"We added a full bathroom in our garage and an additional 16 ft wall with an interior door. The project went well and we’re very happy with the work that was completed. Bob is an amazing person to work with as is his wife Laura. They made the process easy from planning & permitting, to choosing the right materials and layout. Everything went as expected. Bob went above and beyond to insure the job was completed on time as we had a specific timeframe that we needed the job to be completed. We would hire Bob again for another project in the future. Thanks so much Bob!"

"We unfortunately had a horrible experience with Empire Today Philly. From our first appointment the sales associate, Nizar Alwarasneh, could not answer any questions about how the hardwood floors were finished or how the installation process would work. He was more interested in giving me a big show of on how he could get me such a "great" price than listening to me. Because of this, he assured me the hardwood could be installed on concrete slab. It cannot but he either did not know or did not listen to the question. Our installers showed up a week later and knew immediately it was not possible to install in our house. After 4 calls and hours on the phone with Customer Service, I was assured a manager, Edwin Maldonado, would call me within 24 hours to assign me a new sales associate and to help correct the mistake. When I had not heard from him 24 hours later, I called Customer Service again only to learn that Nizar is the only sales associate in my region and that Edwin would likely take 3 days to get back to me. Within the next 3 days I called Edwin 4 times and left 2 voicemails. I still have never heard back from him. I called Customer Service again and they again assured me a new manager, Michael Onorato, would call back within 24 hours. I have never heard from him either despite calling and leaving voicemails. Against my better judgement, I had a second appointment with Nizar. It was clear to me immediately that he did not tolerate being questioned at all. I don't know if it was embarrassment over his mistake or what but he was incredibly rude. He loudly yelled at me, saying I should respect him because he is older than I am when I asked him to explain how he was coming up with the pricing, which was completely arbitrary. He also could not explain the difference between engineered hardwood and solid hardwood - he called a manager, Shawn Wilkinson, to help. By the end of the call, Shawn was supposed to call me back within 24 hours. I never received a call. When we finally decided to cancel, Customer Service told me they would submit the request and one of the managers (Edwin, Shawn, or Michael) would call in 1-3 business days to talk through options. I had zero confidence I would hear back so thankfully Customer Service expedited my cancellation. I should receive a refund within 3-5 business days... Subsequently have spoken to other Empire Today Philly customers who reiterated a similar experience, particularly the sleazy car sales person approach to the initial sales associate assessment. Absolutely would not recommend and will posting this review through multiple outlets."

FAQs for carpet repair, refasten, or stretch projects in Reading, PA

Removing a rug costs around $0.40 to $0.50 per square foot. This includes the fee for a contractor to roll up the rug and haul it away in a vehicle for disposal or recycling. If they need to move furniture, they might charge an additional $0.25 to $0.30 per square foot of furniture.

If your carpet has minor damage—like a single area that requires stretching, patching, or cleaning—it might be less expensive to pay for carpet repair than remove and replace it. Repairing carpet costs around $210 per project.

The cost of carpet cleaning is about $190 for a three-bedroom home, so it’s a good idea to have your carpet cleaned at least once a year. But most carpeting only lasts 10 years. If your carpet is nearing the end of its life span, it might be more cost-effective to remove and replace your carpet than to clean and repair it. The average cost to install a new carpet is about $1,800.

Search our directory of carpet removal companies and services to find an affordable, screened contractor near you. All HomeAdvisor listings are vetted, reviewed, and rated by homeowners, so you can be sure to find a local pro qualified for your project. Get at least three quotes to compare prices and the timeline for your project.

Commercial carpet removal usually costs on the lower end of the carpet removal price range, around $1.10 per square foot or even less. Carpet installation contractors often offer discounted rates for larger projects, like commercial carpet removal and installation. Similarly, you might be able to negotiate a lower residential carpet removal cost if the carpet is pulled up throughout your entire home.

Most cities accept old carpets as bulk trash, but you may need to schedule a special pickup and prepare the carpet properly. Remove any nails or glue residue, cut the carpet into manageable pieces, and roll and secure them. Alternatively, you can take your old carpet to a local recycling center for a small fee, where it can be processed and repurposed.

Yes, you can remove carpet yourself if you're ready for a labor-intensive task. DIY carpet removal requires heavy lifting and tools like utility knives, pliers, and pry bars. The process is generally straightforward but time-consuming for stapled-down carpet. If your carpet is glued down or you're worried about damaging the subfloor, hiring a professional is best to ensure the job is done safely and efficiently.
