Shopping for New Carpet - Help!

We want to recarpet our living room - (not ready for the whole house yet), and I am need to find a good, reasonably priced carpet store in the area. We went to Lowe's to get some color samples, and we'd be looking at over $700 just to carpet one room through them! that seems ridiculous to me.
So, first question - what is a "normal" cost (carpet+pad+install) for a room approx. 20x12? and 2nd question - where have you had good experiences? (we live in Cuyahoga Falls)

What can I do next?

I can't remember how much I paid, but I had a good experience at Carpet Liquidators right by Chapel Hill Mall. It was nice carpet and the price was right.

We have always used Kings Carpet on South Arlington Rd. They sell remnants, but they are very professional and they have excellent prices. We have been very pleased with all of the carpet and installation that we have received from them. They are on the outskirts of Springfield.

I carpeted a whole basement (an area probably 3 or 4 times larger than your living room) for about $1800. I went to Belden Village Carpet. It's on Belden Village Street, across from Wendy's. Hope that helps!

Hi M.. I am an interior designer and I know this won't help you, but we re-carpeted our basement (with a boring berber) in our last house (had to due to a flood) which was 2 rooms about that size (one probably smaller) (we left the hall carpet cause it wasn't damaged). it was cheaper (and faster) for us to go through empire then me using my "trade/ cost" resources--and it was $1400! so honestly, I think that's a good price. does that include pad and install? try empire and home depot to compare prices. I think the estimates are free and they come to your home and bring samples. you can also pay by credit card--which was helpful for us at the time.

were you prego when you lost #2? I am so sorry to hear that. best of luck to you. we are thinking of trying for #2, but it's a long process cause we have to do ivf. we're most likely doing a frozen cycle this fall, and if it doesn't work, my son will most likely be an only. I am ambivilant. hoping for a healthy baby, but trying not to get my hopes up too much if it doesn't work.

good luck with the carpet. C.
