Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
Always add a waste factor to your carpet material calculations, typically 10-15%, especially for irregular rooms, patterned carpets, or jobs requiring multiple seams. This prevents shortages and ensures you have enough material for cuts and errors.
Yes, unless explicitly stated as included in your base price. Moving heavy furniture requires additional labor and time. Clearly state this as an optional or separate line item in your quote to avoid misunderstandings with the client.
Include a contingency or a separate line item for potential subfloor repairs in your quote, noting that the final cost will depend on the actual condition discovered after old flooring removal. Alternatively, you can provide an estimate for common repairs and inform the client of potential additional charges if extensive work is needed.
Local disposal fees for old carpet and padding can vary. Research current landfill or waste management fees in Thomaston, GA, and factor these into your overall disposal charge per project. Always ensure you're complying with local waste regulations.
While some companies charge labor based on the amount of carpet purchased, contractors often find it more straightforward to charge based on the actual room square footage to align with client expectations. Ensure your pricing model is consistent and clearly communicated to the client, regardless of the method chosen.
