Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

How long carpet dye lasts depends on the quality of the dye and the application process. At a minimum, dyed carpets keep their color for a year, but some can last longer. Many factors affect how long carpet dye lasts, including the amount of UV rays that hit the carpet, causing it to fade. However, the good news is you can have your carpet dyed annually to keep up the color.

Carpets should always be replaced after smoke damage. Particulates and chemicals can penetrate the carpet into the carpet padding, and it can be difficult to fully remove all traces of smoke or fire damage. If water is used to put out the fire, it can soak through the carpet, leading to mold growth and other issues. It’s best to be safe and replace your carpets after a fire.

The correct method to fix bubbling carpet depends on the cause. If the bubbles are caused by moisture, drying out the carpet can help flatten it. Otherwise, a pro might need to restretch or reinstall the carpet to fix the issue.

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.

Pros use power stretchers that secure the carpet firmly in place.
