Some questions you need to know before installing your floors.

1. Question
Should I tile before having carpet
installed?
Answer:
Yes you should. The last
thing that goes in
should be your carpet.
Out of all types of
flooring, the first thing
that goes in should be
the dirtiest which is
typically the ceramic
tile. So start with the
tile finishes up with the
grout and you can now
install the carpet.

2. Question:
What would you use to level an old
wood floor?
Answer:
What I would use
to level an old floor
wood would be a
plywood flooring.
That typically
would level it out.
You could use a
quarter inch or half
inch plywood
flooring and that
should resolve the
job. However, you
still need to be
concerned with
increasing the
height if that has
an impact on the
rest of the area.
Hope this helps.

3. Question:
What does carpet and installation cost for
a 12X12 room?
Answer:
12x12 room
carpet is
going to be
144 square
feet and
carpeting
prices range
anywhere
from $1.29
per square
foot that
includes the
product and
the labor all
the way to
$5.29 per
square foot.
With the
midpoint of that range being the average price because you also run into
minimum labor installation, I would use maybe about $2.50-$3 and 144 sqft
as a price of an average cost of carpet pad and installation. Hope this helps.
