New Floors in Kirksville, MO: How It Works From Measure to Move-In

Most people put off new floors because they don't know what the process looks like. At Kirksville Carpet One on North Baltimore, it comes down to five steps. Here's what happens at each one, so you know what to expect before you call.

1. Visit the showroom

Bring a photo of the room, a rough size, and anything you need the floor to match: cabinets, paint, trim. Walk the samples and take a few home. Floors look different under your own lighting than they do in a store.

2. We measure your home

Someone comes to your house and measures every room on the job. They also check the subfloor, the doorways and the transitions between rooms. That visit is what makes an accurate quote possible.

3. You get a written quote

The quote lists the flooring, the pad or underlayment, removal of the old floor, and installation. If something under your current floor needs fixing, it shows up here, not on install day.

4. Install day

Clear small items and anything fragile out of the room. Ask ahead about moving furniture. Most single rooms finish in a day; whole floors of a house take longer. See how our installation works.

5. Walk-through and care

Before the crew leaves, walk the room with them. You'll get care instructions for your floor, and the Carpet One warranty covers you after.
