"From the moment we walked into The Floor Store Randy bent over backwards to help us find the right tile and carpet for our lake house. There was never any pressure and he allowed us to take any samples we wanted with us to compare on site. Everything he did was timely and professional and the installers he sent out were some of the best we have ever worked with and this is our 5th house. I can't say enough about how positive the experience was working with Randy and his team."

"Last year we had new windows and outside fencing installed by the, and quot;otherand quot; home improvement store. It was one big headache!! They aplogized by offering us a 10% discount on our next purchase. Really? So for this year's home project we decided to go with Home Depot. We had laminate flooring and carpeting installed. Both installs were done quickly and most importantly they were done correctly the first time! The contractors were courteous and they cleaned up after themselves. During the installs they kept us informed about the install and pointing out things that we should know. We will use Hoem Depot again for home improvemnts. <br />"

"Enchantment Carpet technician arrived on time, worked quickly, and did an excellent job of repairing the carpet. He used a section of carpet leftover from original installation and it is almost impossible to tell where he "pieced" it in. Excellent job!"

"Ray's did a great job with both my carpet and vinyl plank flooring.  I solicited many bids for this work and Ray's price for vinyl plank flooring was (by far) the best and the initial carpet bid was pretty good too, but I had better offers.  However, Laura did a great job price matching my other bid and I was pleased to use them for the entire job.  The end product looked fabulous. <br>I was initially put off by the long lead time quoted to me.  However, when I told Laura I was in a hurry she put her foot on the gas and made the job happen in less than a week.  Overall, I am pleased to have chosen Ray's. <br> <br> <br>"

"The owner, staff and installers at Floorscapes were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this company. Just knowing that if there was an issue, the owner assured me they would make it right was comforting. Everything went well and we are enjoying our flooring. No more carpet!"

"We had somebody come in and clean the carpet cause were getting ready for someone to arrive. There was a pet and we tried really hard to get it cleaned out ended up not being to so ended up replacing the carpet and the padding and everything. He helped us get a really good deal on a new carpet and there's something else that we really liked about him but he did help us, pointed us to a place where we will be able to get a really good deal on the carpet. I've haven't worked with many carpet care people but I think he gave us a pretty good deal."

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Albuquerque, NM

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.
