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."

"I would definitely hire VRP Flooring again! I did my online search for carpet stretching on a Tuesday night. Horatio from VRP texted me that same evening and came the next day to provide a free estimate. His two-man team was here right on time on Friday morning to do the repair. Very professional, courteous, and accommodating. Fairly priced too."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

Carpet glue is very sticky, but it's not permanent. The glue usually lasts as long as a typical carpet installation, which is five to 15 years. For the best results, you should always use the right type of carpet glue for the area you're using it in. There are carpet glues for high-traffic areas, which are more high-quality and durable than others.

Carpet stretching isn’t permanent, but it can last anywhere from two to six years. The longevity of this project depends on the quality of the carpet and whether it’s in a high-traffic area. You might not be able to stretch old or damaged carpets because they can tear. Certain fibers, like nylon, stretch better than others.

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

Standard padding works like a sponge. It absorbs liquid, soaking up every drop of moisture that hits it. Moisture barrier padding does the opposite because it has a waterproof coating made of plastic film, rubber, or treated foam. It doesn’t absorb spills and keeps them on the surface instead, so you can clean them up before they damage your subfloor. 

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.
