Should I Install New Carpet Before or After Painting?

If you’re wondering whether to install new floors or paint first, here’s what to keep in mind:

• If you choose to have carpet installed first, it can be protected with drop cloths when the painters come in. Same goes for your home furnishings — any reputable painting company will be careful to cover them with plastic prior to the start of the job. At Roman Paint Pros, our painters excel in using these tools to ensure the other elements of your home stay pristine while we do what we do best.
  
• If you opt to have our crew come to your home to paint prior to getting your new flooring, that’s fine! Just be aware, there is a high likelihood that the floor installers will mark up the walls to some extent. Luckily, our painting service includes touch-ups within reason. (If there are major damages, the flooring company should reimburse you.)
  

Whether it works best for your personal home renovation schedule to add new carpet before or after painting, you can count on our meticulous painting crew to deliver outstanding results.
