"Trey's team did a wonderful job AGAIN. This is the third time we have asked them to come help us. They were in and out in a day and did a wonderful job with the installation and the carpet was top quality. They have more skin in the game than Home Depot who farms out the installation to no-name contractors that don't require repeat business. Floors to Go by John Raper definitely puts a huge effort in communication, pricing, product quality, meeting our schedule needs, and installation performance."

"Me and my husband bought our first house recently, and the carpets were in need of some serious TLC. When I told Chip that we were hoping to move in soon, he came right out the next day for an estimate. The day after, he (and his associate Dennis--also highly recommended) stretched nearly all the carpets in the house. We didn't have the money for new carpets, but just having the existing carpet fit like it should makes it feel brand new."

"I've used Triangle Carpet Specialists 3 times over the last month on rental properties that I own.  In each case they showed up on time or a few minutes early.  The carpet steam cleaning was the best I've ever had - you could really feel the steam throughout the house.  When I've had carpet installed the estimate was an exact match to the final cost.  The workers were very fast and were very careful to cleanup and move furniture back into place.  The finish quality was great.  I highly recommend Triangle Carpet Specialists."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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.

When deciding whether to repair or replace your carpet, consider its age, the extent of the damage, and its location. It's often best to replace the entire carpet if the damage is extensive, such as large sections needing replacement, or if it's caused by water, which can lead to mold problems. Similarly, if your carpet is nearing a decade old, replacement is likely the more logical choice. On the other hand, consider repairing your carpet if the damage is localized to one spot, like minor rips or snags, the carpet is still relatively new, or the damage is in a low-traffic area of your home.

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.  

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.

You can use a carpet patch to replace a single section of carpet. You’ll cut out the damaged section and then replace it with a caret patch. The patch should be the same color as the existing carpet. You can also hire a professional carpet repair company to get it done.
