Carpet and pad to be provided. No carpet to take up or furniture to move. About 130 yds plus set of stairs. Tack strips are needed. Concrete floor.
a lot of places offer whole house installation for $99 or $199. It would take a day or two to do a whole house, but they make the money back on the carpet. if you have a home depot or lowes near you, look for an offer.
I had a 14x14 room recarpeted, no carpet, concrete floor, no stairs, and the carpet, pad, and installation came to about $860. Throw in the stairs and I'd bet it'll come to about $1500. It also depends on what grade of carpet and pad you buy. I got the middle of the road quality for both carpet and pad.
It will depend on your area you live, the type of carpet, (berber is more), and the type of floor your covering ( concrete is more ) There may also be charges for floor preparations, and removal and disposal of the old flooring. With this said, in the Chicago area the cost ranges $ 3.50 to $ 5.00 per square yard, for normal carpeting on a wood sub-floor. Installation of padding and tack strip is included in this price. Add an additional $ .50 to $ 1.00 for Berber and the same for concrete. In other words you could expect $ 7.00 per sq. yard for installation of Berber carpeting on a concrete sub-floor. Average rates for floor prep are $ 25.00 per hour, and carpet removal is $ 1.00 sq. yard. With a $ 35.00 fee for them to dispose of it. Generally an installer will charge an additional fee of $ 3.00 to $ 5.00 per step. Depending on the type of step, if the step is wrapped, or if he has to deal with spindle's. I hope this helps
