contact Corey & Nathan many times & they did not return her texts or calls. Nathan said pay for ice & water shield to code. Original contract states that this & all repairs will be to code. Nathan then requested we pay $855 for chimney flashing. They agreed to repair our severely damaged soffits & then later tried to remove this. We were told the roof would be complete in about 4 weeks in late Sept. & now in February, they left us with a severely damaged roof. We told Cara Rojas that their company has breached the original contract & we need a full refund & ignored. Corey from Phoenix Exteriors also has in the original contract 5 free boards & Nathan tried to change it to no free boards later. This is yet another breach. Phoenix Exteriors failed to apply for the permit for this roof. We were asked in Oct. about a permit & told the permit would be ordered, yet Cara contacted us in December & no permit. This is another breach for nonperformance. I then contacted the owner, Eric Stanis. He refused to honor the original contract & refused to refund. He blamed us & told us to cancel the contract which they have already breached many times & he will charge us cancellation fees they will determine. This is theft. Because of their negligence and multiple breaches this contract has been null and void for months. The contract states that if acceptance is declined by Phoenix Exteriors for any reason, all deposited monies will be refunded by Phoenix Exteriors. They declined to abide by this contract & have declined to refund all monies. The contract also states that any modifications to this contract which change the cost, materials, work to be performed, or the estimated completion date must be in writing & signed by all parties. We never signed the proposed changes. Because these breaches on their part, we are owed our $5,496.61 which they are illegally still holding and refusing to refund. Phoenix is also lying when they stated funds are released. No funds have ever been released to us. Company later claimed they released funds minus their cancellation fees they will determine. The only funds that will be accepted to be released is the $5,496.61. If this is not received, we will be forced to sue for additional damages your company's negligence has caused our roof. Pictures attached are what Phoenix has left us with, including the highly stressful situation they created."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in New Orleans, LA

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.
