What is the best way to do carpet patching?
I have had a 5 foot archway opened up between two rooms in my house. Both rooms are carpeted, leaving flooring where the wall was. We have built up the floor in the space to match the level of the existing floors in each room. I have remnants from having the carpet installed and I am wondering how to best patch the area. Should I add padding to level off the patch with the existing carpet. Would I use two sided sticking tape or glue? Also, should the remnant be cut a little larger to blend in with existing carpet and then is there a tool to use to help it blend in? Thank you for any assistance.

How often does carpet need to be replaced in apartments in Illinois?
We have lived in the same apartment for 3 years in Schaumburg, Illinois and we will be moving out in November. The carpet is very light and after 3 years it has picked up so many stains and discolorations that will not come out. We don’t want to lose our security deposit over the carpet having to be replaced. If you have an answer for me please source where you found it so I can use that. The management at the complex are not honest with anyone and I will need to have something to back this up with.

What kind of carpet pad to use for noise reduction?
My landlord requested to cover 80% of a hard-wood floor with a carpet after my neighbor below complained on footstep noise. They say they may accept rugs but only with padding. I am only able to find pads helping to protect carpets from wearing and stop rugs slipping on a floor but not to cancel the noise. Solution must be cheap. Professional acoustic pads like the ones for sound recording studios are too expensive.
