Customers say: Quality work

"The owner Kenny was the actual person to come out and do our estimate. He was honest, professional and courteous. It was refreshing compared to the other salesman that gave us estimates. One of our bedroom carpets had wrinkles in it and was slightly stained. He told us not to waste our money; he stretched it and cleaned it. He also installed a new carpet in another bedroom and a set of stairs-they both came out absolutely fantastic!! He worked on the price with us and even helped by referring us to another company we needed for other work. It was a pleasure to work with him and his company; we highly recommend him to anyone looking for any flooring needs."

"We highly recommend Sal and his team. We had a new hardwood floor put in our upstairs hallway as well as some floor/carpet repair in two other bedrooms. The job was done efficiently and the results were excellent! We will be using Sal and his team again in the future."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

While some carpet repair kits exist and only cost around $15, they are not usually appropriate for Berber repair. Typically, they include small pieces of fibers to use as patches, and Berber carpets are typically colored very differently from other kinds of carpets. This is why it is imperative to try and locate a spare piece of carpet from your original installation when you need to patch up an area.

In addition, the tools these kits include are often watered-down versions of the ones you can buy individually from your local hardware store (e.g., the glue in the kit will not be as strong as your hot glue gun or the double-sided carpet tape).

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.

While it may not always be ideal, you can fix a squeaky floorboard without removing the carpet. Pros use specialized carpet screws and drive them through the carpet into the subfloor, securing floorboards. They may also use nails instead of screws if they suspect the pile will get caught in the screw. While some types of carpet will hide the screws and nails, a low-pile carpet may not.

Hiring a pro to stretch a carpet costs anywhere from $100 to $300, though this price increases if you also task the contractor to remove and replace the furniture from the room. Doing it on your own maxes out at $100, though renting the power stretcher and knee kicker extend the cost in some instances.

Patching your carpet in damaged areas or using an industry-grade cleaner on urine spots can help remove stains and scents from your carpet. If odors linger, leave baking soda on the area overnight (dry), then vacuum it up in the morning.
