What to Expect During Your Carpet Installation
Congratulations on the purchase of your new carpet! We are excited to be a part of your home’s transformation. Below, we have highlighted a few important details of what to expect during this process.
Preparation
To prepare for installation day, we ask that you safely store all of your personal, electronic, fragile and valuable items that are in the scheduled work areas. If you plan to have us move any beds and/or mattresses, please remove all bedding. Bedding is a personal item. For the safety of everyone, we ask that all
fur babies are kept in a safe space and away from work areas. Please ensure that your HVAC is working properly as a temperature-controlled home is a requirement by the manufacturer for most flooring types. The temperature should remain between 65-80 degrees during installation.
Installation Day
Our team is scheduled to arrive between 9-10am unless other arrangements have been made. A team member may need access to water during your project, please direct them to where they should get water from, in addition, if there is a restroom your team is welcome to use please show them to it during the initial walk through. We will begin by moving furniture. If there is a room or area that works best to store your furniture during your project, please make your team aware. Any home renovation is construction, during construction, you should expect noise and some dust. There will be vibrations, which is why it is important to remove anything fragile from the walls as the vibrations may knock down wall decorations. Expect paint touchups on baseboards and walls. Our team is trained to be careful, but touchups are part of the process.
The timeframe of your installation varies based on room size and type of carpet. Most carpet installations take about one day. Communicate directly with your service provider for more accurate time estimates. If you have any questions or special requests beforehand, feel free to let us know—we’re here to make this as seamless as possible for you!
Post Installation
Your team will do a thorough clean up after your carpet installation. All previous carpet and pad will be removed from your home, unless other arrangements were previously made, your installers will vacuum, as a matter of fact, At Absolute we offer FREE VACCUM LINES WITH EVERY INSTALL! You can also expect the fresh smell of new carpet for days, maybe even weeks!
It may take you a couple weeks of regular vacuuming before you don’t see any carpet yarns. Make sure you take your vacuum hose along the edge of the wall, that is where they like to hide the most. Vacuuming and regular professional cleanings are very important, please refer to your manufacturers’ specifications and guidelines regarding your carpets specific needs and warranty.
