CARPET INSTALLATION In Bountiful, UT

BEFORE CARPET INSTALLATION

Knowing what to expect before your professional carpet installation can ensure that the process goes more smoothly on installation day. 

  • Discuss goals with your installation team prior to the start of the work. 
  • Have clarity on who is removing your existing flooring or if it needs to be removed at all. 
  • Move any and all furniture from the room(s) in question before installation. You should also make sure no heirlooms or precious items are near the job site. 
  • Make sure children and pets are nowhere near the installation work for their safety and ours. 
  • Complete any painting that might need to be done.
  • Ask any questions that you might have.

During Carpet Installation

While the process and timeframe may vary depending on a number of factors, here is a rough overview of what will happen on your carpet installation day:

  • Your crew will begin by addressing your current flooring (as mentioned in the previous section) before working to prepare the surface for carpet installation. 
  • The team will secure tack strips and lay the carpet pad. 
  • They will then line up the seams to ensure cohesion. 
  • Finally, the carpet will be stretched and secured to the floor. 

AFTER CARPET INSTALLATION

Once finished with the installation, we recommend the following steps to ensure longevity in your carpet flooring. 

  • Run a fan to remove any installation-related smells. 
  • Stay off your carpet floors for a period of time (24 hours at least) to allow the materials to settle. 
  • Follow our care and maintenance guide for proper upkeep on your floors. 
  • Stay in touch with our team as questions arise.
