"Scott was prompt, reliable and gave me the lowest cost compared to carpet stores and big box stores. I would definitely hire him again when I need to buy and install carpet."

"In need of new carpet and kitchen flooring I called Molyneaux. Having dealt with a big box store in the past I knew I didn't want that again. It was truly the most pleasant experience I could have wished for starting with Kim in scheduling to Steve the sales rep. The new carpet is exactly what I wanted and looks fabulous. The luxury vinyl planks in the kitchen are great. I highly recommend Molyneaux. Stellar customer service!!!"

"Leone flooring took care of carpet re-stretching in my new home over Memorial Day weekend. Not only did Jim squeeze me into his busy schedule to accommodate my move-in schedule, he and his co-worker were on-time (even a couple minutes early) and got right to work. The carpet was vacuumed and all scraps removed, leaving me with carpets ready for the cleaner. The re-stretching turned out great, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire Jim for any future flooring needs."

"<p>We have known Jim for over 20 years and have had Jim do flooring in all of the homes that we have lived in. He has done linoleum, carpet, hard wood. He even designed a carpet for a living room using 2 different colors years ago. Everything that he does is perfection! EVERYTHING! He even vacuums the carpet when he is finished installing it. There is never a sign that he was in your home, he is meticulous.</p> <p>This time, we asked Jim to do installation of hard wood and carpet while we were on vacation. We came home to a beautiful job done once again and again....not a spec of dirt anywhere! </p> <p>This is a family business that cares about their customer...from Kathy ( Jim's wife) in the showroom) to Jim and his son on the job, you will never find service and perfection matched.</p> <p><br /></p> <br />"

FAQs for carpet installation projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
