Jerry's Dust free flooring is the best hardwood flooring refinishing company on Angie We provide dust free guaranteed refinishing process Jerry Dust Free Flooring is family owned and operated company with great reputation craftsmanship and flooring specialist in the trade We have over 20 years of experience at dust free hardwood floors refinishing
"Yes, truly is dust free but the experience of working with them is even better than how clean they are. Everything working with Jerry went exactly as one should be able to expect from this class of professional service provider. However, he was the only one out of several top Angie's List rated companies that not only showed up on time to provide a quote but explained how he would handle the job from start to finish. The other guys really didn't want to tear out and haul away the carpet or even provide a selection of trim and flooring from which to choose. They gave a list of several stores to order the materials from with the amount of materials required. They also were going to cap the stairs instead of removing the treads if they found they weren't already oak underneath. However Jerry's quote was almost the same price but he would handle everything. Ultimately it turned out to be cheaper as once the carpet was removed it was discovered the stairs were oak and in good enough condition to easily refinish. Everything went swimmingly and our floors are absolutely stunning. High points: - I didn't have to lift a finger. (one would think that's normal since I'm the customer and not the flooring company, but apparently the other companies felt that wasn't the case.) - Arrived on time to provide quote. Quote itemized with exact cost. Explained that only if the subfloor turned out to be problematic could the cost change and we would be made aware. - Provided complete catalog to select everything from. Helped with selection by showing examples of designs and sizes in similar layouts. - Arrived on the start date when he said they would and finished the day he said they would too. - Clean, clean, clean. Exceptionally clean - Floors are absolutely gorgeous and meticulously installed. - Custom banister and newell work looks beautiful and rock solid. - Honest, called to let me know I saved money when he pulled the carpet up on the stairs to discover they were in good shape. The quote had included replacement. - Hauled all the carpet and trash away. Would absolutely use again and plan to for the remaining rooms."

Yes. A pro can cut out the damaged section and insert a matching piece, restoring both look and function. Because the patch is seamed and glued in place, it creates a permanent fix that blends with the surrounding pile and adds years to the carpet’s life without a full replacement.
No, you should not re-stretch a carpet once it has been initially installed. Re-stretching is a one-time repair process that permanently secures the carpet. If your carpet shows signs of looseness beyond its acceptable lifespan of 5 to 15 years, replace it to maintain safety and functionality. Hire a professional for an accurate assessment.
Carpet odors are eliminated by addressing damaged areas with patch repair or applying an industry-grade cleaner to urine spots. This approach removes both stains and unwanted scents effectively. If odors persist, apply a generous layer of baking soda on the affected area and allow it to remain overnight on a dry surface. The following morning, vacuum thoroughly to eliminate all residual odors and restore freshness.
It is essential to stretch a carpet before cleaning it to guarantee that the fibers remain taut and secure. Stretching realigns the carpet and creates a smooth surface, and subsequent cleaning preserves the tension and integrity of the installation. This order of operation maintains the carpet’s appearance and prolongs its effective lifespan.
Spring and fall are the best seasons for carpet installation because moderate temperatures and low humidity guarantee that your carpet acclimates and fits securely. Installing carpet during winter lowers costs because of low demand, but it compromises installation quality and performance. Therefore, opt for spring or fall to ensure both optimal conditions and reliable results.
