What do carpet laying and installation services include?

Adding in a carpet to your home can be that final touch when designing your interiors. However, installing a carpet is no easy chore. The best carpet installers near you can measure, cut, and lay your carpet correctly. No need to go through all the hassle of doing it yourself! Here’s what you can expect when booking carpet installations near you: 

Preparing for carpet installation

Before getting your new carpet installed, there are a lot of preparations that need to be done by local carpet installers. First, the floor space is measured. This makes sure that you’ll only purchase the right amount of carpet and that it is cut accurately.

Some Taskers may even offer same-day carpet installation near you. Before rolling out the carpet, they make sure that there are no loose nails and wooden boards. Some installers also help move aside furniture you had assembled to keep everything clear and ready for carpet laying.

Glue-down carpet installation

The glue-down method is the most common method among installers. Here, the carpet is glued directly to the floor. This is ideal for floors that cover larger areas. That is why it is used for commercial carpet installation. It provides solid support, especially for buildings that wish to have carpeted ramps. It is certain to not budge, even with things rolling over the surface daily. 

The best carpet installers make sure that your floors are smooth. This ensures fewer mistakes during carpet laying. When not done correctly, the areas not glued down properly wear quickly. That’s why it’s best to leave it to an experienced Tasker. Once rolled out and secured, you can always have your carpets cleaned and stains removed to ensure a fresh, brand new look.

Stretch-in carpet installation

Most homeowners may opt for a stretch-in carpet. Here, strips of wood containing nails are nailed around the edges of the room. Padding is installed in the middle of the room for the carpet to lay over it. The carpet is then attached to the pins on the strips of wood. From there, your carpet installer will stretch it across the room. A plus to this method is the extra padding underneath the carpet. It provides added comfort and extends the lifespan of the carpet itself. 

Adding a carpet underlay

An added service that is offered by many independent carpet installers near you is carpet underlay. This is a thin cushion put under your carpet. It is made of materials like sponge rubber and foam. A carpet underlay provides extra comfort to your flooring. It also provides your room with acoustic and thermal installation. Be sure to ask your carpet installer for the best underlay for your carpet and its installation method.

Carpet Removal / Floor Prep

$300

Calamvale QLD, Australia

12th Jan 2025

Need the section of carpet in upstairs walk-in robe between bedroom and bathroom removed. Carpet has been wet at some stage but no longer. In addition to removing (and disposing of carpet) remnants of underlay and tacking strips need to be removed as well as. Essentially, we would like it prepped to the stage where we can decide to put down hybrid flooring or start over with carpet again. Carpet section is around 2m x 1.8m so roughly 4 m2. If someone has experience with laying hybrid that would be a bonus as they would know what the floor needs to be like if we chose that option.

Carpet Replacement

Calamvale QLD, Australia

Need a quote to have the carpet and underlay replaced (removal and disposal of existing carpet and underlay) in the loungeroom of a townhouse. New carpet needs to match (as close as possible) to existing carpet. Area is not exactly rectangular but at its widest is about 3.3 x 5.4. Assume an exact measurement and sample would be required to match. Colour / style match is important. Can add a photo but screens don't always, if ever, come close to actual colour / shade. Just throwing in a dollar value as we have no idea where to start.
