Common Questions About Carpet Installation
How much does carpet installation cost in Austin?
Carpet installation in Austin typically ranges from $3-$9 per square foot installed, depending on carpet quality, fiber type, and room preparation. Basic polyester carpet starts at $3/sq ft, while premium nylon carpet with lifetime warranties costs $6-$9/sq ft. We provide detailed quotes with no hidden fees.
What's the best carpet for pets and kids?
Nylon carpet with stain-resistant treatment is the best choice for pets and kids. Look for carpets with built-in stain protection like Scotchgard or similar technology. Frieze or textured styles hide dirt and wear better than plush carpet. We recommend carpets with at least a 15-year warranty for active households.
How long does carpet installation take?
Most carpet installations take 1-2 days depending on square footage and room complexity. Bedroom carpet typically takes 4-6 hours. Whole-home carpet installations take 1-2 days. We remove old carpet, prepare the subfloor, and install new carpet and padding all in one visit.
Do you remove old carpet before installing new carpet?
Yes! We remove and dispose of old carpet and padding as part of our installation service. Removal is included in our quotes. We also inspect the subfloor for any damage or issues that need to be addressed before installing new carpet.
How do I maintain carpet and keep it looking new?
Vacuum regularly (at least once a week), clean spills immediately with a damp cloth, and have carpets professionally cleaned every 12-18 months. Use doormats to reduce tracked-in dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage carpet fibers or stain protection.
Do you offer a warranty on carpet installation?
Yes! We offer a 5-year warranty on installation workmanship. Carpet materials come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 10 years to lifetime, depending on the product you choose. We stand behind our work 100%.
