Plush and Textured Carpet Installation in Washington, DC

Plush and textured carpet is what most people picture when they picture carpet, and it is also where the widest quality range hides. Two carpets that look identical on a showroom shelf can wear completely differently, and the spec that predicts it is face weight and density rather than fibre type.

Textured carpet has a higher twist level than plush, which is why it hides footprints and vacuum marks. Plush shows every one of them, and in a hallway or a family room that becomes the thing you notice daily. It is worth knowing that before you pick rather than after it is down.

Carpe Diem Floors measures in the home across Washington, DC and brings samples so you see them under your own light. Showroom lighting flatters carpet in a way that living rooms do not, and a colour that looked warm under halogen can read grey by a north-facing window.

Ask for face weight in ounces and density, not just the word premium. A 40oz carpet at high density will outlast a 55oz carpet at low density, and it usually costs less.

Plush And Textured Carpet Installation FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Plush and Textured Carpet Installation

Questions we hear most often about Plush and Textured Carpet Installation in Washington, DC.

Talk to a real person
How long does carpet installation take in Washington, DC?
A typical three-bedroom house is one day. Stairs add time, patterned carpet adds more because of the repeat match, and moving furniture is the variable nobody budgets for. We give you a realistic figure at the measure rather than an optimistic one on the phone.
What is the difference between face weight and density?
Face weight is how much fibre is there. Density is how tightly it is packed. Density predicts wear better, which is why a dense 40oz carpet outlasts a loose 55oz one that costs more.
What carpet pad should I get?
8lb rebond is the residential standard. Lighter pad breaks down early and shortens the life of the carpet above it. Pad thicker than 7/16 of an inch voids most manufacturer warranties because the backing flexes too far.
Do you charge separately for stairs?
Yes, and they are priced per tread rather than by area. Waterfall is quicker and cheaper; cap and band wraps each tread and riser and looks tailored. We will show you both on your own staircase.
What is the difference between plush and frieze?
Twist level. Frieze has the highest twist, so the fibres stand up and hide footprints and vacuum lines. Plush shows every one of them. Frieze is the practical choice for a busy household.
