How long does carpet stretching take?

For a few standard rooms, it usually takes 1 to 3 hours. We'll give you a clear time estimate when we see the job. We get in, get it done right, and get out.

Do I need to move my furniture?

Yes, the room needs to be completely empty. To properly stretch the carpet, we need clear access from wall to wall. It's the only way to guarantee a good result.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace my carpet?

If the carpet is in otherwise decent shape, repairing it is always cheaper. Stretching and patching can add years to its life for a fraction of the cost of new flooring.

Why Your Carpet Gets Loose

Most of the time, carpet gets ripples because it wasn't installed correctly. The installer might have used a knee kicker instead of a power stretcher, which just doesn't get it tight enough. Over time, with foot traffic, humidity changes, and moving heavy furniture, the carpet relaxes and buckles. It’s a common problem, but it’s one that needs to be fixed properly. Leaving it alone only makes it worse, causing creases that won't come out.

Our Process: We Do It Right

We fix loose carpet with a power stretcher. This isn't a small hand tool; it's a professional machine that braces against the walls and pulls the carpet tight across the entire room. This tension removes the wrinkles for good and prevents new ones from forming. Once it’s tight, we re-tack it to the strips and trim the excess. The result is a flat, safe floor that looks the way it should. This is the only way to get a permanent fix.

More Than Just Stretching

We also handle other common indoor carpet issues. If you have a seam that's coming apart, we can re-seal it. Burns from a dropped iron, stubborn stains, or damage from a pet can often be patched. We take a matching piece of carpet from a remnant or a closet, cut out the damaged section, and fit the new piece in. We also fix or replace the transition strips that hold the carpet edge in doorways. We focus on durable repairs that solve the problem without you needing to buy a whole new floor.

"Rudy and team are friendly, knowledgeable, on time and on budget. He supplied and installed laminate in our basement and capped the stairs with hardwood. We initially called several flooring companies and they did not know what to do with our box stairs, which just had carpet removed. Rudy was the first and only installer who gave details and options for the stairs, and provided valued recommendations. On top of that, he stained the hardwood oak stairs perfectly to match the honey oak colored laminate. We highly recommend his services!"

"I did my floor and learn that the stairs are not included because it is a different kind of job that needed to be done. I start looking for a person or company that can complete the stairs job in a timely manner and cost efficient. I receive many quotes but Rudy’s quote was details and easy to understand. After reviewing all quotes, I decide to give the job to Rudy. A bit scared of what will come out of it, Rudy reassure me that my house was his show room and I will be please when is done. Let me say I am not please but over please. Rudy was efficient, extremely professional. He respected my time line as I was expecting my kids that weekend. I would highly recommend using this company, they are all the things you could ask for in a contractor; polite, neat, reasonably priced and timely. Thank you so much again Rudy for all your great work!"
