Q:what is the carpet under the tea table in living room used for?

Walk on it barefoot is very comfortable, it also can prevent feet from being cold.

Q:The carpet guy came to our house and measured our room out the other day, and said to put the baseboards in after. I read on a lot of sites to do the base boards first. Is the carpet company asking us to do it this way so its easier for them? Should we put baseboards in first even though they say not to?

one of the biggest reasons I recommend putting the base first to avoid problems when you replace the carpet the next time. The tack strips that hold the carpet stretch almost always gets trapped under the base and makes it almost impossible to tear out the old carpet without taking the base off. (which is added cost or work for that next job) Then if your replaced carpet is thinner then the old the baseboard sits lower, so there is often touch up painting to do because you paint more often then replace carpet (more work or cost). Also when removing base you often crack a piece so you have to glue it back together. I have been installing carpets for 15 years now ( thousands of jobs) and I can count on one hand the number of jobs I installed a stretch in carpet without the base. I highly recommend you putting the base on first.and if you don't then insist that they install the tack strips far enough away from the wall so that you don't have to worry the next time your replace the carpet ( the thickness of the base + 1/4 inch)

Q:i can put carpet over a wooden floor cant i??

Yes, I worked in a carpet store for 8 years and what we told customers is to have it loose laid meaning get a roll that doesn't need seaming and can go right under the molding around the walls if you don't want the carpet tacks to mess up the wood. If you're not concerned about that then just have it laid over the floors. Best wishes

Q:looking to get carpet for 1 room

Just a standard carpet will average around $3,50 a s/f installed. Of course you can do higher or lower, it all depends on the over all quality of the carpet. Most carpet comes in 12 and 15' wide rolls so you ll need extra to seam it together.So you can t go just by the 13x13 ( 169 s/f) of the room size. In 12 foot widths you ll need a pc 12x15 or 180 s/f or a pc 15x13 ( 195 s/f) to fit the room. The are some patterned carpet that come 13'6. Any questions you can e mail me through my avatar. GL

Q:Someone spilt some blue WKD on my cream carpet and I've tried carpet stain remover, white wine and an industrial carpet cleaning machine. Are there any other ways which will remove the stain?

I don't know what wkd is, but here is a way to remove most stains that can be removed. A cup of warm water with 2 drops of a liquid laundry soap, mix well. Using your fingers dampen the carpet fibers. Try not to get the back of the carpet wet. After the carpet is wet , make a big pile of white paper towels on top of the wet spot. Now put a weight on top that will not rust or bleed from the water. Maybe a cookie sheet with a brick on top. Leave it covered for 12 to 24 hours. Remove . Look at the paper towel if the stain has transferred to the paper you are on the right track. Just keep doing it until its gone. There is a chance that the wkd has removed the color from the carpet and you can not fix it. Also you may have set the stain with the wine. For your information carpet cleaners have equipment and stain removers that home owners can not buy. Calling a carpet cleaner is a lot less money than replacing the carpet. One last word , your home owners insurance company may cover the cost of replacement.
