"I went on the Angi site to find a business that stretches carpet. I was given several businesses for carpet stretching. One of the businesses I received was Robert McInerney. I looked at the reviews of his business and all were positive. I called Bob and he was able to come to the house the day I called . Bob and his son showed up on time and did a great job stretching the carpet in the 4 bedrooms. They were friendly, polite and the price was reasonable. I would definitely hire them again."

"i needed to get two carpets stretch out. i messages the company and received a response almost immediately. A date and time was set to come out and quote the job. The tech came out and told me "i can finish this job right now so you wont have to wait" . The tech also helped me move some furniture . This is not in his job description, however he was more then happy to help me with it. I will be doing business with them again for sure."

"The new carpet looks amazing. They took away old carpet and padding and cleaned up well before they left. Highly recommend! Will definitely use them for my next flooring job!"

"Excellent.Derek responded via email within a few days  of my purchase and was able to accommodate my schedule.  He fully explained what was involved in the repair and how much time it would take.  The work was excellent, a nice tight fit, neatly installed and no mess left behind.  I will definitely be contacting him in the future.

"The entire process was surprisingly simple, quick and reasonably affordable. Top Notch was one out of three
vendors I contacted and was the first to get right back to me hours after my first telephone call.
I simply contacted Top Notch on 5/4/15, received estimate on
5/7/2015.  The project began on 5/12 completed by 5/15/2015.
Tasks included carpet to hardwood conversion, bathroom upgrade
sink and shower restoration as well as paint job.
Awesome Job

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

Professionals ensure effective adhesion by choosing the right adhesive for the materials, preparing surfaces properly, and applying pressure as needed. This attention to detail ensures durable connections in various applications from construction to repairs.

The best solvent for removing carpet glue depends on its chemical composition. Most carpet glue reacts well to a solvent made from orange oil. Use mineral spirits to remove tar-based glue, which has a darker, brownish tint. Methylene chloride paint stripper and lacquer thinner should also work, but beware of the nasty and dangerous fumes.

Carpet stretching can be a worthwhile investment to increase the lifespan of your carpet and eliminate unsightly wrinkles, ridges, and ripples. For an older carpet that is in relatively good condition aside from some wrinkling or bubbling, restretching can make it look like new and extend its life by at least a couple of years. You should consider restretching when you notice looseness or other related issues.

However, it's important to note that stretching will not fix issues like stains, wear in the pile, or discoloration. Consider replacing the carpet instead if the repair cost is more than 50% of the price of a new one. Additionally, if your carpet is past its expected lifespan of five to 15 years, or if it has been stretched multiple times already, replacement is likely a better option.

It’s best to have a pro stretch your carpet before having it cleaned. A loose carpet is more difficult to clean, but a stretched carpet will be fixed firmly in place once the job is done. Cleaning a carpet can loosen it depending on the technique used. 

In addition to having your carpets professionally cleaned, most carpet cleaners offer a range of supplemental services and treatments, including:

  • Patching and repairing holes: $100–$250 per hole

  • Carpet stretching to remove wrinkles: $60 per hour

  • Water extraction: $450–$2,000, depending on square footage

  • Pet stain and odor removal: $30–$50 per hour

  • Furniture and upholstery cleaning: $50–$80 per item

  • Furniture moving and removal: $10–$50 per item

  • Padding replacement: $4–$7 per square foot

  • Teflon treatment: $20–$40 per project

  • Environmentally friendly carpet cleaning: $100–$200 per room
