"Yancy's is very price competitive. Their tile selection is not that big, but we found what we liked, and everything went very smoothlly and in a timely fashion.  Their materail prices are comparable to Master Tile, but their install prices were signifanctly less than Master TIle.  I have used Yancy's for carpet in the past.  This was the first time I had used them for tile.  I would use them again. <br />"

"Incredibly well! Very happy with everything: from selecting the actual flooring; to placing a special order; to the final installation. Selecting Creative Carpet was the best choice we could've made, and second only to the floor we had installed. It's beautiful!!! :)"

"I visited Tudor Floors at their Silhavy Road location where they have a huge selection of carpet and other flooring to suit every budget. Took me five minutes to choose exactly what I wanted, good quality carpet at a fair price. A day or so later owner Mauri came to my home to measure, explain the installation procedure and answer any questions. <br /> Installation was arranged approximately two weeks later. The installation team of two brothers arrived exactly as scheduled, worked really well together, removed the old carpet, checked and cleaned the floor underneath and installed the new carpet. They worked hard, fast and professionally and took the smelly old carpet with them to re-cycle. <br /> I had to actually tone down this review in case readers thought I had some personal connection to Tudor Floors - none. <br /> I chose them after careful consideration, research and review of other companies. They do a good job and deserve their reputation. <br />"

"We had extensive damage done to our basement rugs because of the wet winter and decided it was time to change the carpeting. We received such a great price and service from them that we decided to do the entire upstairs as well. They have a great support department, will always ensure you are completely satisfied and make you feel that they really care."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Schererville, IN

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.
