"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 professional installation for a fair price. Showed up on time, they removed both toilets to install new bathroom flooring and reinstalled them. Finished off the vinyl plank living room and hallway floor with new baseboards. Completed the work in a timely manner and cleaned up. Would definitely use them again."

"The salesperson was easy to work with, the product has lasted well for 14 years.  However, the installation was a nightmare.
Fried outsourced the installation work.  The installer seemed experienced.  The assistant was a licensed plumber helping the installer on his slow times.  The head installer arrived late every day (around 10AM) and took long (1 or 2 hour) breaks each day leaving the plumber assistant to do the work.  Our entire breakfast nook was installed by the plumber and a young woman assistant while the installer was on one of his breaks.  The installation took 2+ weeks and we were really fed up having to live in our bedroom for all that time!
When the work was finally completed, the head installer put our large hutch on a piece of cardboard to move it from the living room area back into the dining area.  He did NOT use a dolly and had already complained about having to move furniture.  (My husband and I moved most of the furniture out of the living room and dining room.)  As he pushed the hutch toward the place it belonged, one of the metal feet came off the cardboard and left a gash across the dining room that was at least 4 feet long.  After attempting to replace just the damaged wood with no success they had to remove all the wood from the dining room and lay new wood in the entire room.  This meant another week of removal and installation.
They used damaged unfinished quarter round at the base of the walls that they got from Home Depot and didn't cover the nail holes.  It looked terrible.  We withheld our final payment until someone came to repair the quarter round, remove all the glue that was stuck on the wood and secure the slats of wood that were lifting up from the cement flooring underneath. This took another week or more. We have documented letters of complaint in our file of this experience.
I realize that this was 12 years ago and things might have changed by now but we will never do business with G Fried again.  We just had wood floors installed in two rooms by International Wood Floors and we can highly recommend them.

Carpet Stretching FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

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. 

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

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.

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.
