"Scheduled the service in advance for a morning I was off work. Waited at home before doing other errands. Did not show up, and when I called the company said none of their workers came in that day. I was frustrated as I had put off doing other things to wait for them, and the dryer was not drying well. Eventually the owner called me and came out himself that afternoon. He still charged full price, but from what I could tell did a good job."

" Project manager, Scott Lamareoux, is outstanding and honest. I would NOT use this provider unless he is the manager - and I know what subcontractor I would insist on them using, too.  <br> <br>The roofing job was led by a subcontractor, Philip Lucas, and was nothing short of superior. I learned later, from another company that also uses Mr Lucas, that he has an outstanding reputation installing metal roofs and that I could have saved a bundle (about $2500) getting him through this other contractor. (Mr Lucas only works as a subcontractor so you have to ask for him specifically.) <br> <br>The conversion of my detached garage was a near disaster (though it ended satisfactorily). The estimate was about $2800 more than a competitor's estimate, but because we knew the Picket family through a church connection, we went with them. Pickett has no real direct labor employees, evidently, and everyone they use is whoever costs the less to do a project. (I believe in capitalism and have no problem with this so long as the work is done correctly.) The project was supposed to be four weeks with a handshake to try to get it done in three weeks before a holiday. The first subcontractor didn't order enough concrete and didn't prep the structure appropriately (and as agreed in the estimate) to where even I knew it was going to flood with any rain.  When I tried to suspend the project to get someone to come out and look at my concern, someone (other than Scott) from Pickett came out and said it'd be fine - but as predicted, the day after they "finished" the first time (4 weeks), it rained and the whole place flooded. With no way to drain, mold started right away. After three or four attempts to "save" the work done and fend off more flooding from rain, Scott came out and suggested French drains. A group came out and dug a ditch and put gravel in - not exactly a French drain. So, of course, it flooded again.  With a suggestion to try a deeper (real) French drain, I said no because I knew that wouldn't work long term. I insisted they build a barrier wall or build up the floor to an appropriate height. Scott thought the barrier wall was the best option, but I was charged extra for it. Who was the "A Team" they called in to fix it all? Mr. Lucas and his son who during this time had put on our roof. If he'd been the subcontractor on the detached garage conversion from the start, I'm convinced there would have been no problems. There were other little things that made the whole project stressful. Now, had I not realized and trusted that Scott was a "man of his word," which he is, I just don't believe it would have ever been resolved satisfactorily. In the end, a 3-4 week project was complete in just over 3 months. <br> <br>in the end, it all worked out and I have a new office, but it wasn't, by any stretch of the imagination, a smooth experience. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>"

"Sales and purchase went fine.  They installed on the days they said they would.  However, the installation is terrible.  Tiles are not straight and aligned, grout widths vary.  Door jambs were not prepared properly leaving large gaps for grout to be packed in.  Two pieces of tile at the door threshold were installed with different grout widths.  The tile is not level with some pieces high and some low.  I have grout adhesive all over my garage floor.  They washed out the grout adhesive buckets in my front yard leaving adhesive in the grass. I believe the tile installer was Eddy.  Billy came to do the grout installation.  He expressed disappointment with the tile installation.  He did what he could do.  I have left a message for the Owner of company to call me...he has not.  I am not seeking repairs because I do not want the room disassembled again nor miss the time from work to be there for them to replace it.  I am wanting others to be aware of this so they get the right installer."

"Part of my roof needed to be repaired. Mr. Smith diagnosed the problem, proposed alternative solutions, and made a recommendation. We accepted his proposal, and he had a crew at my place the next day. It took about 3 days. The men he sent were polite and efficient. They arrived promptly, worked diligently, and cleaned up afterwards. The quality of the work is excellent, and I would recommend this firm."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in West Blocton, 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.
