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.

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>

The gentleman that came out was really excellent and very nice, but the price was extremely high for the hour they spent installing it. The person who took the intake call was also very nice and professional.

The 3 men showed up to perform the carpet cleaning. They worked fast and got out many stains that I thought would be there forever. They also used a carpet stretcher on some minor places to tighten up the carpet. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome and with the company.
