Walters Fine Carpentry has been in business for 40 years-20 years in the triangle & surrounding areas. We specialize in bathroom remodeling and ceramic tile.

"This job did not go well from the start. Stephen could not provide the names of any clients who would allow me to view his previous work, but I decided to proceed because he said that he was skilled enough to do the carpentry, plumbing, and tile setting. The demolition work was carried out by his assistant, a very young (late teens, early 20s) man with a sledge hammer and without proper supervision. He destroyed most of the drywall adjacent to and near the tile that was being removed, necessitating major drywall replacement, which we had to pay for. At the same time, the trim around the windows was so badly damaged that we have to replace it. He also started destroying the cabinet that I wanted to keep, in spite of me saying so 3 times. Finally, he chipped the corner off the bathtub that, again, I had emphasized would be reused. This will cost me $600-$800 to repair. The repair work to the floor and some of the lower wall was completed reasonably well, but there were squeaks in the floor that we had to tell him to go back and brace. He argued that squeaks in the subfloor would not matter once cement board was installed, but we disagreed. He recommended that we remove and replace an exterior wall because of water damage, but we solicited advice from two other professionals who said that the wall could be repaired in place. Stephen wanted to argue with this decision even though we were adamant. Meanwhile, he wasn't planning to rebuild the adjacent wall even though it had worse water damage. He ended up making the repairs that we instructed him to do. The bathtub that was removed was centered in an alcove, but he said that he couldn't reinstall it in the center of the space, even though I pointed out that it had been centered before. Stephen said that there was a problem with moving the water lines for the shower to the wall that I wanted and that he would have to take the lines up under the tub and through a gang of studs to accomplish this. The new plumber moved the lines without any problems like Stephen had seen, and told us that he had capped off the water lines improperly, costing us extra money for parts we didn't need. The insulation in the exterior walls was installed with wire hangers, compressing the insulation. The insulation had gaps at the sides and the top/bottom from being cut sloppily. When we said that it had to be redone, he argued with us, so we terminated our relationship. (Go to Owens Corning YouTube to see the proper way to install insulation in walls.) The new carpenter that we hired had to redo some of the work because of poorly cut boards and lack of bracing. He also finished the frame to center the bathtub when it is reinstalled. We replaced at least twice as much sheetrock as we should have needed to because of the excessive damage. Stephen worked on this job for two weeks, but only accomplished about three days' worth of work, which made his hourly rate quite high. His general response to our concerns about his methods and quality was that he had done it right, even though we both are experienced with general construction and were not trying to cut costs."

We have more that 25 years in the tile business dedicated to professional service, quality, and trustworthy results. Our passion translates into a positive working relationship that reflects the true secret to our success: we care about your home as much as you do. We love to see you happy! 1. We listen. No one knows your vision better than you, and we want to make it a success. One of the best ways to ensure your goal is to listen to what you have to say, helping you clarify and define your vision for your project. Together, we find the perfect balance of design and installation to meet your unique needs. 2. Commitment to Excellence. We believe that a passionate commitment to excellence is crucial to survival in the highly competitive industry. It’s also crucial for the ongoing success of our business. That’s why we take passionate pride in each finished project and are constantly looking for ways to improve the way we serve our customers. 3. Concerned. Personal attention during every face of the project. We care about you and believe that the final look of the project should reflect the business distinctive attitudes and beliefs. 4. We are happy when you are! We keep working with you until you are completely satisfied. We believe in honest, open communication and meeting your expectations is one of our primary goals.

"Floor looks beautiful! Reliable installers, who accommodated every request. They showed up before 8 every day and worked hard to get this difficult job done as quickly as possible. We requested a Versailles pattern, and it looks gorgeous! They were even able to repair cracked tiles in 2 other bathrooms without damage to surrounding tiles. They use a system to level each tile with the adjacent tiles. Looks better in real life, because pictures are a little dark. Note that they don't replace the floor trim, touch up paint or re-install toilets. The quarter round part of our trim was difficult to remove without breaking because the seams were caulked. So the quarter round isn't back on yet and the paint hasn't yet been touched up in these pictures. But even with the toilet removal they added toilet water solidifying crystals (ie. Oatey LiquiLock) so water wouldn't spill. Thank you, Michael and team!"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Wake Forest, NC

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.
