For any flooring material,
installation remains the single biggest challenge for any homeowner.
Finding a qualified installer can be difficult. Carpet installers have been
under paid for many years, and there are fewer installers entering the trade
than in the past. In buying carpet from a
local retailer, many retailers earn a profit from the installation, and the
carpet installer does not receive the full price charged for the flooring
installation.
Typically, carpet installers are not employees of the carpet
retailer; they are sub contractors hired by the retailer, and they may perform
subcontract work for all of the local retailers in your area. While all
retailers claim "we have the best carpet installers in the area", this is
usually the case for all retailers in the area, because they use the same labor
pool.
These carpet local carpet
installers receive no health benefits, no retirement benefits, and only
receive a portion of the fee charged for their services.
Carpet installation prices have not
increased in more than 30 years. This increases the probability of mistakes with
the carpet installation. In order to
earn an acceptable income, the flooring
installer must perform multiple installation each day in order to remain
above the poverty level. Very few occupations require as much physically
demanding, back-breaking effort for such a low income return. Local carpet
installers are the backbone of the flooring industry.
Many local retailers discourage consumers from
buying carpet online due to installation
issues. Dalton Carpet Wholesalers
can save a consumer as much as 40-60% on he purchase of new carpet. These
carpet wholesalers can help their
customers find a local carpet installer, but the Carpet Buyers Handbook also has
assembled a listing for consumer use. We encourage consumers to use the
money saved from buying carpet wholesale to pay carpet installers a fair wage.
This increased labor rate (paid to the installer) allows the installer to slow
down and provide a quality product for a fair price.
The Florida Carpet Installer listing below has been
assembled from a variety of sources. The Carpet Buyers Handbook does not
endorse any of these carpet installers; they are simply supplied as a service
for site visitors.
