Can I repair a damaged section of carpet using a patch?

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.

Can you re-stretch a carpet?

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.

How do you remove smells from a carpet?

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.

Should you clean a carpet before stretching?

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.

What is the best season to install carpet?

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.

"The work was excellent, however after the installation I discovered that I had been given very cheap product for the price I was ask to pay. I had solid and steady glass doors on the shower doors they remove. They replaced them with very cheap glass that bent like Plexiglass, I've never seen glass bend and also hung like curtains from the top only, no support on the bottom. When I told them I found the doors to be unacceptable for a senior I was told they would remove them, seal the holes and I could hang showers curtain but still pay for the shower doors they will remove. I was expecting an upgrade, instead I was given hanging glass doors for an outrageous amount. The shower makeover I ordered the salesman called it my dream shower, instead it has become a nightmare for me, I have not used this shower as I'm very afraid of using it as I may accidentally bump against the door and fall through it."

Our customers come first, and we love to make you our prior tie. You will see a prompt reply to all inquiries plus we offer free estimates and competitive pricing. Showroom Location: 532 S. New Rd.

"We’re sharing our experience (photo batch 1/3) to inform future customers about the craftsmanship of KJ Natural Stone. We hired them through our contractor for a kitchen countertop and sink. Before pickup, I personally visited their location, where they showed me the slab they would be using, along with the sink. Unfortunately, the final product did not meet our expectations. Rather than making any claims, we are simply sharing photos of their work and letting them speak for themselves. Be aware that KJ Natural Stone may claim they had no direct business with us since they worked through our contractor. However, that does not change the fact that they were responsible for fabricating and supplying our kitchen countertop and sink. We hope this review helps others make an informed decision."

At some point, your carpet may become wet from a water leak, flooding, or some other unfortunate incident. In order to prevent permanent damage to your carpet and to avoid its complete replacement, your carpet needs to have the water removed and the carpet restored to a clean, healthy state. We offer water damage restoration to facilitate this state. We offer removal of the water from your carpet using our truck-mounted cleaning unit, setup of carpet-drying fans to further aid in water removal, and if necessary, dehumidifier machines to remove moisture that may still be lingering in the carpet and air. Upon drying of the affected carpet and area, we then provide installation of new pad (if removal of old pad was necessary due to damage) and relay and clean your carpet to restore it to its original state prior to the water damage. Please call for more information on water damage cleanup and for pricing: 1-888-416-9925.
