"They did a great job. Once you make up your mind with what you want, the guys come in and in less than a week it is slam dunk cleaned up and done. They ripped out the old flooring and tear up the old tiles and the demolition was definitely an A experience because the house is over 20 years old. They were well experienced on how to do that. They knocked it right out and kept everything clean. So, that was all good and they did over 1,000 feet of flooring for us. Their price was very competitive and they were very responsive. They were everyday on the phone asking us what we want and we asked them for their expertise and we asked them how things would look like floor boarding and stuff like that. They had all the experience for that and it really worked out well. They did some work across the street with our neighbor so we talked to them and they liked their services and we had been jumping around for over a year on different companies and California Flooring & Design came through really good."

"Beat our expectations. For many years we always wanted crown molding in our past homes, it never happened. Since this is our retirement home we decided to make it happen. My first and only call was to Tim Larkin and Co. I immediately felt he vision, enthusiasm and competence to make our dream come true. His team beat our expectations many times over. Tim proposed things that we never would have thought of and we’re glad he did. The quality of work was outstanding. Tim participated every day with his his. Their work was impeccable. Adjoining seams, angles and paiting still amaze us as well as friends who have seen the work. Finally, important to me was cleanliness. Everyday, our home was left in a livable state. The final day he brought his team back to our home, every inch was reviewed, some minor corrections made and they whet there until we were 100% thrilled. I wholeheartedly would recommend Tim to our friends and neighbors."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

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.

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

Pros use power stretchers that secure the carpet firmly in place.

Maintenance practices include regular vacuuming, prompt spill cleaning, and periodic professional deep-cleaning to remove embedded dirt particles and rejuvenate fibers.
