I’m Extending A Closet To A Walk-in. There Is Existing Carpet In The Room. What Is The Best Way To Build It?

The room is carpeted and i am looking for a smooth transition once i add a door. Probably adding a regular door on hinges. I’m building it by exending existing walls already carpeted up to. What is the best way to go about this without ripping up all the carpet. Can i build over existing carpet..frame it right over it?

Can I Build A Wall And Attach It To Carpet?

I want to build a wall in my basement. My house inspector found asbestos tiles beneath the carpet, so I’m reluctant to nail through the carpet, through the tiles into the concrete. So, can I use some sort of adhesive to attach the bottom of the wall to the carpet and nail the top and sides of the wall to the existing structure?
