1. Selecting the right Carpet for you.
This critical aspect of buying carpet must include selecting a carpet made with the correct fiber, with a sufficient face-weight, including enough density and material quality to meets your needs and lifestyle. Get it wrong and you stand to lose thousands. In my website I have provided you with articles and information to help you understand how important it is to select the right carpet. One of the biggest problems you will encounter is carpet salespeople who don't know anything about the products they are selling. If you put all your trust in a carpet salesperson's advice or suggestions you may be making a huge mistake. Ultimately you are responsible for what carpet you select, regardless of what any salesperson suggests to you. If you end up with a crappy carpet you will have no one to blame but yourself. We'll talk more on this subject later....Meanwhile, if you have any carpet questions I invite you to e-mail me.
2. Getting Accurate Carpet Measurements saves you money.
Sooner or later you may have a carpet salesperson come to your home to measure for carpet. Here is where you can encounter another common problem. Measuring for carpet is an art. Not everyone is good at measuring. If over-measured or measured wrong you lose money because you will be charged for more material and labor than you actually need. If your carpet needs are under-measured you won't have enough carpet to finish the job. Then they will have to order more carpet from the mill and you'll have to wait at least another three weeks before the carpet arrives.
Some carpet salespeople are very sneaky. In order to make more profit, they may say you need more carpet than you actually do. It's a very common form of carpet scam. If you are intentionally over-measured you stand to lose hundreds of dollars. You need to be sure you are not a victim of this or any other carpet scam. There are dozens more common carpet scams you need to know how to look out for. We'll talk more on this subject later....Many carpet scams are discussed within this website, other important but less common carpet scams I discuss in detail in my e-book.
3. Finding Qualified Carpet Installers
If installed improperly, carpet can lose half of it's intended life-span. This can be a huge problem for you if you don't know how to tell a good installer from a bad one especially since three out of four carpet installers are not properly trained. In most cases, by the time you discover that your carpet has been installed improperly it's already too late.
When you buy new carpet you generally have two choices, use the installers provided by the carpet retailer, or hire an independent carpet installer yourself. Both options have their downside but no matter which way you end up going there are precautions you must take to ensure that your carpet is installed properly. In my ebook I have 10 questions you must ask your carpet installer before he begins installing your carpet. Use my powerful carpet buying guide to your advantage and save yourself from making serious and costly mistakes.
Carpet Padding
Another common problem consumers face is buying the wrong carpet padding. Get this wrong and you not only void your carpet warranty, but your carpet will not last as long as it should. In some cases using the wrong padding will cause your carpet to develop wrinkles. Don't trust the carpet salesperson to make this choice for you either. It is your responsibility to be sure you are buying the correct padding that matched the requirements set forth by the carpet manufacturer. If the carpet retailer makes the pad choice for you, you will not have any recourse if your warranty is voided from using the wrong pad. Again, you are ultimately responsible for making sure that the correct padding is used. There are many different types of padding, in varying thickness and density. Some are very expensive, some are quite reasonable, some are better for basements, some are better for stairs. In my ebook I reveal the best way for you to choose the right pad for your needs and budget.
4. Where to find the Best Carpet Deals!
Everyone wants to get a good deal, and nobody wants to be overcharged. Carpet retailers are some of the most unscrupulous business people I have ever encountered. There are a lot of carpet rip-offs everywhere in the world so if you want to get a good deal on carpet, you are going to have to do some homework. You could start from scratch and hope you make wise choices or you can take advantage of the years it has taken me to compile the information in my Carpet buying guide. Take the advice of a 30-year carpet dog like me, don't buy carpet until you are absolutely sure about what you are buying, how long it will last, verified how much material you require, have compared quality and prices and know the manufacturers warranty limitations and the reputation of who you are buying from.
You might think you are a smart shopper because you are actively searching for carpet buying information on the web. You did find my website, and that is a good thing. The problem is, there is very little carpet information on the web that is worthwhile and accurate. Besides, how would you know what information is accurate and which is not? To be a smart shopper you need to know more about buying carpet than the limited information that is given away for free on the internet. And the info needs to be accurate if it is going to do you any good at all. So, don't skim my site and then run off looking for better information elsewhere on the web, it doesn't exist. It will just confuse you and drive you crazy.
My website is the best carpet buying information website. Why? Because I have no agenda, I'm not trying to sell you carpet. I want you to make wise carpet choices. All the other websites just want to sell you carpet or hope to make a commission from referring you to other online sellers. They don't have your best interests in mind, they have your pocketbook in mind. That's lesson number one. I am your best friend in the carpet business, I will never make a dime from your carpet purchase, no matter who you buy from. I do hope you will order my ebook. It helps me keep my website up and running and it is packed with extremely valuable information that I guarantee will save you a ton of money on your next carpet purchase. That is a win-win situation.
Where to buy carpet.
The real game here is which retailer can convince you to buy from them first? They use all sorts of tricks. See all the carpet ads on television? They spend millions trying to get your attention.
