Can I install carpet myself?

<div>While it’s possible to install carpet yourself, it’s best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/carpet-installation/">local carpet installer</a> to ensure it’s done correctly and safely. Before installing carpet yourself, check whether the manufacturer’s warranty will remain intact. Many manufacturer’s warranties won’t cover the cost of materials under the warranty if it wasn’t installed by a pro. In addition, you should only install carpet yourself if you’re familiar with the tools required and if the installation is straightforward, not involving things such as floor vents or stairs. </div>

How do I keep my new carpet clean?

<div>Keeping your new carpet clean is vital to extending its longevity. Vacuuming regularly—at least once a week—can help remove dirt, debris, and pet hair. Instead of waiting, treating stains as they appear helps keep your carpet fibers looking fresh. Remember to blot rather than rub, rubbing will only make the stain larger. It’s ideal to hire a professional carpet cleaning service to conduct a deep cleaning of your carpets a few times per year. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-carpet-cleaning-cost.htm">cost of professional carpet cleaning</a> is $180 on average, which can help remove tough stains, draw out hidden dust and allergens, and eliminate odors. </div>

What are the different types of carpets?

<div>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-types-carpet-fibers.htm">different types of carpets</a> for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:<ul><li>Fiber: Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic. </li><li>Pile type: Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.</li><li>Pile height: Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.</li><li>Density: Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other. </li></ul></div>

How long does carpet last?

<div><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Carpets can last</a> between five and 15 years. The longevity of your carpet is dependent on a few factors, including its type, cushion, fibers, and amount of foot traffic. The type of carpet you have paired with the material impacts its life span tremendously and the foot traffic it endures.If your carpet is 20 years or older, replace it soon to avoid potential odors and overly-worn spots. You should consider replacing it sooner if it has stains, water damage, smelly odor, matting, or color loss.</div>

How much does carpet installation cost?

<div>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">cost to install carpet</a> is $1,780 on average for 330 square feet, the size of an average living room. This cost could range from $200 to $5,000, depending on the amount of carpet, material, and type of carpet. If you need 500 square feet of carpet, it’ll cost $1,500 to $5,500, while 1,000 square feet of carpet costs $3,000 to $11,000. Polyester is one of the more affordable options, ranging from $1 to $3 per square foot. Wool is a more luxurious option, ranging from $4 to $20 per square foot. </div>

"Terrible. He broke a valve resulting in a flooded bathroom floor and left an open, leaking pipe that dripped into the basement through an open hole. My family is still without a toilet in that bathroom. The shower basin was the wrong size, so he was going to cut studs near electrical wiring to make it fit. I said that I wanted a Toto toilet. He bought a cheap brand for $150, a brand I have never heard of. We found the receipt in the bathroom. He had many reasons as to why he kept getting detained, one because he said he needed more money. The contract stated 50 percent at signing, another 25 percent upon completion of demo, and the final 25 percent on project completion. I paid him $4,550 on 12/4/2024, CASH. I paid another $1,500 on 12/21/2024 CASH, and $766 on 1/17/2025 CASH. He refused to work unless I paid him on 12/21/2024 because he said he had completed the bathroom demo, and according to the contract, $2,275 was required at completion of bathroom gutting, but the gutting was incomplete with mounds of insulation on the floor and the dumpster was still in our driveway. Even after I explained that the gutting was not complete until all debris was removed and the dumpster was gone, I still paid him, but I did this because he refused to work without this payment. When he began working again, contract specifications were not met. He continued not to show up for work, each time with an excuse, sick children, sick wife, car broke down, etc. I have never heard of a contractor who did not own a truck, but he did not. There were many warning signals, no business cards etc., but I gave him the benefit of the doubt because he had two young children. The contract was signed 12/4/2024 and I terminated his services on 2/11/2025, after 3 months without a toilet, shower, sink, etc. He was angry and threatened to sue me for breach of contract, but the more chances I gave him, the more I realized he had no clue what he was doing. Per your rating below, please clarify your scale, is 1 the best and 5 the worst? I can’t provide a rating with a clear understanding of your rating system. In the end, all he completed was the bathroom demolition. I can live with him keeping $1500 for that, even though it could have been done for much less. I would like a refund of $4,550 as he didn’t complete any work other than the demo and didn’t purchase materials that fit our bathroom requirements. Note: he is going to contest that he did spend money on supplies such as bathroom pipe pieces, toilet, shower enclosure, even though they were the wrong size. He took them from our work site. I pulled thousands of dollars from my retirement account, money that I believed would have resulted in a nice bathroom. My family has endured hardship without the bathroom, and I have been dealing with tremendous stress as a result. It is also taking me extra time to prepare this document for you, time that I need for more important priorities such as my health."

"He came out to give us an estimate on redoing our deck on a Monday. We were told we would receive an email with the estimate by Friday. After a week, I texted the guy that came to our house just to ask about the estimate and I gave him my email in case he needed it again.

He then said that he would Send it over that night as soon as he got back to the house. Unfortunately we never received an estimate."
