Get matched with top carpet stretching pros in Dillingham, AK

If you want to save money on carpet repairs, there are a few ways to save without sacrificing quality. Some options you have include:

• Cleaning set-in stains by renting a steam cleaner or using DIY carpet cleaning methods. 

• Prepare the area for repairing yourself, such as moving furniture, to avoid unnecessary fees.

• Protect high-traffic areas with a runner rug to avoid excessive wear and tear.

The correct method to fix bubbling carpet depends on the cause. If the bubbles are caused by moisture, drying out the carpet can help flatten it. Otherwise, a pro might need to restretch or reinstall the carpet to fix the issue.

You can expect your carpet protection to last about six months to two years. It will last longer in low-traffic areas (compared to busy areas, where your carpet experiences more wear and tear). Once the protector wears off, you’ll need to call your carpet contractor to reapply the stain protection treatment and revive your carpet. 

In addition to having your carpets professionally cleaned, most carpet cleaners offer a range of supplemental services and treatments, including:

• Patching and repairing holes: $100–$250 per hole

• Carpet stretching to remove wrinkles: $60 per hour

• Water extraction: $450–$2,000, depending on square footage

• Pet stain and odor removal: $30–$50 per hour

• Furniture moving and removal: $10–$50 per item

• Padding replacement: $4–$7 per square foot

• Teflon treatment: $20–$40 per project
