Ypsilanti flooring and remodeling services
Area rugs solve problems wall-to-wall flooring cannot. They define seating areas in open-plan rooms, soften echo on hardwood and tile, add color and pattern without committing to it permanently, and protect the floor underneath in high-wear areas. Picking the right size and material for the room is the trick.
We carry area rugs in standard sizes (5x7, 8x10, 9x12) and can source custom sizes from broadloom or remnant flooring when a stock rug doesn't fit. Common picks are wool for living rooms, synthetic for high-traffic family rooms, and indoor-outdoor for porches and patios.
We will help you size the rug correctly to the room (the most common mistake is going too small) and pick a material that fits the use case. Sometimes the best 'area rug' is actually a custom-cut piece from leftover broadloom carpet — same material, exactly the size you need, much less expensive than retail.

How it works
We handle every step under one roof — no subcontractors, no project managers, no surprises mid-project.
We come to you, measure the space, and walk through your goals, timeline, and budget. No high-pressure pitch — just an honest read of what the project takes.
We bring samples or invite you to the showroom so you can see materials in person. Once you pick, we order through our distributor network so you get dealer pricing.
We schedule installation around your calendar, confirm prep details (furniture moving, old material removal, subfloor checks), and lock in start and finish dates.
Our team handles the install start to finish. No subcontractors. Site is kept clean during the work, and we communicate every day if the project takes more than one day.
We do a final walkthrough together to make sure every transition, edge, and detail meets your expectations before we call the job done.
Why H & T Carpet Floors
What Our Customers Say
Don't take our word for it , here's what our customers have to say.
Needed carpet in my basement and H & T was fantastic. Quick, clean, and very affordable. So happy with how it turned out.
“Had luxury vinyl installed in our kitchen and bathrooms. The crew was professional and the floors look amazing. Highly recommend!”
“Tojo and his team replaced all the flooring in our home. Hardwood downstairs, carpet upstairs. Excellent work and fair pricing.”
Frequently asked
The most common rule of thumb: in a living room, all sofas and chairs should have at least their front legs on the rug; in a dining room, the rug should extend past chair legs even when chairs are pushed back; in a bedroom, the rug should extend two to three feet beyond the sides and foot of the bed. We help you measure at the in-home consult.
Yes. We cut and bind custom-size area rugs from broadloom or remnant carpet. This is often the right call when a standard size doesn't fit your room — same look, exact dimensions, usually less expensive than buying a retail rug in an awkward size.
Yes — almost always. Rug pads prevent slipping (safety), protect the floor underneath, and add comfort underfoot. The right pad depends on the floor below (hardwood, LVP, tile) and the rug type. We pick it for you at the consult.
With the right pad, no — pads protect the floor from rug-back fibers and trap any dirt that works its way under the rug. Without a pad, some rug backings can scratch or discolor hardwood over time.
Vacuum regularly. Spot-clean spills immediately with a clean cloth and water. Most rugs benefit from a professional cleaning every 1-3 years. Wool rugs need wool-safe cleaners; synthetic rugs are more forgiving.
Yes. We carry premium and standard rug pads in stock and can size them to your existing rug.
