Carpet Stretching & Repair in Newcastle

It's a common problem we see all over Newcastle. Over time, even well-installed carpet can develop ripples, waves, or loose areas. This can happen from daily foot traffic, moving furniture, or even changes in humidity. These issues aren't just an eyesore; they can become a serious tripping hazard and cause your carpet to wear out much faster. Instead of thinking about a costly replacement, a professional re-stretching is often the perfect solution to restore the safety and smooth appearance of your flooring. We focus on getting it done right, with attention to every detail.

Our Meticulous Carpet Service

When you call us, you're getting a service that obsesses over the details. A loose carpet isn't fixed with a simple tug. We use professional-grade power stretchers, not just a knee kicker, to achieve a tight, flat finish across the entire room. This tool allows us to apply the correct, even tension required to pull the carpet backing taut, securing it properly to the tack strips along the wall. Once stretched, we carefully trim the excess material for a perfect fit and then securely tuck the edge for a clean, seamless finish that looks like new.

More Than Just Wrinkles

Our repair work goes beyond stretching. We handle a variety of common indoor carpet problems with the same level of precision. Do you have a split seam in a high-traffic hallway? We can re-seal it to be strong and nearly invisible. Accidental damage from a dropped iron or a stubborn stain can often be fixed with a nearly undetectable patch, using a spare piece of carpet from a closet or remnant. We can also address issues at thresholds, ensuring a smooth and secure transition between your carpet and other flooring types like tile or hardwood.

Why Proper Stretching Matters

An improperly installed or loose carpet wears unevenly. The constant flexing of ripples and buckles causes the carpet backing to break down and the fibres to crush prematurely. By restoring the proper tension, we ensure the carpet wears as it was designed to, distributing foot traffic evenly and significantly extending its functional life. It’s a precise job, but taking the time to do it correctly protects your investment and brings back the comfort and safety of your floors.
