"Mr. Maurice did an extremely professional estimate and timely quote. He went to extra pains to get samples of possible flooring in order to have his estimate be as accurate as possible. Because of unforeseen circumstances, we are not able to go forward with this project at this time, but we would most certainly use Mr. Maurice if we are able to do so in the future."

"I was very pleased with all of the work they did. First of all the work was done perfectly! Every time they completed a job for us, I was very impressed by the results. In addition, I find their prices very reasonable. They also always arrived when they said they would, and completed the jobs in the time estimated. They were very accommodating in regards to scheduling and their workers were all kind and professional. I honestly couldn’t recommend them more highly!"

"The men that came were very respectful and did an awesome job of cleaning the ducts, registers and dryer vent. They cleaned up behind themselves and left the house in order. I would definitely hire them again for this and other services."

"Able Home Improvements dispatched a very polite, hard-working painter.  He even brought his lunch and ate on site -- taking minimal time to eat and for several short breaks to stretch...We will request his services again.  My only comment for an improvement is:  Able should provide their painters  with extra-large drop cloth to cover a large and avoid having to move a small drop cloth so often..."

Carpet Stretching 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.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your carpet, consider its age, the extent of the damage, and its location. It's often best to replace the entire carpet if the damage is extensive, such as large sections needing replacement, or if it's caused by water, which can lead to mold problems. Similarly, if your carpet is nearing a decade old, replacement is likely the more logical choice. On the other hand, consider repairing your carpet if the damage is localized to one spot, like minor rips or snags, the carpet is still relatively new, or the damage is in a low-traffic area of your home.

Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average cost of carpet installation is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too.

It’s best to have a pro stretch your carpet before having it cleaned. A loose carpet is more difficult to clean, but a stretched carpet will be fixed firmly in place once the job is done. Cleaning a carpet can loosen it depending on the technique used. 

While some carpet repair kits exist and only cost around $15, they are not usually appropriate for Berber repair. Typically, they include small pieces of fibers to use as patches, and Berber carpets are typically colored very differently from other kinds of carpets. This is why it is imperative to try and locate a spare piece of carpet from your original installation when you need to patch up an area.

In addition, the tools these kits include are often watered-down versions of the ones you can buy individually from your local hardware store (e.g., the glue in the kit will not be as strong as your hot glue gun or the double-sided carpet tape).
