"My whole experience was very very good. They were helpful in the store; two or three representatives pitched in to help me find the specific carpet I was looking for. They were professional and obviously experienced. They were careful to make sure I got the exact carpet I wanted."

"I needed carpet and vinyl flooring installed in a short period of time, which Empire Today was able to fulfill. I felt that I paid a premium for service on short notice, which I expected. The salesperson was a bit pushy and asked more than once, "do we have a deal?", which felt smarmy. On the day of installation, all went as planned until the vinyl installation was complete. The quarter round was not replaced. When I asked about it, the installer said that "it looks fine without it," which I disagreed with. He offered to put caulk down, which helped, but still did not look like a complete project. I did not like how he dismissed my request. I sent more than one email to Empire Today about this problem, but they did not follow up with me about this issue."

"We have used Bloomington Professional Carpet Cleaners for all of the 23 years we have lived in this house. The carpet was 3 years old when we moved in, and has never been changed. It looks almost brand new. That's partly because the previous owner, who built the house, put in high-quality carpeting. But we attribute most of the reason the carpet has lasted so long to Bloomington Professional Carpet Cleaners. We have had them in twice a year, without fail, and whenever we've needed a special cleaning because of a spill, for example. We cannot recommend them more highly: they are, as the name says, professional. They arrive on time, move whatever furniture needs moving, carefully place barriers underneath the feet of large pieces, and do their work efficiently. And the prices have always been fair. We recommend them to all of our friends. <br />"

"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!"

"They were excellent. I felt they were honest. I felt they gave me a fair price. They came to my house and discussed different carpets and they said that they had remnants that were big enough to do the rooms that I wanted done and that saved me some money. I thought they were very responsible. They've been great. They quality is great. I would recommend them."

"Wallace construction came to my door after seeing shingles missing on my roof. Unlike the fly by night contractors that typically do this approach, Denise was very friendly, had a logo shirt and truck and was very professional. They helped us with our insurance adjuster to pay for a good portion of the new roof when I didn't even realize it was a possibility. They offered great communication which to me is key. Everything was accomplished in a timely and professional manner. Our new roof looks great and definitely improved our curb appeal. Will use for future projects, and I even have a few in mind."

"At the time of IU's homecoming in 2010 my husband wanted to have a mini-reunion brunch at our home, so I had to have the carpets and windows cleaned. My mother and mother-in-law had always used Servicemaster, but they did not even return my calls! I had not joined Angie's list at that time, and was relatively new in Bloomington - so I studied all the ads in the the phone book, then called 2 or 3. Taylor sounded the most organized and professional, and were able to do the work when we needed it done. I was pleased then, though it took a bit longer than I had hoped because one worker had called in sick. I had intended to have the cleaning done again within 2 years or so, but other things kept coming up. Finally, everything started looking REALLY BAD, so I called Taylor again almost exactly 3 years later. They did have me in their computer system, as well as exact details of what they had done, and the charges. Again, they were able to come at a time that was convenient for us. I have fine hair (and fortunately still quite a lot of it), so using hair spray daily is a must - and the Pella window screen in my bathroom gets really gummy. They got that and the other screens completely clean. It was a man and a woman. They were scheduled to arrive at 10:00, and arrived within 10 minutes of that time. I forget exactly when they finished, but it was around midday or very early afternoon. As another reviewer mentioned, the carpets were surprisingly dry when they left, and they did NOT spread out any papers the way carpet cleaners used to do in the old days (they did put little foam blocks under the legs of some of the furniture). I would definitely use them again - because they do a good job, and also because they come when they say they will. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Spencer, 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.
