"We removed the wet pad and dried out the carpet and cement floor for a week. Gary came over to check out the situation and see the kind of pad we still had in place, then came back the next day with the replacement pad. He installed the pad, repaired some loose tack strip, and re-stretched the carpet. All went well and took about 90 minutes. We can't tell that anything happened to the carpet, and the pad feels the same as the original pad (it was about 2 years old)

"I had about 2000 square feet of carpet, granite/marble and laminate floor for one kitchen, three bedrooms, two baths and living room of my house.  Simply put, the work was perfect on time and exactly as quoted.  I know I got a fair deal for high end work."

"On August 13 around midnight, we had the host to our refrigerator break and we now it leaked for a lteast 3 hours.  As a result our handwood floors, tile floors, walls, carpet. padding, ceilings, insulation, were badly damaged.  After consulting with our insurance co. we went to Angies's List and found three contractors and asked for bids.  When the deciision to go with F/X Repair was made we contacted them and they were at our house within a day or two.  Tom Miller, his wife Nancy and Brian were at my home daily and I could not be happier.  These are the most amazing people.  Tom is a master carpenter, Brian is a wonderful jack of many trades, but Nancy... Nancy is the icing on the cake.  She makes sure all small mistakes or "booboos" are corrected and the best thing is she comes behind the construction crew and does a PERFECT of cleaning the rooms after the repairs have been made.  (she paints too)  I had a mess and she left it sparkling.  I have to smile now, these people not only became or repair crew of choice they became our friends.  They were very nice about fixing little things as they went along that might not have been caused by the flood, just little things but that means so much.  Bob, the owner of F/X Repair is diligent about checking in on the phone, coming by and consistantly staying on top of the job to be sure we were completely. satisfied.  My husband had done  a lot of the remodieling in our home, and much of that was damaged so he was very "picky" about how the repairs were done, and is very pleased with our finished product.  I even picked out a color to repaint our master bath and was very disapointed when i got it home and we put it on the walls, but; Tom saved the day by mixed it with paint we had used in our bedroom and I have the most beautiful bathroom now with a paint color we have named "Tommy Taupe".  I am guessing it's fairly obvious we would recommend these people and this company to anyone who might need their services.  Understand, things are not perfect but nearly perfect and I am very happy.
It is such a pleasure to write a review like this, especially since it is my home.  All I can say is Thank You F/X Bob, Tom, Nancy and Brian for being so great and our dog BooBoo is still watching for you to come in the door.  By the way, these guys had the hardest time leaving our little dog, they brought her treats and loved on her daily.  She misses them.

"They called at 8:30am to say they would be there in a little more than half an hour.  They arrived around 9:15am.  It was two younger men and they started taping and draping immediately.  Their supervisor arrived half and hour later and checked that everything was prepared and then they all three started painting.  The supervisor only stayed an hour or so but asked me to call if I that ANY concerns.  He expressed that the business had been a bit overwhelmed by the coupon and that his quality and reviews were not up to his satisfaction but that he was working hard to correct any problems.  He said that I would be happy with the paint job or that he would come back and do it over himself until I was happy.  The two young men were polite, diligent and respectful of my family and my carpet/furniture (no paint speckles!).  I appreciated their willingness to paint an awkward space (the 20 foot entry hall starting from the top and down until they ran out of time) and especially appreciated that they stayed a little longer to paint down to the height that I could easily reach to finish the job myself.
I am thrilled to have finally gotten that entry painted.  Something I have wanted to do for years.  Excellent value for the $."

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to install or stretch a carpet without a power stretcher. Skipping essential tools like a power stretcher and a knee kicker will likely result in an improper installation, leaving you with wrinkles, creases, and an unappealing final look. While a knee kicker can provide some limited stretching for thinner carpets, it is not a proper substitute. Attempting to stretch a carpet by hand or with homemade tools can also shorten its lifespan. For the best results, you should buy or rent a stretcher. If you do not want to use a stretcher, it is better to hire a professional for the installation.

Carpet stretching isn’t permanent, but it can last anywhere from two to six years. The longevity of this project depends on the quality of the carpet and whether it’s in a high-traffic area. You might not be able to stretch old or damaged carpets because they can tear. Certain fibers, like nylon, stretch better than others.

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.

While some carpet repair kits exist and only cost around $15, they are not usually appropriate for Berber repair. Typically, they include small pieces of fibers to use as patches, and Berber carpets are typically colored very differently from other kinds of carpets. This is why it is imperative to try and locate a spare piece of carpet from your original installation when you need to patch up an area.

In addition, the tools these kits include are often watered-down versions of the ones you can buy individually from your local hardware store (e.g., the glue in the kit will not be as strong as your hot glue gun or the double-sided carpet tape).

Regular vacuuming is essential in homes with animals and children to remove pet hair, dirt, and debris from the carpet's surface. Additionally, prompt cleaning of spills and accidents can prevent stains from setting in. Consider using carpet protectors or area rugs in high-traffic areas to minimize wear and tear on your new carpeting.
