How do I put down carpet?
Looking for info on rugs safavieh, home dynamix rugs, oriental area rug, gabbeh persian rugs and more?
I bought a mobile home that had "new carpet installed" well the carpet is new, but it wasn’t installed. They just laid it down after fitting it.
Now that I’ve moved some of my furniture around, it’s causing the carpet to pull up. I’ve laid tiles before, but not carpet. What do I do to get it installed properly?
How can I get hard to remove stains out of my rug?
I have a dog who has gotten sick on my rug and it’s made stains in some areas. I have used resolve to get it off and that did not work. Then I tried using some shaving cream and letting that sit for a while and removing it but that also didn’t work. I also used this orange product and that of course didn’t work. I can’t afford a new carpet and would really like to get the stains out of this one. What is the best product to use as these stains have been there a few months?

Has anyone here ever used Empire to install carpet & windows?
We just bought a house that desperatly needs new carpet and windows.
We have been searching around, and it seems like Empire is the one to go with. But my wacko father-in-law is insisting that they are a scam. And that as soon as they come in to do the work there are going to be all sorts of hidden fees.
Has anyone ever had a good/bad experience with Empire?
Should I have my dog put to sleep? Old, pees on carpet, barks when front door opens, hides under bed all day.
My pomeranian has become a thorn in my side. She is loosing weight, going deaf, stinks no matter how often I bathe her, avoids family contact, and pees on my carpet every night. I really can’t stand the sight of her anymore. If she at least wanted to have something to do with us I wouldn’t even have this question. With 2 small children I can’t stand the thought of them on the carpet were the dog peed even after I cleaned it and my house is beginning to smell of dog pee. We just put down brand new carpet when we bought this house a year a go and now its nasty. I shampoo the carpet everytime I find a spot but that’s not enough. Should I feel guilty for not wanting to keep my dog even though she is getting old and becoming infirm?

How much would it cost to get a professional to install hardwood floors/carpet?
Say that I moved all of the furniture out of the two rooms I wanted the floor installed in.
About how much would it be to install hardwood floors in a small dining room and new carpet in a small family room? Do not include labor.
Would it be less if we bought the hard wood flooring and carpet instead of them bringing their own?
Thanks in advance. ![]()
Is there a safe way to run an electrical cord from a wall socket to a lamp in the middle of the room?
We are having new carpet installed in our family room next week. Is it possible to somehow run an electrical cord under the carpet to a reading lamp that is near the center of the room (about 5′ from the nearest wall socket)? Presently, the lamp cord is partially tucked under an area rug that sits on top of the carpet. But we plan to get rid of this area rug once the new carpet is laid. We don’t want someone to accidentally trip over the cord.
I won’t give any "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" since I appreciate all answers–usually. ![]()

Should we pay for improvements if we buy a home?
My husband and I would like to buy a home (not a new one). We just saw one that we like, but it needs to be painted, it needs new carpet throughout and it needs some new appliances.
I think that this would make a really beautiful home if we did those improvements.
But should we pay for them, or should the owner pay for them? Or should we get a better price?
Any experiences or advice? Thanks.
