Carpet Installer and Finisher

Carpet installers and finishers lay carpet coverings in all sorts of commercial buildings. They measure the area to be carpeted and plan the layout, keeping in mind expected traffic patterns and placement of seams for best appearance and maximum wear.

At Sequence, we recognize the importance of correct installation of carpeting or other flooring: Carpet, tile and other types of floor coverings not only serve a critical basic function in commercial buildings, but their decorative qualities also contribute to the appeal of the buildings.

Most of these professionals, including flooring and tile installers and finishers, possess experience in laying floor coverings in offices, stores, restaurants and many other types of buildings.

Professional carpet installers and finishers also follow the best techniques. For example, before putting in carpet, carpet installers inspect the surface of the floor to be covered. They determine its condition and, if necessary, correct any imperfections that could show through the carpet or cause it to wear unevenly.

Successful carpet installers and finishers know that installing wall-to-wall carpet without tacks requires that they first fasten a tackless strip to the floor, next to the wall. They then install the padded cushion or underlay. Next, they roll out, measure, mark and cut the carpet, allowing for 2 to 3 inches of extra carpet for the final fitting.

Using a device called a “knee kicker,” carpet installers then position the carpet, stretching it to fit evenly on the floor and snugly against each wall and door threshold. They then cut off the excess carpet. Finally, using a power stretcher, they stretch the carpet, hooking it to the tackless strip to hold it in place. The installers then finish the edges using a wall trimmer.
