"Mr. Oliver was very punctual and meticulous with his job. He took charge of getting my basement back and after dealing with an unpleasant insurance rep, Mr. Oliver took care of fixing the walls, painting and carpeting. He was always calling or texting me to ask me questions about my preferences. The basement looks wonderful."

"I have worked with Brian for many years.  In the past, he has removed the soffit from the front of my house in preparation for painting it.  He also installed a new front door.  Inside, he replaced carpeting in the upstairs bedroomsand installed a fan in the family room - with no electrical box in the ceiling prior to installation. 
I just had him do a kitchen and bathroom remodel.  In the kitchen, he took out all the cabinets, countertops, appliances and
fluorescent light fixture.  Brian installed recessed lighting in it's place, repaired and painted the ceiling.  This meant adding new circuits for these lights as well as the new under cabinet lighting. New cabinets with crown molding, sink and faucet, granite countertops, garbage disposal,  and appliances were brought into my small working kitchen with extreme effiency.  In the middle of the job, my hot water heater went.  Within 36 hours he had a new one delivered and running.
The 2 bathrooms required taking vanities, tiolets and the shower/tub out.  Brian installed new vanities, granite countertops, sinks and faucets, toilets and a tub with a shower surround.  This invovled new plumbing and carpentry as nothing was plumb!  He also replaced the light fixture with a light /exhaust fan combo. 
One thing leads to another, so I decided to Have him remove an old fan from the stairwelland put recessed lights in it's place.  I wanted a fan in my bedroom, again with no electricy source in the ceiling so he did all the electrical work to make that happen. 
His work is impeccable.  I am so impressed with his knowledge and skill set.  My basement is the next thing I want to do.  I'll be calling Brian again when I'm ready for that job!

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Through accurate measurements and dye matching to the original finishes.

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.

There are many types of carpet repairs that you might experience in your home, depending on the activity level in your home. Snags and tears are relatively common, especially if you have pets or tend to move furniture around often. Some other carpet repairs you might need include:

  • Burn damage

  • Water damage

  • Pet damage

  • Loose carpet 

  • Severe stains
