"I brought in 2 antique Persian rugs for cleaning that have been in my family for decades. Moojan's (the owner) expertise of the rugs and how to clean and care for them was exactly what I was looking for. I was very satisfied with the results and will be returning to him for future rug needs. He is the best in the DMV area."

"Mike the owner and his helper were here to do the job 20 mins. before the time we agreed upon. I was impressed by that. They were here at 8:00am which is what we agreed on. They moved my china cabinet, tv, and sofa. Removed old carpet and pad. By 10:30 they were all finished. They did an excellent job. Only took a few days for carpet to arrive from factory after he placed order then we sat a date to have it installed. I don't like it when I hire a company to do a job and assume the person I talked to is the one who will do the job but then they send other people who work for them who don't always do such a great job. One of the reasons I choose this company was because Mike sells and installs the carpet himself. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing carpet. Mike was very easy to talk to and very kind and courteous. It was a pleasure doing business with him."

"They provided us with an estimate quickly, and the price was very reasonable. They installed the carpets and the dining room floor in a timeframe that worked with our schedule. Great communication every step of the way, and their quality of work is top-notch. We have already hired them for an additional project, new floors in our basement. Awesome company, we would highly recommend World Flooring to anyone in Central PA who needs carpet or laminate floors."

"They did a fabulous job. They were well prepared and moved a seven floor headboard and some heavy furniture before starting the job. Anyone who picks this company will be more than satisfied. They go beyond the duties of a professional carpeting installation."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Palmyra, PA

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.
