Does a room have to be empty to restretch the carpet?

• <div><p>Your room doesn’t need to be completely empty to restretch a carpet, but you’ll need enough space that you can move around furniture to access the wrinkled areas and the wall where you’re reattaching the carpet. A contractor will move your furniture out of the way before they start the job, but you can save money by moving your furniture before they arrive.</p></div>

Is it cheaper to lay carpet or carpet tiles?

• <div><p>Carpet tiles are less expensive than traditional carpet. The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/carpet-installation-cost-and-advantages.htm">cost of carpet installation</a> is $1,800, or $3 to $11 per square foot. In comparison, carpet tiles cost $2.50 to $11 apiece and can often be bought in bulk cartons. Since you can more easily DIY carpet tiles, you may be able to save on installation costs, too. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to stretch a carpet?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How to fix squeaky floorboards without removing carpet?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: How often should carpets be stretched?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Fantastic! Billy was prompt, personable and professional, and he did a fantastic job. Honestly, I thought I was going to have to replace the carpet in a few rooms but they turned out looking brand new. Highly recommend Quality Carpet Cleaning of Memphis if you need your carpets cleaned!
