Q:i spilled 4 little dots of black fabric dye..is there a way to clean it with out messing up the carpet.

Unfortunately, the dye is permanent. Your best bet is a Carpet Transplant: Cut the stained area out using a razor knife. Be careful to cut only the carpet, not the padding under it. Cut a piece of replacement carpet from a place no one will ever notice, like from inside a closet. Put the ruined carpet piece on a piece of paper and trace around it. This will be your template. Cut this out and use it as a pattern for the new piece. You want an exact match in shape. Glue the replacement piece of carpet in place using waterproof glue. Attach it to the padding underneath. Or you can sew it into place by sewing it to the existing carpet. (You will need a curved needle if you sew it in place.) The repair should be invisible when you're done. -

Q:Can I lay a wooden floor above the carpet?

Q:What can i do to make the bumps go away? i tried vacuuming and that works until i put the table on top of the rug. Help?

Q:Because carpet is soft...

The carpet may be soft, but your chin is a very sensitive part of your body. It never comes in contact with anything - unlike your hands - and it never builds up callous or protective tissue. It is also home to a lot of receptors - so when you rub your chin against the carpet, you are giving it a friction burn and that hurts. Not sure why you might want to rub your chin against the carpet in the first place, but that's why it hurts.

You really can't afford to replace the carpet or put in a new easy-to-clean flooring like wood? Don't you want to start out life in your new home with a clean, new flooring that nobody but you touched? Could you at least do some research and price some of the options to see what you can afford? Your word ruined tells me that this is not just a minor spot here and there. There may also be old stains that you can't even see. Doesn't it turn you off just a wee bit to think of living on carpet saturated with excrement? If you really can't or won't replace the carpeting, you will still have to spend some money by calling in a good, reliable professional carpet cleaner. Believe me, just shpritzing a stain remover here and there will not do the trick.

Q:Do I Put the floor base moulding in before or after I carpet.. It would make sense to do it before because after to patch up the nail holes and repaint it you dont have to worry about getting paint on the carpet but it wont looks as large as the carpet would cover up a portion of it.. So my question is what is the proper time to put it in? Thanks

Put the base boards on before the carpet is installed. If you ever need to replace the carpet in the future you wont have to remove all the base boards to do it. The carpet installer uses tack strips at all wall areas to hold the carpeting. Once the carpet is installed you will need to touch up the finish on the base boards do to some scratches that the carpet installer will cause. I'm a builder 30 years.
