They did quality work and were quick to install as I was in a hurry to get it taken care of. My only complaint would be that they left all the scraps and glue buckets behind. There were 2, 40+ gallon, garbage cans worth of carpet scraps left. A large scrap piece or two would have been fine and...

Carpet Stretching questions, answered by experts

Through accurate measurements and dye matching to the original finishes.

There are a few carpet maintenance tips you’ll want to use to keep your carpet looking brand-new. Make sure you tackle stains immediately, and only use cleaners gentle enough for your carpet's specific fibers. You can even pop area rugs on top of wall-to-wall carpeting to change the look of your space and protect the carpet below.

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.

No, it works best under synthetic carpets in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas. Avoid using moisture barrier padding under natural fiber carpets like wool, which need air circulation. The barrier can trap the moisture against natural fibers and cause problems. Also, you can skip it in low-risk areas like upstairs guest bedrooms, where the extra protection often isn't worth the added cost.

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.
