"We really appreciate his honesty about the work required. We thought our only option was complete refinishing, he advised that our floors were in good condition and he could focus on those spots that were badly worn. They turned out great. Thank Rush"

"He did a decent job cleaning, but he told me he needed some special sprays that he didn’t have. I was looking for someone who would put down the plastic on the floors to help keep furniture and other items off the floor while the floor was drying, and he didn’t have that either.  I was a bit disappointed in that regard.  He did the cleaning, and he cleaned well, but that was basically it.  With the ceramic floors, he didn't have any attachment to help clean under the cabinets where the machine wouldn't reach.  He did warn me of that beforehand, and I had him go ahead and do the work, but the corner areas were left darker than the areas he cleaned.  Again, he warned me of this ahead of time, but I would recommend to the company that they gain the ability to cover these corners."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Phenix City, AL

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.
