Ponte Vedra, FL
New carpet from Gator Carpet and Tile comes with new pad, new tack strip where it is needed, and a tight stretch with a power stretcher. Carpet comes on 12-foot-wide rolls, so a room wider than 12 feet in both directions needs a seam. We keep seams out of doorways and walkways where the room allows. Want to see where the seams will go? Ask and we'll show you at the measure, before you buy. Ponte Vedra's oceanfront location brings all the coastal moisture challenges of Atlantic Beach and Jacksonville Beach, amplified in homes directly on the ocean or Intracoastal. In Ponte Vedra, we frequently specify engineered hardwood over solid hardwood even in interior rooms — the ambient humidity swings are simply too significant for solid wood to perform reliably without exceptional HVAC management.
In-stock carpet runs $1.50–$3.50 per square foot installed with new pad. Special order runs $3.50–$5, and premium $5–$10+. When new carpet replaces old carpet, we tear out and haul away the old carpet free. Stairs are $200 flat per staircase (pie steps, spiral stairs and custom wraps extra). Furniture moving is included in our All-In carpet packages; on in-stock carpet it is a separate line at $0.60/sq ft. $500 job minimum.
Most homes are done in one day. Carpet comes on 12-foot-wide rolls, so a room wider than 12 feet both ways needs a seam. Want to see where the seams will go? Ask and we'll show you at the measure, before you buy.

Ponte Vedra's housing ranges from oceanfront estates and custom golf-community builds in gated communities like Sawgrass Country Club, Marsh Landing, and Plantation Oaks, to newer luxury townhomes and condominiums along the A1A and US-1 corridors. Flooring projects here often include whole-home renovations combining large-format tile, wide-plank engineered hardwood, and premium carpet in bedrooms.
