Here are the carpet textures we recommend most often for St. Croix Valley homes, based on comfort, foot traffic, and budget.
Not sure which texture fits your household? Bring us a photo of the room, tell us who uses it most, and we will point you toward two or three samples worth taking home. There is no wrong answer here, just the right fit for your floor and your budget.
A smooth, soft surface that feels great underfoot in bedrooms and living rooms.
Twisted, curly fibers that hide footprints and vacuum lines in busy households.
Tight, durable loops built for basements, home offices, and high-traffic hallways.
A textured, patterned look that adds character to dining rooms and stairs.
Good carpet starts with good installation.
Our CFI-certified installation crews take care of the details, from properly stretching and seaming your carpet to making sure everything is finished neatly.
We want your new carpet to look great and stay comfortable underfoot for years to come, not just when it’s first installed.
Every carpet installation from Carpeting By Mike also includes a 10-year installation warranty. We’ll take care of the heavy lifting, including moving furniture and cleaning up when the job is done.

Our showroom sits at 405 Laser Dr in Somerset, but our installers travel throughout the region for carpet measurements and installations.
In Wisconsin, we regularly install carpet in Somerset, Hudson, New Richmond, River Falls, Baldwin, Amery, Osceola, Star Prairie, and Roberts. Across the river in Minnesota, we serve Stillwater, Woodbury, Oak Park Heights, Lake Elmo, and the surrounding St. Croix communities.
Most of our carpet customers fall within a 30 to 45 minute drive of our Somerset showroom, but if you are outside that radius, give us a call. We are happy to talk through what is possible for your home.
We show up on parade floats too. Our team has ridden the same giant rhino float in local St. Croix Valley parades for the last ten years, and we take community involvement as seriously as we take carpet installation.
We get asked a lot of the same questions from homeowners across Somerset, Hudson, and New Richmond. Here are the answers that come up most.
Carpet installation in the St. Croix Valley typically runs $3.50 to $9 per square foot installed, including carpet and pad. Budget-friendly Berber and loop styles sit at the lower end, while premium SmartStrand or Karastan cost more. Your final price depends on room size and fiber type. We will give you an exact number after a free in-home measurement.
We carry Mohawk carpet, including SmartStrand and Everstrand, plus Karastan for a more premium, designer look. All three brands hold up well in Wisconsin homes with kids and pets. Our showroom in Somerset has samples of each on display, and you are welcome to take any of them home before you decide.
Most single rooms are finished in a few hours to one day. A whole-house carpet job usually takes one to three days, depending on square footage and how much furniture needs to move. Stairs and hallways add a little extra time because of the detail work involved. We will walk you through a realistic timeline before your installation begins.
For busy households, we usually recommend SmartStrand or another built-in stain-resistant fiber. These carpets shed spills and pet accidents better than standard nylon, and a tighter Berber or loop style hides wear from paws and toys. Bring your family's habits up during your showroom visit, and we will point you toward the styles that actually fit your life.
Yes, every estimate is free with no pressure to buy on the spot. Start with a visit to our Somerset showroom to pick your favorites, then take samples home. After that, we schedule a free in-home measurement and give you a written quote before any work begins. It's simple and honest.
