"David installed carpet and pad in five rooms and three sets of steps in our condo. He also installed vinyl flooring in the kitchen, two bathrooms and the foyer. I am very please with the quality of his work. He even caulked around the edges of the vinyl where it met the baseboard. He cleaned up all the scraps and vacuumed the carpet before he left. I would definitely use him again, and would recommend his work to others."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction and friction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls. Additionally, if a fall does occur, carpet offers more cushioning, which can lessen the severity of an injury. While hard surfaces can look great, they are often more slippery. However, it's worth noting that some carpets, especially if they are new, dirty, or have a slick texture, can also pose a slipping hazard. To improve safety on any type of stair surface, you can add traction treads to increase grip.

Generally speaking, restretch your carpets once every five years, though this timeframe depends on a number of factors, such as the level of foot traffic in the area. If the carpet looks wrinkled and there are loosened areas on the floor, go for the restretch. If everything looks and feels fine, you are good.

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.

The cost of carpet repair is $204 on average. The typical range for this project is between $135 and $280 but can increase to $1,000 for severe pet damage repair. The type of repair, along with the carpet material, will impact your total price tag. 

The necessary type of carpet repair is a significant factor in the total price for this project. You can repair simple repairs, like tears and snags, for between $100 and $250. For more complex damage, like water or severe pet damage, prices can start at $300 and jump to $1,000 or more.
