"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Vomit contains organic fluids along with whatever else comes out with it. When left without cleaning, vomit, and its odor can reach deep into carpet fibers and become very difficult to remove without a deep cleaning. In some cases, the combination can cause permanent carpet staining.  

Use baking soda and vinegar or shaving cream to fix your carpet stains. But if you prefer a quicker solution, rent a carpet shampooer and use an enzyme-based cleaner to treat and resolve your discolored carpet issue.

If you don’t put padding under your carpet, the carpet won’t be protected from wear on the underside. This could result in a shorter life span for your carpet and increased carpet repair costs over time. An unpadded carpet can also be less comfortable to walk on, depending on your subfloor and the type of carpet.

You may be able to use super glue in a pinch to fix your carpet, but expect the repair to last only a short time. Super glue isn't designed for carpet, so over time, it'll break down, and the carpet piece will move out of place. For the best results, go to the store and grab a bottle of carpet seam glue. 

Carpet stretching can be a worthwhile investment to increase the lifespan of your carpet and eliminate unsightly wrinkles, ridges, and ripples. For an older carpet that is in relatively good condition aside from some wrinkling or bubbling, restretching can make it look like new and extend its life by at least a couple of years. You should consider restretching when you notice looseness or other related issues.

However, it's important to note that stretching will not fix issues like stains, wear in the pile, or discoloration. Consider replacing the carpet instead if the repair cost is more than 50% of the price of a new one. Additionally, if your carpet is past its expected lifespan of five to 15 years, or if it has been stretched multiple times already, replacement is likely a better option.
