"Went to Lowery's fFooring Services showroom and selected the tile and carpet we wanted from samples at the store. We paid half down and the balance after the job was finished. Although extremely busy prior to open house events in Waco, Mike Lowery was able to meet our deadlines for installation of the tile within 1 week of purchase and then the carpet during the following week. The tile was installed over two consecutive days and the carpet during one day. Each of the installation crews were very maticulous and professional. They moved heavy furniture completely out of each room and put it back in place with no problems. We are extremely pleased with both the quality of the product and the installation. We will use them again if we ever have any flooring needs in the future. <br />"

"It took a day to do all the prep work to install the tile.  My husband and I removed the majority of the furniture before they came. I had taken down curtains and wall hangings.  They had to remove tile by the back and front doors.  They laid tile in my family room, kitchen and utility room.  Tile was laid at an angle. They did a marvelous job laying tile. Every piece fit perfectly. They moved the stove and  fridge. We only had one afternoon and night with no access to the fridge. When I indicated that I wanted to paint the utility room, they grouted the tile and added the quarter molding at the base of the floor boards first so I could paint over the weekend before the washer, dryer, and sink were put back in place. When they laid the entry way tile, Joe did an amazing job of creating a very stunning entry design. The laminate laying went quickly. <br /> I thought Creative Carpets and Interiors were very methodical in their workflow.  They finished one section at a time and I was able to begin putting my rooms back together as they finished.  <br /> I gave Creative Carpets and Interiors a "B" for price as they were the more expensive of the two places from whom we requested a quote. Even though they were more expensive, I think it was worth the money. The work was top-notch and they were very clean workers.  They did not leave a mess as they worked and had everything picked up and stored at the end of the workday. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Waco, TX

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.
