"The installers came Friday afternoon on March 20th and got right to work.   The carpet had been installed three years ago and <br /> had developed several wrinkles which did not look well and could cause tripping down the line. <br /> The job was completed in about an hour and a half and looked like it had just been installed.  They also  repaired  a loop in the carpet that was coming loose.   We were pleased with the results of the carpet stretching and repair. <br /> We will definitely use this service again. <br />"

"Aaron showed us some carpet in the shop and gave good advice on various carpet types. We arranged for him to come to the house to measure up and quote us a price. Unlike the big home improvement stores the estimate was free. The two installers came on time and did an excellent job. We had already removed the old carpet ourselves so that I could remedy some squeeks in the floor before the new carpet was laid. Removing the carpet and disposing of it ourselves saved about $150. Altogether it took about 4 hours for the install. The price was good. We had a previous quote for a similar carpet for about $400 more."

"Very satisfied with this work.  Good carpet/flooring  selection.  After color choice, another similar carpet of better quality at similar cost was suggested (with which we agreed). Removed all old carpet and installed new pad and carpet quickly.  Vinyl flooring in utility room looks great with good attention to detail around furnace/water heater.  Rick came out at end of job and inspected/vacuumed rooms.  Great Job! <br />"

"It was a great experience. They were able to come out quickly and lay the carpet the day after I picked the it out. They were very professional, had a nice selection and the work came in on price. They were informative and gave suggestions on the best options for basement carpeting."

"Jacob, the salesman who sold us the carpet, was helpful and informative. It was not a high-pressure pitch. He worked with us as it was difficult to find the proper time to install as we were having painting and woodworking done in our home at the same time. When it did come time to install, the crew that did the installation was fantastic! They were clean, efficient, and did a great job moving around furniture to ensure the carpet was installed properly."

"From the get go, McCool's was professional, helpful and did not try to oversell in any way.  In a recent condo purchase, I needed to have the carpet replaced, and wanted to do so prior to moving in the furniture. McCool's worked with me to educate me about my carpet purchase (while respecting my concerns for budget and not trying to sell me more carpet than I actually needed), schedule a convenient time to have it installed, and having it done promptly and on time. Initially, their prices looked higher than those found at other big box carpet retailers, but when it was explained that the price shown included installation, carpet padding, and haul away of the old carpet, they were on par with other resellers and the work done was fantastic. I would recommend completely. <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Elwood, IN

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.
