Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.
The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.
Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.

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.

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

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.

Vacuum regularly, clean spills promptly, and schedule professional deep cleaning annually.
