"We are customers for life. Greg is a kind, funny, honest man who helped us pick out the right grade of carpet for our home and then quoted us a price significantly less than the big box home improvement stores. We had to reschedule the installation several times due to various circumstances, and he accommodated our needs each and every time without complaint. Danny and Nicco were wonderful to have in our home. They are artists. Really. They did a great job on the installation, clean up, furniture moving (and replacement) and answering any questions we had. We could not be more pleased with our experience from top to bottom and from quote to installation to clean up."

"Saturday July 18th Jose Garrido and his partner from ProGreen Carpet cleaned my carpets and did an amazing job. They were on time for the appointment and were very thorough in their examination and pre-treatment. In the end, the carpets, and especially the stairs were cleaner than when we moved in! They do amazing work and I highly recommend their service. I would absolutely hire them again."

"Not that Marc and Dennis need another 5 star review but I cannot resist. After they leave, the WOW factor sets in. I have used their services for many years and every time is the same. Two great guys show up exactly on time (how do they do that?!), deeply and thoroughly clean carpet with superior equipment and process, and leave me beyond thrilled with the result. And all at a very reasonable cost. No one who has used their services would ever consider using anyone else. Thanks, you guys!"

"The staff at the Persian Carpet is fantastic! They are incredibly knowledgeable (PhD's!), friendly, helpful, have high integrity, and go the extra mile. Their store is THE place to go for a great selection of beautiful, high quality wool and silk rugs from all over the world. I enjoyed doing business with them on several occasions (purchasing rugs, rug cleaning, rug appraisal), and highly recommend them."

"We had our wooden floor refinished by Green Step. They did a wonderful job. The owner was very knowledgeable and responsive. The team did a great job sanding, staining, and adding footboard. They also cleaned well before they left. The price wasn't the lowest I got, but for the quality of the work I'm very happy. Will definitely use them again if I need more flooring work in the future."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Sanford, NC

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.
