Can a bedroom and closet get new carpet in one day?
The goal here was simple: replace worn carpet in a bedroom and its adjoining closet. Bedroom carpet wears down through daily foot traffic, and once the padding beneath it compresses, the floor feels flat and tired even after cleaning. This project used Shaw Good Move III carpet with new padding across approximately 234 square feet.
Because the scope was focused — removal of the worn carpet, new padding, and new carpet in two connected spaces — the work was completed in about half a day, and no doorway or transition work was required.

Shaw Good Move III with new padding. We installed it across the bedroom and adjoining closet — about 234 square feet.
