"Exceeded expectations! Held out little hope for how well the carpet could be cleaned much less stretched. I was very pleasantly surprised. Russ and his associate who stretched my carpet and James who cleaned the carpet were all very professional, courteous, helpful and skilled. I"
"Larry sent Dale to restretch some carpet in my daughter's room. They were able to come out the very next day so it could be done before steam cleaning. The price Larry quoted was honored and it was 1/3 the price quoted by other companies ( who we thought were overpriced). They didn't mind such a small job, did the work in a timely manner and were very courteous. Very pleased and plan to call them when I need another bedroom stretched as well ( that room had all the furniture in it and couldn't be emptied)."
"The service went well. Two technicians came out and completed the cleaning in an hour or two. They cleaned the bedroom, hallway and step carpets. The carpets looked pretty good after the service. I had no problem scheduling the deal."
"Tim did a great job dealing with the challenges of installing a carpet runner on a 145-year old staircase. None of the steps were the same size and most of them unsquare, missing part of the nose, etc. etc. etc. He was able to navigate those challenges and complete a beautiful runner installation. This included having to cut the carpet around a huge bannister post at the bottom of the steps, it all turned out great. We don't anticipate having any new carpeting put down, but if we did, we would certainly consider using Hampton again. Anytime someone asks who did our runner, we will certainly give positive reviews of Tim and Hampton Flooring. "
"Scott and another worker came by to give us a estimate to stretch our carpet. The price was good and he said they could do the work right then so perfect. They were out of here in in a little over a hour with a 2 year guarantee!"
"We recently purchased a home where three levels of the home needed carpeting replaced. Nancy came out, took time to explain the process, helped pick colors, and measured each room. Her pricing was competitive, and she was responsive with any questions. The crew came and finished the job in two days. Everyone was extremely professional, on time, and did an excellent job stretching the carpet into place. We are very happy with the finished rooms. Great job, Floor Coverings International!!"
"Shawn and his assistant did a great job stretching our basement carpet. There were able to work around a pool table that could not be moved, and lots of furniture. The amount of carpet they removed was incredible (it really needed stretching!) and it looks great. They were able to get the work done the same week I put in the request, did an great job communicating, and cleaned everything up afterwards. Would use again without a doubt."
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.
The answer depends on the size of the problem. If the carpet damage is small, then you or a pro can fix it with a carpet patch. This commonly includes things like burn marks from fireplaces or small holes from furniture snagging on it.
Other times, replacing the carpet rather than repairing it is best. For example, if you have large, worn sections, water damage, or can’t get rid of a strong odor, it may be time for a replacement. Carpet removal costs average $180 plus the cost of new carpet installation.
Maintenance practices include regular vacuuming, prompt spill cleaning, and periodic professional deep-cleaning to remove embedded dirt particles and rejuvenate fibers.
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.
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.
