Are there any carpet company’s that have written into their contracts to wear indoor shoes or shoe covers (booties) while doing installations? My concern is bad weather conditions and the installers not taking proper precautions to keep my new carpet clean. Some companies I’ve spoken with say it has to be asked before the install or their installers make sure to take proper precautions if the weather is not ideal.
Hi Brad,
While it is in our best interest to make sure the carpet is not dirtied or damaged in any way prior to us completing the job, we would be more than willing to write that into the work order for added piece of mind.
Please call if you have any questions,
