"Overall good experience. When he stretched the carpet a spot near a vent needed to be patched. I was never asked he just did it and charged me at the end. I just like to be informed. Looks great and comes with a 2 year warranty. Doesn't clean up the loose carpet really well which takes a whole minute to do yourself. Looks and functions well overall. Would use again."

"I am completely satisfied with the work done. Jason and Teresa were friendly and extremely efficient. I made an on line inquiry on Sunday and received a phone call just minutes after I sent the request for replacing locks and handles on my exterior doors. Jason came over the next day(Labor Day), showed me my options for the hardware, gave me an estimate, and agreed to return the next day to install the products. He showed up on time and had the job complete in one hour. Amazing! I already have him working on an estimate for my next project. I highly recommend Lawlis Remodeling."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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.

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

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.

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.

If you want to save money on carpet repairs, there are a few ways to save without sacrificing quality. Some options you have include:

  • Cleaning set-in stains by renting a steam cleaner or using DIY carpet cleaning methods. 

  • Prepare the area for repairing yourself, such as moving furniture, to avoid unnecessary fees.

  • Protect high-traffic areas with a runner rug to avoid excessive wear and tear.
