1,000+ Floors Installed & Restored Across Washington
Searching for carpet installation near me in Kenmore? Most of Kenmore went up in the sixties and seventies as split-levels and daylight basements — a half-flight up to the bedrooms, another down to the rec room. Carpet here has to handle stairs as much as floors. The van comes to you with 20+ carpet samples plus all three pad grades, you judge color in your own rooms, and we measure every level and half-flight before writing your price.
Serving every Kenmore neighborhood plus Lake Forest Park, Bothell, Brier, Shoreline & Kirkland · Same-week visits most weeks
A three-inch swatch under fluorescent tubes tells you nothing about how carpet will read in your rec room at 7 pm. We pull up with 20+ full-size samples, lay them out where your light actually falls, walk every level and half-flight with a tape measure — and you're holding a written, itemized price when we go. One visit. No guessing. No pressure.
Kenmore carpet, installed and finished, prices between $4 and $7 per square foot once you count carpet, pad, labor, fresh tack strip and haul-away of the old. The typical Kenmore job runs $2,000 to $4,500. Add a 1,200 sq ft main floor with a staircase and it's more like $5,500–$8,500, since split-level stairs carry their own labor. What you spend rides mostly on the grade you pick — off your own floor, not a store rack.
Reflects Kenmore work as of August 2026. The controlling figure is always the written free-measure quote.
Book it and the van appears at the curb. One appointment settles everything a store can't: how each sample reads in your rooms, what every half-flight measures, and the exact figure you'd pay.

Call or book online. We keep evening and Saturday windows open in Kenmore, so picking carpet doesn't cost you a workday.
All three pad grades plus plush, pet-rated nylon, wool, frieze, patterned styles and berber — carried in and laid out where each would actually go.
Every level — upstairs, main, daylight basement — and each half-flight, itemized in writing on the spot. The final number, not a draft.
Furniture moved, old carpet pulled and hauled off, new carpet power-stretched drum-tight. Most Kenmore homes take one day.
These are starting numbers, not final ones. Carpet grade, how your stairs are built and how full the rooms are all shift the total — the visit puts the real figure in writing.
Carpet and cushion priced straight from the mills. There's no Kenmore retail floor space to pay for, so you don't pay for it.
Drum-tight is the standard: replace the tack strip, heat-fuse the seams, run the power stretcher in every room. Ripples never get a head start.
Stairs priced per step, waterfall or cap-and-band. Split-level half-flights, landings and winders all go in the quote up front — nothing surfaces later.
A power stretcher pulls ripples, humps and lifted edges back out flat. You keep carpet you still like for a fraction of what new costs.
Old carpet, pad, staples and the dump run — all gone. Nothing left stacked beside your garage.
The crew handles beds, couches and dressers both directions. You just box up the small and breakable things.
A moisture-barrier cushion keeps pet accidents on top of the pad instead of soaking into the subfloor, where odor settles in for good.
Flat turn-ready pricing for Kenmore rentals and ADUs — one contact, photos when the unit's done, scheduled around move-out dates.
Get volume pricing →Eight styles cover nearly every Kenmore house, from Moorlands split-levels to the new townhomes near the Burke-Gilman. After a look we didn't bring? We'll pull the three closest options from the mills and come back.
Smooth and soft underfoot. Bedrooms and rooms nobody runs through.
Hides footprints and vacuum marks. The safe answer for a whole house.
Tight curl that shrugs off traffic. Hallways, stairs, houses with kids.
Flecked, dense, cheap to live with. Basements, bonus rooms, rentals.
Quiet geometry for the stairs and hallway guests actually look at.
Sealed backing, bleach-cleanable fiber. Dogs win, the carpet survives.
Natural fiber, deepest color, ages the best. Primary bedrooms.
Flat and dense — the lowest cost per year of use. Offices and turns.
A thin pad is why five-year-old carpet feels worn out. All three grades ride along in the van so you can stand on each one yourself.
Fine for guest rooms and rentals.
Keeps the plush feel and the mill warranty.
Spills stay on top of the pad, not in the plywood.
Below is the same arithmetic we bring to your kitchen table — rates and all. It can't be a quote, but it tells you honestly where the project lands.
A lot of Kenmore carpet that looks finished really just needs a stretch — about a fifth of the cost of replacing it. We'll say so straight, even though the stretch is the smaller ticket for us.
Can't tell which job yours is? Two phone photos settle it — one tight on the ripple, one wide enough to take in the room, whether that's the upstairs hall or the lower-level rec room. The answer comes back plain: a $99 stretch, or the carpet is finished. A written price is in your inbox the same business day. No visit, no sales call.

