"I recently moved into a new home in Middletown and needed some new carpet. I’ve never had to have carpet installed in a home so I had lots of questions. Roberto got back to me in a timely manner and made everything very easy for me. I appreciate that the only real job I had in it all was picking the style of carpet that best suited my family and I. Communication was quick and easy and he was very professional. I’ll definitely be recommending his services to family and friends."

"Warm, friendly and professional, would best describe our experience with Simon Rayon and his team. This company isn't adverse to taking on small jobs and completing them in an expediant fashion. Quite creative as well, displaying impressive skills in problem solving with this specific job. Needed a custom section of wood floor trim to be used as a carpet transition strip, between a bedroom and the hallway, where an old seam would no longer stretch long enough to hide the seam itself. Simon created the transition strip on the spot with a sample of some wood flooring planks I had been holding as back up. Quite impressed with Simon's abilities, plus we were not charged a penny more for this additional work, which was not part of the original quote that was also quite reasonable. AAA++++ HIGHLY RECOMEND!"

"We have a lot of carpet that need to be cleaned and stretched and I cannot sing enough praise for All American. They were thorough, didn't cut any corners, and got the job quickly for how much work/furniture needed to be shuffled around. Highly recommend them and I would use them again without a second thought."

"I'm 70 years old & became a widow a year ago. I had a list of "Honey-Do" that was getting longer & longer. I finally reached out to Howard & he came right over. I handed him a list & he did everything that I asked him to do promptly. He will be my go-to-guy going forward & it is truly a relief knowing that I do have someone like Howard to take care of things that happen around here in my home especially that I'm alone now."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

Decent carpet will last around 10 years on stairs. Some less durable carpets, like polyester, will only last five years on stairs. The ideal carpet, like wool or nylon, can last about 15 to 25 years. You’ll know when to replace it when it starts wearing down. You may have to replace it sooner if it's stained, whether due to water damage or pets.

Most people realize it is time to replace the padding when the carpet loses springiness or feels thin and unsupportive. Other telltale signs are lumps or dips in the carpet that could look unattractive or cause tripping hazards. Similarly, if your carpet is making a crinkly sound or starting to wear out prematurely, you might need to replace your padding.

It’s best to have a pro stretch your carpet before having it cleaned. A loose carpet is more difficult to clean, but a stretched carpet will be fixed firmly in place once the job is done. Cleaning a carpet can loosen it depending on the technique used. 

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.

Regular vacuuming, deep cleaning, and prompt stain removal help maintain appearance and durability.
