"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 chose Carpet Concepts because they were listed as a local Mohawk vendor. We knew we wanted to replace our old carpet with eco-friendly Smartstrand carpet, but had heard horror stories about installation nightmares through big box stores. Dave was friendly and communicative when we visited the store-- free carpet samples arrived within the week, and Dave was quick to provide an in-home estimate without any high-pressure sales tactics. The price seemed competitive and the customer service was excellent, so we decided to move forward with Carpet Concepts-- and I'm glad we did. The two-man installation crew was punctual, polite, and efficient, and the carpet looks great. A good experience from start to finish... we're very pleased. "

"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 FAQs, 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.

Steam cleaning is the best way to clean a carpet to enhance the color and texture of the fibers. You can either rent a steam cleaner and clean the carpet yourself or hire a local carpet cleaning team for a more thorough pass.

While it may not always be ideal, you can fix a squeaky floorboard without removing the carpet. Pros use specialized carpet screws and drive them through the carpet into the subfloor, securing floorboards. They may also use nails instead of screws if they suspect the pile will get caught in the screw. While some types of carpet will hide the screws and nails, a low-pile carpet may not.

You can get away with stretching the carpet with some remaining items of furniture, so long as you have ready access to the parts of the carpet that require maintenance and you are not stretching through the furniture, as this leads to tears and fraying. Try to remove at least 50% of the furniture if you can’t remove it all.

How long carpet dye lasts depends on the quality of the dye and the application process. At a minimum, dyed carpets keep their color for a year, but some can last longer. Many factors affect how long carpet dye lasts, including the amount of UV rays that hit the carpet, causing it to fade. However, the good news is you can have your carpet dyed annually to keep up the color.
