Basement and Below-Grade Carpet in Atlanta, GA

Basements need carpet chosen for the conditions rather than carpet chosen for a living room. Concrete slabs pass moisture vapour continuously, even when they read completely dry to the touch, and standard rebond pad with a natural-fibre backing in that environment is how a basement develops a smell nobody can locate.

Synthetic backing, a moisture-tolerant pad and in many cases carpet tile rather than broadloom are the specification that actually works below grade. Carpet tile has a second advantage worth knowing: after a leak, a section can be lifted and replaced rather than the whole room.

Carpe Diem Floors assesses the slab at the measure across Atlanta, GA and specifies to what is actually there rather than to a catalogue default.

There is a test you can run yourself before we arrive. Tape a square of plastic sheet tightly to the slab overnight. Condensation underneath it in the morning means vapour is moving through, and that changes the entire specification.

Basement And Below-Grade Carpet FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Basement and Below-Grade Carpet

Questions we hear most often about Basement and Below-Grade Carpet in Atlanta, GA.

Talk to a real person
What carpet pad should I get?
8lb rebond is the residential standard. Lighter pad breaks down early and shortens the life of the carpet above it. Pad thicker than 7/16 of an inch voids most manufacturer warranties because the backing flexes too far.
Can I put carpet in a basement?
Yes, with synthetic backing, a moisture-tolerant pad, and often carpet tile rather than broadloom so a section can be lifted and replaced after a leak. Slabs pass moisture vapour even when they feel dry.
Will you find problems under my old carpet?
Sometimes, and we would rather tell you. Squeaks, soft spots and water staining are all cheap to fix while the subfloor is exposed and expensive once new carpet is over them.
What is the difference between plush and frieze?
Twist level. Frieze has the highest twist, so the fibres stand up and hide footprints and vacuum lines. Plush shows every one of them. Frieze is the practical choice for a busy household.
How do I get an estimate in Atlanta, GA?
Call (888) 984-0848 and we book an in-home measure. Samples come to you, because showroom lighting flatters carpet in a way that living rooms do not.
