"Prior to calling Floor Coverings International, we had previously priced out carpet with 2 other local companies.  We did not receive written quotes from the other 2 companies, just verbal quotes.  Jonathan Wilk, the owner, called and set up an appointment to meet in our home at 4pm on a Thursday night.  He came on time.  We thought it was a good idea to come to our home with samples.
Well, Jonathan came and talked with us for a while to "get to know his customers".  Which is fine, but we want to talk about carpet!  We did a walk through of our house and discussed problem/high-traffice areas.  He took measurements and video for his installers.  Up to this point it was about 5:30 or 6pm.  He went to his car to work on the quote.  We ate dinner while he did that.
When he came back in, he had a very detailed layout of our home and then showed us the sales pitch on his computer. He showed us the samples he selected and we discussed the price on the quote.  It was really high and not competitive with the other 2 companies.  Then we talked about seeing a cheaper carpet.  The quote for that was $6,600.  We did get nicer padding for the family room as our house sits on a slab foundation. We selected the carpet and were asked to paid for 1/2 of it upfront so that the carpet could be ordered.  Since we were in the process of painting, he agreed that we could stall installation for a week or so until the painting was completed.  Finally, at 8pm, Mr Wilk left our home.  He is a nice enough guy but when you have just gotten home from work, squeezing in dinner and getting kids ready for bed, a 4 hour spiel is not what we wanted.  We could have done without the beginning getting to know you portion and the video presentation.  Also, when he first quoted us a carpet that was well out of our budget, we felt like we couldn't afford good quality carpet.  That made us feel like we were broke!  It may have been better for him to ask us what price range we were looking at.
 Installation went well.  It went over 2 days.  Jonathan told us what to do to prepare for installation.  Basically, we had to clear all the tops of furniture, remove electronics, etc.  Install was coordinated by another fellow, Stephen.  He had 2-3 installers come and they removed and hauled away all the old carpet and pad.  They moved the big furniture.  We did have a problem area in on the subfloor in our master bedroom that we discussed with Jonathan but apparently was not discussed with the insulation crew.  The installers both noticed the problem when they pulled up the carpet but since they were not told by Stephen to fix it, I guess they didn't think they had to.  I knew this area was a real problem for us so when they got to the master bedroom, I was watching to ensure it would be resolved.  It was an easy fix but one that required proper communication of the problem and time for the leveling compound to dry.  The installers did vacuum and removed all their debris.
Finally, I am happy to say that the carpet we choose is a beautiful color and seems to be a good quality carpet.  Our old carpeting was in terrible shape after 11 years but I feel this carpet will hold out much better.  Two doors are dragging on the carpet and I sent an email to Jonathan.  He said Floor Coverings international does not fix the doors but he did give me the names of two people that I can call for the repair.
We are pleased with the process but would recommend a short "sales-pitch" and better communication with the install crew.  Also, it would have been nice if Mr Wilk stopped by himself to see the final product.

FAQs for carpet repair, refasten, or stretch projects in Nicholasville, KY

Removing a rug costs around $0.40 to $0.50 per square foot. This includes the fee for a contractor to roll up the rug and haul it away in a vehicle for disposal or recycling. If they need to move furniture, they might charge an additional $0.25 to $0.30 per square foot of furniture.

If your carpet has minor damage—like a single area that requires stretching, patching, or cleaning—it might be less expensive to pay for carpet repair than remove and replace it. Repairing carpet costs around $210 per project.

The cost of carpet cleaning is about $190 for a three-bedroom home, so it’s a good idea to have your carpet cleaned at least once a year. But most carpeting only lasts 10 years. If your carpet is nearing the end of its life span, it might be more cost-effective to remove and replace your carpet than to clean and repair it. The average cost to install a new carpet is about $1,800.

Commercial carpet removal usually costs on the lower end of the carpet removal price range, around $1.10 per square foot or even less. Carpet installation contractors often offer discounted rates for larger projects, like commercial carpet removal and installation. Similarly, you might be able to negotiate a lower residential carpet removal cost if the carpet is pulled up throughout your entire home.

Most cities accept old carpets as bulk trash, but you may need to schedule a special pickup and prepare the carpet properly. Remove any nails or glue residue, cut the carpet into manageable pieces, and roll and secure them. Alternatively, you can take your old carpet to a local recycling center for a small fee, where it can be processed and repurposed.

Yes, you can remove carpet yourself if you're ready for a labor-intensive task. DIY carpet removal requires heavy lifting and tools like utility knives, pliers, and pry bars. The process is generally straightforward but time-consuming for stapled-down carpet. If your carpet is glued down or you're worried about damaging the subfloor, hiring a professional is best to ensure the job is done safely and efficiently.
