"Timely <br /> prompt <br /> the salesman, George was a big help <br /> But, we are living out of town, and I had family ensure all was well. When done, the installers left pieces of carpet and 'strings' of carpet all over. I had to pay to have someone go in and clean up. <br /> When I called, the answer was, "the installers don't carry a vacuum with them". <br /> Maybe they should! <br />"

"I needed to have new carpeting put into my finished basement. I found Carpet Master Plus through Angie's list and am really pleased I want with them. Roman was super responsive and professional. He did an immaculate job with the installation and even went above and beyond adding "Hollywood" style carpeting on the stair for no additional cost. If you're looking for top notch workmanship at a very reasonable price I HIGHLY recommend Carpet Master Plus."

"Our purple carpet had about 100 urine stains from previous dogs and our own. The specialist, Robert, matched to color and treated every spot. If we didn't know where they were, we'd never know they spots had been there. Perfect job!"

"So, I am disappointed that Mr. Van Horn's way of handling customer service problems is to stop communicating. I never complain about bad meals in restaurants, or minor problems, life has bumps in the road. But when I pay thousands of dollars for a carpet and the person is too busy to make it right, well, that's not how I run my business, and I don't think it's a good policy."

"I had the kitchen floor done, I suppose to have the bathroom floor done, I am pleased with the kitchen floor it looks beautiful but when it came to the bathroom floor they told me I needed to get somebody else, they wouldn't do it because they needed a contractor to come out and boost something. so I had to find somebody else to do that and which was another cost for me."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Sandusky, OH

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.
