"This project was supposed to be "phase one" of three projects that we hired NE Renovation to complete. On day one, the basement was prepped - all carpeting was covered and baseboard heating covers were removed. Sheetrock was supposed to be installed on the next day, but due to a serious injury to the sub-contractor, that was not done. Instead, demolition work began on what was supposed to be "phase two" of the project - the remodeling of a bathroom. We had not been expecting this change in schedule and to be fair, neither did anyone else. The basement project was put on hold until an alternate plan could be made. A few weeks later, work began again on the basement. The sheetrock was installed very well and in quick time. The plaster work was completed perfectly which was no small task given the length of the walls. Additionally, the paint job was done perfectly. The new six-panel doors, wall mounted television, upgraded lighting, and new baseboard heating covers helped complete the transition of the space from 1970 to 2012!
The value we received from this project has exceeded our expectations. We added a pool table and two sectional sofas to complete our new recreational space. It serves as a great "man cave" as well as a great place for family and friends to hang out. NE Renovations did a great job renovating our basement."

There are many types of carpet repairs 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. Some other carpet repairs you might need include:
Burn damage
Water damage
Pet damage
Loose carpet
Severe stains
The best way to fix carpet matting 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’s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory.
The best solvent for removing carpet glue depends on its chemical composition. Most carpet glue reacts well to a solvent made from orange oil. Use mineral spirits to remove tar-based glue, which has a darker, brownish tint. Methylene chloride paint stripper and lacquer thinner should also work, but beware of the nasty and dangerous fumes.
Carpet stretching can be a worthwhile investment to increase the lifespan of your carpet and eliminate unsightly wrinkles, ridges, and ripples. For an older carpet that is in relatively good condition aside from some wrinkling or bubbling, restretching can make it look like new and extend its life by at least a couple of years. You should consider restretching when you notice looseness or other related issues.
However, it's important to note that stretching will not fix issues like stains, wear in the pile, or discoloration. Consider replacing the carpet instead if the repair cost is more than 50% of the price of a new one. Additionally, if your carpet is past its expected lifespan of five to 15 years, or if it has been stretched multiple times already, replacement is likely a better option.
Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is five to 15 years. 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.
