"Bill called me quickly and was able to come to my house within an hour. He assessed what needed to be done and gave me a fair price. I am very pleased with the outcome. My carpet looks great again after he got rid of the buckled areas. You won't be disappointed with his work."

"Mike and his crew were great. We needed to install carpeting in our coop apartment. The came in for an estimate, explained the entire process and gave us a fair price. They were able to start almost right away, and the whole process went so smoothly! They were on time, courteous and professional. The final result exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend empire carpet to our friends."

"Ricardo was always very responsive throughout the entire process.  He provided a fair estimate and scheduled the work during the times we required as it needed to be completed around other work being done at the house.  The work was completed in a high-quality manner, and we are very happy with the results.  Our HVAC contractor had to subsequently move 2 vents in the floor which created 2 additional holes.  Even though the flooring job had already been finished, Ricardo came back out upon our request to finish the additional patches for us.  I would definitely recommend Ricardo and his crew."

"The owners from Showcase, Dave & Eric, installed beautiful pre-finished Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors in my downstairs kitchen as well as sanded & refinished my upstairs bedroom floor. When they pulled up my carpet there was a huge hole in my floor due to missing wood. They matched the area with custom fir & after sanding & staining you could not tell! They did a wonderful job & saved me a lot of $$$ on new hardwood upstairs. As far as the new install, I cannot believe how my kitchen looks! I would definitely recommend them whether you're looking to sand & refinish your existing wood floors &/or to install brand new....these guys at Showcase ARE THE BEST!!!"

Carpet Stretching FAQs, answered by experts

Typically, it takes a few hours, depending on the extent and area of repairs needed.

In addition to having your carpets professionally cleaned, most carpet cleaners offer a range of supplemental services and treatments, including:

  • Patching and repairing holes: $100–$250 per hole

  • Carpet stretching to remove wrinkles: $60 per hour

  • Water extraction: $450–$2,000, depending on square footage

  • Pet stain and odor removal: $30–$50 per hour

  • Furniture and upholstery cleaning: $50–$80 per item

  • Furniture moving and removal: $10–$50 per item

  • Padding replacement: $4–$7 per square foot

  • Teflon treatment: $20–$40 per project

  • Environmentally friendly carpet cleaning: $100–$200 per room

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 can get away with stretching the carpet with some remaining items of furniture, so long as you have ready access to the parts of the carpet that require maintenance and you are not stretching through the furniture, as this leads to tears and fraying. Try to remove at least 50% of the furniture if you can’t remove it all.

Most people realize it is time to replace the padding when the carpet loses springiness or feels thin and unsupportive. Other telltale signs are lumps or dips in the carpet that could look unattractive or cause tripping hazards. Similarly, if your carpet is making a crinkly sound or starting to wear out prematurely, you might need to replace your padding.
