1,000+ Floors Installed & Restored Across Washington
Searching for carpet installation near me in Seattle? Parking, elevators, a loading-zone permit — city jobs turn on logistics, and that part is ours. What shows up is the showroom: 20+ carpet samples, all three pad grades, opened on your own floor, because the same beige reads one way in a Ballard Craftsman and another in a Capitol Hill townhouse. Every room and stair gets measured, out-of-square corners included, and the written price is yours before the van pulls out.
Serving every Seattle neighborhood plus Shoreline, White Center, Burien, Lake Forest Park & Mercer Island · Same-week slots most weeks
A 1915 Wallingford four-square gets low, warm light; a Belltown condo gets glass and gray sky. The same carpet reads differently in each, so we bring 20+ full-size samples to your rooms rather than asking you to judge a small square on a store rack. We measure every room and stair — including the out-of-square corners old Seattle houses hide — and leave a written, itemized price the same visit. One trip, no guessing, no pressure.
Seattle carpet jobs install at $4–$7 per square foot, all trades included — labor, pad, the carpet itself, fresh tack strip and hauling the old rolls out are all inside that figure. A typical Seattle job runs $2,000 to $4,500; add a staircase to a 1,200 sq ft main floor and the range is $5,500–$8,500. Old houses rarely measure square, so stair count and odd corners matter, but grade swings the total most, and that choice is yours, made on your own floor with the samples down.
Seattle pricing surveyed August 2026; the operative total is written during your free in-home measure.
Book the window and leave the logistics — loading zone, alley or street — to the van. The visit delivers taped rooms, samples in your light, and one settled figure.

Book online or call. Evenings and Saturdays work citywide, so carpet shopping doesn't cost you a day of PTO.
The city load-out spans plush, wool, berber, patterned styles, frieze and pet-tough nylon with all three pads — unrolled in bungalow, condo or four-square alike.
Every room, closet, stair and landing goes on the quote line by line while we're still standing in it — nothing gets added afterward.
Furniture moved, old carpet out and off to the dump, new carpet power-stretched drum-tight. Most Seattle homes take a single day.
These are starting points. Carpet grade, stair shape and how much furniture we're working around all shift the total — the real figure goes in writing at your measure.
Carpet and cushion priced straight from the mill — no Seattle retail rent baked into your square-foot price.
Old houses move; tight carpet doesn't. New tack strip, heat-sealed seams and a full machine stretch hold the field flat through the settling.
Stairs quoted per step, waterfall or cap-and-band. The pie turns and landings old Seattle staircases love are counted up front, never billed after.
A power stretcher pulls ripples, waves and lifted edges back out flat. Good carpet gets years more life for a fraction of what replacement costs.
Old carpet, pad, staples and the dump run — nothing left rolled up in your basement.
The crew shifts beds, sofas and dressers, then sets them back. You handle the small and breakable things.
A moisture-barrier pad that keeps pet accidents out of the subfloor, where lasting odor actually starts.
Flat turn pricing for Seattle rentals and condos — one point of contact, photos when the unit is ready, scheduling built around move-out dates.

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.
Thin cushion is the reason a three-year-old carpet walks like a ten-year-old one. All three grades come in the van.
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, the same arithmetic our estimator brings up your steps — rates genuine, commitment zero. Use it to decide whether to book the visit.
A surprising share of Seattle's “time for new carpet” calls turn out to be stretch jobs — roughly a fifth of the price of replacing. We've been making that call since 2013, and we'll tell you which one you need even when the honest answer is the cheaper one.
Can't tell which side of the line yours is on? Two photos settle it — one close on the worst ripple, one of the whole room. An estimator reads them and emails back a written price before the business day is out: a $99 stretch, or replacement if the carpet is past saving. No appointment, no parking hunt on your street, and no follow-up 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!"

Budget $4 to $7 a square foot installed, with everything inside that number: carpet and pad, the labor, new tack strip, haul-away of the old floor. Most Seattle work totals $2,000 to $4,500. Put a staircase alongside a 1,200 sq ft main floor and you land between $5,500 and $8,500. Grade is the lever that moves the price — you pull it yourself, with samples spread across the room they belong in.
Parking and elevator access are usually the only real questions in Seattle, and those are ours to solve — we'll clear the freight elevator and the loading zone with your building manager. The rest comes to you: 20+ carpet samples, all three pad grades, laid down in the rooms being carpeted so you judge color in your own daylight. Stairs, landings and every room get measured, and the written price stays with you. No charge for the visit.
$99 per room is where stretching starts in Seattle. In older houses the hallway ripples first, and a power stretcher takes those waves and bunched doorway edges back out at about a fifth of replacement cost. While the pile still stands and the shade still works in the room, that is the better place to put the money.
Craftsman staircases turn: pie steps, mid-run landings, tight winders. Each is taped during the measure and priced in the written quote, on steps that start at $18 in waterfall or cap-and-band.
Three or four bedrooms plus the staircase is a day's work in most Seattle houses. Freight-elevator condos and furniture-dense homes can go two — the pace is printed on your quote either way.
On most jobs the heavy furniture — beds, couches, dressers, tables — travels with the crew and returns to its marks. You keep charge of the light and the precious: cords, closet floors, breakables.
In a 1920s bungalow the tell is usually the hallway. If the pile springs back, the backing is intact and the color still works, $99 a room buys a stretch instead of a new floor. Replacement is the honest answer once the traffic lanes are packed flat, seams split, the backing crumbles, or a pet smell survives professional cleaning. Send photos or book a measure and we'll say which one you have before any price is written.
All of them. We're regularly in Ballard, Wallingford, Fremont, Green Lake, Phinney Ridge, Greenwood, Queen Anne, Magnolia, Capitol Hill, Ravenna, Maple Leaf, Wedgwood, Beacon Hill, Columbia City, Mount Baker and West Seattle — plus Shoreline, White Center, Burien and the Eastside.
Odor turns permanent when a pet accident reaches the subfloor, so the pad matters as much as the carpet: a moisture-barrier pad under sealed-back carpet stops liquid there. Above it, solution-dyed nylon holds its color inside the fiber and survives a diluted-bleach cleanup — useful in an old bungalow with original fir underneath. That barrier pad runs $0.65 per square foot and up.
Two warranties, from two different places. The mill stands behind the carpet against wear and stain — 10 to 25 years, depending on grade. OC Flooring's 1-year workmanship warranty covers the install, which matters when a seam opens in a bungalow hallway. Both land on your written quote, and since some mills tie coverage to a minimum pad, all three grades ride along to the measure.
One appointment covers it — samples in your rooms, every stair and odd corner measured, a written price in your hand. It costs nothing, and you can sleep on it as long as you like.
