"I visited the store several times and found Doug (salesman) very pleasant to work with, though I didn't find the right carpet there for my family room. I appreciated Doug's honesty and the knowledge he shared with me concerning the carpet business. I eventually chose a carpet not found in their store, but Doug was able to obtain the same from his supplier and the Flooring Zone installed it within a week. They moved the big pieces of furniture (I had already removed the smaller items from the room), tore out (and removed) the old carpet and pad and installed the new within 2 1/2 hours. Doug and the installation team (Doug's brothers) were all professional and trustworthy. It's now been nearly a week since the work was done, and I have yet to receive a bill; though I'm not worried...they know where I live, ha, ha. I plan on using Doug's team for other rooms in our house within the next few months. <br />"

"We ended up going to another place first, We were going to go with them, ONLY because I didn't know about Marrett....I called my mom who told me to go check this company out. We went and were met by Marian. She was SO patient and educated on what would work for us. She showed us the flooring we ended up going with, BUT, I was being stubborn from Pinteresting too much...Enter my mom, she came with me the second time and pointed out the same flooring Marian showed us....and started the motherly "You won't regret this flooring" And Marian gave me the information on the flooring and I started to fall in love more and more. She let me take it home to see it on our flooring and we love it SO much, once our remodel is done, we will be doing our bedrooms in the same flooring. Yes, it IS a bit more expensive, BUT, I have bought from Lowes and Home Depot my whole life and I've always had issues and ended up spending the same amount with repairs and ripping flooring out to redo it. The extra few bucks on this company (it also depends on your choice, we went higher end) is WORTH IT!!! We are going to be doing our kitchen and we are going there for our counter tops and we are also getting carpet from them in our living room, THAT is how satisfied my husband and I are with this company. DO NOT waste time at Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, etc .Go to a reputable company, Marrett won't disappoint you."

"Mike in sales was great to work with. He did everything to make sure we got our carpet really quick. The installers were 'ok'. Two younger guys that were really chatty with each other, sometimes loud, and they really didn't seem to care what they said. Helped themselves to my restroom which wasn't ok in my book. But, I do realize that good workers are hard to find and it could've been alot worse. I'm happy with the whole process even though I already stepped on a tack strip nail poking through......."

"We couldn't be more pleased with the job Gary Hull Construction, Gary, and his brother Scott did installing doors in our home. Gary was easy to contact, and gave my husband and I a reasonable estimate promptly. They worked with our schedule, arrived when they said they would and were completely professional. We've had several contractors do work around our older home, and the work was always substandard. This is before we found Angie's List! We are so pleased with the quality and attention to detail that went into installing our doors. They listened to our needs and made sure we were satisfied with their work every step of the way. They cleaned up everything as they went along and my house was cleaner when they left than before they started! I will absolutely call them to do all my projects. <br />"

"We enjoyed working with Lakefront Flooring. They were quick in responding to our questions and getting the product installed. We decided to go into their store on W. 12th Street to see the product. The staff was willing to go through product samples with us and answer all of our questions. <br /> We did have a bit of confusion with one part of the installation, which the company followed-up on and completed. At this point we feel that the carpet was laid nicely and looks very beautiful. <br /> Thank you. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Waterford, PA

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.
