How Much Should I Pay for Berber Carpet?

  1. Uninstalled Prices

    • Reasonable prices for olefin or nylon Berber range, as of September 2010, from $1.50 to $4 per square foot and vary with density -- the amount of fiber per square foot -- and pattern. Typically, the higher the density, the better the wear and the longer the warranty. Wool fiber and multilevel loop patterns cost more.

    Installation Costs

    • Budget 70 cents to $1 per square foot for installation, as of September 2010, if you don't plan to do the job yourself. You'll also need underlay. A good-quality product costs 55 to 70 cents per square foot, while cheaper versions are available for less.

    Bottom Line

    • Installed, an olefin Berber with a five-year warranty and a decent underlay costs, as of September 2010, about $3.00 per square foot. A dense nylon Berber with a 15-year warranty and quality underlay is nearly $6.00 per square foot, installed.
