Question:

How much does new carpeting generally cost?

I am looking at getting some new carpeting for my home, how much does carpet usually cost? I am guessing they figure it out by square foot and which type of carpet that you want...but just a round about answer, how much is carpet per square foot?

Answer:

?Are you looking for the material sq ft, for labour, or just for the material?
$20 to $30 a sq yard
Depends totally on the quality. Plus, you have to pay for padding, the price of which also depends on quality and the installation. Start shopping
Round, average carpet will be around 3./3.50$ a s/f. This isn t fancy and not the cheapest... This is an installed price with pad ( 5 1/2# minimum) and standard installation. Won t cover rip out and disposal of the old. This is just a general price to get you an idea.. And your right.. carpet is only sold in the s/f format.. Never sold ( can be shown) in the s/y format any more. Its against the law now. Any questions you can e mail me through my avatar. GL
