"It went very well working with Shawn.  There was a small delay due to circumstances out of there control, but Shawn made sure everything went well.  Carpet installers were very nice, they did an incredible job, very neat, quiet and quick.  Shawn is really nice to work with, I would highly recommend him.  Oh and the carpet, really really nice carpet at an amazing price. <br />"

"<p>Sales staff were excellent.  Floor removal team was different team from installation team and they did not seem as informed about the overall job agreement. </p> <p>Installation team was very good.  No one returned (like a supervisor), though, to check on finished job.  Overall, very satisfied with the job.</p> <br />"

"They were really good. They were here when they said they would be. They worked steady until all of the carpet and tile was in. They moved my furniture and replaced it, which was nice that I didn't have to fool with that. They had to order the carpet and it took a week for it to come in and then they installed it a couple of days later. The price was reasonable because he gave me nice thick padding. I am going to have them come back later in the year to do another room of carpet."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Princeton, LA

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.
