Soft Flooring That Fits Cleanly
Carpet installation for bedrooms, stairs, and living areas in Spokane and Coeur d’Alene
Carpet adds warmth and cushioning to rooms where you walk barefoot or want sound absorption, and it works well in bedrooms, stairs, and family areas throughout Spokane area homes. A properly installed carpet lies flat without wrinkles, stays tight at edges, and does not pull away from tack strips when furniture is moved or vacuuming happens regularly.
Stone Base Contractors LLC installs carpet with pad underlayment, power stretching to remove slack, and precise trimming around doorways and transitions. If you have existing carpet that needs removal, the crew handles that step as well, including disposal and subfloor cleaning. You end up with a smooth surface that feels consistent underfoot and stays in place over time.

What happens during a carpet installation
When the crew arrives in Spokane and Coeur d’Alene, they remove any existing carpet if needed, install tack strips along the perimeter, and lay padding that matches the carpet thickness. The carpet is then rolled out, cut to fit the room, and stretched using a power stretcher that pulls slack from the center toward the edges.
After installation, your carpet lies flat with no ripples or loose sections, the edges are tucked neatly against baseboards, and transitions to other flooring types are clean and even. Walking across the room feels cushioned, and the carpet does not shift or pull up at corners.
Stone Base Contractors LLC trims excess material around doorways and closets, secures the carpet to tack strips without gaps, and ensures seams are placed in low-traffic areas where they are less visible. The crew vacuums the new carpet and removes all debris before finishing the job.
Homeowners often want to know how long installation takes, whether old carpet removal is included, and what type of padding works best for their needs and budget.
Details homeowners usually ask about
What type of padding is used under carpet?
Most installations use foam or rebond padding that provides cushioning and extends carpet life by absorbing impact. The padding thickness depends on carpet type and traffic level, with denser padding used in high-traffic areas like stairs.
How long does carpet installation take in a typical room?
A standard bedroom or living room usually takes a few hours, including padding, stretching, and trimming. Larger spaces or rooms with multiple transitions and closets may take longer depending on layout complexity.
Why is power stretching necessary during installation?
Power stretching removes slack from the carpet and pulls it tight against tack strips, which prevents ripples and buckling over time. Without stretching, the carpet loosens as it settles, creating wrinkles that do not flatten on their own.
Can existing carpet be removed as part of the service?
Yes, Stone Base Contractors LLC removes old carpet, padding, and tack strips if needed, and hauls away the material. The subfloor is cleaned and prepped before new padding and carpet are installed.
What happens at transitions between carpet and hard flooring?
Transition strips are installed at doorways and edges where carpet meets tile, hardwood, or vinyl. These strips hold the carpet edge securely and create a smooth, even surface that prevents tripping or fraying.
