"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!"

"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."
"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."
An Oriental rug should last between 50 and 100 years, on average, but yours could last much longer than a century if you care for it properly. There are many factors that affect the lifespan of an Oriental rug, though. Increased foot traffic, exposure to moisture, exposure to UV light and sunlight, and aggressive cleaning can all limit how long your rug will last.
Regular vacuuming is essential in homes with animals and children to remove pet hair, dirt, and debris from the carpet's surface. Additionally, prompt cleaning of spills and accidents can prevent stains from setting in. Consider using carpet protectors or area rugs in high-traffic areas to minimize wear and tear on your new carpeting.
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
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.
Generally speaking, restretch your carpets once every five years, though this timeframe depends on a number of factors, such as the level of foot traffic in the area. If the carpet looks wrinkled and there are loosened areas on the floor, go for the restretch. If everything looks and feels fine, you are good.
