"Wonderful! <br /> The product we selected from samples and we were pleased. The installers were perfect. Tile installation was Derrick and the carpet installers were brothers, Terry, Jerry and Billy. We could not have asked for a better crew. <br />"

"I needed a few areas cleaned and some traffic areas in other rooms cleaned as well as a stairway.  Carpet had been cleaned a couple of years ago and was still very clean except in these few areas.  Advanced had an Angie's List special and a schedule opening immediately as I needed it.  I negotiated to get the few traffic areas cleaned without cleaning the whole rooms and causing me to have an excessively large bill.  When technician arrived I discussed the areas with him to ensure the negotiation was reasonable.  He agreed and began work.  Very nice young man, friendly, and careful to put guards around corners so hose wouldn't damage my freshly painted walls, doors, and trim.  He immediately had problems with the brand new truck-mounted machine not generating the steam/hot water properly.  He called the owner who came right over and found a blown fuse.  A quick trip to the hardware store a mile away and they had everything working properly.  Did a great job except for one area where there were some small ground-in stains.  He had pre-treated these areas but the stains didn't come out and were visible the next day as the carpet dried.  I had some aerosol carpet cleaner that I sprayed and rubbed that got most of the stain out; followed up with dish detergent and scrubbing that got them out the rest of the way..  Gave a B mark for quality just because they didn't make a follow-up call to find out how things turned out.  Stuff happens, I would not mark down their score for their new equipment issues.  It didn't cause me any problem for additional time that day.  They called for support who immediately drove to my house and debugged and repaired the broken equipment.  Extra credit for going the extra mile to get my job done without needing to reschedule (which wold have been a problem). <br />"

"Majestic carpets have been to my home twice now over the past two years. They have cleaned my carpets and furniture. It is always a pleasure to have them here. They do great work, last time was on short notice, and are affordable. I definitely look forward to using them next time I need to have the carpets done."

"He is excellent. I use him a couple of times in the year usually. He is prompt, on time and does a fantastic job. He moves my furniture and sets it up on the foam blocks to dry, so I never have any stains on my carpet from the wood furniture that may have stains that moisture would mess up the carpet or anything. He does a great job. I have been using him for 8 years. I really like this guy. I called him before one time when my pet made a dreadful mess. His schedule was full that day, but he came after he had all the other work and helped me with that mess; otherwise, it would have ruined that carpet, if it would have sat there for days or anything. I cleaned it up, but some things are just dreadful and it got to be attended as quickly as possible. He also uses the materials that are of the high quality."

"Exceptional job by John Newberry! Almost 40 years of experience and strong endorsements from previous customers from Angie's list were the determining factors to contract this professional. Very service oriented, friendly, professional, prompt. His level of service and expertise were next level! Always on time and worked on my carpet project as if it were his own house. Both John and Josh were terrific. I can't say enough great things about them and would most certainly recommend them to my family and friends. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Oak Ridge, TN

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.
