"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"

"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 questions, answered by experts

You can use a carpet patch to replace a single section of carpet. You’ll cut out the damaged section and then replace it with a caret patch. The patch should be the same color as the existing carpet. You can also hire a professional carpet repair company to get it done. 

When deciding whether to repair or replace your carpet, consider its age, the extent of the damage, and its location. It's often best to replace the entire carpet if the damage is extensive, such as large sections needing replacement, or if it's caused by water, which can lead to mold problems. Similarly, if your carpet is nearing a decade old, replacement is likely the more logical choice. On the other hand, consider repairing your carpet if the damage is localized to one spot, like minor rips or snags, the carpet is still relatively new, or the damage is in a low-traffic area of your home.

Vomit contains organic fluids along with whatever else comes out with it. When left without cleaning, vomit, and its odor can reach deep into carpet fibers and become very difficult to remove without a deep cleaning. In some cases, the combination can cause permanent carpet staining.  

You’ll know if your carpet is stretched enough if it lies completely flat and smooth across your floor. If you have ripples, wrinkled areas, or carpet piling up along the baseboards, these are telltale signs that your carpet is not fully stretched. Release the carpet from the tack strip along one wall and use a stretcher or knee kicker to stretch out the carpet before securing it again.

Hiring a pro to stretch a carpet costs anywhere from $100 to $300, though this price increases if you also task the contractor to remove and replace the furniture from the room. Doing it on your own maxes out at $100, though renting the power stretcher and knee kicker extend the cost in some instances.
