    Upgrading your home or commercial space with new carpet doesn’t have to break the bank. Thankfully, there’s an option where customers can keep costs down while still receiving great carpeting that suits their needs.

    SMART Carpet and Flooring offers a vast selection of carpets from top brands for customers in our service areas of New Jersey, Staten Island, and eastern Pennsylvania. Here, we discuss how customers can save money on new carpet installation when they choose to work with the experienced and trusted team at SMART Carpet and Flooring.

    The SMART Carpet and Flooring Difference

    Choosing the right carpet provider and installer is crucial for several reasons. Not only is an experienced and reliable installer important for getting the most out of your carpet but working with the right company can also help you save money.

    At SMART Carpet and Flooring, our team members are committed to providing an unmatched customer experience. This mission goes beyond our vast selection of top-quality products. SMART Carpet and Flooring helps reduce the cost of new flooring by providing many services for free, while other contractors may charge for them. Our free guarantee includes the following:

    Mill Direct Flooring

    As opposed to a traditional carpet or furniture store, SMART Carpet and Flooring is a Mill-Direct buying service. This means instead of purchasing flooring products from a supplier, who buys them from a producer, you buy directly from the producer. As such, you can save up to 50% off carpet and flooring compared to typical store prices. You’ll never pay store prices again.

    Free Premium Padding

    Other flooring providers may not include padding in their prices. Customers can expect to pay up to $5 per yard for padding at other stores. When you purchase carpet from SMART Carpet and Flooring, padding is included. Every carpet we carry comes with SMART Foam Premium Padding. All cut pile installed carpet comes with the 6-pound, 7/16-inch version, and commercial carpet comes with an 8-pound, 5/16-inch version. Traditional felt padding is available, as well. All padding options are recommended by The Carpet and Rug Institute.

    Free Furniture Moving

    Clearing out furniture for new carpeting to be installed can cause a great deal of stress for customers. What’s more, many stores charge an extra $50 per room for this service. At SMART Carpet and Flooring, we offer this service for free. Our team will carefully move most of your furniture free of charge. However, oversized items such as pool tables, pianos, and extra-large televisions, and furniture that requires disassembly may warrant a small fee.

    Free Standard Stair Work

    For stair work, you may have to pay extra when you work with other carpet providers and installers. Most stores charge as much as an additional $15 per step for standard box steps. The total could be as much as $195 additional for a typical flight of stairs. Customers are offered this free of charge at SMART Carpet and Flooring. Custom stair work is additional.

    Free Measuring Layout

    Correct carpet installation requires precise measurements. All SMART Carpet and Flooring representatives are trained professionals and know how to accurately measure the areas you want to upgrade. Our team will draw an accurate floor plan with a carpet or flooring layout. Other companies may charge as much as $100 for this service and only agree to waive the fee if you buy from them. With SMART Carpet and Flooring, this service is free.

    Other Ways to Save

    In addition to these services, SMART Carpet and Flooring offers more ways to help customers save money. Customers are welcome to browse our current deals to get the best price on a new carpet. We regularly offer exclusive discount flooring options and unparalleled deals on quality carpeting to help make your new carpet more affordable.

    To help make paying for your new carpet more manageable, SMART Carpet and Flooring also offers flooring financing. This special financing offer includes no interest if the amount is paid in full within 12 months of purchase.

    Save on Carpet Installation at SMART Carpet and Flooring

    Louie was our Smart Carpet sales representative for our home in Somerset County. Louie was extremely helpful in helping us decide on the best option for our carpet needs. He was extremely knowledgeable on all of the products that were offered and explained everything in great detail and made great recommendations. Louie went the extra mile in contacting the warehouses to ensure that the selection that we made was available and could be installed in a timely manner. The installation team that arrived a few days later to install the carpet was meticulous with their work and the carpet came out perfect. Louie followed up with us every step of the way including after the carpet installation to make sure that we had no issues even days after the installation. We will be contacting Louie in the near future for our additional carpet needs and we highly recommend using Smart Carpet for your carpet needs.

    Hired Smart Carpet to install new carpeting in the common areas of one of the buildings in our condo association. Couldn’t be happier with the results. These folks wet incredibly easy to work with. Within a week or so after accepting the proposal, the installers were there. Incredibly hard workers. I was concerned about damage to the somewhat newly painted walls and baseboards, but this was not an issue. I would like to mention too that the salesman, Adam, was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this company! One last thing, the proposal could not be beat by another carpet company.

    Worked with SmartCarpet as they are the authorized dealers who work with Costco. My estimate was done by John who was great. He reviewed all the options and was professional and through. I did have some issues during my installation but was contacted by SmartCarpet once I gave the feedback. We discussed some areas of improvement and Jude reviewed the process and offered solutions along w/ a direct number for further communication.

    Five years ago Smart Carpet put down an engineered floor throughout my new condo, five rooms. It became apparent that the flooring was not holding up well. Smart carpet addressed the issue by replacing parts of the floor. But addition issues kept cropping up. I spoke with John N, my sales rep, who came and examined the floor. He came up with a plan to replace the flooring in my entire condo after five years of use!! He replaced it with a totally new flooring that eliminated all the pitfalls that were associated with the previous product. It has now been six months since my new floor was put down. There are absolutely no issues. The installation is fabulous. I waited this long to write the review so I could see if issues developed. There are none. I couldn’t be happier. The only cost to me was the difference in the cost of the original flooring to the new flooring, minor indeed. The bottom line is that Smart Carpet stands behind their products and their installers. They value their customers!!

    We just had 5 rooms, a hallway and stairs carpeted in our Bergen County home.Our experience with Smart Carpet was wonderful. The sales rep, Louie was professional, prompt and extremely efficient. He took a great deal of time to show us our options and explain the difference between each of them. The installers arrived on time on the scheduled day and worked non stop throughout the day. This included tearing up the old carpet and moving all the furniture which we had emptied previously. We are very pleased with the final product. They are an excellent and professional company to do business with. Thank you Smart Carpet and Flooring.

    We recently had beautiful floors installed and could not be happier with the outcome. With 3 dogs and 4 cats, we needed something durable, but also beautiful. Our sales rep, Louie, walked us through the entire process and helped us make an amazing choice. Our new floors gave the entire first floor a face lift. So easy to clean! We were also thrilled that they service the Sussex County area! if I could give 10 stars I would. The financing also made this incredibly affordable for us.

    Today, Smart Carpet installed the third carpet in my house. I cannot say enough about this organization. Nicole, the salesperson, was very patient and professional and knew her product well. This is the second time I have had the pleasure of dealing with Nichole. Joe Orlando sold me my first carpet and he was also a professional, pleasant individual. Sam, the installer of the third carpet, was very kind and helpful and made the entire experience stress free. I have recommended Smart Carpet to many friends and I will continue to do so because they are highly reputable. I would highly recommend Smart Carpet and their staff without reservation.
