Commercial carpet install in Franklin TN

Commercial Carpet install in Franklin

we installed this commercial carpet glue down in 2 different times the first in the front and the second install was in the back. The client was looking for new carpet that would help the building sell faster, I recommended Beaulieu's hedgerow it is a nice but inexpensive commercial carpet. The back section had vct and commercial vinyl down over the concrete we took up what could be and feathered out high sections with ardex feather finish.

Saving money on Commercial carpet

There are many ways you can save money on carpet, you can save on labor product or install method. I would save money buy glueing the carpet down if the application is acceptable such as office space. You can also get a very cheap product normally this is a 20 ounce olephin product, the only problem with this is that it also looks very cheap. I would suggest a little heavier graphic olephin like Hedgrove that looks a little nicer. Saving money on labor is almost making your entire investment a complete waste of money. Glue down installations are supposed to be the easiest install for our industry however cheap carpet and cheap labor normally makes you wonder why you spent the money in the first place. Cheap carpet doesnt seam together as well on average also it is faster to overlap both sides and cut through both layers of carpet to make your seams, this 6 months later will make your carpet ravel.
