"We purchased carpet from Randy's in Cedar Rapids and had Ace (Dave and James) install it. This combination provided the best quality carpet, best price, and best installation experience. They were prompt, efficient, organized, cleaned up and were done in 5 hours doing a dining room and living room. They also took time to educate us and made positive, professional suggestions on various ways to lay the carpet considering location, lighting, and longevity. I would strongly recommend having them lay your carpet no matter where you purchase it."

I had a supply line break in my guest bathroom which flooded my entire home.  Drimaxx was there that evening (very quickly) and immediately started the work to get the water out.  They took care of everything. I just watched.  After getting the water out they removed all damaged flooring and wall boards.  They set up fans and dehumidifiers.  Brian and his employees made an unbearable situation a lot less stressful.  The team was always professional, polite and made me feel comfortable that I was in good hands. The work took several days and I was secure with them being in my home while I was not there. I would use this company again if I needed to and would refer them to others.

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 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.

Regular maintenance and professional repairs can extend the life of a carpet.

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.

Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is five to 15 years. For the best results, you should always use the right type of carpet glue for the area you're using it in. There are carpet glues for high-traffic areas, which are more high-quality and durable than others.

You can get away with stretching the carpet with some remaining items of furniture, so long as you have ready access to the parts of the carpet that require maintenance and you are not stretching through the furniture, as this leads to tears and fraying. Try to remove at least 50% of the furniture if you can’t remove it all.
