"Our floors were damaged by the hurricane. The company that did the original repairs, did a horrible job and we had Color Interiors correct the problems. They reinstalled all new flooring. It went really well."

"They do both commercial and residential carpeting and flooring.  They were excellent and I loved everything about them.  They were very professional and very punctual.  They moved my furniture and the service receipt for this was minimal.  They set it back up after they are done exactly the way I wanted them to.  The staff was excellent and pretty efficient.  I would use them again in the future."

"Great! Dennis provided a quick estimate the same day he inspected the job site. His schedule was pretty full, but he was able to work us in within a week of letting him know that we had the materials (ordered windows) for the job. Dennis and Jonathan showed up on time and went to work immediately as promised. Their work is very professional. They kept a very clean environment, using plastic barriers that left very little dust behind--plus they cleaned up after working. They had to cut out openings through our brick to frame out the windows and they matched up the brick and mortar to the original professionally. We would hire them again in a heartbeat. We would recommend this company highly."

"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!"

"CRT assisted in the decisions about flooring in our new home construction. The design representative went above expectations by drawing out our design plans for the tile in all areas of our home and explaining the many different carpet options as well. Erin was extremely knowledgeable about the products the company sells and about installation of the products. Erin was courteous and always answered all of my questions quickly. Erin was not up-selling me on products and truly listened to my design needs and my budget requirements. CRT has all levels of pricing and was below costs of what we found at local big box and home improvement stores."

"<p>I really enjoyed my telephone conversation with Ruth, one of the owners of the company.  She considers Customer Service a high priority which was very evident during our conversation.</p> <p>Clint, our tech who cleaned the chairs was very presentable and had a very pleasant, professional demeanor.  He did a wonderful job cleaning our chairs.  They looked like new when the job was completed.</p> <p>I highly recommend Bella Maison Carpet Cleaning and Restoration to anyone looking for professional, high quality carpet or upholstery cleaning.</p> <p>  </p> <p><br /></p> <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Athens, TX

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.
