\"third<\/p>\n

If you’ve ever tried to find a third party carpet installer<\/em> to put\u00a0flooring you’ve previously purchased, we’re willing to bet you’ve been turned down by a few of them.<\/p>\n

Although\u00a0this can extremely annoying, there is a good reason for flooring installers to do this.<\/p>\n

We’re here to tell you all about it.<\/p>\n

Why Professional Carpet Installers avoid Products Purchased from other Companies<\/h2>\n

It is not uncommon to call a carpet company, ask to have a third party flooring product installed<\/strong>, and be denied. <\/span>What many homeowners don’t know, however, is a lot of detailed planning goes into installations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Carpet installations are not just about picking out your carpet or flooring, measuring your rooms, and having it installed. Every carpet business has its own rules, regulations, and procedures they follow.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a breakdown of why most companies refuse third-party product installations and prefer bundling the cost for carpet, padding, and installation<\/a>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Measurements<\/strong>:<\/span> Were the rooms properly measured? Is there enough product to fulfill the spaces intended? If you don\u2019t have enough carpet\u00a0or the measurements are off, then the installation can not take place or could be botched. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Design\/Pattern<\/strong>:<\/span> This somewhat goes hand-in-hand with measurements.<\/span><\/i> If the design is meant to run in a certain direction (vertical, not horizontal) and the\u00a0carpet was cut a certain way, this would be difficult to correct. The installation could be tricky, or even messy once installed. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Dyelot<\/strong>:<\/span> On some occasions, when carpet\u00a0and flooring products are reproduced, coloring or shades are slightly off. Unless the installation is completely fulfilled, then it\u2019s chancing whether or not the next batch will be the exact same color. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Warranty<\/strong>:<\/span> A very important part of any flooring purchase. \u00a0A carpet warranty<\/a> is voided when carpet is purchased from one vendor and installed by another<\/span>.<\/span><\/i><\/li>\n
  5. Storage<\/strong>:<\/span> How flooring was stored (climate, area, level of dust and other specifications that can change and alter texture, as well as condition of flooring)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Benefits of Buying from a Full-Service Carpet Company<\/h2>\n

    Don’t let outsourcing a third party carpet installation fool you. Buying carpet and flooring directly from a one-stop-shop carpet company<\/a> pays off in much more ways like:<\/p>\n
