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

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

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.

If you want to save money on carpet repairs, there are a few ways to save without sacrificing quality. Some options you have include:

  • Cleaning set-in stains by renting a steam cleaner or using DIY carpet cleaning methods. 

  • Prepare the area for repairing yourself, such as moving furniture, to avoid unnecessary fees.

  • Protect high-traffic areas with a runner rug to avoid excessive wear and tear.

An Oriental rug should last between 50 and 100 years, on average, but yours could last much longer than a century if you care for it properly. There are many factors that affect the lifespan of an Oriental rug, though. Increased foot traffic, exposure to moisture, exposure to UV light and sunlight, and aggressive cleaning can all limit how long your rug will last.

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.
