Remove all sheets, blankets, and bedspreads from beds if applicable.
All furniture and objects should be removed from the installation area before

Installation Day
Be prepared to have an responsible party present during the installation in case the installation crew has questions.
Verify product and color when the installers arrive.
For safety reasons we ask that you keep all pets and kids away from the installation area.
Prior to the end of your installation you will be asked to walk thru the job with the installer. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions about any final details.
The installation area will be cleaned after the install is complete.
After Installation
Provide the room with ventilation.
Some of the chemicals and adhesives in carpets can have an odor for up to 72 hours.
Shedding and sprouting is a natural part of a new carpet.
Vacuuming for the following couple of days should help with shedding.
For sprouting trim the loose fibers flush with the carpet's surface with small scissors.
Here are some standard maintenance tips to help keep your carpets beautiful:
• Use a vacuum with a good beater bar and maximum suction.
• Change vacuum bags frequently, if your vacuum uses them.
• Don't vacuum over loose yarn or try to pull out the snag.
• Treat stains as soon as possible.
• It's recommended that you get your carpet professionally cleaned about once a year.

1. Carpet Provides Safety
Carpet is a soft flooring with a cushioned under-padding that not only resists the impact of a fall, but is inherently slip-resistant so it prevents the likelihood of if happening in the first place.
2. Carpet Offers Insulation
The combination of under-padding and carpet also acts as an insulator, which provides actual thermal resistance (or R-value).
3. Carpet Offers Warmth and Comfort
The insulating properties of carpet produces an excellent warmth under foot, making it a comfortable place to play, sit, or work and a great choice for bedrooms or stark offices.
4. Carpet Adds Beauty and Style
With thousands of carpet styles and colors to choose from, you can use it to amplify the beauty and your personalized style to your home or office. Carpet can be a neutral foundation to bring any room together, or you can make it the focal point with vibrant colors and stronger bolder patterns and textures.
5. Carpet Provides Sound Reduction
Carpet reduces noise and echoes by soaking up room sounds and echoes, absorbing the impact of foot traffic, blocking sounds from carrying between floors, and helps mask the sound of constant foot traffic on stairs.
6. Carpet Improves Air Quality
New carpet is the lowest VOC - emitting floor choice available. Studies have shown that people with asthma and allergies have seen symptom improvement with carpet. This is due to it actually acting as a passive air filter, by trapping dust, pollen, and allergens. Which improves the air quality in your home or office as long as it's properly cleaned and vacuumed on a regular basis.
7. Carpet is Easy to Care For
Most carpets today are also made to be highly stain-resistant. So cleanup is easy, with just a quick vacuuming or a damp cloth your carpet looks as good as new.
