Q: What is a standard carpet roll width and length?

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.

Q: How much carpet and padding do I need?

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.

Q: What is a linear foot of carpet?

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 .

Q: How many square feet in a yard of carpet?

There are nine square feet in one square yard of carpet .

Q: How much carpet is needed to cover 2 rooms?

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.

Q: How much carpeting for 13 stairs?

You’ll need between 80 and 110 square feet for 13 stairs . For unique stairwells, you might need more.

Q: How do I find indoor/outdoor carpet measurements?

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.

Q: How much carpet do I need to repair a tear or pet damage?

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.

Q: How big is a square foot of carpet?

One square foot of carpet is one foot long by one foot wide.

This was a 0 grout joint installation and there was very little lippage, if any on the 12x24 tiles they installed. Would hire again anytime. Very nice people also."

"We needed carpet for our two bedroom condo. I checked Google and Angie’s List and generally the internet sites for places that sell carpet. I determined that “Creative Floors” had the most consistent good reviews. We live in the Conway area so we went to the south Orlando location. It had a very wide array of colors and grades of carpet, and vinyl etc. We wanted a middle grade carpet and they had a good selection. Our sales person was Chris. He was excellent. He asked question of grade, price range, and color and then showed us what samples he thought would meet our needs and then left us alone to look at, touch and discuss the selections. He gave us some samples to take home. We came back a few days later and bought one. Two weeks later the installers arrived. Those people work hard. The two men did an excellent job and were very neat and when they left it was vacuumed and looking great. The price was reasonable for quality carpet and my wife and I are very happy with the experience and we will recommend Creative Floors to friends. Their phone is 407-205-0313."
