CARPET INSTALLATION

Before Installation

If your goal is a smooth & satisfying installation, knowing what to expect can go a long way. Here’s a brief checklist of things to do or consider before your Carpet Factory installers arrive:

  • We’ll determine in advance how to handle the removal & disposal of your existing floors. You can minimize dust by vacuuming your old carpet before it’s removed.
  • We’ll also determine in advance how your furniture will be moved. You should remove any fragile items, draperies, wall hangings & more as part of this process.
  • We’ll measure your door clearances to determine if your new carpeting will be thicker than your existing floor, and whether this will cause your door bottoms to rub. If so, we may need to have your doors shaved down to allow damage-free clearance.
  • If you’re planning to repaint your room or remodel any other aspects of your room, do so before new carpet is installed. This will help to prevent drips & other damage to your carpet.

During Installation

With proper installation, your new carpet will look good now & for many years to come. Our team will take the following steps:

  • Prepare the surface to make sure it is clean, dry, and level.
  • Put up tack strips & lay carpet pad.
  • Line up seams, which is simpler for solid carpet & more complex for patterns.
  • Stretch the carpet, a work-intensive step that requires our professionals to carefully comply with industry standards.
