"The house is 16 years old, cement slab, and I am the original owner.  Alma, Anita, and Jeff (the shop owner) were all great to work with.  They helped me educate myself regarding flooring types and ranges of quality, critical to success for major purchases.  They also helped me choose colors and materials that complement each other to ensure that I would be happy with the result.  I secured bids from other companies as well, and Gold River Carpet One was the most competitive and provided the best quality products and best customer service. <br /> The stone and carpet installers both finished the jobs in one day, working into the evening with my agreement, and they did the best jobs.  Original estimates were 1.5 days for each, and I was happy they completed the work in one day. <br /> The engineered wood installer did a great job "salting" the darker pieces in with the lighter pieces.  The engineered wood is a lovely blond maple, and there is a lot of variation in the coloring.  It looks great next to the oak cabinets in the kitchen.   It took quite some time to decide on the wood because I prefer lighter floors and current fashion is for dark wood so the selection was more limited.  <br /> I chose high quality products because the cost of installation usually exceeds cost of materials. <br /> approximate cost, including installation: <br /> engineered wood floor in kitchen, dining room and hall $3,900 <br /> travertine stone floors in 2 bathrooms and laundry $1,600 <br /> wall to wall carpet in living room, 3 bedrooms, closets, hall, and master vanity $7,400 (included Temperpedic carpet pad) <br />"

"David, a salesman for Simas Floors, visited my home before the work was done to see exactly what my hardwood floors needed to be pretty again.  He is very personable and professional.  Jay, Chris, and Robert, who refinished my hardwood floors, did an excellent job; they were prompt, professional, thorough, and stirred up an incredibly small amount of dust.  They explained the advantages of using a water or an oil-based finish; I opted for a water-based polyurethane because a catalyst can be added to the last coat (in this case, the fourth coat) that will extend the life of the finish to 25-40 years.  Although I could have hired someone else at a lower cost, I am confident that I now have the best refinish money can buy, and I won't be moving the furniture out of the rooms for the rest of my life!"

"Very friendly and professional. The owner walked me through everything he was going to do and explained how each chemical and piece of equipment worked. My elderlly dog just passed away and I thought I might have to replace my carpet. I felt as if I got more than just my carpets shampooed. I got a deep cleaning and they look like new! So happy that I got someone as knowledgable as the owner of this company! I will defenately use them again and recommend them highly. "

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Sacramento, CA

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.
