Should I Repair or Replace my Carpet

“This carpet was installed less than 5 years ago, I can’t believe it already needs to be replaced!” These feelings are often shared by many homeowners. These same homeowners are unware that carpet repair can be the effective and affordable option. But is it really that affordable?

Replacement Cost

The following are some of the factors that go into the price of carpet replacement:

• Carpet
• Tear Out
• Disposal
• Padding
• Installation

As you can imagine it all adds up. Replacement can bring you to a price range from $9/square yard all the way up to $40+ a square yard. It really depends on your budget and the quality of the carpet you choose. Most homeowners prefer mid-grade to high mid-grade carpet that is soft, plush and also sturdy. If you fit in that category you are looking at $20-30/square yard. That means a 13×13 room would cost anywhere between $400-600 for brand new carpet, which is not very affordable.
