"Santos was very professional, personable, expedient and efficient. He explained why the carpet was buckling and explained what he would do to rectify it. He also ensured I checked the end results of his work. Santos cleaned up after his work by collecting the cuttings and vacuuming the carpet. I most definitely recommend him!"

"I had old wall-to-wall carpeting in my downstairs living room and hallway. I also had an awful parquet floor in my dining room (which was there when we moved in back in 1986). Underneath the parquet floor was plywood and the same wood floor that was in my living room. They weren't sure if they could save the underlying floor so they gave me a price to pull out the parquet floor and the plywood and refinish the underlying wood floor and another price to do a new installation on the floor. It turned out that the plywood was nailed to the underlying floor (lots and lots of nails) and the parquet floor was glued to the plywood, so I chose to have a new installation (I could have kept the old floor but it wouldn't have looked as nice with filled nail holes in it). It took them 3 days to do everything (pull out the old carpeting, sand and stain the existing floor in the living room and hallway, remove the parquet floor and the 2 layers of wood underneath it, install a new floor, sand and stain the new floor). They did some minor damage to my walls in the room with the parquet floor (some dings and cracked paint along the bottom of the wall by the floor), but the guy who painted my downstairs a few days prior to this work came back and fixed the walls, at no charge. I don't blame them for this since I knew it may happen while yanking out old wood and pounding in new wood, and my painter and I discussed it beforehand. When the painter came back to fix the walls, his first remark was "This floor is beautiful". I then had new carpeting installed on my stairs, and when the guy came to do it, he said the same thing. He even asked for Prestige's phone number so he could recommend them for hardwood floor work. Both my painter and the carpet installer were surprised when I told them that the dining room floor was new because the wood matched my living room wood exactly. You can't tell that one wood is from the 1960's and another is brand new.
They advertise dust-free sanding, and I don't recall there being a mess for me to clean up afterwards, so that wasn't an issue.
The guys who worked on my floors were pleasant and answered all my questions.
The only thing I wasn't prepared for was the noise  - pulling out the old floor and putting in a new one, and the sander. I put my 2 cats in the basement and when I went down there to check on them, the noise was intensified for some reason so I had to get them upstairs instead, where the bedroom carpeting softened the noise a bit.

"I chose them after finding them on Angie’s List. After contacting three or four other companies, they were the ones with the lowest price and offered the carpeting that was the most similar to what we had. The salesperson was very personable as well. The experience turned out okay.  It took about two weeks to have the work scheduled and they were able to complete the job in one day. What took me by surprise is that when they needed to cut the carpet to fit, they sprawled the carpet out on my driveway to do so. Part of my disappointment was how the salesperson who kept in good contact prior to the job did not come to look at it once it was completed. We previously had carpet down and assumed that it was flawless all the way through. When the salesperson came by, he did notice that there was an adjoined area. His installers did a pretty good job. There is one area where the seam is clearly noticeable. It was my intent to call the salesperson and have him come back and look at the work. However, I did not follow through.  Overall, I was just disappointed that the salesperson did not follow up and come take a look at the completed work."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

There are many types of carpet repairs that you might experience in your home, depending on the activity level in your home. Snags and tears are relatively common, especially if you have pets or tend to move furniture around often. Some other carpet repairs you might need include:

  • Burn damage

  • Water damage

  • Pet damage

  • Loose carpet 

  • Severe stains

Yes, carpets should be replaced after a house fire or significant smoke damage, even if they appear undamaged. Smoke, soot, particulates, and chemicals can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers and padding, making complete removal a complicated and time-consuming process. If water was used to extinguish the fire, it can also soak through the carpet and padding, creating a risk of mold and mildew growth. Due to these challenges and potential health risks, replacing the carpet is the safest and most effective solution.

You’ll know if your carpet is stretched enough if it lies completely flat and smooth across your floor. If you have ripples, wrinkled areas, or carpet piling up along the baseboards, these are telltale signs that your carpet is not fully stretched. Release the carpet from the tack strip along one wall and use a stretcher or knee kicker to stretch out the carpet before securing it again.

The correct method to fix bubbling carpet depends on the cause. If the bubbles are caused by moisture, drying out the carpet can help flatten it. Otherwise, a pro might need to restretch or reinstall the carpet to fix the issue.

The best way to fix carpet matting is to start by vacuuming thoroughly in multiple directions to lift the flattened fibers. For more stubborn spots, apply moisture with an ice cube or steam, then fluff the carpet using a spoon, comb, or carpet brush. A blow dryer or warm iron over a damp towel can also help restore the carpet’s texture. For deep or widespread matting, a professional cleaning is your best bet to fluff your carpet back up to its former glory.
