Now, quality carpet installation is a must when it comes to your carpet flooring. While carpet installation and carpet layering is not a challenging task, however, the size of the rolls along with the limited workplace available, can make it a tough job. Carpet flooring from Express Flooring, AZ is generally 12 feet in its width which therefore makes the carpet roll very heavy and difficult to handle even for a room of an average size of 12×12 feet.

It is highly suggested to choose professional carpet installation from Express Flooring.

Whether it’s plush carpet for a living room or a cushioned back carpet meant for your basement, below are some general tips from the experts of Express Flooring for you to consider during carpet installation and carpet layering.

1. Subfloor cleaning: The surface which has to be carpeted should be neat and clean. There is a need to scrape paint or anything that is stuck to your subfloor prior to carpet installation.

2. Installing the tackless slips: Tackless slips should not be installed near doorways and thresholds of your home as the strip tacks are sharp in nature and could anytime poke through the carpet thereby hurting your feet. Tackless strips are available in different heights, thickness and also, width. Hence, the selection of the perfect tackless strip is very important.

3. Installing the carpet pad: The carpet pad should be laid perpendicularly to the direction in which you plan to do your carpet installation and carpet layering. The carpet pad then has to be stapled near the tackless strip with the help of a staple hammer.

4. Stapling any pad seams: Stapling the seam of pads is also important during carpet installation and carpet layering in order to ensure that they are not stuck beside one another.

5. Trimming the pad: The padding has to be felt through in order to locate the tackless strip post which the padding along the interior edge of the tackless strip has to be cut with a knife in order for every tack to get exposed.

6. Trimming the carpet size: After following the above steps, the final thing to do is to roll your carpet with its back facing outwards until the notched areas start appearing. With chalk, draw from notch to notch and cut along it.
