Before Carpet Installation
Here is what to expect before your carpet installation:
- Have a plan for your existing floors. Who is removing them? Do they need to be removed?
- Remove furniture or have a plan in place for someone to remove it for you. You are responsible for moving any fragile items or furniture from your home.
- Measure door clearances before you have your carpet installed. This is to ensure the door does not get caught on the carpet.
- Ensure children and pets are not present on installation day.
- Complete any painting work.
During Carpet Installation

- The crew will prepare the surface for installation.
- They will then place tack strips and lay the carpet pad: The installer will nail or glue tack strips to hold the carpet in place. Then the pad is laid and secured with staples or glue.
- The crew will then line up the seams to ensure things look as they should.
