I've viewed this house and can say that it's lovely. Well thought out and finished beautifully, I'm not so sure about the area and can't comment on the price, but the house is the nicest place I've looked at in brooklyn.

The nicest I have seen (and have installed in my house in london) is http://www.rogeroates.com/ if you have a curved stair this is not a self install job although they do not cut the runner (or didn't with mine)
They are also crazy expensive, but I didn't find anything else nearly as good. I looked, a lot.

we heard that carpet remnants from huge remnant companies can give a great price if your doing a stairway, carpet or runners. does anyone know where to but these remnants?
most remnants place around here don't seem to have enough to carpet a 5 story stairway.

I use (and highly recommend) Long Island Carpet Cleaners, on Norman Avenue in Greenpoint. They pick rugs up, but give a 20% discount if you drop them off.

I also used Long Island Carpet Cleaners and was satisfied. I miss the old Cline's on Union Street, but you cannot turn back the clock.

Don't bring them anywhere. I used this company York & Jersey to pick them up for free, lol. They clean great! I had one of them with a damage where my dog ate the carpet. They repaired it very nice. Here is their link www.carpetcleaningnewyorkandjersey.com

There's a carpet place on atlantic between nevins and 3rd, can't remember the name but they did a rug for me. Decent job and pretty cheap $80 for a 10x5 (I think).
