Professional Carpet Installation
At Carpet Weaver’s, professional carpet installation is more than just laying down new carpet—it’s a process built on precision, expertise, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. Whether you’re upgrading a living room, bedroom, or entire home, our flooring experts and independent installers deliver a flawless finish using the industry’s gold standard resource for carpet installation practices.
How Carpet Installation Works
Choose Your Carpet
Your journey starts with the right carpet. With a wide selection of quality carpet styles, textures, and colors available at our local stores, our flooring experts will guide you through the process to choose carpet that fits your lifestyle, décor, and budget. Whether you’re looking for plush comfort, durability for high-traffic areas, or pet friendly styles with stain resistance, we’ll help you make the perfect choice.
You’ll also select your carpet padding and review your inclusive price estimate, which includes installation and any additional charges. Many of our locations have in-stock carpet options for next-day installation, and we frequently run special offers or discounts off the regular price of select styles of carpet.
In Home Measurement
A professional in-home measurement is the foundation of a smooth installation. Our trained flooring experts visit your home to:
- Accurately measure the space to avoid waste and ensure efficiency
- Inspect subfloors for unevenness, moisture, or damage
- Identify challenges such as stairs, transitions, or unusual layouts
- Bring flooring samples so you can visualize how different styles look in your space and under your lighting
- Provide a written estimate with an itemized listing of applicable warranties
During this step, we assess project size, determine the proper subfloor preparation, and confirm your preferred time and preferred date for installation.
Prepare for Installation
Ahead of installation day, we ask that you:
- Move furniture out of the work area (or request furniture moving for an additional cost)
- Remove fragile items and electronics
- Secure pets away from the installation zone
All of this his helps ensure the installers can work efficiently and safely in the designated work area.
Professional Installation Day
Our independent, professional carpet installers arrive on time, with everything needed for a seamless installation:
- Removal of old flooring
- Inspection and subfloor preparation (patching, leveling, or addressing moisture issues)
- Installation of tack strips and standard padding
- Precise cutting, seaming, and stretching of your new carpet
- Trimming and tucking along baseboards and entryways for a flawless finish
- Final clean-up of the workspace, with disposal of old materials if included in your installation costs
Whether it’s a residential carpet installation or commercial project, our teams bring years of experience, specialized tools, and installation expertise to every job.

Carpet Installation FAQs
Most carpet installations at Carpet Weaver’s are completed in a single business day, depending on project size and room layout. Smaller rooms or straightforward layouts can take just a few hours, while staircases, larger homes, or unusually shaped rooms may take longer.
We’ll confirm the timeline during your free estimate and in-home measurement appointment so you know exactly what to expect on installation day. Our goal is to get your new carpet installed quickly, professionally, and with as little disruption to your home as possible.
Tipping carpet installers is not required, but it’s always appreciated for exceptional service. At Carpet Weaver’s, our professional independent installers are paid for their work, so a tip is entirely up to you. If your crew goes above and beyond—moving heavy furniture, working quickly and cleanly, or handling a complex job—a tip of $10–$20 per carpet installer is a thoughtful gesture. Alternatively, offering cold drinks or a simple thank-you goes a long way in showing appreciation.
At Carpet Weaver’s, standard carpet installation does not include furniture moving, but we do offer it as an optional service for an additional cost. If you’d like our team to handle the heavy lifting, just let us know during your measurement appointment so we can include it in your quote. From time to time, we also run special offers that include furniture moving at no extra cost—be sure to ask what’s available when scheduling your project!
Accurate measuring avoids product waste, incorrect orders, and delays. It’s your first step toward new flooring with no surprises and total peace of mind. A professional carpet installation starts with smart planning, and our experts follow detailed principles to account for a variety of unforeseen conditions that could affect the actual project cost.
Our goal is to help you avoid surprises and ensure your new carpet is installed perfectly.
