Q: How can I maintain my carpet with kids and pets in the house?

• <div><p>Regular vacuuming is essential in homes with animals and children to remove pet hair, dirt, and debris from the carpet's surface. Additionally, prompt cleaning of spills and accidents can prevent stains from setting in. Consider using carpet protectors or area rugs in high-traffic areas to minimize wear and tear on your new carpeting. </p></div>

Q: How do you maintain your carpet?

• <div><p>There are a few <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-keep-carpet-looking-new.htm">carpet maintenance tips</a> you&rsquo;ll want to use to keep your carpet looking brand-new. Make sure you tackle stains immediately, and only use cleaners gentle enough for your carpet's specific fibers. You can even pop area rugs on top of wall-to-wall carpeting to change the look of your space and protect the carpet below.</p></div>

Q: What is the best solvent for removing carpet glue?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How to fix squeaky floorboards without removing carpet?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

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>

I was not on hand while the work was being done until the last day. If I had anything that disturbed me ,it would be that the workers were too inconsiderate of the flowerbeds nearby. I called on a landscaper to repair.
