"I have been in the carpet industry since the early 1970's and have been employed as everything from a carpet installers apprentice to a carpet store manager. Consequently I have been in and around a myriad of different carpet businesses encompassing all aspects of the industry. I have been using Vogel's exclusively for all of my carpet purchases for nearly 10 years and have never had a problem with their services. I have found Vogel's to be of the highest integrity, well organized, communicative and a pleasure to deal with."

"It was easy to make appointment They came on time A pleasant gentleman. Quiet and quick work The carpet was hardly wet when he finished (does that mean a good job?) There were no huge stains to work on. The stairway was left with dark edges. I called the company to come back and they cleaned the stairs again. These dark edges are typical for older carpets and can't be removed"

"Carpet To Go handled our carpet selection and installation, through the Costco program. We were extremely pleased with the entire process, from selecting the carpet, to the fast scheduling, and excellent installation which was completed in less than 2 days. The price was very competitive, and the installers were professional, clean and courteous. We would not hesitate to recommend Carpet To Go."

"Dennis White, aka My Flooring Guy, may be new to Angie, but he’s been in the floor business for a long time- and is a real pro. I needed carpet installed in just one room- a job that might have been too small for most. But My Flooring Guy did the work quickly, cleanly and at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend him."

"It went very well. They arrived right on time and got started right away. In about two hours they were done and the carpets looked so much better. We will definitely use them again and refer our friends and family to them too."

"These guys were amazing! Our sythetic fiber carpet was badly stained just from high traffic walking on it with bare feet over and over. I honestly did not think that they would be able to get the stains out of this very light colored carpet but they did. Apparently the company is owned by two best friends, so it is kind of family owned. Anyway they basically did the impossible, and made the carpet look like new again. Thank you Smith Bros!"

"We purchased a 10 yr old home and hired Big Dollar to clean and restretch approximately 2,000 sf of carpet including stairs, and pressure wash a portion of the driveway. The family room carpet was badly soiled (shoe and coffee stains) and in need of restretch. Big Dollar did a great job on the carpets and we would definately use them again. Kris and Sam were very professional and easy to work with."

"The experience was pretty good overall. The employee who came out to do the estimates was a bit flaky. He wanted to show us how well his method works, so he cleaned a 2’x3’ area in the middle of the living room. The spot looked really fabulous, but it was right in the middle of our living room, so I kind of had to get it taken care of. We had to reschedule several times, and it was hard to get a hold of him. Once we finally did set up an appointment, the two technicians that came out seemed very young and inexperienced. I called the employee who came out to do the estimate, and he assured me that they would do a good job. They really did do a good job! I ended up going with the more expensive package, since our carpets were very dirty. I thought their price was very fair for the quality of the work that they did. My carpets looked like brand new. A few spots did come back, and they came back to re-do the spots. They also lightly touched up everything else in the same room. Ultimately, I will use them again, because I’ve never had anybody do such a good job on the carpets before!"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Tacoma, WA

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.
