Carpet Stretching & Repair in Aurora

It’s frustrating when you see those waves and wrinkles appear in your carpet. Over time, factors like humidity, foot traffic, and even the initial installation can cause your carpet to loosen from the tack strips. This not only looks untidy but can also lead to permanent damage and create a dangerous tripping hazard inside your home. My approach is simple: I fix it right. With a focus on precision and care, I restore your carpet to its original, perfectly flat state, making your room look and feel better instantly.

The Difference is in the Details

There's a right way and a wrong way to stretch a carpet. Simply using a knee kicker might look okay for a week, but it won't last. The wrinkles will come back. I exclusively use a power stretcher, the industry-standard tool for achieving proper, drum-tight tension across the entire room. This method pulls the carpet evenly and secures it firmly, ensuring the fix is permanent. I take the time to work carefully around your baseboards and walls, treating your home with the respect it deserves. It’s not just about removing ripples; it’s about restoring the structural integrity of your flooring with absolute precision.

Our Meticulous Stretching & Repair Process

When I arrive, the first step is always a careful assessment. I look at the layout of the room, the type of carpet, and the severity of the buckling. Furniture is moved with care, not dragged. Then, the power stretcher is positioned to systematically pull the slack out of the carpet, working from the center of the room outwards. Once the carpet is perfectly taut, I trim the excess with a specialized knife for a clean, straight edge. The final, critical step is tucking the carpet back into the tack strip, leaving a seamless finish along the wall. Before I consider the job done, I do a thorough vacuuming of the area. My goal is to leave your room cleaner than when I arrived, with the only evidence of my visit being a perfectly smooth floor.

More Than Just Wrinkles

While stretching is the most common repair, my work doesn't stop there. I also handle other common indoor carpet issues with the same meticulous care. This includes repairing open or frayed seams, patching small areas damaged by burns or persistent stains, and fixing transition strips that have come loose between rooms. Each repair is done with the goal of being as invisible as possible, blending seamlessly with your existing carpet.
