What to expect from your carpet installation

What to expect from your carpet installation

The bottom line is this: You should expect a smooth, wrinkle-free, and beautiful floor.

You may wonder what is included in the total price of a carpet installation, especially if it's your first time. Therefore, it's always advisable to look at the estimate carefully.?

Ask questions about your carpet flooring installation when necessary. The last thing you want is a surprise last-minute invoice.

Expect quality carpet to last for up to 20 years


Sometimes more! I once had carpeting that lasted over 20 years?and I even raised and trained a puppy during that period.

That being said, I bought the best quality carpet I could afford and took care of it.

Expect to see many designs and styles when shopping?


Don?t get distracted, though. Needs are also highly individualized. The rug you fell in love with in the carpet store?or at your neighbor?s? may not be the right choice for you.

Expect some shedding or sprouting


After installing your new carpet, you might see some loose fibers. There might also be some individual tufts that stick up above the expected fiber height.

All of that's normal with a new carpet installation. However, if it continues for over a few weeks, you should call the carpet store for advice about your rug.

Timetable expectations


Don't rush it: Glue takes 24-72 hours to adhere. Moving furniture in too soon will leave indentations on your new carpet in Santa Ana.

You can walk on it right away. That might help it stick. Remember, though, we're talking about one or two people in socks or slippers?not in heavy shoes and not with heavy foot traffic.
