"Mr. Richardson has been in the carpet installation business for over 20 years and now runs several installation crews that install new carpet under his supervision. To make my comments short and to the point he is absolutely Marvelous and his price even more marvelous! By using an extremely expensive "stretcher" and slides under the heavy Mission Furniture he straightened out all the folds/wrinkles in approximately 1 hour and the cost of his services prompted me to ask if he was sure that was all he charged? Highly recommend as he and his company are absolutely superb and extremely reasonable in Price!"

"Work was done well and as scheduled.  A couple of pieces of furniture were damaged when moved, but they were repaired to an excellent standard.  "B" grades are because this repair took several months to get completed. <br />"

"The guys did a great job. I had never seen hardwood floor repair on just a few random boards done before but they managed to do it with no damage to the boards around them and their work blends perfectly with the rest of the floor. <br /> Their tile work was very nice also. I liked their professionalism, they kept the areas around them protected and cleaned up after their work. <br />"

"The crew arrived within the given time frame. They were extremely nice and very professional. I knew beforehand that we would have to have a few seams, but Fernando consulted with me as soon as they arrived about the best way to lay the new carpet in order to minimize these and we ended up with fewer than we'd expected. The seams are completely invisible. The crew were very careful with all of our furniture and everything was done just exactly as we wanted it. We did have to have them come back out to install a transition strip in a doorway where we hadn't had one before. I called early on the Friday morning after our installation and the strip was in place by 10:30AM! The new carpet is absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be more pleased! And again, the crew was probably the nicest group of men we've yet had out to our home to do any kind of work for us, and we've had quite a bit done in the past two years. Very, very pleased with Don's Carpet One! <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Trafford, AL

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.
