"Sales, quote and overall installation went well and the floor looks very nice. My only objection has to do with an installation detail that went poorly and that's the reason for the B ratings. An unforeseen condition became apparent when the carpet was removed. The photo show that a wall had been removed and the location where the wall had been removed was patched with wood that didn't quite come up to the floor grade. The vinyl flooring was placed directly over the gap and as a result, when you walk on the floor in this area, the flooring flexes and it is quite noticeable. My comments relate to how this was handled. The installers, in general, did a fine job but they never addressed the gap issue with me or as far as I know, their manager. The installers are paid to install, apparently blind to consequences, and not problem solve; that's the issue. I didn't become aware of this problem until the job was nearly complete when I walked into the room to see the progress. I'm sure something could have been done to fill the crack and / or lessen the flex. It would have been nice for them to inform me (I was around all day) or at least let me know they discussed the issue with their manager. Perhaps nothing could have been done or perhaps something could have been done. At least I could have made an informed decision."

"Our purple carpet had about 100 urine stains from previous dogs and our own. The specialist, Robert, matched to color and treated every spot. If we didn't know where they were, we'd never know they spots had been there. Perfect job!"

"Better Built Basements LLC renovated my basement this past summer, installing a full bathroom, bedroom (with egress window), office and finished common area. The project went very smoothly, with great communication and follow-up. Just about everything was done to spec and on the correct timeline. At the beginning of the project we were provided a schedule, and they met almost every milestone; the entire project was completed on time, including pulling the necessary permits and passing all town inspections. We had a few change orders during the project, and they were able to work them in and still complete the project within the original time frame. The communication was phenomenal. For each phase of the project we knew who was coming to the house when, who would be in charge if there was any issue, and who we could escalate to if there were concerns. I would highly recommend them for any project. Months later we are as thrilled with the basement as we were the day it was completed. Thanks so much to the team for our wonderful finished basement."

"Excellent. Called and they gave me an estimate over the phone for approximately 700 sq ft of hardwood flooring install. I was wary about that at first, but there were no hidden costs and in fact refunded a portion for work that was not needed. The cost of installation was very reasonable and done very quickly by just one person. I had doubts that he would get it done in just 2 days, but Claudio was very a professional and hard worker, who went above and beyond to satisfy me. I was shocked at how well the flooring install went and how great it looks. I would highly recommend Eastern CT Flooring and wouldn't hesitate to use them again for other projects. They get a 5 Star rating from me. Thank you,"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Putnam, CT

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.