"The installers were great! The floor is exactly what we wanted. They also did the stairs, which were carpet. We worked with OC Flooring previously — highly recommend!"
"They placed plastic sheeting over the cabinets to contain the dust, so we noticed hardly any. The floors look as good or better than new. Would definitely recommend."
"We chose them because they were professional and top-notch. The work was smooth, fast and cost-effective — such skill and precision!"

A split-level puts more square footage in play than people count. The rate runs $4 to $7 a square foot, installed: labor, pad, carpet, new tack strip and removal of the old are all inside that number. Most Kenmore projects total $2,000 to $4,500. Put 1,200 sq ft of main floor and one staircase together and it's usually $5,500 to $8,500. Grade is the biggest variable, and you pick it at home off your own floor.
Kenmore is right on the regular route — Moorlands, Arrowhead, Uplake, down by Log Boom Park. Bohdan pulls up with all three pad grades and 20+ carpet samples, sets them down in the rooms being recarpeted so you read the color under your own windows, measures top to bottom, and leaves the written price with you. It's free, and there's no showroom trip.
$99 per room is where stretching starts. Lower-level bonus rooms are prime ripple territory — long spans, heavy use — and a power stretcher pulls them flat again, buckles and lifted edges included, for about a fifth of the cost of new carpet. Worth doing whenever the pile still bounces back and you're not tired of the color.
A Kenmore split-level rarely has one long staircase — it has two short ones. Both flights price from $18 a step, waterfall or cap-and-band, and every landing or winder between them is taped into the written quote before anything is booked.
Up-and-down splits are a single crew-day here: bedrooms above, rec room below, both half-flights between. Add heavy furniture through the whole house and day two appears — on the quote, before it appears in your week.
The big lifting is built into the job — beds, tables, couches, dressers travel with the crew and come back to position. You pre-clear the light things: closet floors, lamps, cords and whatever is breakable or dear.
It comes down to what's underneath. Backing still sound, pile that springs back, a color you haven't given up on — stretch it, $99 per room. Crushed traffic lanes, split seams, backing turning to powder, or pet odor that outlasted a professional cleaning — that's replacement. In a split-level the levels often age at different rates, so the answer can be stretch upstairs and replace below. The read comes before the quote.
All of Kenmore — Moorlands, Arrowhead, Inglewood, Uplake, Lakepointe and the blocks off Bothell Way downtown — plus the neighbors: Lake Forest Park, Sheridan Beach, Finn Hill, Juanita, Brier, Bothell and Shoreline. Within about an hour of Kenmore, the van still comes.
Start with the pad. A moisture barrier keeps accidents out of the subfloor, which is where odor turns permanent — and it matters twice over on a daylight-basement slab. The barrier pad starts at $0.65 a square foot. On top of it, solution-dyed nylon with a sealed backing: color locked into the fiber, so diluted bleach cleans it without fading.
The pad you choose can decide whether the mill warranty holds up, which is the real reason all three pad grades ride along to the measure. Coverage comes in two parts: OC Flooring's 1-year warranty on the labor — seams, stretch, stair wraps, which a split-level has plenty of — and the mill's own on the carpet, 10 to 25 years of wear-and-stain protection depending on grade. Both are printed on your quote.
One appointment covers it: samples compared against your own paint and daylight, every level and staircase measured, and a firm written price in hand before we go. It's free, and nobody asks you to decide on the spot.
