Is it worth re-stretching the carpet?

• <div><p>Stretching a carpet should be a one-time job. If by re-stretching you mean doing it a second (or third) time, it’s probably better to replace it altogether. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Most carpets are expected to last</a> anywhere from five to 15 years, so if it’s past that timeframe, you may want to shop around for a new one.</p></div>

How can I save money on new carpet?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-time-to-buy-carpet.htm">buying carpet at certain times of year</a> when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to stretch a carpet?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: When should I repair versus clean versus remove and replace my carpeting?

• <div><p>There are a few things to think about if you&rsquo;re deciding whether to repair or replace your carpeting. For starters, consider the extent of the damage and the age of your carpet. If there are minor rips and snags and your carpet is still relatively new, it might make more sense to just replace the affected section. Otherwise, if your carpet is nearing that decade mark or has widespread damage, it&rsquo;s more logical to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">replace your carpet</a> entirely.</p></div>

Q: Can a professional repair pet-damaged carpets?

• <div><p>Yes, by patching or section replacement to blend seamlessly.</p></div>

Lance was on time, personable, and did a great job. He even stretched the carpet in a closet, unasked, because he saw a wrinkle. I highly recommend Lance,

He was a very friendly and well-meaning person but he didn’t seem to know exactly what to do. It took him a long time, I had to help him, and I ended up finishing the job because it was a very cheap fixture that just needed to be reattached, he did not need to wire anything. It’s possible that...

They cleaned up the old pad, carpet tack, and installed Pergo Gold LVP tile oad, and Pergo LVP, I had purchased at a big box store.
