How Do You Install Carpet?
Carpet installation is a tricky process; we don't recommend attempting it alone! But don't just take our word for it: here's a brief overview of how we install carpet to understand better the many steps involved.
- Measurement and Assessment | A professional installer will visit the site to measure the area and assess any unique features, such as stairs or irregular room shapes.
- Subfloor Preparation| The existing floor is inspected, and any necessary repairs or adjustments are made. This may include addressing uneven surfaces or fixing subfloor issues.
- Carpet Padding Installation | A quality carpet pad is laid over the subfloor to provide cushioning and support for the carpet. The pad is cut to fit the room's dimensions.
- Carpet Cutting and Seaming| The carpet is then cut to fit the room, taking care to match patterns if necessary. Seams are carefully constructed, and the rug is stretched for a tight fit.
- Installation of Tack Strips| Tack strips are placed along the room's edges to secure the carpet in place. These strips have small, angled nails that grip the carpet backing.
- Carpet Installation| The carpet is laid onto the tack strips, ensuring a snug fit. The edges are trimmed, and any excess material is removed.
- Stretching and Finishing | The carpet is extended to remove wrinkles or bumps, and a power stretcher may be used for larger areas. The edges are tucked and secured, creating a finished look.
How Do You Install Hard Surface Flooring?
If you thought carpet installation was complex, let's briefly visit the steps required to install a hardwood, vinyl, or laminate floor successfully.
- Subfloor Preparation| Similar to carpet installation, the existing subfloor is inspected and prepared for the new flooring. This may involve repairing or leveling the surface.
- Underlayment Installation| Depending on the type of hard surface flooring (e.g., laminate, vinyl, hardwood), an underlayment may be installed to provide additional support, insulation, or moisture resistance.
- Acclimation of Materials| Some hard surface materials, such as hardwood, may need to acclimate to the environment for a certain period to prevent warping. This involves storing the material in the installation area for a specified time.
- Layout Planning| The installer plans the flooring layout, ensuring a balanced and aesthetically pleasing arrangement. This may involve dry-fitting pieces before the actual installation.
- Cutting and Fitting| Hard surface materials are cut to fit the room dimensions, and any necessary adjustments are made to accommodate obstacles like doorways or corners.
- Installation of Flooring| The flooring is installed according to the manufacturer's guidelines. This may involve clicking together planks (for laminate or luxury vinyl), nailing or gluing (for hardwood), or using adhesive (for some types of vinyl).
- Finishing Touches| Trim, molding, or transition pieces are added to complete the installation and provide a polished look. Any necessary clean-up is performed to leave the space ready for use.
