Q: How do you install carpet without a stretcher?

• <div><p>The knee kicker tool that attaches carpet to tack strips offers some stretching capabilities, so you can use this and your own arm strength to stretch out thinner carpets across a room. But you should buy or rent a stretcher for the best possible carpet application. If you don&rsquo;t want to buy or rent a stretcher, it may be worth it to skip the DIY and leave this job to the pros or risk shortening the life of your new carpet by installing it without a stretcher.</p></div>

Q: Can repairs improve carpet lifespan?

• <div><p>Regular maintenance and professional repairs can extend the life of a carpet.</p></div>

Q: What are common types of carpet repairs?

• <div><p>There are many types of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-fix-hole-in-carpet.htm">carpet repairs</a> that you might experience in your home, depending on the activity level in your home. Snags and tears are relatively common, especially if you have pets or tend to move furniture around often.

Q: How do you fix carpet that is matted down?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fix-carpet-matting.htm">best way to fix carpet matting</a> is to start by vacuuming thoroughly in multiple directions to lift the flattened fibers. For more stubborn spots, apply moisture with an ice cube or steam, then fluff the carpet using a spoon, comb, or carpet brush. A blow dryer or warm iron over a damp towel can also help restore the carpet&rsquo;s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory. </p></div>

Q: Is carpet glue permanent?

• <div><p>Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is<b> five to 15 years</b>. 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.</p></div>
