"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."

Amazing. I have had  many contractors do various jobs, from all price ranges.  Very rarely do they even get get a C in my book.  Most companies do things half way, don't care about their work. 

I bought my flooring through Lowes and they subcontracted through Murphy's carpet. 

These guys EXCEEDED my expectations. 

There were tons of small cut outs- detailed areas.

I could tell when I met the guy he was going to a good job by the comments he was making. 

I would recommend these guys over anyone!!!  I tell everyone. I have rarely found quality workmanship in the 15 years I have been a home owner.

A++++ Thanks Murphy's !!! My basement is beautiful!

"Terry came on March 13th and almost immediately zeroed in on the probability that I had mold originating around my bathtub and suggested I buy a mold kit to apply and send for analysis. I took a while to do that, but I received mold-positive results. Although I chose to go with another provider, I so appreciate Terry's observation and suggestion, especially since the first company rep who came to appraise didn't notice the mold at all. Terry did give me a ballpark figure of $8,500 - $10,000 for a complete gutting of my tiny bathroom, and I'll never know where on that spectrum I would have ended up, but, again, I'm rating BB Contracting and Remodeling highly because Terry gave me such good advice."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

The cost of carpet repair is $204 on average. The typical range for this project is between $135 and $280 but can increase to $1,000 for severe pet damage repair. The type of repair, along with the carpet material, will impact your total price tag. 

The necessary type of carpet repair is a significant factor in the total price for this project. You can repair simple repairs, like tears and snags, for between $100 and $250. For more complex damage, like water or severe pet damage, prices can start at $300 and jump to $1,000 or more.  

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.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

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.

Standard padding works like a sponge. It absorbs liquid, soaking up every drop of moisture that hits it. Moisture barrier padding does the opposite because it has a waterproof coating made of plastic film, rubber, or treated foam. It doesn’t absorb spills and keeps them on the surface instead, so you can clean them up before they damage your subfloor.
