"This was our second time to use Peoples so we had high expectations...we weren't disappointed. They are the best! Robert and Julie really cared about our floors, from choosing the tile to the shade of grout they used. When the tile I wanted was out of stock, Robert found an available one that was even better! The installers were great, friendly and efficient. When we noticed some tiny chips in a few of the tiles they came back and replaced those tiles right away! They are perfectionists who stand by their work. I would trust them with any project."

"They were punctual and spot treated the carpets in the various areas. They worked quickly and thoroughly and were done in about two hours. I asked that they retouch a couple of areas which they did promptly."

"Lone Star Carpets installed all my flooring and shower tiles for multiunit homes in south Austin. My sincere appreciation is well-deserved to Mr. Tony Rodriguez! He is an experienced, well educated, well-informed, a professional and quite personable individual. Tony is the contractor working with my excellent builder, Truitt Group- Mr. Logan Leen. Tony himself was directly involved in the project from the beginning: getting all the necessary measurements, ordering martials, following up with the installation crew, and making the final inspections of the installations. He also left me with the plenty leftover tiles and material for possible future repairs or renovation!! Tony certainly gives his full attention and care one will need during a home construction! Thank you Tony. My appreciations of his installation crew: Mr. David Romero installed almost all flooring and shower tiles. He is efficient and very conservative with material usage, yet installs quality work. He is very hard-working individual and makes sure to get the job done and done wright! Mr. Juan is the crew lead as well as a great installer. He leads the group by example and makes sure all works are done correctly. Mr. Roger is a good installer and seems enjoys his work and is just happy person. I am very pleases with the service and material Lone Star Carpets provided me for all my homes, specially Tony's care and attention to my project. Mehrdad Vatani"

"I had a very positive experience working with Kris. She helped me with the project of getting my guest house fully furnished and ready for guests in a two month timeframe. What was wonderful about working with Kris was that I felt that everything was taken care, managed, and delivered smoothly and elegantly. Kris was also able to help with some bonus elements such as wall painting, bench staining, window drapery, and cookware. Very helpful."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in San Marcos, TX

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.
