Carpet business locally owned and operated we feel invested in our clients and constantly strive for customer satisfaction. Call or message us to schedule an estimate today!

"The carpenters did an exceptional job, completing the installation in a timely manner and with perfect execution. Although I wasn't present during the installation, the carpet looks and feels professionally done. I initially needed a carpet due to noise complaints from my neighbor and was hesitant about adding one. After discussing it with my neighbor, I decided to proceed. The carpet they installed looks and feels amazing! I just wanted a quick solution to reduce noise, so I gave them the measurements and left the rest to them. They exceeded my expectations and truly nailed it! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and enjoyable. I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome. They transformed my space into a cozy, inviting haven, and I couldn't be happier. I love the carpet 100% and definitely recommend these guys! Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality are truly top-notch."

Carpet repair, refasten, or stretches FAQs

Yes, you can repair a damaged section of carpet using a carpet patch. In this repair, a professional cuts out the damaged area and installs a matching piece with precision to restore the carpet’s appearance and function. This method secures the repair permanently and extends the carpet’s lifespan while maintaining a seamless look across your flooring.

Stretching a carpet should be a one-time job. If by re-stretching you mean doing it a second (or third) time, it’s probably better to replace it altogether. Most carpets are expected to last anywhere from five to 15 years, so if it’s past that timeframe, you may want to shop around for a new one. Hire a carpet cleaner near you to take care of the job properly.

Patching your carpet in damaged areas or using an industry-grade cleaner on urine spots can help remove stains and scents from your carpet. If odors linger, leave baking soda on the area overnight (dry), then vacuum it up in the morning. 

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 optimal seasons for installing carpet because moderate temperatures and low humidity create the perfect conditions for the carpet to acclimate and secure evenly. Installing during these periods minimizes moisture-related issues and ensures precise fitting, while winter installations often face challenges that can affect the overall performance of the carpet.
