Hello Ryan:
We are sorry to hear of this inconvenience. This product is available at Home Depot, and therefore Home Depot should facilitate the installation. Due to DMX 1-Step Carpet being a relatively new product, currently only available online, some Home Depot locations are unfamiliar with our carpet pad product. In future, we would encourage you to contact us directly so that we can provide Home Depot with the proper support to complete a successful carpet installation using DMX 1-Step Carpet in your basement. Our customer service line is available 7 days a week at 1-855-501-7837 to assist with any questions you may have.
