"Nicholas Carpet Care saved the day again! Our beagle stay with a pup sitter who must have fed her too many treats! Woke up to messes in THREE different rooms. Called Nicholas Carpet Care and they were able to fit me into their schedule within the week. Don cleaned up the messes and was courteous and professional. I highly recommend this fabulous company!"

"Jason did an awesome job of installing our carpet. He was very respectful, came each day on time and let us know what to expect for the following days. He finished on time and even brought in some furniture that was delivered by UPS. He was a very nice person to work with and the price of the carpet was quite reasonable and the quality is great. I would recommend Carpet Classics!"

"The work was done well with great attention to detail.  From ordering through installation, the project was a complete success. Replacing old carpet and installing new wood flooring does create dust, but nothing exceptional and the installers made every attempt to minimize the dust and reduce the dislocation the project created."

"Dave and his crew really came through for us. We had pre-purchased carpet for a remodeled attic about a year earlier that needed to be installed. When the crew came to Install the carpet they let us know that we did not buy enough carpet to finish the job. Dave and his team installed what they could and then squeezed us into their packed schedule a week later after we purchased the remaining carpet. The crew was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Our carpet looks great and we are glad we found Pannell Floors!"

"After getting a few recommendations of carpet layers who wouldn't return phone calls, Mike was a breath of fresh air. Worked with us on scheduling, arranged the pickup of the new carpet from the warehouse, showed up on time, pulled up and hauled off the old carpet, scraped and cleaned the underlayment, and did a beautiful job with the installation. Polite, friendly and easy to work with -- couldn't ask for more. This was a very thick, plush carpet that would have shown any imperfections in installation, in a room with stairways intruding in two places and a side nook. Not a simple job. The result was perfect. Would use him again in a heartbeat."

"We have used Carpets by Rex many times over the years and ALWAYS receive the same great (and personal) service. This time we did an addition on our house and since we have used him before (he does all the work himself- no hired guys) there was no question about getting any other bids. We knew going in that the carpet would be exactly as agreed and the carpet pad would be better than the standard offered by others ~ no shortcuts. He gave us a quote for the carpet job we wanted, showed up on the day he said (early as usual) and proceeded to do the job. When completed he had us check out his work. Like I said, we have used him over the years for both our home and our business carpet needs. He takes pride in his work and it shows. <br />"

"We unfortunately had a small section of engineered hardwood flooring damaged due to a plumbing leak; less than 8 sq. ft. I contacted multiple contractors to get a quote and Sergey was the only one who responded. No one else wanted to deal with such a small repair project. He came out to review the situation and discuss the challenges of getting it right, especially since we only had a few pieces of material to work with that we saved from the original install 11 years ago. This was a very tricky, surgical repair with little room for error. Sergey arrived on time the day we agreed upon, we again discussed the risks if something went wrong, and he got to work. He removed a small section to evaluate how the pieces were glued to the concrete flooring. From there, we decided to move forward. He set up shop, was extremely organized and thoughtful to keep the area clean and dust free. The finished work is excellent! Not a single error or mishap. Sergey was professional, accommodating, and a true craftsman. I am very appreciative that he did not turn away the job given it's size and difficulty."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Portland, OR

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.
