"The professional cleaning service was top notch. Mike arrived on time and cleaned 7 areas of carpet in an amazing way. He always does such a great job that we have call about twice a year to have the carpet cleaned. I would recommend OMA Professional Cleaning Services to others."

"We needed carpet and hardwood installed in our newly purchased house. We were under a tight deadline to try and get the flooring installed before we moved all our furniture in. Tom was able to fit the install in under that deadline. We got two other quotes first, and he beat both pretty handily and we are very happy with the results. He came in home with some samples initially and we also met him at his warehouse to take a look at the whole stock before making a decision. The process from start to finish was great and I will certainly work with him again in the future if I need more flooring."

"I would definitely recommend Wyatt Professional Flooring to everyone. I had a carpet that required re-stretching. Mike and his son came and did a great job. They were punctual, professional and personable. They explained the work during the project. You could tell they were very experienced. Also, cleaned up after the job was completed."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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.

If you don’t put padding under your carpet, the carpet won’t be protected from wear on the underside. This could result in a shorter life span for your carpet and increased carpet repair costs over time. An unpadded carpet can also be less comfortable to walk on, depending on your subfloor and the type of carpet.

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. 

If you live in a region with high humidity, carpet bubbling can occur regularly. A dehumidifier can help keep your carpet flat during the most humid months.

Use baking soda and vinegar or shaving cream to fix your carpet stains. But if you prefer a quicker solution, rent a carpet shampooer and use an enzyme-based cleaner to treat and resolve your discolored carpet issue.
