At S&S Floors, we specialize in carpet stretching and repair, restoring carpets to their original appearance and function. Over time, carpets can develop wrinkles, bulges, or ripples due to humidity, poor installation, or normal wear and tear. Not only do these imperfections affect the look of your home, but they also create safety hazards. That’s where our professional carpet stretching service comes in. With 35 years of experience, we ensure smooth, secure, and long-lasting results.
Here’s what you can expect when you choose us for your carpet stretching process
Step 1: Initial Assessment
Every home is different, and so is every carpet. Before we begin, our experts conduct a thorough assessment to identify the cause of the carpet issues. Whether it’s loose carpet, frayed edges, or damage near thresholds, we evaluate the severity of the problem and determine the best approach for repair.
Step 2: Preparing the Area
To ensure an effective stretch, we prepare the workspace by moving furniture and clearing the area. If heavy or built-in furniture is present, we discuss options to work around it while still achieving a tight and even stretch.
Step 3: Power Stretching for a Tight, Smooth Finish
Unlike DIY methods that rely on knee kickers alone, we use professional power stretchers for maximum effectiveness. This tool allows us to stretch the carpet from wall to wall, eliminating ripples and wrinkles completely. By using industry-standard techniques, we create a smooth and secure finish that prevents future loosening.
Step 4: Re-Securing and Trimming
Once the carpet is properly stretched, we reattach it to the tack strips along the perimeter of the room. If necessary, we trim any excess carpet to ensure a seamless fit. This step is crucial in preventing the carpet from shifting again over time.
Step 5: Final Inspection and Cleanup
After the carpet is secured, we perform a final inspection to ensure every wrinkle is gone and the surface is completely smooth. We clean up the workspace and move the furniture back into place, leaving your room looking refreshed and polished.
