"They answered their phone! Came out the same day to give me an estimate to stretch my rugs and were able to do the job the next day. I was very impressed with this company from start to finish. I would highly recommend them."

"Pros from start to fantastic finish. Horacio came in and gave us an estimate we thought was such a good deal, we added a room and a stairwell carpeting and we could still afford it. He was courteous, listened to questions, and took time to answer. We told him we would get back to him after our other estimates. The national company with the phone number jingle came next. The first thing that person did was talk trash about a competitor, try to scare us that only a structural engineer could possibly handle our (lumpy, slopey) floor, and while he was coming up with an estimate number, told us "the chinamen in my tablet are taking a long time thinking about this." Generally against racism, so we knew he was out, but he scared us with his floor assessment. We called VRP back and explained our concerns, and Horacio came out AGAIN the very next day (free of charge), heard the concerns, and came up with a solution that did not increase our estimate. We scheduled right then. When the work day came, they were on time and went straight to it. They worked 8 to 3 ripping out our old carpet and installing new carpet and vinyl plank. It looks amazing!! They must have structural engineers in the family, because the "issue" the national guy tried to scare us with was no issue for them. I really couldn't be happier. I'll call them to re-do the kitchen floors when we're ready. Hire these people, you will be so happy you did. Check out the before and after of the stairs and the floor! Less"

"Maximo completed my basement and kitchen. He did exceptional work, not only did it come out to be beautiful but everything was great quality. Price was fair and he followed through with everything that he said he would do. He came when he said he would and was very respectful and friendly. I’ve been getting compliments from his jobs and would definitely recommend him for any of your flooring needs!"

"sunset tropical is very professional and knows how to clean a house. She also offers carpet cleaning through her brother-in-law, and he is fantastic. I hired her to clean both the house I moved out of and the one I moved into, and my former landlord said he was impressed at how clean the house was. I've used other cleaning companies, but maria and her team have been the best so far. She is now cleaning my current house bi-weekly"

Carpet Stretching FAQs, answered by experts

Professional carpet repair services offer cost-effective solutions for damage such as burns, stains, and tears. Professionals utilize advanced tools and techniques, ensuring quality restoration that extends the carpet's life and preserves its appearance.

Professionals ensure effective adhesion by choosing the right adhesive for the materials, preparing surfaces properly, and applying pressure as needed. This attention to detail ensures durable connections in various applications from construction to repairs.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.

The best solvent for removing carpet glue depends on its chemical composition. Most carpet glue reacts well to a solvent made from orange oil. Use mineral spirits to remove tar-based glue, which has a darker, brownish tint. Methylene chloride paint stripper and lacquer thinner should also work, but beware of the nasty and dangerous fumes.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.
