"I have been using Universal Lawn, owned by Donnie Young, for many years to maintain my property year-round. He is a top-notch professional, honest, ethical, hard-working, and smart business owner, and ALWAYS, yes, ALWAYS, does what he says he will do, without fail. I hope he remains in business for many many years because I don't know what I would do without him. If you are looking for a great company to manage your landscaping, look no further. I am hard to impress, and Donnie Young has surpassed my expectations, over and over again. My mother also has her property managed by Donnie of Universal Lawn."

"Bill the owner was the only one who contacted me thru the service I used to locate a contractor. He was very quick to come out and review my work and give me the quote and completed the job in about 2 hours. Bill knew exactly what needed to be done to correct my carpet problems. I would recommend using Carson Flooring to friends and neighbors."

"Mr. Young is great!! He came and gave me a quote quickly, and it was a lot lower than I was expecting. He did the work, even working on a weekend to complete it because of rain during the week. He sent me a picture after he was done, and it was almost dark, so I know he also worked late. I will definitely hire him again when I need more work done. He was a pleasure to work with!!"

"I hired Rocky Flooring because my carpets literally had some rough edges (due to foot traffic, wheelchair traffic, and three active dogs) at all of the transitions to hard flooring. They did excellent work! The two men showed up on time and got right to work. They were able to stretch the existing carpet and then reattach it to the original transition strips. Things look as good as new! I recommend Rocky Flooring to anyone who needs carpet repair work done."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

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. 

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. 

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.

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.

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.
