"Phillip Boulden is not just a carpet stretcher, he's a carpet stretching expert. He knows more about carpet stretching than you can imagine exists and he loves what he does. When he stretches carpet he even removes all the doors to ensure it's done right and uses tools that prevent carpet stretching devices from scuffing baseboards. I highly recommend this guy and he's worth every cent!"

"Jose was friendly, professional and very adept in his carpet stretching knowledge and skills. While he may not be the least expensive option, he was thoughtful, caring and efficient in doing the best, long-lasting job possible."
"I recently had JLS Carpet & More install wall-to-wall carpet in my home, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. John and Sundae began by carefully moving all the furniture out of the room, taking great care to protect everything. They then spent several hours installing high-quality padding and carpeting with attention to detail. Both John and Sundae were a pleasure to work with—friendly, courteous, and clearly experienced. Their professionalism and commitment to doing the job right really stood out. I highly recommend JLS Carpet & More to anyone looking for carpet installation for their home or office. You’ll be in excellent hands."
"I went great. He was on time, friendly, fast, and gave me instructions at the end. Carpet cleaing in general has gotten pretty pricey for anyone that does not leave your carpet soaked and they left it pretty dry. It was a great job."
"Very good workmanship and very thorough. We has a minor flood in our master suite. We pulled the carpet up ourselves and removed the soaked pad. After we dried the carpet we called Carpets R us to put down new pad and re-stretch the carpet. They did an outstanding job and cleaned and sanitized our carpet too."
The store subs out its installation work to qualified contractors.
Flooring Usa Inc bent over backwards to coordinate carpet installation with other contractors working on the house at the time. I was offered a bit of a discount on some extra carpet that was sitting around the store for a while and he wanted to move it. His price was an installed price. It included everything. No nickel and diming based on the phase of the moon, or extra travel, weird room shape, etc. His price was very competitive compared to others. It was a mostly vacant house. I gave them 50% down on an AMEX card. They showed up on time for the measurement as well as the install. After the install I drove down the next day and gave them the other 50%.
Subsequently, my brother needed to have the kitchen vinyl replaced at the same address. After getting nickeled and dimed and somewhat gouged by other companies I recommended he simply call Flooring USA. My brother went down there. When he gave the address the sales guy remembered the job from about 60 days prior. Again, gave my brother a deal on a roll of vinyl they wanted to move. Their scheduling was a bit out of sync with my brother's work schedule. My brother gave them ZERO down and the keys to the now vacant house. He came back into town 10 days later and the job was 100% complete. He called in the AMEX to pay for the job.
These folks are easy to work with and price competitive. They are worth a look.
"Richard, the Sales Associate, came out to our home for the estimate exactly at the time he said he would be there. He also brought samples for us to look at while he was measuring the rooms. Richard was extremely pleasant and informative and we scheduled the work that same day. The installers, two gentlemen whose names I unfortunately don't remember, called to let me know they were on their way and they also arrived at the time promised. Those two men worked extremely hard and fast and did an excellent job! They even pointed out to me some changes they wanted to make that made the carpet look so much better where it would meet at tile the floors in kitchen and entry ways. On a side note, Carpet Barn had also installed our tile floors in the kitchen and bathrooms several years back so we knew we were in good hands."
The best way to fix carpet matting is to start by vacuuming thoroughly in multiple directions to lift the flattened fibers. For more stubborn spots, apply moisture with an ice cube or steam, then fluff the carpet using a spoon, comb, or carpet brush. A blow dryer or warm iron over a damp towel can also help restore the carpet’s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory.
Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction and friction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls. Additionally, if a fall does occur, carpet offers more cushioning, which can lessen the severity of an injury. While hard surfaces can look great, they are often more slippery. However, it's worth noting that some carpets, especially if they are new, dirty, or have a slick texture, can also pose a slipping hazard. To improve safety on any type of stair surface, you can add traction treads to increase grip.
Carpet stretching isn’t permanent, but it can last anywhere from two to six years. The longevity of this project depends on the quality of the carpet and whether it’s in a high-traffic area. You might not be able to stretch old or damaged carpets because they can tear. Certain fibers, like nylon, stretch better than others.
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 answer depends on the size of the problem. If the carpet damage is small, then you or a pro can fix it with a carpet patch. This commonly includes things like burn marks from fireplaces or small holes from furniture snagging on it.
Other times, replacing the carpet rather than repairing it is best. For example, if you have large, worn sections, water damage, or can’t get rid of a strong odor, it may be time for a replacement. Carpet removal costs average $180 plus the cost of new carpet installation.
