"On 2/16 Steam Master came out to clean our carpets and they refused to clean them. B&C Carpet Care was recommended by our banker. Bob came out and worked 4 hours and did an amazing job. Some of the stains from dog urine did not come out, which was expected. House smells great and floors are amazingly clean.

"I contacted TW King on Monday, December 15th, hoping to have this and the cleaning done to the carpet before the end of the year. They scheduled me for the following day, upon completion of another job in our area. They called to let me know they were running a little behind their original time estimate, but Tracy and Tom (owners) arrived promptly at the adjusted time they gave me. I showed them some large areas of carpet in the finished basement that were water damaged; one was as old as 10 years, where upon drying, the carpet no longer stretched to the tackstrip under the molding. Another was the result of a reoccurrance of an old pipe leak from the ceiling in the middle of a large room, as well as a hallway. We also had some areas around the basement stairs where the carpet was starting to come up. They recommended stretching all of the water affected areas before cleaning so the carpet would be tight when cleaned and not leave wrinkles upon drying. They drilled in all of the tackstrips and restretched the carpet in 4 areas (a 20X20 family room, a 12X15 bedroom, a 13X6 hall way and the area in front of the stairs). They moved all of the furniture in both rooms (including a sofa bed, treadmill and a piano) and then vacuumed and moved everything back carefully to its original position. I also asked them to take a piece of the remnant of a karistan runner for our main staircase on the first floor and replace the lower 4 steps, which were beginning to show a lot of wear. It was seamless-even though the new piece is slightly darker, it is hardly noticeable because of how well it was installed to fit the design!I couldn't be more pleased with the result and the price. They took carpet that still had a lot of wear and made it seem new again."

Carpet Installation questions, 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.

The best underlayment for carpet on concrete is a sponge rubber underlayment. This type of carpet padding is durable enough to endure wear and tear on hard concrete yet soft enough to provide comfort underfoot. It also creates insulation from sound and temperature, providing warmth despite the concrete’s cold surface.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

Experts advise that replacing carpeting can bring a 50% to 80% return on investment. However, new carpeting doesn’t necessarily add value to your overall home value. Because flooring value heavily depends on taste, it can be tricky to determine whether new carpet will increase your home sale price. Carpeting tends to be a renovation that increases overall comfort and aesthetics for your home, but it’s not a big factor in value.

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.
