SSGM installs carpet in bedrooms, living areas, and on stairs across Dallas–Fort Worth. Installation labor runs $6–$9 per square yard, which works out to about $0.67–$1.00 per square foot. Carpet is still the warmest and quietest floor in the house, and stairs are a big part of our work. Many homes pair carpet on the stairs and in bedrooms with waterproof LVP in the kitchen, entry, or landing, and we install both.

Can you mix carpet stairs with LVP?

Yes. Many DFW homes mix floors: carpet on the stairs and in bedrooms, with waterproof LVP on the landing, in the kitchen, or in the entry. We install both, so the transitions between them are planned instead of patched.

How do we install carpet?

Like every floor we install, carpet starts with the subfloor. We check it for damage and uneven spots and correct them first, so the new carpet lies flat. On stairs, each step is fitted on its own so the carpet wraps cleanly around every nosing.

Our installation work is covered by our labor warranty.

Carpet questions

The questions DFW homeowners ask us most, answered plainly.

  1. Do you install carpet on stairs?

    Yes. Carpet on stairs is a big part of our work. Each step is fitted on its own so the carpet wraps cleanly around every nosing, and it pairs well with LVP on the landing.

  2. How is carpet installation priced?

    By the square yard. One square yard is 9 square feet, so our $6–$9 per square yard labor rate is about $0.67–$1.00 per square foot. To estimate square yards, multiply a room's length by its width in feet and divide by 9.

  3. Should I choose carpet or LVP for bedrooms?

    Most people choose carpet for bedrooms because it is warmer, softer, and quieter. LVP is waterproof and easier to clean, so it's the better pick for kitchens, entries, and homes with pets that have accidents.

  4. Should I put carpet or LVP on my stairs?

    Carpet is softer and quieter on stairs; LVP is easier to clean and holds up to heavy traffic. We install both, and either way each step is fitted individually.

  5. How much does carpet installation cost in Dallas?

    Installation labor is $6–$9 per square yard (about $0.67–$1.00 per square foot); the carpet and pad are priced separately. The final price depends on the rooms, the stairs, and the condition of your subfloor, and you get a clear, upfront quote before any work begins.

  6. How long does carpet installation take?

    Most homes of roughly 1,000–1,500 sq ft take 2 to 4 business days, including subfloor prep, installation, and cleanup. We'll confirm the schedule for your home with your quote.

  7. Isn't carpet outdated?

    Not in bedrooms and on stairs. It's still the most comfortable floor in the house, warm, quiet, and soft where kids play. Many homes keep carpet where comfort matters and use LVP where water and dirt are a concern.
